I'm at the game and were being smashed
Absolutely ripped apart besides the swans bad kicking for goal. 29 scoring shots to 15 now. Weve been poor against a team with s*** forwards and an average midfield. Nothing positive to take out of this game.
UP THE SAINTERS!

I have always believed we were shot, nothing has changed my mind. I would of liked if we brought in a few more players this year for the future. Obviously we have had alot of debuts but havent sighted any new guys for a long time.

Got smashed alright in the end, but losing Zac and Kosi would definately have an effect on team balance, and RL needs to make a big decision on what to do with Roo and his bad knee, as he is just not able to win one-on-ones. This shouldn't cover up the pathetic effort by our midfield all the same, considering we are fighting for a finals berth...all holding back, waiting for the easy ball, poor tackling, bombing the ball and just as bad an effort by the forwards and their lack of defensive work. For the second week in a row, the opposition half backs have got the ball out too easy. Anyway if we do get in the finals, I have seen enough to know quite a few of our players crumble under pressure and RL will already be thinking about recruiting strategies for 2012.

That is a concept that clearly escapes many on here. If you don't believe the side is on the right/best track, or you honestly don't believe we'll win and say so, their small brains come to the conclusion that you don't want the club to succeed, or to win, even when it's the furthest thing from the truth.jonesy wrote:Not a hero...just rightmullet wrote:wow arent you a hero thenjonesy wrote:We are the definition of a mediocre team.

You said we'd finish 10th behind Melbourne and that we had zero chance of beating Collingwood, Sydney or Carlton.jonesy wrote:We are the definition of a mediocre team.
