I wasn't very happy with the game last night. Such a drop off in the last quarter, and very poor kicking throughout the game.

We all going to the second game or what? I promise not to take any gigs this time round.

Yep for sure!

The leader is dengelmania with a total score of 7 with a total margin of 61.

Didn't think that would get me the lead, but I'll take it!

As usual Collingwood lose every game they should win... Not the way to start a season.

Feigan · Post by **Feigan** » Mon Mar 30, 2009 9:14 am

Great start to the season for the Blue Boys.

Disastrous week in footy for me.

Tigers copped a hiding. Polled 5 in footy tips. Scored 1550 in SuperCoach.

"The only way is up... baby... "

Is that a type of beer, or just the flavour of your nails?

Knew I should never count on Collingwood doing the right thing.

Just saw the result of the Richmond game today. OMFG. Wooden Spoon for Tigers with 5/1 odds methinks.

And now we play Geelong this week? Bloodbath awaiting. Glad I am not in the country.

Direkt · Post by **Direkt** » Wed Apr 01, 2009 5:21 pm

Yep, not looking too good mate.

We'll come out fighting after last week's display - but exactly what that amounts to with a quality outfit like Geelong, and in Geelong - remains to be seen.

Might be a short trip to the pub for me.

kronz · Post by **kronz** » Sun Apr 05, 2009 8:31 pm

Only 5 this week. Few upsets

Fents · Post by **Fents** » Sun Apr 05, 2009 8:48 pm

GO BOMBERS! Windalick was in fine form.

Picked 'em all except for St Kilda. Ba!

got 6... GO EAGLES!!!!!!!!!

Direkt · Post by **Direkt** » Mon Apr 06, 2009 11:46 am

Got 5, damnit.

Go Tigers! I thought we might have got over the line with that 3rd quarter... but alas, Geelong at Geelong is a tough ask indeed.

DBoy · Post by **DBoy** » Mon Apr 06, 2009 2:15 pm

havnt put my tips in for this yet, either round, probably never will.
Trying to work out my supercaoch team before round 4 kicks off.

Got a weee'lil 1600 this round, not looking to good.

Lizkins · Post by **Lizkins** » Mon Apr 06, 2009 2:36 pm

dammit, only got 5 this round

wtf hawthorn

dengelman · Post by **dengelman** » Mon Apr 06, 2009 2:47 pm

The leader is dengelmania with a total score of 13 with a total margin of 87.

Has lead. Will gloat.

Stray, kronz and quick on the hunt.

WTF carlton on top. Boo to that. Respect to Richmond for fighing hard. Played some good footy.

Hawthorn will come good...

(Not so sure about Pies - expecting a thumping this week...)

Tips only take a minute to enter big boy - get on it!

Got 1870 in SuperCoach this week... expecting bigger things this weekend though, 2000+ will be nice.

Direkt · Post by **Direkt** » Thu Apr 09, 2009 4:55 pm

Tips are in, SuperCoach is primed... all ready for a BIG weekend in footy.

For Tigers fans, Mark Coughlan isn't far off a comeback after a 2 year hiatus and a terrible run with injuries (2 knee reco's and a torn hammie). He picked up 41 pocessions and layed 10 tackles in an impressive game for Coburg last week.

I'm tipping the Tigers for an upset against the Doggies on Monday.... fingers crossed!

DBoy · Post by **DBoy** » Mon Apr 20, 2009 11:05 am

Not doing my tips, just not doing them.

Got 2000 Supercoarch points, and still got rolled! rough!

Despite all that....

GO DEE'S - I'll take that win and rub it in to Direkt just a little.

kronz · Post by **kronz** » Mon Apr 20, 2009 5:53 pm

I think i just had the worst week in my tipping history.

2 from 8.

I would have been better to not put my tips in i think.

FUCKING F4IL

Well done mate. You guys played well, and we played standard Richmond crap.

