    Didn't the Tigers flog us the last time we played them at the MCG in 2010? I remember Goodes taking a screamer on the wing.

      I think he/she means our form after we play the Tigers.

        I've gotta say I'm a little nervous about next week. Have to be on our game otherwise I fear it will be a consecutive loss. Definitely need to sort the forward line out for the FIRST bounce. LRT is giving us nothing up there, we need a solution from the get go, hopefully Horse has already got this covered.

          LRT had a good game against Hawthorn, but it's time to bring in someone else. Maybe Pike

            That game was last season.....the one in 2010 we were 5 goals up at 3qtr time and lost.

              Pyke had kicked his first goal and that was about teh last one that we got. Kirk showed he had slowed down when he was easily run around for the Tigers to kick the sealer. It was a disappointing day.

                I'm worried about next week's match against the Tigers too. I'm concerned that if we don't score as many points as them, we could lose.

                  That would be a serious issue. I am seriously worried now.

                    I was at the Tiges game last year and it was horrible to watch it all unfold, I remember just sitting and waiting for what I thought was the inevitable comeback - that didn't happen. Probably the worst game I've been to.

                    You all should be pleased to know also that I will not be going to this game, as my record for attending matches is pretty bad - I've only ever been to 1 winning game (the one point victory against north melbourne last year) so I feel as if I'm pretty bad luck.

                    To be honest though, I'm not very confident for playing at the 'G. We will have to be at our absolute best to get over the line.

                      I am going to this game and i have never been to a swans win. So it doesn't look good. (only get to go see them once or twice a year)

                        Talk about doom and gloom.. We have only lost one game.. It wasn't that long ago we beat them by 118 points..

                          The things I worry about for this match:

                          1. Tigers will take risks and play expansive footy.... and to tell you the truth they are better than their record this year
                          2. Ruck - I think that was a key issue last night, still no mummy in sight
                          3. Forwards - My gut tells me that Goodesy won't be right and Sam isnt right....bring in Jesse and /or TDL... I havent seen ressies this year so dont know who is going well.

                          All in all we will need to kick an 18 goal game I think, dont know where they are going to come from. The mids will need to be immense and ROK will need to kick 5 with Jetta/McGlynn closely following!
                          "We talked five times. I called him twice, and he called me twice." :confused: :confused: :confused: :D

                            Tigers had a good away win today over Port so will be on a roll. We can and should win but if we give them momentum they'll get cracking. We'll have to be at our best as usual.

                            TDL was non-playing emergency from the ressies yesterday so he must be close. It'll definitely be a forward we bring in if Goodes isn't right but the question is who.

                              I don't get how he had a good game against the Hawks he went off at or just before half time. He was really ordinary up til then just doing a job but not that well! Please be truthful about his games he has been abysmal in the ruck this year he isn't a ruckman please!!!! Please!!!Horse stop trying to turn him into one!!!
