Agree with that MOL.  Haven't seen it sung with less gusto for a long time.

Maybe they relise every 2nd player lions had was 18 years old and it wasn't much of an accomplishment ?

Oh we’re from Tigerland
A fighting fury we’re from Tigerland
In any weather you will see us with a grin
Risking head and skin
If we’re behind
we’ll never mind
we’ll fight and fight and win
oh where from tigerland
we never weaken til the final siren goes
like the tigers of old
we’re strong and we’re bold
oh we’re from tiger
-YELLOW AND BLACK-
oh we’re from tigerland

What's the point - we're not going win a flag in the next year or two and after that they're all going to be shared between GC & GWS for at least a decade which will probably kill the off game anyway.

Should sell the club to Real Madrid and join the A-League.
I reckon Collingwood are readying themselves for the next decade too.
They look young, very quick and they seem to keep unearthing players from late picks in the draft.
All this and unlike us they still are consistent finals contenders. 
I also think that,  unlike us, Collingwood, the hawks and Geelong will probably find a way to keep themselves in the top half even when their stars retire.
I guess we will soon find out if they'll be able to compete with the newbies when they dominate the comp. I'm certain of one thing though.......
.....we will be faithfully fighting for 9th, satisfied with the odd finals appearance every 8-12 years.  :clapping
I agree about Collingwood. They are not afraid to make a tough call on it's players which has helped them get some very good kids into their program over the last couple of years.
 They have some really good young talent running around in their twos. We have nothing really.

Very little positives out of this game. It showed how poor our disposal is and decision making is. Dinky short kicks not hitting targets. Over handpassing. Thought O'Hanlon showed abit and whilst Arnot did not get many possessions his tackle in the third quarter was a ripper. Worsfold on seven questioned whether the loss of Leppa and Campbell impacted on our season this year but most damning for me was Ellis on channel 9 saying he didn't know why things had gone so badly this year. If the club does not know why things went crap this year we are in serious trouble.

Arnot looked good when he was around the ball.  Unfortunately he didn't get to play as the in and under midfielder that he is.  Instead we had the hacks in there butchering the ball and losing the hard ball.

Stopped watching at the end of the third quarter.  Was totally disgusted. We managed to struggle over the line against another bottom team.  Meanwhile Carlton belted St Kilda.  I can't motivate myself to watch that last quarter. The club has delivered a new level of disappointment this year. 

The least they could have done for us after this season was a high draft pick and getting games into the kids.

Chaplin not cited over when he ran into the Brisbane player who had head down?
