Fair enough too!And I will just about guarantee you, if Serge was here, SOS wouldn't have behaved like that . He would have gone down to the car park and dragged him out of the car by his ears.
Steven may be working for another club but that's insensitive behaviour at best.
I think that Rita's comment about it being sad that Sergio wasn't there to see Jack's 100th game was spot on. He would have been so proud of his grandson.

For me the dubious one was the Rioli free or mark (not sure what they paid) but it was neither a mark or free for mine.
They did miss Dusty’s first fend off which was probably more blatantly holding the ball.

I'm sure you're right!

Just had another look at the replay I'll take the 2 points. Some positives and some of the usual negatives. would have lost by 6 goals last year.
Tiggers would have beaten most teams on that performance last night. Hardwick was fuming in his presser and stated that their pressure was 'Elite'. Blamed their finishing.
Big plus for the MC playing the two kids. They will only get better. Not sure about TDK and SOS in the ruck.
Next week they we will probably do the same against the Premiers.
Really miss Sammy W. Hope he can get back soon.
Long season and we will only get better. Not sure the Tiggers will

Tonyo, I thought we were very, very ordinary and the tigers blew a few soft goals. Our decision making late in games is still awful which is a major concern. I'd take the two bonus points, because that's what they are IMO.

The execution of a couple of things was poor.

I'm sure I'll cop some abuse, but I tell you I am not surprised. I have mentioned to many on here previously, that fans can't believe the players from that era aren't all best buddies, in fact quite the opposite and many won't even speak to each other. I think polarising is the term I used to describe them, I had learned quite a bit about this from direct discussions with one former player.
Fans tend to idolise the past players, but when you do that without accountability you end up with a James Hird personality!
PS; This perhaps explains some of that look on SoJ's face after the siren, he knew what was coming!

I agree. We had one structural lapse that cost us the lead after controlling the game for almost all of the last seven minutes. The last centre bounce play was good, but we ran out of time.
Of course, we could have done better and the coaches will be working on that.

I wonder whether Ross the Toss's comments through the week regarding information being passed between father and son mightn't have caused a bit of an issue with Jack and Dad.
On the surface it seems like poor form by SOS, but he may have thought there would be a few who would have had a shot at him if he went into the rooms.
