Re: Rd 1 Saints v Suns - match thread
Really disappointed in Long... Three or four plays that were really unsportsmanlike. Guy seems to just want to fight. Lucky not to give away a free late for that high tackle.
A win is a win.

Man I thought Burgess was going to hold on to that hanger. He was that high up.

Re: Rd 1 Saints v Suns - match thread
Yeah thanks for making it close when we would have won by plenty. No idea how they end up with 10+ in a one point game.

Because we gave away more free kicks than them.

Stop blaming the umpirest calls were crap both ways. We got the four points so enjoy the victor. Based on today it's going to be a while before we sing the song after the game

Re: Rd 1 Saints v Suns - match thread
Long kept GC in it with that reversal in the second quarter
Very ordinary win against the worst side in the league with a couple injured
Good to win, but bloody hell, hard to watch

Wow 22 possessions not enough for you
Easily keeps his position
I love his work up and down the ground
You need to actually watch the game

Re: Rd 1 Saints v Suns - match thread
St Kilda's match efficiency = 400%
One point game margin converted to 4 premiership points.
No one can touch us.
Nobody will.

How good was the Josh Bruce “Leo Barry” mark

We won, but nothing to get excited about in regards to the season.
Think of me long enough to make a memory.

Re: Rd 1 Saints v Suns - match thread
Couple of the questionable selections provided next to nothing.
Pierce looks really slow and didn’t do much in the ruck
Dunstan didn’t do much all day - but credit for the attack on the ball at the end.
McKenzie was also pretty useless.

Re: Rd 1 Saints v Suns - match thread
Not much difference on the whinge factor - 23 of your last 25 posts were whinges about the saints. If I went back weeks it would still run at 90% anti saints. You must hate them.

Every win is a good win. 3 on the trot. Need to play much better throughout the year though.

You certainly weren't watching the game I was.
Inept, inconsistant and incompetent.
Their patheticness costs us numerous goals.
The rest of Australia can wander mask-free, socialise, eat out, no curfews, no zoning, no police rings of steel, no illogical inconsistent rules.

Re: Rd 1 Saints v Suns - match thread
Good to win, but sloppy by both teams.
Stuv and dmac will be better for the run.
Brown back next week will be huge.
I think, lewy, kent, joyce will be nervous this week. Battle needs to go forward.
Marshall brown and acres and clark in next week will make a massive difference
