    Very scrappy so far, but I feel we can get on top of them as the game goes on.
    I fail to understand that too!!!

      Umpire tries his stand up comedy routine when he asked Mumford - do you want the point or have another kick?

      Mummy could have gone down in footy history by taking the point.

      I've enjoyed watching the Tigers play over the last month and they're not disappointing again today.

      Swans are having a lot of trouble clearing the ball and we haven't had the ball inside 50 much.

      Good tackle by Jude and McGlynn outstanding.

      Amazing Kennedy is still on the ground after getting a knee to the ribs.

      TDL hard first kick for goal but seems anytime the ball has gone near Goodes or him, they are being marked by 2 tigers.

      It will be a close game and we really need to win this one.

      Another Commetiism, "Umpire waives it on, hasn't gone the 15, yes it has, Jack's got it"

        Great run up the midfield by the Swans but Playfair, after taking a good mark, made a bad decision by kicking across field to Shaw when there appeared to be a leading Swans player near goals.

        Jude buries the goodbye thread now.

          We beat the Tigers today and then the Kangaroos next week we're basically locked inside the 8. We must win against Richmond today!

            The Deledio replay was nasty but nowhere near the Barlow break yesterday.

                How many goals does LRT hand the opposition every week. We are crap and always will be whilst he, Playfair and Pyke are in our team. We have no forward line, a slow midfield and dumb backs. We are going to lose this game and all respect.

                  Marking pathetic. LRT pathetic - get him off. Goodes MIA again. Lots of laziness all round. Tigers keen.

                      It would be typical of us to throw away a chance to basically seal a finals spot, we never do things the easy way.

                        Ch 7 guys are bagging Goodes for only 3 touches so far. I think it's a bit harsh, he hasn't been able to get near the ball.

                        Deledio does a Lazarus and is back on.

                        The McGlynn tackle should be in the hi-lights tape.

                          The People's Hero TDL doesn't do much does he?

                            Give up on Goodes at Forward! Let the small forwards do the work?

                              Jetta has been giving TDL kicking lessons. Have to be first game nerves. I hope the next chance is a better angle.

                                We've replaced one guy who can't kick straight with another
