First time...

[Grockadoc]

i have had my days where i watch the mighty tigers play, and just think to myself 'OH NO NOT AGAIN'. I watch us getting flogged and yet i watch, hoping for a sign that will lift the curtain of depression that surrounds the club. On many occasions i have found that. Take a llok at rance on the weekend. not very effective disposal, but will put his body on the line. We as supporters have criticised player with superb disposal for not being hard at it. And we criticise people hard at it for not having good disposal.

I dont care about scores, i dont care about headlines, i dont care about rumours. I just care about the tigers, and always will. I went to the Geelong v Richmond game in 2007. My friends were tigers supporters, and they were with me. They left at quater time. I stayed, and watched teh game with my whole family, each and every one of them geelong supporters. I copped heavy verbal assaults from people on the train, ppeople in my street, my school, my town, and yet i am still a richmond supporter.

I am sticking with them through tough times sante, i urge you to do the same. Get along to the game, lord knows we gonna need all the support we can muster

"Forgot to book tickets ..."

LMAO

Battling to be 20,000 punters there

Soft

Why should I pay to go when if I'd remebered to ring the club, I would have got in free. Work commitments also don't help.

I haven't given up, just don't feel the need to go when I won't even be cheering the team who seem to have better things to worry about then winning football.

He aint alone.

How many people on this board will be making up the empty seats around our games as the season progresses.

Im rethinking going to the Essendon game. Some people are just fed up.

not me, no pain no bryce Mcgain

 

[CQTiger]

another one off the bandwagon. I can understand your way of thinking but I personally wouldn't miss them if they played only 1 or 2 games in my state no matter how bad they are so I guess I will make the trek to Cararra

What!?! You're missing the midfield lineup we've all been waiting to see POSSIBLY (not finalised just yet) in action:

Deledio; Foley; Tuck; Cousins; Cotchin; Coughlan

AND I might add with Tambling and White playing bloody good footy (now if only a few of those names up there could up their output too).

Booyah!

Sure, we're all disillusioned by this season's craphouse form, but pull it together, man. You've stuck with them this long and it's no different to 2007. If nothing else, just go to catch up with the cheer squad, the grog squad and to have a few beers.

But you know, don't listen to me - I travelled to Melbourne to see the Tigers play this year (against North haha!), I went to see them play Sydney (where they DID play some good footy despite the loss) and I've tipped them once again this week (only because they've named the Cotch, Morton and Brown really).

Game on, I say.

 

[Grin]

I live near Port and on the same street as a current board and and ex board member.

I sure as hell will be there with bells on and then at an after game, beer with my Port Adelaide neighbors either getting ribbed or doing some ribbing.

Can't wait and neither can my kids.

Win or lose, it's a Tigers/Port game and we'll have fun as always

As usual I expect to see a good proportion of Tigers at the game.
It always surprises me how much opposition supporters appreciate our loyalty (although I wish they would hate us rather than feel sorry for us)
Perhaps they will hate us after Sunday.

Gooooo Tigers

There are no excuses for Adelaide based Tiger Supporters not to be there cheering you beloved club against the Power at 12.40pm on Sunday. Even if you decide to go (last minute), there's no drama finding good seats. Win, lose or draw will not be an issue when they are only playing once at AAMI in '09. Who knows, it could spell the end for one TW!!!

I'll be there as well, flying over 2 weeks in a row. Must just be me but being part of this club is in my blood and I want to go. I will moan, berate, swear and most likely walk out disapointed but there is something about making that walk up from Punt Road surrounded by lots of other Tigerheads that lifts me every time. Somehow makes me more determined, weird I know. Still get the same rush after 40 years. Whether I end up in the Grog Squad singing my lungs out or in the Cricketers crying into my beer, its all part of it for me. I think that right now there is no better place to be than around other Tiger supporters, beats the shit out of sitting at home depressed all by yourself.

You've got battered woman's syndrome. You should have yourself checked out.

 

[sante]

The problem is, the supporters think they're bigger than the club.

 

[tony_montana]

I live in Adelaide and I'm not going.

Only because of illness not because I think we're gonna get thumped..

hope its nothing serious chief
