That's what we were told, that's what Wallace's graph to the media showed 1 week before the season. So what happened to make us 0-7 and getting pasted????!

now we are accepting of anything less than a 10 goal loss.

Can any of you pro-Wallace supporters explain to me why our ship has changed course so quickly???!
 
and melb were meant to be challenging for a top 4 spot let alone top 8.....

Actually Wallace's pre season presentation to the media predicted another 9th placed finish but lets not let facts spoil a troll.

do you understand what the word "challenge" means?? Ninth is challenging...
Actually 9th is missing out again. Not challenging at all. Last year we were 9th and missed the finals by about 4 games when you take into account the poor % we had. That is not challenging it is just masking the truth. Richmond were not as good as we thought they were, the truth has been exposed and now Wallace has 2 1/2 years to turn it around.
 
the problem with most of you is that you can't handle the truth...

and for anyone questioning my allegiances, I've been around a lot longer than most of you and seen the glory days when we were true Tigers not the phoneys of today.

I said challenging for the finals, not the Premiership. 9th is challenging for the final 8.

You will find that last year we missed the finals by 1 game or percentage after falling away the 2nd half of the season...can't quite remember. If we had of missed by 4 games, we would have finished in the bottom 4.
 
Every post I've seen you make has been a troll. Who cares how long you've been around?

can you explain to me what is a "troll"? what does that mean?

Also I'm just telling the facts. Wallace said we would finish 9th. It's stated.
 
it's simple we loss key player at the begining of the year like brown,simmo,knobel,hall kinglesy.few forwards optionsbut most importantly we lost our ruck options only patty was left to take charge an he is good but wasn't really to go up against exp players all game. we are being beaten at most stoppages they are getting frst use of the ball. it's hard to score when u don't have the ball.

Exactly! We have missed the three players in our side that actually make others around them better players. Simmonds, Brown and Coughlan. Take these 3 players, we lose 5 games we were in a positions to win. The boys confidence is down and our season is basically over.

Actually I look at the loss of these players as a blessing. We have seen that the depth of our list is poor and the only way it is going to improve is the following two ways.

1. Play the kids now and continue to do it through the year so they gain experience and hopefully the improvement will follow. Some players have already improved dramatically this year.

and

2. Turnover the list again at seasons end. Now they know where the list is lacking they can address these areas. Go after a ready made ruckman as back up for Simmonds and also get in another young developing ruckman. Look at getting a young KP defender in either the draft or the trade period to fill the FB position or at least add more depth there if Thursfield comes good.
