 we have a positive win ratio after playing  and losing to essendon  geelong freo and collingwood  there is no shame in losing to these sides at the moment considering how bad we are rebounding off half back

Typical comment from you.

So wrong its ridiculous.

Lose tomorrow and we are 5-5.

12-10 slim chance of finals and 13-9 will get you in.

Adelaide-Dogs-Saints-North-GC coming out of the bye.

Win 4 of those and we are on track. Even if we won 3 of those we wouldnt be gone completely.

We were 6-2 in Spuds 4th season. Round 9 trip to Perth to play West Coast. 53 point hammering.
Finished the year 7-15.

We are 5-4 currently in Dimma's 4th year. Could get ugly tomorrow. Long nights usually are. :help

Adelaide will start strong favorites against us and if they play as they have the last few weeks will beat us.
Dogs game will be a Richmond Win
Saints game will be a Richmond Win
North Melbourne will beat us. Even when they are completely poo they still find a way to beat us.
Gold Coast is a 50/50 game at the moment.

Remember my words Ramps we will drop one of the Dogs or Saints probably the Dogs at Etihad if we don't change our attitude and our team selections and get back to the mantra of Dimma in his first few years rather than the desperation of trying to sneak into 8th.

All it takes is a side like the Dogs who have played crap for most of the year to get their tails up and a Morris, Griffen, Gia and co who have beaten us regularly in the recent past to fire up against some of our lesser types who struggle anyway but get selected and then you'll see the heat turned up especially when 9 weeks earlier we beat them by 11 goals and should have been plenty more.
We are always a candidate for the upset loss. At Etihad. Should win but a danger game.
Keep dishing up this slop and we may be in real trouble come Gold Coast in Cairns.

And the Eagles's record this season is so much better.   :lol  Actually, it's worse.  They haven't beaten a side in the 8 yet - at least we beat Carlton.

We ain't in the 8 atm Smokey so it looks like the Eagles might do us.

We have been in the 8 a number of weeks this year and the Eagles have been outside the8 a number of weeks  ;D

Classic 8 pointer tonight, we go to 7th - get it done Tigers

If this thread came out 12 months ago I too would be saying c'mon guys have a little faith.

Last year we could hang our hat on the fact we pushed all the good teams. Can't say that this year.

Saw no evidence last week that would indicate we are finals bound.

Of course I'm hoping we can conjour something special tonight however if we do go down ...GO DOWN SWINGING .

The negativity is towards the way we are playing or lack there of the way we are capable of playing, it has nothing to do with the 5-4 result, that is irrelevant. If anything your thread title should be "Why are Tigers playing with so much Negativity??"

I'm just about off if we lose. Yep. Form is pooe. Selection is pooe. A loss and well be 5-5 with poot form. That's assuming the type of losses continue.

I could almost handle a freo type loss. But I'm bracing myself for a reaming :(

The last few weeks or so don't bode well. I don't think anyone will admit they do. Here comes the tipping point.

Teams form tends to change every 6-8 weeks so here's hoping  :pray

While some of it is OTT, the negativity is directed towards how we are playing this year rather than wins/losses. There was an expectation we would see more of our 2012 four quarter efforts against Hawthorn & Sydney this year than the consistently inconsistent efforts we've seen during virtually every game this year. We haven't hit our straps all year and apart from the Doggies game we've struggled to put more than a half of decent footy together each and every week. For mine injuries have played their part as well as the drop in form of some of our better 2nd tier types from last year. Our best 22 is capable of getting us into the top 8 but with half a dozen injuries our depth is being tested and it isn't standing up.

It's not just the win but the quality of the win that was most pleasing especially after quarter-time. Best team performance of the year by far. Now that the standard has been set we need to keep it up after the bye.
