v Melbourne, Friday, 7.40pm, MCG

Tiger players have been warned against complacency after their win against premiership runner-up Collingwood last week. "If the players play with the same intensity and aggression, well, they should go all right. But if they don't - and they're off their guard at all - then the opposition, no matter who it is, will come out and make them look a bit silly," football operations manager Greg Hutchison told the club's website.

Melbourne coach Neale Daniher said he would give players another chance after their disappointing round-one loss against Hawthorn at the MCG. The Demons had a strong pre-season and will need to repeat that form to overcome the Tigers tomorrow. Daniher will need to add at least one player, with Daniel Ward rubbed out for three weeks on a rough-play charge by the AFL Tribunal.

After the last two seasons we've had, if they even have to mention the word complacency after only one win its a problem.

The again, I guess it's just one of those cliches that gets trotted out in these 'club news' stories.

This is the type of game in the past we would unexpectedly drop. Last year we just scraped home against the Dees after a good win against the bombers the week before. On paper and at full strength we look far too good for Melbourne but that will mean nothing if the intensity and teamwork of last week is missing.

Carn the Tiges! :)
