******* yeesss, hate the 4.40pm interstate games, missed most of the 2nd and 3rd qtrs. with getting dinner ready then serving it up, then was too nervous to watch half the last, got the last 10 minutes so I'm happy, will watch the replay tomorrow, in the 8 and a lot of media folk will be dirty.

Hinkley is Hardwick's bitch really.

 

[OhDustinMartin]

Best players for Port: Chaplin.

 

[carvel]

Great game boys

 

[Spagman]

scrappy game, but probably had to be to shut their midfield down. Go Tigers!

 

[Conca Truck]

This man, what a legend.

 

[mcuzzy]

Jack b.o.g
Grigg not far behind, was sensational today, won a heap of contested footy and fed it out to our A graders.

Agree

3. Pup 2. Lids 1. Grigg

Ellis tempting due to how much of the footy he had, but was very wasteful and won the ball due to no tag and making the most of his open space.

 

[tora tora tora]

I didnt catch much of the game..

How did Menadue & C Ellis go?

 

[OhDustinMartin]

It's the clash jumper. It gives normal footballers incredible strength

 

[Tony Harrison]

-5 clearances
-10 inside 50s
-30 hitouts

Lift ya game Hardwick

 

[jaguaress]

Good job tigers, looking forward to next weeks game

 

[thefendoff]

Dusty killed it in that last quarter, definitely improved his fitness running out games really well now

 

[Hate]

Outstanding game. Carn Tiges

I thought it was brilliant to be able to withstand the Port charge throughout the third quarter, where most games are won and lost. Stood strong throughout and even though a goalless quarter isn't ideal it was a good effort from the boys.

One of those muppet commentators made a point on how we executed the plan, and I agree for once. I've always believed it's just been our skills and basics of footy that have cost us games this season and not a lack of plan a or b but I think tonight we were far better than our previous games and it really showed. A few small errors here and there, but all in all a well played game.

Menadue is a pressure machine. CEllis is slick.

 

[DontArgue4]

I can get used to this manic pressure we are showing, keep it up tiges!!

Great bloody win, Jack and Dusty were immense, the backline were amazing also.

Loving the overall pressure from the boys, just great to watch

 

[AJ Green]

Good win. Now to spoil Fletchers milestone next week

 

[TJTIGER]

ABC guys going on about how we did it with quite a bit of inexperince on our list. How much of a Beast Milesey was only 30 odd games...

How both coaches put the heat on their teams but how the Tigers stood up !!!! 6th win from our last 8 trips to SA.....

 

[OhDustinMartin]

Jack best on, Ellis, Grigg, Lids, Marto next up

We exist to stuff up milestones.

 

[Tiger Toffee]

Where the * is our song you pricks

 

[Sol23]

Good win by the boys
Hope back it up against the Dons

 

[TJTIGER]

The last time they scored 43 points before we scored, today they score just 43......

 

[Rumballs]

Dimma talks about steely resolve. First time I can remember the team showing it all game.
Strange.
Felt weirdly confident that the defence would hold up.
Very encouraging.
You went from 3 strikes back to 2 Dimma.
