yeah for sure. But I agree with the other poster who said we should have named wilkes and stretched their defence. It was the only position we were stronger than them. Dal and Joey need to get harder at the ball.
Anyhow, goodes injured for sydney so he will prob be missing when we play them.
Hard to win when you lose the main ruck and best defender, but jeez, apart from Kosi, Steven, Simpkin, Roo and maybe Polo, just too many second to the ball efforts. Bloody poor midfield effort, and I'm still waiting to see Siposs do anything that suggests he is anywhere near a senior player. Time for Milne to hang up the boots I think.

This was it.
So if you cant get it down there where are you losing it from???? - time and again when we really needed a centre clearance we couldnt get a run on - did we ever win 2 in a row all night?
I agree, thought Kosi was great fwd and thought we looked dangerous - thought Riewoldt looked unlikely to mark anything as they just bobbed off his chest all night...but we did look dangerous.....needed Wilkes for mine
How is it we have so many poorly skilled one sided players. Tonight our hand balling skills and inability to hit a target was disgraceful. Our skills and our turnovers were horrendous - as a collective we have to be the worst skilled team by hand & foot in the competition.
SAINTS another day older another day closer to the Holy Grail!

hopefully we evolve....in a major fashion....
Not surprised by the result. But going down by 6 goals, it became a blowout towards the end. I thought 100-80 would have been a more respectable scoreline. Well, more respectable if we were to have any ambitions of coming good towards the pointy end of the year.
To date, I've seen nothing to suggest that we can threaten in the finals if we make it there.

Kosi really good best game for years. Roo is disgraceful in front of goal.
And a big thankyou to robert walls for firing up hawthorn during the week. Much appreciated.
Absolutley.....that was so transparent. The guy is an assh*le, pure and simple!
In honour of those who went before, in the dark and desperate years.
