[Lignum]

Oh, we're from Tigerland,
A fighting fury, we're from Tigerland,
In any weather you will see us with a grin,
Risking head and shin,
If we're behind then never mind,
We'll fight and fight and win.

For we're from Tigerland,
We'll never weaken 'til the final siren's gone.
Like the Tigers of old,
We're strong and we're bold.
For we're from Tiger..
yellow and black,
For we're from Tigerland.

:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

There's a rumour going around that the best vfl/afl side to ever play beat the bulldogs last night.:D

Got this as an email.
Just seems appropriate to share it here:

Justice in Victoria

(AP) - A seven-year old boy was at the centre of an Melbourne courtroom drama when he challenged a court ruling over who should have custody of him. The boy has a history of being beaten by his parents and the judge initially awarded custody to his aunt, in keeping with child custody law and regulations requiring that family unity be maintained to the highest degree possible.

The boy surprised the court when he proclaimed that his aunt beat him more than his parents and he adamantly refused to live with her. When the judge then suggested that he live with his grandparents, the boy cried and said that they also beat him.

After considering the remainder of the immediate family and learning that domestic violence was apparently a way of life among them, the judge took the unprecedented step of allowing the boy to propose who should have custody of him.

After two recesses to check legal references and confer with the child welfare officials, the judge granted temporary custody to the Richmond Football team, whom the boy firmly believes is not capable of beating anyone this year.

[artme]

Oh how the mighty have fallen!

In 1969 I watched the Grand Final betwee Richmond and Collingwood on TV, in Broken Hill. Highest ever aggregate scor in Grand Final history! Wonderful stuff!!!

[Lignum]

Check this out. Normal tradition for all clubs is for debutants or first time winners for a club to be in the inner of the circle. The Tiges had so many they actually had two circles, one in the middle including first time coach… Brings a tear to the eye and lump in ur throat.:)

[Carry Pine]

Graham,

A sporting event of a different type.....
Ae you coming this year?


Greg

[Carry Pine]

Greg,

Yes i go each year but I miss the real bargains at Greenwich in the yard.

Graham

[Greg Ward]

The yard has only moved to Cremorne, where a good supply of red cedar, some n and s silky oak, a few pieces of black walnut and some merbau posts are waiting a good home....
I'll stock up again and have a sale after the wood show.

Greg

[Carry Pine]

OK Greg but only if you stop hijacking this thread while the loyal Tiger supporters can have their moment of glory.

Now where were we?

yes, now for St Kilda- what's the plan?

Plan? Depends on how selection goes. As I have no idea how Dimma and the Match Committee will be approaching this game, im fence sitting with three options.

Option 1- Reward the players for a superb job

In - Simmo (retirement)
Out - Polak (unlucky)

Option 2- Reward the players for a superb job and if Foley 100% ready to play.

In - Simmo Foley
Out - Polak Nason (rest, as it’s his time)

Option - 3 Sticking phat to a pre planed structure. With the faster Etihad we will need a fresh team after that amazing 258 tackle slog, that will drain any team, especially our young ones, and we have only a 6 day break coming off a road trip. Dimma said they deliberately went small because of the conditions, so I would assume he will reverse that with the perfect undercover conditions of Etihad. This is my prefered option.

Out - Polak Nason Nahas Moore ----- (all rested)
In - Simmo Thursty Foley Rance ----- (Rance to tag Goddard)

They have Dawson out so Jack will have a field day:D, and Big Griff in his second game will show everyone why he will be the next big thing in world sport. Little Kingy has been superb in the last 2 weeks tagging, so he will shut down Milne. But its Lids, Cotch and Dusty who will slaughter them in the clearances and stoppages.

Tiges by 13

Also congrats to Dustin Martin for being this weeks Rising Star:2tsup:

[Greg Ward]

St Kilda, What?
The patron saint of the criminal under class (as in:

"Duh... the girl is dead i think...."

"Jeez! who Kilda?"......

Is this what you mean Graham?

Greg

[Carry Pine]

Greg,

Don't give up your day job of selling timber from your back yard in a harbourside address. ie: leave the jokes to Wongo.
Now leave this serious thread to the serious Richmond tragics to wallow in their victory.
