Re: Match day thread - Saints v Crows
Some of our olds are done ......the coach can only work with the cattle he has in front of him and clearly there needs to be a bit of a clear out and the kids will need to be given game time and yes this will mean more pain for the long suffering supporters which for some on here is too long and want another coach gone .....that will help a lot thank christ some of you aren't on the board.

Re: Match day thread - Saints v Crows
How do we put up performances like
Pies
Demons
Hawks
Roos
Then dish up performances like
Dogs
Giants
Eagles
Crows
How can they differ by so much? It's so embarrassing.

We have had the best run with injuries in the entire AFL.Hemi Baxter wrote:We're nowhere near the teams that have beaten us and we've injury problems tonight. Blaming the coach is ridiculous. If you must scapegoat start with the recruiting department. We're v slow and our skills are poor.

Re: Match day thread - Saints v Crows
this a fair indication where we are..gees hope we draft well for 2017 otherwise we may not see the 8 for awhile. the Crows are a complete unit we are.... midfield fail, backline fail...but mostly we need a midfield. luckily for us we have some kids who may improve... I think Billings has more to offer and others cant be stuffed putting down future improvers atm...

Re: Match day thread - Saints v Crows
How we are not 150 points down is beyond me, we have been absolutely smashed I cannot remember a more one sided game, even when we lost to hawthorn by 170 odd points a few years back we were better than this. If they had kicked straight we would be down by a similar margin, to get out with under a 100 point loss is incredible

Re: Match day thread - Saints v Crows
Betts is a bloody brilliant player. Where did I say he isn't. Today, however, he has lowered his colours to Geary. Check the stats, statistically Adelaide's worst.mullet wrote:He has still kicked a goal unlike most of our team. you are kidding yourself if you dont think he is a good player.Kate wrote:Not today he isn't.mullet wrote:I would love Eddie Betts playing for us.

Re: Match day thread - Saints v Crows
Time to do a Sheedy and swap the backs and forwards bar a few midfielders who need to go forward. This should build some respect for the those back and forward.saintsRrising wrote:He is clearly playing injured as cannot leap and is limping. So do not know what it is, but he is injured.MC Gusto wrote:dempster hammy?!
We couldn't have played much worse today.
Midfield clearances and clear winners are needed to make an effective forward line.

So this is our lot is it? This is our standard? Time to stop caring so much if it is. Surely there's better things to be doing.Con Gorozidis wrote:Simple. Pies and Demons were terrible and Hawks and Norf had off days.8856brother wrote:How do we put up performances like

Compare to him to Heath Shaw.The Fireman wrote:I still think we should blame Gilbo
Same position. Same age.
What is laughable is that some people actually delude themselves that Gilbert is still a good footballer.
