Re: Match Thread Saints v Swans Round 18 2017
The St.Kilda game plan
Tap the ball and pass to mid, hand ball that to another mid, the handball back and fourth before a quick pass 20m to the side, that guy handballs behind him before a short pass back where it comes from. Pass the ball to the left, handball one to he other to the other, oh oh we're under pressure, hand ball out the back to another guy under pressure, and to another and to another, quick pass the ball, some how we're at half forward, short pass to a contest, hand ball to a man running into 50m, kick short to a contest, TURNOVER
Sydney kick Long to the centre, mark, handball to the running player, kicks long to a contest, mark, goal.

We need a ruckman who can mark and kick and Longer is very ordinary at it

Re: Match Thread Saints v Swans Round 18 2017
I was watching at a pub in Perth (not with Western Saints mob- they advertise on Facebook but they only get 3 men and a dog- Perth Saints fans
are the WORST in the nation)
and gave up and left when Useless Billings kicked that point.

The softcocks are going to lose all 4 quarters tonight.
That's how we lose. All quarters. Almost every time!

Re: Match Thread Saints v Swans Round 18 2017
No plan B. Not even a good plan A. If you kick to the boundary endlessly makes it pretty hard to score. I don't think any other club brings it in as badly as we do. Out worst is putrid. How many qtrs have we now lost in a row? All while our season has been on the line.
And what a load of trollop after the Tigers win, all the we "clicked" stuff. The club has done nothing yet to think it has clicked.
Could tonight be any more predictable? Lucky they have not kicked straight.

Re: Match Thread Saints v Swans Round 18 2017
Rather than kicking to a loose man in the corridor we always go to Roo in the boundary.
Every time.

Ironic that this game is billed as the "pride" game considering there is 22 blokes out there playing with none.

tony74 said during the week
that the vibe around the place was just like before the Tigers game.
Yeah Tony...way to go...
tony thinks Climate Change is fake news. A massive ice shelf just broke off Antarctica, tony said "hey, there's a good vibe down there, don't worry about it"

Followed in quick succession by Parker ragdolling billings out of the way on the wing... uninspiring to say the least.skeptic wrote:Right there... Acres plays on from a free kick that would have been a shot and he... short passes

Re: Match Thread Saints v Swans Round 18 2017
solution would be to sack the whole coaching box at the end of the season and start fresh

Re: Match Thread Saints v Swans Round 18 2017
I bet you Alan Richardson is scratching his head in the box saying geeez I wonder why Sydney aren't passing the ball more.
That Lance Franklin, the most selfish player in the league. Any Saint in my team would have passed from there and that selfish bugger just went back and drilled it
