Great day for me yesterday, my wife gave birth to our first, tiges beat the pies, had $50 on us at $3.
I thought Hampson was awesome, loved when he touched Trelors shot on goal in the last, game winning effort.
Bad luck Trelor. Andrew Moore was good 20 possies, used the ball well, tackled all nite good inclusion.
Rioli and Markov are growing every week..
No changes for Geelong Thanks..
Well done. Put your names on the MCC list. If not for footy, the cricket.
 
...The only thing different from last week so far as I could tell was last week the arc was more defensive so we would kick backwards rather than arcing forwards (if that makes sense).It is a game plan that demands excellent disposal of the ball by foot. Collingwood struggled to counter it. In contrast to Gws who applied more pressure and ended up with free possession in the corridor. Actually it says a lot about Collingwood. They were way worse than I expected. I'm interested to see how it goes against Geelong. My fear is against a better team it will fall apart but a win is a win.

Hampson was excellent. Played like he did at Carlton that time when he clunked all those marks against us.

Varcoe is a soft ****; we would call out kids trying to mark like that in junior footy. Soft.

Cox doesn't know where to position himself and dare I say it, Griffiths didn't either. Maybe it's coming back or having the helmet but he was a bit all at sea. Conversely, Vickery (as others have said) is good when he gets a clear lead at the ball. I would not trade him on the back of last night's game.

Liked the look of the kids.

Thanks for your take on the game style tigerdan ...agree about the lack of pressure from the filth which let
us play the game on our terms...like GWS, the pussies will apply truckloads of pressure. Let's see how we adapt the game plan in preparation

Him and Short are off to a flying start. They play with balls and flair - something a lot of our 'better' players lack.
To be fair I think the young players have been let off the leash and have been told to play on instinct and flair as opposed to the heavily structured game that others have in the past been restricted by.

Does this see us going forward investing in a game plan based on instinctive flair?

I think there are some on our current list that would have wished for that from ground zero.

I think the easiest route is the juxtaposition of Clarkson's Hawks.

Complex game plan v just get out and play your best footy.

Jack was impressed with the younger guys but loved his spray at Ellis in the last quarter.

Spray from Jack was directed at Lloyd, not Ellis.

If you replay it carefully you can hear "Lloydy, f******* handball!!!"

(Lloyd too a pot shot at goalsfrom the boundary that centred it to the Ellis contest. Riewoldt was about 2m away from Lloyd shake he kicked it - fwiw, Lloyd made the right call as there was a guy right on Riewoldt's tale)
 
I think that Marcon definitely showed promis to be something special. We should keep him in the team for the rest of the year and he might even be a first choice next year.
Marcon or Markov?

Good win boys.

How poor are the Pies. And how much have we shot this season.

After the game heard BEllis being interviewed. He said Dimmas wants us to play the 'tough Tiger way'. Commentators laughed a bit at that as we don't pay tough - did today though. I'd agree, we don't play tough mostly. has Dimma changed his mind on how we should play? Hope so. Attack the ball, man and game.
 
I think next week against the cats we should go with out most defensive & physical team. We know they are going to come at us looking for percentage, so we should prepare to make life as difficult as possible for them.
