Haven't watched the game as yet.  On Chan 10 news they said someone felled Gary Ablett behind play.  Who was it?  A trip for someone to the tribunal?

julz, abletts cousin shane tuck just gave him some cousinly love, it should be all clear , if it  goes to the tribunual its rubbish

Let's hope so X. Ablett was able to run down the ground and mark 15 seconds later so he couldn't have been hit that bad. Tuck also has a good record which should help him.

 ;D I've always thought G Ablett jr is the closest thing to Kevin Bartlett I've seen as a player. Opposition supporters used to wish grievous bodily harm on him as well. Ball player, absolute star.

no , he is stronger and harder than kb, he never drops the ball in frontof him and wave around like a w@anker trying to cheat for soft frees. he just has an uncanny knack to shrig off tackles. gotta give the pr!ick credit , he was their best player

bartlett = lloyd, bothe fake 4 frees and act

In a interview after that game TW was asked why he swung Richo down back towards the end of the third quater so when we went forward we had nothing to kick too.

His answer

He didn't, It was all Richo's idea and that they were trying to get him to resume his normal position.   :banghead

Please Richo   DONT GO DOWN BACK. I am getting older and don't think my heart can stand it.

Great game by the boys anyway  :thumbsup :gotigers

The next time they put one of those GPS things on Richo they need a little zapper that goes off if he crosses the centre line lol. Get the hell out of there big fella  :-\.

ps. KB - 5 times premiership player; Ablett 0  ;)

Id almost drop him for it. Richo doesnt run the club and he doesnt make the moves, as I said Id almost drop him for it and give Clever another go.

I reckon they wil have a look at it and Tuck may get sited for being a dill  ::)

The way he went to ground Ablett staged for a freekick. When the unoires ignored him he jumped up and sprinted through the centre of the ground.

Actually if it wasn't for Jnr Ablett the Cats wouldn't have been in the game at half time. He was their best by the length of Skilled Stadium.

What a great game by the Tigers all round. One of the few luxuries of living interstate was the full live telecast! :thumbsup
LMAO@ the cats supporters interviewed as they were walking into the ground saying If the cats lose today, they'll tear up their tickets. Another guy said their problem is their forwards can't kick straight (he got that right!). Ahh the parallels to us back in the Frawley days are unmistakable. Watch out Bomber, Spud is looking for a plow partner. The big Donut had a shocker again. :wallywink Talk about going AWOL after his only goal. I think his heart was left on that star post. I guess it's a bit hard to run with pockets full of cash and no ticker.  :lol

Special mentions to Tambo & Petts! Great effort boys. :thumbsup

Was great after the game with the Tiger Army not stopping singing for about half an hour  :thumbsup

I was just in front of them during the game - Good value. A few catters got a bit catty though - Tuff

My first win at the cattery - What a feeling TOYOTA

NB - Richmond should NEVER play at that frawleyen geischole EVER again - What a frawleyen disgrace.

You might get your wish - if the rumours are true, he's out for six  :'(
Shame, because he was in line for his first B&F.
Congratulations Richo for playing out the game with injury  :thumbsup

I didnt question his courage, i just questioned the fact that he moved himself and the coach new nothing about it and wallace then had to try and get him back forward. nevertheless richo showed courage by staying out and he'll be missed in the next 6 weeks.

The last few weeks he's been sent down back in the final 10 minutes of quarters of different games. I think it always been pre-planned. This time round the big bloke took it on himself to head down back. It isn't the first time the leaders of the team have made move themselves. Remember the Brisbane game - Joel and Patrick Bowden conceeding behinds - that wasn't a directive of the coach that was done by the players. I would look at this the same way - I actually didn't see it as a big deal.

At least Richo tries to something and shows some passion unlike another big bloke who was playing for the opposition  :rollin :rollin
