Re: Match Thread Saints vs Dees
We are an embarrassment.
How can they be outnumbering us in every position on the ground??

Re: Match Thread Saints vs Dees
I can just hear the Coach's Message now... we need to improve some of our key indicators... we went away from our structure... they wouldn't let us play our game... we didn't bring our 'A' game... Instead of - there are a few players who will not be with us next year... if you can't harden-up over summer - move on... it is my fault - I am new at this caper...

Re: Match Thread Saints vs Dees
already turned off the volume as Drained Muscle will be choading soon. Very close to turning it all off. Utterly disappointing after being pumped all week for this

Re: Match Thread Saints vs Dees
As I said goodbye 2017. Our game plan is so predictable first season coach is out coaching ours.
Major changes over the off season required.

Has one of Ross's possessions found a Saint? Woeful.

Re: Match Thread Saints vs Dees
And the rose coloured glasses are well and truly off. Huge reality check of just how far off we really are. The truth hurts..an awful bloody lot.

Re: Match Thread Saints vs Dees
Should not be a surprise really.
We are easy to coach against. Our game plan is to 'try hard' which assumes the other team isnt trying hard also.
When we come up against any side that both tries hard and has skill - then we lose.
Simple as that.

Re: Match Thread Saints vs Dees
Continually losing the ball through half back and no one home when we get it past half forward. Seriously need to tinker with the structure to have any hope.
Dees using the width way, way better than us.

Re: Match Thread Saints vs Dees

Re: Match Thread Saints vs Dees
So we didnt open well.
I expect some deadset improvement for the remaining 3.
Not about the finals. Its about improvement and respect.
They get paid for this. That was woeful.

Re: Match Thread Saints vs Dees
Our structure is a mess all over the field. Our only consolation is that the Dees blew another 4-5 chances going forward, so the scoreline could be even worse!

Re: Match Thread Saints vs Dees
Richo is the best coach ever. Everyone on here wants him signed until 2020 to give us 'stability'.The Recruit wrote:So s***
Can't defend against momentum.
Our coaches have no idea.
He will give us stability all right. We will be reliably s***. Nice and stable in 10th or 11th on the ladder. Nice and stable low membership. Nice and stable low crowds.

Re: Match Thread Saints vs Dees
Lazy players doesn't help, exactly the same as last week, you may not be able to kick but you should be able to at least run.

Re: Match Thread Saints vs Dees
I'd pull the trigger now and put Carlisle up forward - they don't have any monsters that are going to cause damage up forward, their midfielders are carving us up.
It's worth a try...

Re: Match Thread Saints vs Dees
No use blaming the coaches with such an insidid unskilled slow moving and brainless outfit on the field they have nothing to work with. The saying goes you can't make a silk purse out of pig s***. If Kelly is watching he will have put a big cross through St Kilda

Re: Match Thread Saints vs Dees
sad to say whenever we've started like this it's remained like this, oh we might win a quarter, but it won't make you feel any better.
