Take the 4 points and move on. Not much to take out of a game spoiled by the umps :thumbsdown. Lambert & Lynch costly injuries heading into games against fellow top 8 sides.

Arguably George & Ross' best games for the year.

People on this site know I HATE umpire bashing

But tonight is the worst I’ve ever seen .. bordered on cheating

I also have to admit that over the past months I’ve increasingly shaken my head in bemusement at the decisions of the umpires . The AFL better be careful because they are going to lose the fan base

If we have no Lynch next week and no Balta to swing forward who the hell plays key forward with Jack? Or do we just go 2017 midget again?

Jack, Dusty, Bolton, MRJ, George ugh and who else?

Don't think we'll be beating Sydney personally.

Throw Gibcus forward and bring Miller in

Or go with Miller forward

was thinking soldo goes it alone in the ruck with a grigg clone.

Throw Nank forward.

Its a small ground we can do it. We need to find a tall and fast. Losing those 2 i knew would come back and bite us

Yeah the loss of CCJ and chol will shine through

CCJ can’t even get a game at the kangas. That tells you all you need to know about how he’s going. So far it’s looking like we won that trade big time.

Soldo did some nice leading tonight.

Not opposed to Gibcus going forward either myself.

Tarrant was solid tonight. Him + Grimes + Miller down back should be OK. Gibcus a good mark and kick.

They’re better than nothing ! Which is precisely what we have

Did anyone else have trouble telling the two teams apart? Both strips were very dark.

Not me- the white shorts were enough to distinguish the two.

Had to look at the shorts but otherwise not too bad.

If they wore a reverse guernsey (red with black stripe, white shorts) I think it would have been better.

Have to make a makeshift forward around Jack.Soldo and Nank there at times or bring Miller in move Gibcus.I think Cumberland could be a chance.

When we get a Tiger Museum room back-up and running, I'm making sure this is going on the wall. Astonishing.( Michael Klein)
