Our low tackling stats

[yellowandback]

4 in a q where you are chasing tail is simply unacceptable and shows a carltonesque down hill skiing type of effort.

And we all know what happens to down hill skiers.

Yea im concerned about it, might open up for vlas

[Chuck17]

Maybe we might get some focus on a couple of the soft downhill skiers we traded into the club

We're still last for tackles in the AFL with 51.5 per game (AFL avg. 61).

Dusty is our most efficient tackler with 70% of his tackles sticking.

Another low tackling game and we paid dearly .


The Bombers, who won the midfield battles convincingly, out-tackled the Tigers 60-49, despite winning more of the football.

Grigg how many tackles?
Nahas?
How many times did I see Jobe break through a tackle?
We have too many downhill skiers.

What a surprise tb, intensity was lacking, so u just cant flick a switch and go bang?? This is no surprise, weve been lacking in this area all season bar 1 or 2 games. People can have a go at MrTigra but hes spot on its a big problem

Why thankyou TM. 
It's nice to know I'm finally correct about something. 

Yes it's a very very serious issue. Too soft, too scared and weak as pee.

[Hellenic Tiger]

Boys 5 yrs ago we were lamenting the fact we had all these flankers who couldn't kick and couldn't tackle. De Ja vu anyone. Issues remain albeit with different names.
We have gone backwards from this time last year even though we have won more games.

Agree tucker and your sig is currently making me squirm thanks to the lack of ambition by the tigers
