After all the dominance… 6 goals to 5 🤦‍♂️

Either team can snatch this, not that it really matters at this point…

Commentary laughing at the free against Steele then bemused when the GC player dived on the ball 15 out from our goal.

And Butler’s first?

Lucky he doesn’t get a fine for staging!

You cannot be remotely successful with this style of footy

Ball movement forward of centre is impossible with outnumbers

Like the blatantly called out Butler for diving for his first?

Footy isn't soccer. The broadcast rights aren't geared around nil all draws.

Don't the Saints players understand the business needs of the channel 7 network?

If you can't kick goals they can't satisfy their advertisers. That's how it works

They need goals to fit in a certain amount of commercials. It's that simple
Oh grow up

So what's going to happen? Sun's to run over the top of us, we eek out a low scoring win.
Or do we actually run away with it.
I would like to think option 3 will happen, but not confident.


Think of me long enough to make a memory.

You're right...I shouldn't be blaming our players

Do you reckon we'll score more than 9 goals?

Seems like we're doing a great job of trying to tank

The funny thing is that if we lose, Teflon will be on here telling us Ross Lyon masterminded it
