Re: We're Just Not Good Enough
Well your wife has plastic tits! I am a d**khead but that doesn't invalidate my arguments. Looks like I hit a nerve there. You bump your own thread when we lose as if losing to last years grand finalists after the week from hell and losing one of our A-graders early in the game somehow proves you ri...

Re: A message to the "rest Roo" brigade
Oooh how dare we discuss if a 35 yo with his leg about to fall off should get a rest. So crazy, so bizzare. DO N0T DISCUSS THE GOLDEN BOY - HE IS OFF LIMITS TO ALL AND SUNDRY THEREIN.

Re: We're Just Not Good Enough
Ah you are one of these "just give me one example" then when some one does to get some interaction you go"Nope one example please". Didn't realise you were one of these who don't actually want to interact but just hear your own voice (words?). Guess you are the new Plugger.

Re: Richo v horse
We have 3 distinct plans. Well the bomb it to the forward 30 one has been well and truly worked out by our opposition coaches now and needs to be culled from our gamebook. Time to adjust and invent a replacement. We lacked Bruce's work rate to make that tactic work yesterday and Paddy wasn't much o...

Re: A message to the "rest Roo" brigade
Players tend to kick it to him so much as he's runs so hard making many, many leads, and as captain with huge authority players just tend to go to him. I don't think that is healthy. We need to consider the future. Do they really kick it to Roo, or is it a case of the fact that he has suck an aerob...

Re: Gresham - just 12 touches
Yeah and we got cut up the Swans backs and couldn't lock it in our forward half like previously (leaving Bruce out probably hurt that). I just don't see why people are so panicked to give Gresh a go in the VFL to learn the midfield craft. That seems to be what they are grooming him for - give him a ...

Re: A message to the "rest Roo" brigade
Poor Rooey needs a rest so says many. Poor Rooey- and he's clearly sore but is often that way - still had 19 effing possies and kicked 3 effing goals. So let's "rest Rooey" against the Dogs and get torn a really big hole that can't be stitched together. Wow. You have so much faith in the ...

Re: We're Just Not Good Enough
Seriously JM You flip and flop after results between after a win - oh yes maybe there are some good young players coming through, to after a loss - "you can't polish a turd". How convenient your narrative can change to match the results.

Re: Our Paddy
In hindsight it wasn't a good game to bring him back. It was always going to be tough against a team we haven't beaten in five years and who, before their lousy start to the season, were regarded as a competition benchmark. It's a lot to expect of a young key forward to dominate when the side, as a...

Gresham - just 12 touches
4 kicks, 8 handies. 2 tackles as a pressuring forward. Not nearly good enough Greshmeister. I know he is one of Richo's fav little bunnies but he seriously needs to be dropped. Is looking flat playing that tough small forward role. Seems to second guess himself nearly every time with his decision ma...

Re: Probably got it wrong at the selection table
We got to the ball amply enough. We were just dismal by hand and foot. That was the biggest issue today, and not just one player, but basically the whole team. Its an issue of the sort of players we are developing. We haven't really put a high premium on ball use or try to use a possession based st...

Re: Saints v Swans match thread
MATCH REPORT: One cannot be competitive when your opponent is playing well if you continually kick and handball to them. This happened throughout the 4 quarters. Problem is we are not stacking our team with players with great disposal. Thats not really the philosophy guiding the team. Hopefully we ...

Re: We may be playing in Shanghai in 2018!
ARen't they anti-religious - would they want the Saints there? And would we be ok cow-toweling to a viscous controlling bunch of fascist despots. WEll they have loads of money and economic power so we can ignore all the human rights abuses I guess. So much principle in professional sport right.

Could be a coach killer game at this rate. Most enjoyable to see Hardwick and Buckers under the pump.

Re: Votes vs da Swans
Forgot about Gilbo. GAve us some good run and defensive cover and smacked in hard. Looked a bit tired in the ruck though, out of his depth with the huge rucks. Honourable mention.

Get ready for the hate Scollop. How dare you question the golden-haired boy in such a reasonable, logical way. you are a traitor. Don't you know this club is St Roolda? We won't win a single game without him for the rest of eternity apparently.

5 Ross- 37 possies - maybe didn't use them all the best but worked his guts out. 4 Billings - probably predictable drop from last weeks outstanding effort as the oppo put work into him.

Paddy needs another 30 games before we'll be able to judge him accurately. Yeah you go from next to nothing in VFL, to 30,000 screaming drunk idiots, would have been p...

Re: The third handball problem
I'm generally fine with it, but there is a fine line between pushing the ball forward at all costs and completely unaccountable football.

Re: Perspective.
After all the insane s*** this week is anyone surprised we looked a bit distracted and flat? An experienced top 4 team could probably deal with all the crap going down. But we need to be at our best each week to win. With Newnes going down you almost just need to write it off as one of those weeks.
