Think the only skills on display are the umpires bouncing of the ball, they haven't had to call any back. And the boundary umpires throwing the ball back in. The players skills are abysmal.

Totally outplayed and out umpired that qtr. Lucky to be in front. Need to lift. Tigers love playing on emotion. If they get the first goal look out.

Come on Saints! We have to beat this rabble. Let's hit some targets this last qtr on the 'G for the year.
As ex-president Peter Summers said:

St Kilda - At least we have a Crest!

Re: Match Thread Saints v Tigers @ MCG Round 22 2016
Just about every one of our players have picked out an oopo to kick to..Acres one them...want to share your dissatisfaction around or just stick with with Gilbo ?spert wrote:Total lack of leadership and effort by the senior players- a bad sign. Another unimpressive second half coaching effort by Richo- forward line is a rabble, and Steven looks like he's put his cue in the rack for the season. Ross about the only player who is having a real go. Gilbert needs to put on an opposition jumper, then he would have a reason for kicking to them.

Bring on the Benny Hill music. What a putrid, putrid game of football.

Gee whiz, that was grim stuff. That was a game you definitely didn't want to lose. Richmond really dragged us down to their level.

Re: Match Thread Saints v Tigers @ MCG Round 22 2016
Clearly one of our best, playing the role the club wants him to play. Not sure he missed a target in a game of comical skill errors. Why is there so much hate towards him. Dumbfounded.saintbob wrote:Montagna do the club a favour and rip your contract up, you are shot!!!

Re: Match Thread Saints v Tigers @ MCG Round 22 2016
At least we won. To quote the Comic Book Guy from The Simpsons, "worst gamer, ever!!!" Gee Paddy has had a shocking run with injury this year. From the first minute up at Wangaratta when he did his hammy, concussions and today's broken collarbone. I bet he's glad the year is over. Imagine how good he'll be when he gets another preseason under his belt and he can string a few games together.
I started with nothing and I've got most of it left!

Rubbish. I watched the game. Get off his back.

Three wins on the MCG this year. I know it was only the Tigers, filth and Carlscum, but that is a lovely trifecta. Throw in two wins against the dopers and I'm a very happy Sainters tonight!

25 hit outs to Hampson' 22
I might be wrong, but I reckon that is why he played!

33 disposals; 20 kicks and 13 hand passes at 85% efficiency in one of our "worst" wins ever.
Obviously Monty is shot. Make Saintbob our list manager and de-list!

3hrs of my life I won't get back!!!
Easily the worst game I've ever seen... I wanted to leave and we were in front. Hopefully the VFL will be better.
