Robert Harvey blames St Kilda's flood
Sam Edmund | June 21, 2008 12:00am
FREMANTLE coach Mark Harvey last night blamed St Kilda for causing one of the ugliest games of the year in the Dockers' eight-point loss at Telstra Dome. Frustration etched all over his face, Harvey said the Saints instigated the mass flooding to drag the match into a low-scoring scrap.
"Our inability to be able to hurt them on the counter-attack, they wanted to play tempo football and flood and we couldn't pierce that," he said.
"It was an ugly game . . . and it was up for grabs, the game was there to be won."
Harvey cursed his side's inability to counter St Kilda's defensive mindset, which, at times, saw every Saints player inside the defensive 50m.

If it wasn't for Pavlich , it would have been a "no contest".
He should look in is own backyard. Farmer couldn't have played a more selfish and undisciplined game. Any other coach would have acted by dragging him.
Anyway , I'm glad he wasn't dragged beacuse he was a liablilty to Freo , especially in the last quarter.

Yeah Farmer was running around looking for Stevie Baker.
He wanted to run into the back of Bakes again to show everyone back in Perth how committed he was.
Poor guy could not find Bakes anywhere.
That's why he appeared so lost.
Sorry Farmer, Bakes was out injured.
Maybe next time we play.

When I was a young child, I knew that I knew so much about so much.
Now that I am old and know so much more, I know that I know so much about so little, and so little about so much.

HAHA gold.
So basically he's blaming us that he told his team to flood? Even if we were it doesn't mean he has to do it... but i good coach would try something different, not just copy the other side.
