Re: Match Thread Saints v Demons Round 1 2017
guess we'll hear abit about mccartin over petracca, billings over bont, richardson over beveridge.
early days. we got ahead of ourselves a bit perhaps. woeful today after quarter time, but a long season ahead.
carlisle not ready, dempster should have been in ahead of brown, and surely acres will get a run next week. unfortunately over in perth.

We got wrecked in clearances, couldn't get our hands on it. Hard to win when you can't get the ball, and miss goals when you do have it.SMS wrote:Indont get it we smashed em 1st q. Did we get drunk at 1/4 time. We are a better team

The scoreboard did not reflect the game.
It felt like they were 100 points ahead.

Re: Match Thread Saints v Demons Round 1 2017
Our last three quarters were reminiscent of the first time we played the Dogs last season. Seriously professional player who only play one quarter of football in round one FFS!.
Piss poor!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lack of effort and inability to to do anything correctly.
What a huge deflater and such a horrible way to start the year!
Virtually everyone was poor and it is really a struggle to think of any positives.
Our new play on at all costs immediately handball gameplan today was just kamikaze like in execution.

We are a pressure act team... who rely on turn over...that's it
We can maintain that for a period, when the heat goes out of the game or pressure drops, or the opposition control stoppage
We get opened up, skill level and outside footy is below par

Lol that was absolutely shithouse. I'm ashamed to have rocked up and paid off that crap.
Might get to another game this year,might not. Could t be less interested in turning up to
Modern day football. Can't believe blokes get paid hundreds of thousands and play like total
Unskilled retards !!

They played our game from last year in going around to the open side of the ground when I don't think we switched it once. Really poor and disappointing effort!BigMart wrote:We are a pressure act team... who rely on turn over...that's it
