No goals for Milne

Post: # 965433Post battye »

St Kilda's inability to kick winning scores was particularly evident after going behind early in the match, with Nick Riewoldt and Justin Koschitzke hardly featuring and Stephen Milne not kicking a goal for the first time in 106 matches.

Surely that is incorrect. How long has it been though, the first time this year?

First time since the 2009 Grand Final

He was bloody useless tonight. Had a chance at setting up a goal and stuffed that up as well. McVeigh smashed him tonight


Another opportunity awaits!

With the way we delievered the ball into our fwd line - especially in the first half, (bombing it on Roo's head) we needed Milne desperately to do something or at the very least be at his feet. I couldn't work out why Roo had to continually compete with 2-3 opponents all the time. Milne, Steven and Scneider were no where to be seen.

Thats part of the reason they are, statistically, the worst forward line in the eight.....too many passengers... :roll:


Season 2024 is where RTB is showing the footy world his grasp of the modern game. :shock:

Very disappointing performance by Milney. He boots most of his goals in junk time or when we are 10 goals ahead anyway usually so its not a huge shock he goes missing when pressure is on.

Blame cant be laid squarely on him though, the delivery up forward simply wasnt there.

How many goals has he kicked when the pressure is on, you have short term memory loss mate. Their were heaps of times Milne kicked goals when we needed them.

Correct, for all you lot that have early dementia, he helped us draw last week against the Hawks with several late goals.
