I would not be disappointed if he didn't play another game for the Saints.

He's no Roo that's 4 sure

He was useless tonight, as were Schneider and, for the most part, Dempster.

Perhaps recycling isn't as beneficial as the greenies tend to claim.

If you are going to point the finger have a good look at Mr. Overrated himself. Kosi.

He is fast becoming very average indeed. Weak efforts at the ball, next to nil awareness and cant kick a goal. That boy needs a a long stretch in the room of mirrors and have a good long hard look at himself.

Should be looking at a pay cut unless he pulls his finger out big time.

We need to start a famous forum quote thread. Got a good laught from a few Saints fans tonight at my place with this comment.

eppo, you are one of the few who strikes at the heart of the issue. Our problem is the mid - 20's footballers who haven't gone on, and Kosi is the prime example.

How many footballers have we got that were better in their teens or early 20's than they are in their so-called prime? Shirtloads, and that's the problem.

I made a huge statement during that abysmal game against Hawthorn at the G last year. I said Kosi was starting to look like a bloke who wasn't a AFL standard footballer. I hated saying it 'cos I loved the bloke's start to his career. But, that career has gone nowhere.

Tonight we needed a target. He got towelled by Shane Freakin' Wakelin. That is an absolute disgrace. People can pot G all they like, but Kosi was far worse. He just doesn't get there.

Too many players who've descended to mediocrity, that's our problem. Good juniors, ordinary adults. Why in the f*** do I have to still keep watching Banger run games out while his younger team mates disappear of the face of the earth?

what you get is what you pay for !

or you don't get too much for nothing these days do you

I don't expect him to be a Roo but he really lacks that certain something to make him a reliable forward

Dont throw a blanket over all the recycled players Dempster was servicable and Kingy did look after the mids well in his first run in a while.

Yes all three were ok.

Gardiner in the last quarter almost got us over the line fora win.
