Yeah couldn't have played much worse. Joey I'm afraid has to be moved on you live in fear when he has the ball.

Re: An absolute JOKE!!!
I was there in the eighties too, BM. Have you forgotten the first three rounds of 1985? Three consecutive 100 + losses. As bad as they were today, and they were very ordinary, we have suffered plenty of devastating losses over the journey that make today look like a premiership by comparison. A win is a win is a win. As Yabby would've said, "we were just glad to get the four points". Sums up my feelings exactly. Move along folks. Next week, here we come. Equal 9th, I believe.
I started with nothing and I've got most of it left!

History shows me you are very easily embarrassed.

I have been saying this to myself for the past 2 seasons. His hospital handballs just make me sick. He has been a wonderful servant to the club, but I think the game has passed him by.CURLY wrote:Yeah couldn't have played much worse.

Re: An absolute JOKE!!!
Hey White Winmar ... gotta confess that was the worst I've felt as a supporter when we list that 3rd game by 100. But yes this was a disappointing win. Fortunately for us Essendon made some big mistakes which cost them.

Re: An absolute JOKE!!!
And if we beat Melbourne we'll probably be outright 9th! The top 8 teams will stay the top 8 teams and just shufle amongst themselves but for us to be in 9th seems a bit outrageous considering how bad some of our performances have been.White Winmar wrote:I was there in the eighties too, BM.

Re: An absolute JOKE!!!
At least in the 80s we were the worst team
Tonight we should have been beaten by a team worse the Fitzroy of 96
They have 12 out suspended
Their ruckman out
The bloke leading the B&F out
The performance was insipid!
Any other AFL team except Brisbane would have beaten Essendon by 15 goals. We we lucky to win, and personally I would have preferred a loss
They deserved it... We deserved to LOSE so the players got what they deserved!!!

Re: An absolute JOKE!!!
If my memory serves me correctly we beat a full strength Bombers last year by over 100 points.
The game today was pathetic considering the standard of the opposition.
Found it extremely hard to watch.

Re: An absolute JOKE!!!
Are you seriously calling stk a good team... Seriously
As soon as they lost Luenberger and Zaharakis they became a VFL team
Gwilt, Dea, Hams, Brown, Ambrose, The full back, The ruckman, a bunch of kids and Kelly and Cooney
Really
They had 4 or 5 blokes that would even make a afl list playing

Re: An absolute JOKE!!!
Well done Saints! Took my son to his first AFL game and it went down to the wire. Nice for him to experience the emotion of a near loss. Pretty awful game but we loved it!

Re: An absolute JOKE!!!
Insipid performance against what is a VFL standard team.
Any other team in the comp would have beaten us by 10 goals plus. Essendon kick straight we lose, at least in the 80's we had a dip.
Richo needs to read the riot act and make a statement at the selection table.
We are miles off being a good team, need some real class in the midfield and another key defender.

Re: An absolute JOKE!!!
Almost as many outs as
Watson, Hurley, Hocking, Hooker, Myers, Zaharakis, Heppell, Stanton, Bellchambers, Luenberger, Colyer, Hibberd

What's Goddard proven or shown to be classed as a "big out"?CURLY wrote:Fisher Carlisle Goddard Webster McCartin Billings all big outs we need in.

Re: An absolute JOKE!!!
PEDESTRIAN!!! LAZY!!!! INEPT!!! Diabolical skills. No shepherding. Weak forward defence. A couple of big names need to be dropped lead by Bruce who won't chase, doesn't lead into space and lopes around finger-pointing. Gilbert is a concern every time he gets the ball and so are Montagna and Delaney. Woeful performance. Sadly, we play a stop start boring brand of football. Get some games into young fellas.

I'm having a laugh after a win. It was either that or a hissy fit. But others seem to have that covered.BigMart wrote:Are you seriously calling stk a good team... Seriously
