Just got back from a local eatery here in the Cross and I gotta tell ya, no one's talking about Gilbo playing.

Then again, no one's talking about Shenton playing.

No one's really talking about the game.

No one seems to know what the AFL is.

A lot of people are drunk. :(







Carn the Saints!!!!! :)

I think Ross thought we were irrelevant when he left, thankfully we didn't let him down.. :roll: :roll:

The AFL is in strife, Essendope thing is extremely black and white.. how do you decide who is write

Six debutants for the Saints so far in Season 2024. :D

righto

but seriously - playing a guy who hasnt played in 12 weeks and actually isnt that good anyway (gilbo) over a guy in good form who we want a look at (shenton) has me really questioning our coach.
what a joke.

Considering how he is playing a few of us look silly. You have more courage than me Con to say that after that half of footy.

The match committee is being conservative with the young players, rotating them regardless of form.

Gilbo going ok. Strange move though.
It make absolutely no sense to upgrade a rookie then not play him. I can not fathom it at all.

11 disposals at 90% efficiency, 6 1%ers not bad for a bloke that hasnt played for 12 weeks

I think some of our supporters massively underrate Gilbos worth.

Con I gotta say you carry on like a mad womens crap sometimes.

Gilbo was fantastic for a bloke who hasn't played for 14/15 weeks.

Agreed I have to concede he had a very good game and can understand why he played as he is our best 3rd up option!

He was great, but we lost by ten goals and didn't get to look at a promising rookie who is running out of time...

Lucky Milne played though... Phew.

Gilbo did well and we were desperate for his extra few cm down back .
I went too early after the first 5 minutes with this thread.

Would have liked to see Shenton play.
Maybe Josh was due a rest in hindsight? Would have been like for like.

Gilbert was immense and showed why we missed him so much.

Unselfish players, always floats back to help.

Was a bit dirty when nobody returned the favour too.
