Yep, the umpires are cheats and their cheating against St Kilda is sanctioned by the AFL you know.

Surprised to see his DE so low, probably caught out by too many dodgy handballs like the rest of the team, due to game plan.desertsaint wrote:what? and have two or three more players passing at 66%, kicking 0.2, and laying 1 tackle?shrodes wrote:We need 2 or 3 more Sinclairs
Otherwise, smart and composed, particularly in traffic, unlike half his teammates.

Re: Match Thread Saints v Crows Round 12 2017
The umps might have cost us 2 goals, the carry on about them here has been ridiculous. It also defers the blame from the true reason we are playing so bad, which is not constructive at all.mullet wrote:Never seen so many blocks paid in a game.longtimesaint wrote:We were poor but the umpires were heavily biased -some of the " blocks" were ridiculous

Re: Match Thread Saints v Crows Round 12 2017
What an embarrassing effort by our team and coach. I know a lot of people think Billy Longer is better than Hickey but I just don't get it. Every ruckman Longer plays against is always nearly best on ground and has a huge influence on the game. At least Hickey gets possessions, takes marks and is a threat around the ground. Very disappointed in the effort. Richo keeps saying we don't focus on the opposition if we execute our game plan we will be fine. Well If that's the case he needs a new game plan because the current one is not going to win any games.

When he plays well I call it. When he plays poorly I call it. Tonight wasnt a good game for him. You are dreaming if you think it was.

Re: Match Thread Saints v Crows Round 12 2017
I think we will all agree that after the Sydney game we knew where we were at. Time to build something now for 2018. We are so far behind some of the good sides but there really is something to work with.

Re: Match Thread Saints v Crows Round 12 2017
see this is where you fall down Con, you made the call that he was a nervous bumbling mess when he clearly wasn't and then you suggest that I think he had a good game.

Re: Match Thread Saints v Crows Round 12 2017
I don't think we should change our coach, but I do think our coach has been really outcoached in the last few weeks and needs to have a few tricks of his own, it seems like we go into every game the same, we move the ball the same way which enables us to kick 2 goals in a half of footy. Other clubs have figured us out and we need to to something.
