The Tigers

[old_man_tiger]

Just when you think we will finally win one of these tight games, which will be spoken about for years (maybe not in a good way), that happens.

There was a small sliver of hope that the team would learn something, maybe even the whole club, that if you want it that little bit more you'll get it. Not tonight. Not ever.

I understand why some are laughing, but I'm gutted. Footy was my favourite escape and like many I need it right now, and now I need an escape from the tigers.

Like them, follow them but don't watch live games.

If only I could actually do that.

I was at a wake and missed the first half. Honestly the wake was more fun.

I know I can't be the only one that knew we would lose that game in the last minute, it's just the way of the Tigers.

I used to go through all week just waiting for game day, so excited to watch the Tigers. I was so immersed in it, read the forum, read any club news leading up to every game.

Now I don't even check when our game is till late on in the week. No excitement, nothing.

And it's not just the losing, it's the fact we are garbage. So boring to watch, premeditated, one-out, predictable rubbish.

No support, not 1%er's, playing way before the line engaging noone.

It's horrible.

Our prayer's are the worst lot we've had.

Laurie is not a career footballer. Peachy came here for a holiday. Our forwards are non-existant. Could go on, but I've wasted enough time on these nuffies.

Yeah even though defence is improved the opposition has just played to our level. Spoon level.

Personally I find this footy team so boring to watch. Predictable and one out.

Who is the attack coach??

 

[hank37w]

Peachy is one of those players that has caused us a lot of grief when he has played against us, now he does it playing for us.

The whole time I just knew something was coming.

 

[GNR4LIFE]

And everyone wonders why we have a target on our head when it comes to the media. As if it’s undeserved.

 

[old_man_tiger]

All good comments. I'm just gutted. Used to be so proud to be a fan, even when we weren't doing well on the ladder. Now we are a joke with no punchline.

What’s this about Hastings having to make his own way up to QLD? The club wouldn’t fly him up there? They just mentioned it in the presser

 

[Harvey]

We should be nicknamed the powderpuff boys.

Luarie, Peachey, Joe O among others. Lot of soft efforts there in avoiding the tough stuff and any semblance of hard work

Club made him pay his own airfares

Thanks for clarifying mate.

Really tough night. Worst thing, being a Thursday if I finish this bottle of whisky I'll be stuffed for work.

Ah ok, hopefully that’s the case. Didn’t sound very professional but I guess if that’s the norm..

Yeah that sums it up. A much improved effort but just not good enough to seal it. Some very bad decisions didn’t help either

 

[Sco77y]

He cares too much, makes everyone look bad

He speaks with more purpose and passion than anyone else in the team and he’s been here for two games

 

[krissy]

I wait for the phone messages from people laughing about the tigers. It is really getting old, we are the joke of the NRL and I don’t see that changing any time soon.

Feel the exact same way as you do.

Hopefully when Hastings comes back we can continue working on the team's cohesion and any combinations. (There's been some promising signs, for me). Have no idea about how we use our forwards.
IMO Joffa, Tuilagi and Luciano have all been solid for us so far this year.
