With the last meeting against Ivanhoe going right down to the last few minutes to find the result, this game on paper looked to be a very even contest again. The Tigers were missing last years Best & Fairest (Matthew Facey) and Runner Up in that award (Lawrence Miriklis) along with 2-3 other players so [...]
After a very slow start when completely overun by the opposition, we at least were more competetive in the 2nd half, and if a lesson was to be learnt from this game it would be how the Fitzroy team were able to put amazing pressure on us when we had the ball and cause turnovers, and [...]
After last week’s good win the onus on the team this week was to continue on in the same fashion and play the brand of football that the coaching staff know we can play. To come up against the second team on the ladder was always going to be a difficult asssignment but to the teams [...]
After last weeks great 2nd quarter when we played our best footy of the year, the coaches were very confident of a good performance this week, and the team didn’t let them down playing good football during most of this game. We showed if we move the ball quickly and play this type of footy we [...]
The Under 11’s for the second week in a row played against the team that was second on the ladder, and after slow start when trailing at quarter time, put together a terrific second quarter scoring 4 goals, but the way we scored the goals was the important factor playing very good football along the [...]
We journeyed to Canterbury this week on a foggy sunday morning, and had a very slow start with the opposition scoring 5 goals in the first quarter to us nil. The second quarter proved to be our best when we attacked for most of the quarter and scored both our goals through Nick Armocida (A [...]
In a very even game of football on the weekend, the tigers probably had a better chance to win this game than they showed due to SOME ordinary patches of play, when most players tried to win the game of their own boot. We have to start teaming better for us to win more games [...]
This weeks game at Banyule turned out to be a good one for the Tigers, with early scoring and then never being headed. The game in the first 5 minutes was very scrappy until Liam Hounihan put 2 goals on the board and Nick Armocida added another just before quarter time. The second quarter turned out [...]
The Under 11 team went down to a quality Heidelberg side on the weekend, after a slow start the young tiger team played a very good second quarter and tried valiantly from then on, but found it very hard to score. Once again this week there were some very good signs and a win is not [...]
The season started with the Under11 team playing Balwyn at Balwyn in round 1 and were completely outclassed by a team who should not be in this division. Although the team tried very hard they were no match for the opposition who won easy. Better players in this game were Lawrence Miriklis, Nick Armocida, Damian [...]
