Thank **** the club know this
I’ve said a thousand times
Waste of time playing finals with this lot
Drop out
Hit the draft
Fortunately the axe will come and that midfield better get an overhaul
I’ll go spare if we spend all on TDK and leave that midfield rabble in place
Thread suggestions for New Topics
The players will be paid their full weekly wages and so will Ross Lyon...but everyone is really hurting
Rowan is one of my favourite players, but Ross and Lenny are setting up the team for these sorts of losses if they think we can go for a full season with only 1 recognised ruck. Especially against the monsters like Witts
Great strategy leaving out Hunter Clark from the starting lineup even though he's one of our most effective clearance players.
Brad Crouch and Jack Steele have been ordinary at their main role and have been beaten at centre clearance...but I'll bet my balls they both line up in the middle for the most centre bounces again next week.
Clearances lost 40-27
Stoppage clearances we were smashed 30-19

Re: Match Thread Saints v Suns Round 18 2023
There's no point worrying about missing out on the finals. We simply wouldn't cut it if we make it in, anyway.
Still a lot of work to do in sorting out who takes us forward.

Well….welcome to the bottom 4 for the next 10 years.
Deserve to be kicked out of the comp (and would be if the AFL didn’t prop them up since they can’t get their affairs in order).
How can a club get it so wrong all the time regardless of personnel in charge??
Look at Collingwood’s side. How is it possible we both have the same salary cap?
It’s just pathetic and most supporters don’t give a f***.
Probly the most unprofessional sporting club in the world.

Re: Match Thread Saints v Suns Round 18 2023
That’s the ball game
Midfield up there with worst in AFL
Seriously pedestrian and not much relief in 2’s right now can change that
Fix that fix lots of issues
Can’t win footy games losing that much contested ball and keep putting backs under pump all day
GC just walked out of centre with ball at times
Anyway be good to go next week - my tip? Clarko will announce his big comeback game !!! Just in time
We ain’t good enough that simple
Still don’t think Harvey is a forwards coach…

Re: Match Thread Saints v Suns Round 18 2023
Midfield midfield midfield. Been our problem for years. That's what happens when you don't actually draft any genuine mids for over a decade.

Re: Match Thread Saints v Suns Round 18 2023
I doubt we'll see a special Marshall thread this week.
We need a genuine ruckman who can at least break even at centre bounces, especially with our current toothless midfield.
& please leave the Sinclair move to the midfield as a late in the quarter ploy. Leave him in his AA position at HB.

Re: Match Thread Saints v Suns Round 18 2023
I’d say 2 mids be nice…..then add Owens to that mix as well
Another ruck who can tap a ball yes
Plus maybe 1 more tall defender….Battle looks a little lost at times for mine

If the senior coach has to tell adult footballers that have grown up with the game how to hit a target by foot and hand, we are in more trouble that we thought.

So who is responsible for a group dropoff in basic skill execution this year?
