Melb vs Perth

I'm sitting here watching this game wondering what the heck Perth are doing. Brad Robbins is shocking, seriously how many turn overs can the guy have!!

Tigers are getting alot of 50/50 calls from the umpires..pretty much all of them which is killing Perth, if we had refs advantage like this at home we would be 3 from 3 for home games. You know its bad when Gaze is even calling them wrong. Redhage even got fouled off early and that never happens!

Mills has been non-existant tonight, he really needs to learn that shooting shouldnt be his only option and to drive to the basket sometimes.

I have to say it really looks like the old Tigers went into the change rooms and screamed at the team at half time cause this games just completely changed after half time.

Robbins had a couple of bad turnovers yes, but he was also the guy who made Mills completely irrelevant. So it wouldn't hurt to give him some kudos for that.

A pretty impressive second half comeback from the Tigers, even with the assistance they received.

Robbins was terrible? Which game were you watching champ? Half his turnovers were fumbled catches by the bigs (I remember one to knight and one to Nevill)

that he could make robbins look like half a player is a prettry massive indictment on patty - with each passing game it becomes more clear taht we need to start looking for a new starting point guard for the boomers..

To Average OKKA, I was at the game and the majority of turnovers Robbins made were his own fault. Don't try and blame them on the bigs. He just had a poor offensive night. He made up for it on D though.

I noticed Mills seemed upset or other wise emotional during the presentation of the singlet to the indigenous lady before the game. I didn't catch what that ceremony was about but he appeared to be wiping tears from his eyes when he was returnign to teh line-up. Anyone know what that was about, or was I imagining it?

It may explain his uncharacteristically subdued game, if he was distracted by something external.

Astute observation mate.
