Round 15 Post Game Thread - Blues v Tigers

[Mantis]

Injury issues tonight were genuine. It looked like it had an effect on our confidence. We looked for the boundary rather than the corridor. I am keen to see Sheehan and Byrne back in action. Something about them tells me they will be winners. Especially Byrne. I don't know what it is but I tell you it is there clear to see. We need Rowe back soon. We miss Judd tonight. He cut them a new one in the finals game we played against the Tigers. We are very shallow in the list department when injuries hit. Especially when players limp around during a game when things go wrong during a game.

We were down our 2 best mids in theory (Judd, Thomas). 2 best defenders (Rowe, and Jamo early in the 1st quarter). Had Murphy limp through the last quarter, and Gibbs having his left pec cause him to have no input of real use in the last quarter. White did have mobility issues after his hyperextension.

All this added to a list that is green without Betts, Waite, Garlett, Robinson, and McLean. One which has left last season, but we haven't replaced these key players just yet. I would love to see how the tigers go without Cotchin, Martin, Deledio, Riewoldt and a couple of players or 3 limping through a last quarter in their side.
