The Melbourne Cup and a tigers omen

Whilst thumbing through the form guide today and deciding who to invest my $10 at the Orange Grove pub tab i started dreaming about that soundbyte they play on Talkin Sport with the clips of 05 like the queers winning the AFL, makybe diva winning the cup and Payto's last try in the GF ... i watched the 2005 replay on youtube and looked at On a Jeune's run for 2nd and the thing came from near last (like us) and finished a length or so behind a champion like makybe diva. Much like the tigers (except we won the whole thing).

In 2006 in ran like a busted and has done so far this prep in 2007 ... again mirroring the tigers. I suggest we all watch out for No 14 this afternoon. A promising run might bode well for us but if it goes out with a whimper i predict a long 2008

I know this post has little to do with football but when you have a sub 40% win coach since 1996, a clown defensive coach and a nepotistic recruitment manager, one must draw inspiration from 7 year old geldings who haven't run a place in 24 months

Seeing as you're rarely happy as a Tigers supporter, you should have a lash on Bluetigeroo.

More of a pessimist I think.
In keeping with your omens for next year theme, you'd be pleased with No.7 being a late scratching.

Realist would be on the money.
That is a good omen if No 7 is scratched ... maybe he was scratched because his trainer isn't a mug and won't run a horse over a course he ain't suited to ? Maybe his trainer ain't stubborn ?

Well on a jeune ran a solid race ... somewhere near its effort of 05

Lets hope we can at least get close to our 05 effort

Your mate Junior Burger tipped the winner on the WestsTigers web site.
