To be honest I dont think we will win a flag for a long long time. Its looking pretty bleak I reckon. The club has got serious problems that they themselves dont recognise. I reckon anyone over 50 right now is in trouble in terms of seeing us win a flag. We have been crap for 34 years whats to say they wont still be crap in another 34 years from now. Save your kids let them barrack for someone else.

Absolutely ridiculous.

Sad thing is it's probably true.

"ANOTHER"

Ramps spare the supporters who have seen 2 finals wins in their lives let alone a premiership.
Go Tigers!

Not until we get all bases right. We have the facilities and the money. We just don't have the coaches

We are in the fugoid  cycle it just keeps repeating spanning 6-12 years.

Call rebuild.
Draft some great kids.
Watch some beltings but see some improvement.
Stick the course.
Start trading win a few more games but development though slowing still continue.
Attempt to address needs.
Make a token finals appearance but get eliminated in a galling way.
Club keen on keeping faith.
Early next season you realise token finals the year before.
Coach stubbornly thinks club can turn it around.
Trade draft picks for bottles that provide 5cents if deposited in South Australia.
Coach accepts fate that he has failed after some horrible losses resigns so it seems we aren't sacking our own.
New coach comes in fresh input and ideas and pledges to rebuild list to the full degree.
Cycle starts over again.
See you back in the top 8 again boys in 2021.

AFL will be dead in 20 years anyway - jump on Melbourne Heart, they'll see plenty of success thanks to Machester City and the Shieks millions.
Go Tigers!
