Can someone tell me why the poor old Tigers have so much Collingwood, Carlton and Essendon envy. Is it because they have never been one of the big 3 of Victorian Football? Is it because Collingwood beat them in 3 Grand Finals in a row? Is it because the mighty Blues touched them up again yesterday? Is it jealousy over Sheeds? The poor old Tiges have just never been able to cut it with the big boys. Perhaps if their supporters (bandwagon jumpers) worried more about their own insipid, pathetic performances rather than that of the BIG 3, then they may start to improve. The poor jealous Tiges fans have to try and turn on other teams because they have such an woeful team to barrack for. It is such a shame Fitzroy left the league, you now have no one to compete with.

The tigers give you all the material you need for a solid troll, but this effort is pretty lame IMO. Mentioning the spitting, membership ripping, pathetic list of past coaches and captains may have helped with this troll.
Overall a little disappointing.

Carlton wins one game and all of a sudden their supporters think that Carlton has become the great club it once was. I guess it must have been a strange feeling for them to win a game, it doesn't happen to them that much these days.

My Grandpa told me that the Tigers won a Premiership many years ago. Is this true?

Your opinion means nothing to me Judge Judy, so to be honest I don't really give a stuff.

Agree Monkeyboy. The Thinker? Just exactly what was he thinking?
Soft post - Mr.Whippy serves up harder stuff.

Cut Thinker a bit of slack boys. After 3 wooden spoons in the last 5 years he no doubt has an acute case of premature ejaculation in his lap.

Carlton has played well so far in 2007 but losing his load after Round 1 is a serious health hazard :p

Perhaps you can share with us what it is like to win back to back spoons. After all you achieved that more recently than any other club.

Clubs are judged on Premierships, something that your club knows nothing about in recent times. Gee you would need to be older than 30 to remember one. The Tasmanian Tigers is rather catchy.

Is that why the poor old Tiges are jealous, pent up frustration. Perhaps you should try to ejaculate more often.

Could be the Tiges. Surely they can't stay in Victoria with their poor performances, ordinary bandwagon supporters and their lack of success. The white Tiger is not the only one that is almost dead. Bye, bye Tigers.
Why not?,you guys have been poor for five years yet you're still here.
