Re: Match Thread Saints v Kangaroos at Boot Hill Round 1 2019

Battling hard, too many passengers and a hell of a lot of poor decisions.

Paton, Long, Acres, Dunstan, Sinclair ineffective or too many errors

Re: Match Thread Saints v Kangaroos at Boot Hill Round 1 2019

The move of Tarrant onto Bruce has quelled him

We should now isolate Membrey

WTF was Parker doing?

All of Steele’s tackles at stoppage against their target, Cunnington. He might break a record today. Be nice if he could offer a bit offensively

Re: Match Thread Saints v Kangaroos at Boot Hill Round 1 2019

Seb has won an AFL best and fairest and has been runner up twice, so a C grader he is not. I know he’s now a whipping boy now, but anyone would think he’s the worse player in the AFL the way some carry on. As for why he’s quite, if you watch closely, he’s been taken out of the middle and put on the ...

Cordz, obviously you have never been shirtfronted?! Do you really think he had good technique in that contest, Zeiball turned an put his shoulder straight through his sternum. Hunter won’t leave himself open like that again in a hurry, he’ll learn that incident that you protect yourself in a collisi...

Why was Carlisle off with two minutes to go to leave Wilkie 191cm 90kg in a marking contest with Brown 202cm 100kg

Good work on the bench with that rotation

Well he was called the GOAT after doing not much. He is a dumb footballer, and cannot play through the middle due to his lack of accountability

Re: Match Thread Saints v Kangaroos at Boot Hill Round 1 2019

Will be well over 100. Battle is a player we can I’ll afford to lose. Carlisle massive flog and overrated, he’s ok when he can play on his own in the backline, but he’s a defender who doesn’t defend, and he is like the queen mary. Membrey competing with Tarrant, there’s the issue with our front half...

Re: Did anyone put their hand up at Arden St?

No
Maybe Lonie, he got a few cheap goals, maybe a dozen touches

Rice was ok, but he’s not AFL standard

They were flogged, but the reality is, they had very little quality playing.

Re: Putrid reading

Bruce is a 197cm 100kg Power Forward I’m sure he can play deep forward, in fact he should. Membrey is the one who is used poorly, but that’s out of necessity. On the relief rucking Why is everyone so up in arms about him or Acres doing 5 mins a quarter on the ball? Someone has to?! And who is a bett...

Re: We're officially a bottom 4 Club

Players delivered BT a premiership in 09. And the goal umpire. He did nothing tactically in his time as coach. Just a freak playing group.

StK were all over them in the first half, but missed opportunities. Should have been 4 goals up.

Offer them nothing and take him in the pre season draft if that still exists, or ND

No one else will select him at 450k and we have loads of cap space

Scallop Geelong had a pretty fair list at that time also, 7 All Australians in 2007 alone, Brownlow Medallist’s, Norm Smith medallist’s A detestable but champion Full Back.

Re: Putrid reading

Each list needs 45 odd players

25 or so Senior players and a few fringe players about 8 back ups and about 6-8 kids developing in the VFL

Goddard, Weller and Minch were recruited as back up players

Remember we recruited a 30yo Sam Rowe FFS

Re: The most overrated thing in footy

He created an effective game plan? He had a high pressure, move ball forward at all costs defenders press forward, and pressure small forwards to lock the ball i50. Sounds familiar to a GP we had in 2016/17... or even us in 09 or Coll in 2010 or Dogs 2016. In fact most teams run with a similar plan....

Ultimately he was sacked when StK admin realised he was an egomaniac who was full of S*** But that was too late. Why El...

Hi Stonecold, Still claiming you’re a man mountain to try and intimidate people. Not sure how armchair supporters are overrated, or who overrates them, actually that attempt at humour makes little or no sense.
