Bring it Out
« on: May 17, 2014, 07:49:31 PM »
Bring out the Sherman.....TANK.

I couldn't give a stuff if we don't win another game for the rest of the year so let's start the Sherman up and tank.

It's the only way we will ever move forward, Melbourne have just demonstrated that over the past two weeks.

Yeah and if we got caught, I'm sure we'd cop the same feather duster flogging that ended up a reward from the AFL that Melbourne received.

Our bigger need is to get rid of the awful dead wood we have picked up. Pick 1 or Pick 10 we need to get rid of this stupid theory of 'depth' before developing quality players .
Go Tigers!

After next weeks loss to GWS we will still be sitting second bottom, I cant see us finishing last as the Lions have that spot sewn up.

We must ensure that from this point on we maintain our current ladder position, it's really the only way forward. Unfortunately I don't think we have a choice with our ladder position anyway, we are not good enough to beat anyone above us so it will work out perfectly, well done to the RFC.

If however we get close to beating someone above us in any game I think we should move S.Edwards into the center, Rance to FF, Jack into the ruck, Cotchin to FB and we should have Chaplin or Hampson as taggers...

This should guarantee our current spot on the ladder.  ;D

Before you embrace tanking..look at the Dees .In the space of 8 games they have gone from being the worst team in 20 years to being more than competitive.So its not all about draft picks ,attitude is as important if not more

Or just keep playing Grigg and Hammer and the rest will take care of itself.  :whistle :whistle

They also topped up for some immediate results.

Cross, Vince etc

And a fit Dawes has actually been enormous, and credit to him.

C'mon Tiges, lets get the tank in gear. Then we can work on a new coach.

But we need the picks next year, get it out and start it!!!!

Perfect opportunity to tank without arousing any suspicion.....just need to keep playing the same players in the same positions....

We currently sit 13th out of 18 on the live ladder, this is not good enough, we simply cant afford to finish this high up the ladder, we must aim to finish lower than this. All the teams below us are better than us, they have better coaches and they have better youth. We will lose the next 3 without a drama so that will help us out, I just hope the clubs below us start wining more, they only have to win one or two and we will hit the bottom, just where we need and deserve to be!!
