Seriously you nuff nuff nancy boy soft c**k whingers.
Have a bloody good look at yourselves.
You are disgusting.
No injuries of any note.
We go in against Geelong on level terms.
Season starts now.
The thing that is disappointing is the fact that the same areas of concern popped up again in this match. Poor disposal, lack of attacking the corridor. The amount of time that the ball was being played in our back half by OUR guys was astounding. We were so scared to go forward just in case we got hurt.
You look at the successful teams and how many of them put in a performance like that even if 'scripted' and are able to be successful in the finals and take the flag?
Thats Mr. Smartarse to you

How do you know? There at the game are you? Or on the phone to Ross? Tapped into the player's heads, yeah?AnythingsPossibleSaints wrote:Have you heard of momentum, or confidence? Today put a huge dent in both.mullet wrote:yeah we really needed to win tonight to go from third to ummm well third
Or are your deep rooted insecurities just bubbling on through?
"The inches we need are everywhere around us. They're in every break in the game. Every minute, every second. On this team we fight for that inch. On this team we tear ourselves and everyone around us to pieces for that inch. We claw with our fingernails for that inch. Because we know when we add up all those inches that's gonna make the f***in' difference between winning and losing! Between living and dying!'

I say with the utmost of confidence that if we'd stiolen a jump on them early, we would have galloped. The only motivated side in a close contest would be them. Even if they go 2% harder, they're still gonna win. That's the way it works.
New season starts.
Oh. Pies lost today (you know the side Adelaide was unlucky not to beat last week in similar circumstances). Second week in a row they've kicked like a team of Clokes. Writing them off too? Are they insipid and hopeless as well?

Yes, just like you did: "may of dented your confidence but not the players", or are you too dumb to realise that? You did the exact same thing.

You are naturally insecure when you have been a Saints fan for 44 years. The torture of the 70s and 80s has left some of us permanently scared we hate when the Saints revert back to soft football. I want us to be ruthless and unforgiving like Hawthorn of the 80s, North during the late 90s and Geelong now.
To accomplish great things we must not only act but also dream, not only plan but also believe.

I have been a saints fan for 48 years and I'm not insecure. Last time I looked this is a different team than the 70's and 80's.

The Pies still played a hell of a lot better than us today and had a few good players out. Too many ifs and excuses here. We have half a dozen very average players in this side who don't do enough and get found out when our top line players have poor games. McQualter in particular is a liability to the side and has been all year.Thinline wrote:He was running the boundary at the end.Buckets wrote:Forgetting Fisher?Thinline wrote:We are so s***.

He has lost all confidence.saintkid wrote: McQualter in particular is a liability to the side and has been all year.
today when the game was still in the balance he marks 30m out from goal on not much angle.
Rather than go back and kick.....and last year he was the most accurate kick on goal in the team....he insteads dishes off backwards so that instead Gwilt has to blaze away from well outside 50m!!!
Mini has lost all confidence and offensively is now a liability.
Personally I would play Eddy or Steven instead of him.

Great post. That play by him said it all and stood out in my mind the most after today. I certainly don't like singling one of players out but he has had tons of chances this year. Again I watched little Blair for the Pies today who is a fringe player for them and his contribution to the team is SO far ahead of Mini's it's a no brainer. McQualter would not get a game at Pies, Cats, Hawks and other finals sides.saintsRrising wrote:He has lost all confidence.saintkid wrote: McQualter in particular is a liability to the side and has been all year.

The game was tight because they were up and keen, we were hesitant (probably for obvious reason), and we missed a few opportunities at crucial times.matrix wrote:just got home
seriously if anyone thinks we were tanking, taking it easy, and not to worry then farrrrrrk
we were ordinary and were seriously sussed out tonight
said win or loose it wouldnt matter
but blimey dish up that crap in the next two weeks and we would be lucky to beat the dockers
We played keepings off in the second half.
Read RL's presser.
