Prestia subbed out 

Another hammy? 

Anyone know anything?

If it wasn't for Dion going down again it would've been the perfect result.

Prestia subbed out 

Another hammy? 

Anyone know anything?

All they are saying it's a soft tissue. So not sure if it's a hammy or a reoccurrence of his calf injury.

Rioli goal 

Rich 19.9-123
Ess  12.12-84

Unbelievable turnaround. We've picked ourselves off the mat after an 8 count for a k.o.

He looks devastated on the bench

[mightytiges]

Won by 39 pts 

[WilliamPowell]

If we come back from this it will be a miracle

It's a miracle!

Not sure how we managed that but I'll take it

[JP Tiger]

They gave us a scare, but how good was our last ten minutes?     

[lamington]

Man my blood pressure can’t take this. Pumped to get the 4 points devastated for prestia. It’s bizarre how the tigers can get absolutely pantsed then play a half of good football and come up winners. It won’t work against melb obviously but happy to bank the wins and fine tune the intensity and concentration as we get deeper into the season

[mightytiges]

Darcy Parish won the medal with 44 possies. Not sure why Dimma didn't tag him but Dimma will probably reply that we won the game.

They might as well have tried RCD as a lock down tagger on parish he may have been effective.

[WilliamPowell]

I thought Balta was our best

Absolute rock down back all night

[mightytiges]

They gave us a scare, but how good was our last ten minutes?     

Incredible last 10 mins but we would've lost tonight if we had been playing a top 4 side. Our best is still brilliant when we get on a roll but our lapses and mistakes during games are substandard and we're also conceding runs of goals. Second week in a row we've conceded 4 goals to start the last quarter before turning it around.

Actually that's a good idea, would be great for his development
