Thanks for the Ammo Ty

[Tigerland]

Article in the "HUN" Matthew Lloyd being made a life member at the Bummers and there was a little quote in his acceptence speech that i thought all tiger fans should have a look at .

" You speak to people like Ty Zantuck who have come from Richmond and it just makes you appreciate playing for such a proud club " Quote , unquote

Lloyd is a champion footballer and no doubt a nice guy - but you just have to listen to the guy to discover that he is no intellectual giant.
He obviously likes to try and take the ******** out of richmond like his Coach Sheeds. Water off a ducks back really. I mean the guy throws grass up in the air to see which way the wind is blowing in telstra dome. Between him and Ty they'd be lucky to break double figures in the IQ stakes.

If Ty can bag Richmond and his ex-teammates, then he will do the same to Llloyd and co in a few more years.

I'm not sure who is more the fool, Ty for showing himself to be a weasel as his first act at Essendon, or Lloyd for not seeing that if Ty can bag one group, he can bag the next just as easily.

cmon weaver, wake up ol son...we're all fundamental, right wing, fanatical punt rd extremists......these comments hurt like a sword through the heart....in particular from a lightweight that neither had the guts nor gumption to rise to the challenges of league football...deflecting his own incompetence by dispariging the mighty RFC......I wouldn't worry to much about young Ty , I expect his league career to last about as long as an Australian Idol hit single.....the clock has started

It is about winning football matches. Anything else is just macho grand standing and counts for nothing.

Essendon? That's an airport isn't?

As for Zantuck, why would you use him as a motivational tool.

...

You are 100% spot on. Zantuck isn't a motivational[\i] tool.

Nope, he is just a plain old tool!

Hey while ill agree Lloyd's no rocket scientist. The grass things obviously just routine (one that appears to work quite well). Notice most of the time he doesnt even look where the grass goes.

I wouldnt really call it a dig at Richmond, but hey, if you guys would like your players to turn even more of their attention off the game and trying to improve, then expect some more dark years ahead.

Ill admit that i dont mind Richmond, but the whole Zantuck things just gone way too far on here. Really is a dead off-season.

Richmond supporters are happy hes gone
Essendon supporters (most of them) are happy we picked him up.

Dont let one persons comments get to you so much.

However just curious, who would you expect to clean Lloydy up if it was going to happen?

 

[EssendonPride]

However on second thoughts, you dont see Retired/Ex Essendon players attacking the club or massive board fights as the tigers seem to be having.

May have been referring to that?

One of the goal umpires.


How much do you reckon we'd have to pay to get one of those fellas motivated?
