Autopsy Roast & Toast v WCE & Changes For North Melbourne

[GoTigers2015]

Nothing beats West Coast salt

 

[shaky]

Those bagging Miller, what did he actually do, aside from getting caught once holding the ball, to get dropped?

That's all some poster need to maintain a set position on a player.
There seems to be some that aren't satisfied unless we have a team of 22 A graders, regardless of being in a rebuild.

Brown ran like the wind….reckon he covered 50 m in 4 seconds

almost felt sorry for the egirl kid….but didn’t

 

[Waca Jr]

Sims looks to have something and Trainor just keeps getting better every week.

 

[Nostradumbass]

Add to all that the speed and class of Judson who is just waiting in the wings to return..
Our list and team is taking shape,slowly but surely

Forgot about him

Take note Sicily, no unnecessary carry on after the rundown.

 

[Bojangles17]

easiest decision of the week

Dow out
Smillie in

Lets give Alger a crack over green too

Yea I think we ve seen enough of green , he shouldn’t be holding out any other options

 

[captain cotch 9]

Disappointing game from Hugo IMO...Was far to soft when tackling.

He had a couple of good moments with plenty of dash , needs to win more of the ball 10-12 p from a winger not enough

 

[GoTigers2015]

you call that salt?

have a look at our very own umpiring thread

The frees were even(22 to 23), so yes.

West Coast fans were whingeing about the non-call when Nank kicked the ball and it bounced out of bounds.
Would have harsh to pay that given the ball bounced sideways

Nothing beats West Coast salt

But the eagles had more frees

How many holding-the-ball decisions against us when we had the ball for a millisecond. Pushes in the back were not paid, but they had about 3.

Bottom line, the Eagles were a little undisciplined, and we missed some easy shots. Ohh, we led at every change and deserved the win.

The expected score was slightly higher than the game margin. Had Richmond winning by 8 points, which indicates Richmond missed more gettable shots at goal.

Norf starting very comfortable favourites with the bookies

Haven't won at the MCG for 8 years.

Excellent news. Seems like a team that has the mental capacity to handle being favourites given their exceptional late game performances and ability to lose winnable games the last 3 weeks.

agree..
also loved the way we had 3 boys who got around Brown to give him his well deserved pat on the back.
celebrating team mates hard work is classy and team bonding.

We need to find a Watson type, free kick merchant to take advantage of our competitive talls.

oxymoron

free kick merchant and tiger in the same post

 

[Freddy Swift]

What a great Mother’s Day I had. The Tigers win and Geelong lose. What more could I ask for?

Fantastic tackle by Brown, absolute game-saver.

I don’t know why some posters don’t seem to like Mansell but you can’t fault his efforts plus he’s got a bit of mongrel which I really like.

Seth Campbell has become my favourite player. Just love him.

our is justified , we have years of evidence

 

[copthat]

They wouldn’t do it but I would go:

Out: Tresize
In: Short

Short to replace Green, Green to sub. Leave the backline as is.

Then eventually, hopefully form warrants:

Out: Short, Dow
In: Alger, Smillie

Tresize, MRJ, Dow, Short, Smith, Clarke, Sonsie trying to get in on form or injuries.

Clarke would be great to see back in but not sure how they are managing him. If he’s right to go then in for KMac on the wing.

We’ll never be within cooee of a flag if Hopper’s our best player

RFC will be lucky to play a final with him in the side let alone win one by 2028,hes no shocker but hes not shane tuck let alone Deledio in these trying but bright times,he has a role and hes plying it well n thats to shoulder the brutality of congestion on behalf of the youngsters but for a #7 daft pick back in 2015 he lacks brilliance and match swinging ability,not knocking him,has a go but at some stage when your a #7 you should be dominating a handful of games every season,lets hope its ahead of him,ive a feeling most is behind him too,the contract unfortunately is 2 years too long

ok lets go down this alley,lets compare Deledio n Hopper,lids club bnf ,#1 pick,silky sublime matchwinner and we moved him on n bought in Prestia,so i dont see what the issue is with moving on Hopper after next season,even this year if we can get a buyer,so what if he wins the BnF ?,lids was a # 1 bnf winning matchwinner

The Round 9 debrief!

 

[clark1980]

don't think it will start this weekend vs nth but will in coming weeks. giving faull and Trainor a week off etc. they have already given lalor one. it's a long season for young bodies. plus match committee will be wanting to get games into some others on the list. balta will give grey/blight a few games. also probably want to get games into smilie, Alger + Clarke. also le fau, hotton and Armstrong when available (maybe gibcus, hope so). just goes to show the development in brown, Campbell, banks once they get closer to 50 games. and the brilliant thing is we will get 2 top picks this year and a couple others thru father/son, academy.

was at the game yesterday and it felt (without watching the replay) that the result wasn't the most important thing for the coaches b/c at times they really let some of the youngsters take responsibility and for the most part they did really well. it's not something they could do vs the stronger teams but was good to see and will probably see some more this weekend.

We sure are winning a lot of games for a winless season

Moose, had a couple of announcement supporter goals that would constitute improvement:

Win more games that 2024 season
Left to go:
Improvement in Win / Loss percentage from 2024 by around 5%
A win over a top 8 side... If Dimmas Suntanned make it, it's a tick. I think there is scope for one more top eight scalp though.


Looks like we are well on the way as a rebuilding list.
