Intetresting article from the AFL website, it's a pretty good summary of everything that's happened with the club over the last 30 years, also love how candid Benny Gale is, doesn't shy away from anything.

"We're here to be the best. That is not to say we're guaranteed to be the best, it's to say we have the socks to pull up if we get the right people, right plan and make the right decisions at the right times," the 42-year-old Gale said.

Just finished reading the whole thing, I must say that it really opened up my eyes into how broken and fractured the club was, I was born in 87 so I wasn't aware of how bad things were back then.

Same boat here, born in 1988 so hearing about how loads of little failures have accumulated into us being one big failure. It's a good history lesson.

being old enough to remember Bartlett winning you a Flag and you beating us when we could have had 4 flags instead of 1 and then two more .... grrr I remember what a strong TIGERS team was like.

Its funny because I miss the tigers fans in full voice, but once that happens again will be sure to wish you back to the bottom of the ladder ... haha.

Having read the article I can say it was an excellent piece and chronicles exactly what happened and the small mistakes here and there which just turned your proud club into a debacle.

I am really impressed with the resolve this time round and the ability of the club to say here are the mistakes of the past lets not repeat them, move forward and get successful again.

The $2.3m already raised is proof that there are a lot of Tiger's fans out there prepared to put their money where their mouth is.

I personally wish you all the best as when we were kings we provided the VFL some awesomely good footy!

You were only the pretenders to that throne!...:p...
