Richmond had a host of speculative shots at goal in the first half that all sailed through. They couldn't miss. Typically, those shots have a 50% return, yet they had a 100% return. Everything they did worked in that first half. In general play we were with them and at times had control of things. ...

Would you buy a racehorse from that man. Has sold his soul, like plenty of others, to the gambling industry and with it credibility. Richmond knew they had been in a game. Looking at a stat is lazy commentary/theatre; boys tried but had trouble putting combination punches together. Clearance domina...

Geelong have had the most arrogant players in the competition. Fuckn turds...as are their fans and their stupid coach Since Scarlett had the run in with Banger and after our loss to The Weapon/Steven Dank inspired cheats they have been my most hated Remember the posters on shop fronts in Geelong in ...

Geary Ross Membrey Billings Hill Roberton This was our 2020 leadership group. Only 1 of them in the top 10. This is damning. If B&F votes are the best way to assess whether or not a player is fulfilling the role required of him in the team, our 'leaders' were a great disappointment this year. I...

The umpires had a very bad night, missed a lot of frees more than usual...and it definitely helped one team more than the other. Richmond play on the edge, they went over the line a lot last night. It’s the umpires responsibility to keep the game within the rules, they failed, and it cost us. Our m...

Fifth would normally get you pick 14 BUT AFL has donated pick 11 to Gold Coast as a bonus who have already on sold that pick. Makes Saints pick notionally pick 15. At least one lowly placed clubs is wanting to exploit the free agency compensation. If they can push out an older player who attracts a...

The AFL want a Collingwood v Richmond grand final. That’s interesting to ponder. Is it the AFL who want it or Channel 7? Do Channel 7 have an influence on the integrity of the competition because they want to maximise audiences? Did you notice how quiet Brucey and all the 7 commentators were when t...

And they’ll throw in some short and curly ones from the coach and pres for their dumbass filth supporters. Yes the prized ginger ones from Nath are worth a sniff before you frame them alongside your ‘commitment certificate’

Perhaps that’s a lesson for our defensive line coach to ensure that when Dougs is up against a tall forward (if Carlisle isn’t playing or another tall defender isn’t floating around ) that we have to have someone supporting him as third man up in a 2-1 contest. Especially when Dougs is up against so...

Yep. I can definitely see a Tiger ‘Claw’

Did you mean another four letter c word?

Steele Membrey Ross Marshall Battle Marshall should have been equal best or second best on ground for his efforts and work rate tonight but he has to learn to be a team player. Use your team mates to get the best result for the team. Look to dish it off first BEFORE you go trying to be a hero or try...

Pity it won't get counted!

I’m watching the replay now. Didn’t get to see all the game last night because I had to work

Both Billings and Hill are exquisite users of the football when they have space and time. That’s why they have secured their large salaries. There were times in the game last night where some of our players were reluctant to use Billings when he was free. This has to stop. We had the same situation ...

Adam Treloar, Tim Taranto and Jack Riewoldt thanks If I can’t have that, I’ll have Ollie Wines, Isaac Heeney and grab his team mate Allir Allir. Both Allir and Josh Battle are good swingmen If Austin or Clavarino can break into the team and if Carlisle stays our tall backs are covered so we already ...

Clark is not ready. Would love for him to put his hand up for a leadership spot, but I like the idea of co-captains for 2021. I’ve had second thoughts about Steele since watching him in a few interviews. Steele may grow into the role but I wouldn’t be making him sole captain just yet. If Hannas is o...

Yeah and usually it is our bread and butter. Lots of areas we can improve. They kicked 52 points to our 9 from stoppages tonight. That’s nothing short of an absolute slaughter. And, that's not normally their go, so go figure. They normally count on turnover differentials. Some of tonight was bizarr...

What do Freo want for Blake Acres? Will they take Hill?

The media commentators and sports journos are concentrating on a love tap on Dougs from Lynch (albeit with his knee), when they should be scrutinising the elbow that Paton copped to his ear hole in the first quarter Lynch was late in the contest and his arms were no where near the footy. Ben was ble...

bulls***. A game we could have easily won. Not blaming King and Battle but if they kicked straighter at crucial times and all those other guys lift and we come home with our tails high. Gresham, Long, Carlisle and Ryder play and Kent, Geary, Lonie and whoever the f*** Walton is become depth. Walton...

Saw a video on afl.com but it’s not working properly

It was a story about RoMa’s family and great to see them going all out with Saints finals fever. Found this on the net;

Marsh played as a running defender at Collingwood but mostly forward at the Saints. Wouldn't surprise me to see him line up on Lynch so Howard can take Jumping Jack Riewoldt with a plan to run off both of them. Wilke will take Dusty when he goes forward - even when he hovers around half forward. i ...
