Cheer up GR. We simply ran out of juice with a young side. The umps helped North get back in it too ::). Remember we didn't have Foley, Cuz or Cotch in the midfield yet for a half we spanked them out of the centre and should have been 10 goals up at half-time. I was more worried going into the game we'd get beaten comfortably today with no Foley, Cuz or Cotch out.

Cuz & Cotch yep a massive difference ... Foley er.... NOPE. Don't think he would have made much difference at all  :P

At the game currently on the Laptop.

Had to get on here:

Umpiring has been worst I've ever seen. Finally just got a free for Silvester against Hale.

<bronx cheers>

Good first half, we're over possessing the ball a bit. Stick to our new ways and just attack long attack long.


you take a computer to the footy?
doesn't everybody!!!

I am totally gutted by what i see happening! This is a disgrace and so are those who want us to lose! We will never get rid of this loser mentality!

im sure if you see a Tom Scully running around in the yellow and black you wont be thinking about a meaningless draw against North.

Yep I am going to look forward to a Tom Scully running around for the Tigers and Tigers losing, then putting up with people on here sooking about we never win and then say in 2 years people calling for a coach to be sacked and a tank fest again because we need to re-build

Yep I am really looking forward to that - should be sensational  :thumbsup


Even simple people can see that if we get the right coach in and he stickes to playing the kids, get some luck on draft day and we get better at developing our young stars, things will turn around at our club and we will be a force again. Get these things right and the 'winning culture' will take care of itself.
It's looks to me that you are the one on here SOOKING!
And just on the re-build, i'm not really sure if we are trying it again, i don't think we ever really went down that road properly with TW. Picking only a few kids in each of the drafts while he was there. We have a chance to pick up 6-7-or even 8 young players to our club in this years draft. Not all will make it but out of those 8 maybe 2 or 3 will be 100/200 game playes. Do the same for the next few years and that will be a re-build.
I only hope you stiill care enough to be watching WP. Chin up!

WP, i'm not really sure why you are so upset??  As you have said on here before, you are against tanking and that's fine but do you think we are tanking? I don't, i think we are playing more kids and actually playing better but still loosing. The facts are we just aint that good. We need a bit of luck with selecting our next coach and even though you don't agree, we need a really early pick and the priority pick.  :thumbsup

Yep agree with BT and Bentleigh on this.

Get the game time into the kids, a few good draft picks and while I have written off 2010 maybe 2011 onwards with a young team maturing can mean some sustained winning times.
