Richo.......
Time to go. Seriously...how many more games of that shite do we have to suffer through. Embarrassing he has survived this long.
While I’m at it...
Dunstan - list clogger of the highest order
Newnes - been there far too long for zero return. Incredibly disappointing player
Long - overhyped player. A tackle and fluke goal with5 possessions every week doesn’t cut it!!!
Kent - not much of a fan, too slow, cannot kick!! An arsey goal again doesn’t cut it!!
Phillips - typical we get the dud brother. I lost count of the times he turned it over
I could go on....so over these bulltish performances year in year out.

Re: Richo.......
The only two last night that were any good were Billing’s and Bruce.
Dunstan, slow, cannot kick or hit a target to save himself.
25 years old = 7 years of a absolute junk.
You cut losses at this level, should’ve been gone 2 years ago. We’ll stink until we ditch these type of players and bring in players who can move and have skill

Re: Richo.......
Annoyedsaint, welcome to Saintsational! Your fist day of posting - along with your tag - suggests you might be a troll. Which club do you actually follow if not StKilda?

Re: Richo.......
My mistake, Annoyedsaint - you actually joined the forum last October when you had a much different opinion of our coach:
Still don't have a single name of any Saints player that has wanted to leave under Richo's watch. 5 years now. Coming on 6. Still don't have anything (other than normal stuff) as to why a host of players have decided and were happy to switch over to the Saints under Richo's watch. 5 years now too. ...
So, why are you such an annoyed saint when have won 4 of 8? Better than the 4 of 22 we had won when you gave Richo that glowing endorsement, I would have thought.

Gold Coast, Melbourne, Hawthorn and Essendon- all distinctly average teams... in fact, they are absolute garbage, and if we DIDNT beat them looking at the way they are performing, you’d be mightily hacked off.

Re: Richo.......
A tad harsh blaming the coach....we were against last years premier with a seriously depleted injury list.
Thought Dunstan was good and Phillips was OK, of course it would preferable to field our 'A' grade players, but sadly we don't have any in the 2nds.

Re: Richo.......
Sadly we never draft any good ones either.
Trev from the bush 🥴
Please, I bet I’ve been a member longer than you and go to more games than you. We played so poorly, scoreboard never reflected the game. Shows WCE aren’t much chop by only winning by 18 points. I went home feeling like that was a 80 point loss.
We’ve won 4 games....yay.
Might be 7-8 at end of year...again, yay.
Show me finals and something that can be sustained and I’ll be happy.
8 years and counting.....5 under this current watch.

I’d check your facts as well Trev, grabbing quotes that aren’t mine, you might want to look at the reply instead.
Back to the drawing board.

Re: Richo.......
While I may agree with the general sentiments of your post I do need to disagree with one point - as a St Kilda barracker throughout the late 70's and 80's it was of the utmost importance to me that we beat Hawthorn and Essendon, and Melbourne who also caused us a lot of grief in finals in late 90s mid 2000s. With the injuries we currently have those were all really good wins.ss1986 wrote: ↑Sun 12 May 2019 12:05pmMaybe because he can see that 4 wins is like putting lipstick on a pig....Trev from the Bush wrote: ↑Sun 12 May 2019 11:59am My mistake, Annoyedsaint - you actually joined the forum last October when you had a much different opinion of our coach:

Gold Coast are also a far superior outfit compared to last year.
Those wins are the only reason I am not going postal after last night.

Re: Richo.......
Sorry Toy but “a seriously depleted injury list” suggests that we had more fit players to choose from. I think what you meant was that we were seriously depleted by our injury list.

Re: Richo.......
Richo is a good coach
But for whatever reason he'll never be a great coach .
And great coaches win flags .
We are easy beats interstate.
In 50/50 games we often don't show up ( see last night )
And in games we are expecting to win often are close and scrappy.
In all the time he has been coaching us , these statements haven't changed.
And i can't see them changing until we change the coach .

Re: Richo.......
How what works?
We beat Melbourne, Hawthorn and Essendon who are all finals challengers this year. Gold Coast have been a tough opponent for everyone too.
We only just lost to Freo and should have won. Another finals contender.
Plus we we were not far off Adelaide and West Coast who are top 8 sides.
I think we have done well to be 4-4.

Re: Richo.......
That the point Ted just because you beat a particular team on the day doesn't mean you are a better team in the big picture. We can all judge how well we are going at the end of the season, it's not a sprint more of a marathon plenty of water to flow under the bridge before we start making silly predictions IMOtedtheodorelogan2018 wrote: ↑Sun 12 May 2019 10:15pm Yep and we beat Melbourne last year and they finished top 4.

Re: Richo.......
....and we beat Carlton in 1995 when they lost 2 games for the year.....big whoop.
Show me consistent footy and not the dribble that we have to suffer through every week.
We’ve won 3 games under 10 points, 2 of those could have easily been losses and we’d be 3rd last which stacks up with the form. Change is needed ASAP.
Will NOT beat Nth or Carlton playing like last night.
