I found Craig's comment before the game quite telling.
The Ch10 interviewer asked Neil what sort of 'G'-up he gave his boys before the game.
Craig responded simply, in that high-pitched circus squeak of his, "None". He said the days of the G-up were all but over, that they had covered all their bases and prepared well during the week.
So - the days of a coach, the leader of the club, motivating his team on gameday are over?
I think not Neil.
Also why was the great psychologst Niel Craig outtought by the Saints when it came to core temperature management of the players and left the Adelaide players in the heat at qtr and three qtr time?
And another thing. Why can this "great coach" Craig win a big match. Seems to me he may be innovative and a good manager, but lacks a bit when it comes to the crunch.
I'll tell you why. Becuase Neil Craig is a demented gnome who should hop back on his tricyle and just F*** off.

what a tool....
Corey Wingard I think
Is he from Narre Warren !!
I think the name Corey has been forever tarnished because of that schmuck.
Would expain the rose-coloured glasses he was obviously wearing when he gave his report...probably still refusing to take them off too!

If they are so fit and well drilled what is St Kilda??
Yes I was getting pretty sick of hearing her mention how "tired" stkilda looked as opposed to the super fit crows

Even funnier was his comment that he didn't rate us because we rely on a bloke who's 36!
if you look again at the last 10 minutes then sadly i think he might have a point
Sadly?
Won't be sad when we win the flag with Banger leading the charge.
s***, the only thing better than a St Kilda flag would be a St Kilda flag with Rob Harvey with a Norm Smith around his neck. Stuff of legend.
Here here.
A premiership without Harvs would almost be hollow....
Craig might want to start rating us we have beaten his team in a few big games now....
Neale Craig is the most overrated coach in the business. In 2005 Adel were the best team in the comp and didn't get to the grandfinal ditto 2006 where they were 1 of the better teams and missed again...
biggest underachievers in the AFL currently... amazing how he's escaped the scrutiny

I don't think so.
I'm sorry, I love Robert Harvey as much as the next dyed in the wool Sainter, but a Flag is a Flag regardless of who plays in it.
It would be better with him than without, but I'd celebrate just as hard either way.

Well going by the footage of him in the last quarter...he wanted to win....and was mightilly annoyed that they lost.
Flying the World in comfort thanks to FF Points....
The only player I saw cramp up was Wunderkind boy Tippett, who is 20 years old and never ventured more than 20m from goal the whole night> Banger ran more than him just getting to and from the huddles
