Well done, son
Plenty of heroes out there tonight and Gilbo was not one of them. I can think of 12 blokes who were epic tonight.
Enjoy the win mate, we don't need to find a worst.

We might even get 30 seconds in the media this week?
But it only be in the context that Geelong or Danger lost

Gilbo did a lot of good things... He wasn't a loose...
He gifted two goals... But that's him

Watch the last 5 minutes and see how many times Gilbert saved our arses. But you won't because it doesn't suit your agenda

Mate. I didn't bring it up. I just find it odd that of all the heroes tonight someone singled out Gilbert for a special mention. It is absurd. I dont want to talk about Gilbert.BringBackMadDog wrote:Geez you talk some crap Con, Gilbert played on Kersten who had 8 disposals and had no effect on the game.Con Gorozidis wrote:Really?

Who the hell is Kersten? An absolute nothing player. Ranked 347 in the AFL. Hardly a huge scalp. What about Delaney's job on Hawkins who is actually a gun player?

Great win!!! To be headed a couple of times and get our noses back in front was the most pleasing aspect.

Chris Scott is choking on the Hawkins non free in the presser. Seriously. Have a bloody look number of non-free kicks to key forwards up our end. Suck it up mate.

Re: Saints v Cats game day thread
It was a bad miss...but the commentary team pegged it as being no worse than others paid/missed down the other end. I'll take it all, the lucky bounces, the 50/50 frees, whatever, after losing the 4 points to both the Hawks and North, we earned it. No top 8 scalp, eh?SemperFidelis wrote:Chris Scott is choking on the Hawkins non free in the presser. Seriously. Have a bloody look number of non-free kicks to key forwards up our end.