I don't even care any more, I'm numbed to the feeling

Lizkins · Post by **Lizkins** » Tue Apr 21, 2009 1:22 pm

hawthorn......what the absolute fuck??? i was there, it was terrible. no one really seems to know why they tanked so badly except for the possibility that the ex-coach stats guy took all the hawthorn game plays to Port. good one

got 4 in tipping, not bad considering the week

Feigan · Post by **Feigan** » Tue Apr 21, 2009 2:52 pm

Got 4 too - sucks balls.

damn you Carlton.

why.....

WHY!

Direkt · Post by **Direkt** » Tue Apr 21, 2009 2:55 pm

4 as well.

Stock standard by the sounds of things.

Direkt · Post by **Direkt** » Thu Apr 23, 2009 2:49 pm

Finally, some decent news for Tigers fans since the opening bounce of the 2009 Premiership season... forgotten midfielder Mark Coughlan is rumoured to be returning to the seniors this Saturday night against North.

Coughlan, quite possibly the unluckiest man in football, as not played a game for Richmond since blowing his knee out in 2006. Following this knee reco he blew his other knee out in a "shower accident" and then tore his hamstring, before straining said hamstring once again.

He was a decent player a couple of years back, former Richmond B&F and is only 27... so fingers, toes, eyes and balls crossed that he remains injury free.

Cousins, COTCHIN and Raines should also be available over the coming weeks (they're listed as "test" at present).

Geez... ghost town in this thread at the moment.

GO TIGERS!

Fents · Post by **Fents** » Mon Apr 27, 2009 12:13 pm

word! go bombers! what a game.

malthouse is a knob saying what he said in the after game press conference.

Feigan · Post by **Feigan** » Mon Apr 27, 2009 12:19 pm

GO BLUES!

Well done to the tiges to get a win on the board finally.

What did Malthouse say Fents?

Fents · Post by **Fents** » Mon Apr 27, 2009 12:24 pm

that collingwood let the anzacs down by losing and that it was the worst game collingwood have played in years. absolutle BS, was the best game ive seen between any two teams in years...and someone had to loose right? so if ess lost we would of let the anzacs down to i spose. what a knob.

Lizkins · Post by **Lizkins** » Mon Apr 27, 2009 12:25 pm

got 5 this week. bit of a tough tipping week again

man that game had me on the edge of my seat Fents, i couldn't even watch the last few minutes. Go Bombers! Cos i tipped em

what did malthouse say?

Saints are killing it.

Yep, agree with the Malthouse sentiments Fents - I think he was pretty disappointed, but still... The Dons are looking surprisingly good at the moment.

And yes - GO TIGERS... stoked... whilst it's not the best footy we've played, it's a long way from the crap we've been peddling for the past month. Hardness at the ball and commitment to the contest and you'll win every time. Sick.

Direkt · Post by **Direkt** » Fri May 01, 2009 10:35 am

Tough week to tip this week...

Port or Ade?
Freo or WCE?
Haw or Carl?
Geel or Melb?

PS: anyone know what the go is with the "Whopper player of the round" crap on footytips.com.au? Every time I click on it the page stalls.

Lizkins · Post by **Lizkins** » Fri May 01, 2009 12:05 pm

the one i am stuck on is Collingwood and North. Apparently North never play two bad games in a row, but they have injuries. meh, collingwood i guess.

Direkt · Post by **Direkt** » Fri May 01, 2009 12:06 pm

Malthouse and the Pies with their backs to the wall, Harvey injured for the Roos - I reckon the Pies will pound 'em... but you never know with Collingwood. In fact, you never know with anyone....

Feigan · Post by **Feigan** » Fri May 01, 2009 12:12 pm

Pies to win - they let down the Anzac's last weekend and won't be forgetting that thanks to

ps. Malthouse = dickface.

Lizkins · Post by **Lizkins** » Fri May 01, 2009 12:13 pm

i know! they are all playing unpredicatbly at the moment, its making for tense watching and screwed tips, bah!

good times

Direkt · Post by **Direkt** » Fri May 01, 2009 12:24 pm

Malthouse back to Richmond for 2010.

BOH!
