No one's blaming the umpires, but that doesn't mean that they weren't plucked directly from the North Melbourne cheersquad.

Re: Match Thread Saints v Kangaroos at Boot Hill Round 1 2019
What a joke.
Yeah it’s the umps fault our blokes look slow, that North are just running right around them, putting in zero effort, and kicking 1 goal to 7.
What a cop out.

Umpire Foot (number2) does it again. I have lost count of the number of games he has crucified us in. He personally awarded 7 frees against us in the first quarter and gifted them 3 goals. He has yet to give us a free of course.

Re: Match Thread Saints v Kangaroos at Boot Hill Round 1 2019
How was the last minute of the Melbourne Carlton game lol, beats watching this crap
Re: Match Thread Saints v Kangaroos at Boot Hill Round 1 2019
This is embarrassing.
So many broken tackles and skill level is disgusting.
Seb Ross cannot remains captain but sadly not sure who takes over.
Players who have been around for 5 years now such as Acres, Dunstan, McKenzie, Billings, Newnes have no leadership qualities at all.

Re: Match Thread Saints v Kangaroos at Boot Hill Round 1 2019
68 possessions for the quarter to 108.
That has to be a record low, I can’t be bothered looking it up so I will just believe it.

Will be well over 100. Battle is a player we can I’ll afford to lose.
Carlisle massive flog and overrated, he’s ok when he can play on his own in the backline, but he’s a defender who doesn’t defend, and he is like the queen mary.
Membrey competing with Tarrant, there’s the issue with our front half, a number three forward playing as a number one.
Midfield getting another lesson, not sure Dunstan or Acres have had an effective disposal

Re: Match Thread Saints v Kangaroos at Boot Hill Round 1 2019
The only one f ing us over is ourselves.
As I said I am not attending another game that Richardson coaches.
Yes he isn't the only problem, it goes deeper than just that and there has to be a major shake up of the club in all levels before we can go forward.

Gresham 1 possession Acres 2 Steele 2 Parker 0 Hind 0 Carlisle 0 Dunstan 4 Ross 4
North have 15 players against our 4 with more or the same number of possessions

Absolute rubbish dont blame the umpires our players at best are local footy standard.
The broom needs to come out and a good clean up needs to happen starting at the top.Finnis Lethlean and Co.

Seb just blatantly grabs the North players arm right in front of goal and you sooks complain it’s the umpires fault ![Rolling Eyes :roll:](./images/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif)

10-3 four goals from frees. Umpire 2 blatantly cheated then tries to play the tough guy and pins Carlisle.

Except no-one said that...any chance you can watch the footy and formulate an opinion on something other than umpiring?
