Steele single handedly keeping us in it.
You could drop about 12 blokes from this team next week.

Re: Match thread v Melbourne
It looks like we are not prepared or something. Watching Hill for three pathetic kicks...I can't imagine what Mr. Ratten will say to them now...but it won't be nice.
You're quite brilliant Shane, yeah..terrific!

Re: Match thread v Melbourne
Two things
It's an emotional build up when you've got legends of the footy club presenting in front of our blokes and every player new Spud as well
The other thing is that every year you get poorer skills in the early rounds of footy

Re: Match thread v Melbourne
As frustrating as Hill has been tonight and for his whole time at the Saints I still like that he demands that ball.
Shows he's still backing himself.
Seriously needs a massive kick in the butt though and as others have suggested perhaps some time at Sandy is in order because it's not good enough right now.

This was my father's belief
And this is also mine:
Let the corn be all one sheaf--
And the grapes be all one vine,
Ere our children's teeth are set on edge
By bitter bread and wine.

Re: Match thread v Melbourne
What can you say? Terrible game. So many passengers, so much horrendous decision making.
We don’t deserve to be this close, Melbourne have been bad too.

Re: Match thread v Melbourne
We recruited Higgins to play in the mids throw him in there. Mix up our midfield we are just not working hard enough.
We have no energy no run, we will be lucky if this doesnt blow out in the last.

Re: Match thread v Melbourne
need to calm these guys down at the break. panicking and rushing too much.

Re: Match thread v Melbourne
Our players have been directed to give it to Hill at every opportunity and you are starting to see that they no longer have the faith in himroskilde wrote: ↑Sat 27 Mar 2021 9:24pm As frustrating as Hill has been tonight and for his whole time at the Saints I still like that he demands that ball.

The soft prick doesn’t even try to tackle, he’s got to go.

Re: Match thread v Melbourne
In the first quarter, deep in the back pocket, that is exactly what look like happened....and this is even worse, because it looked like Hill was not expecting the pass. He woke up like he was getting an electric shock. totally unprepared and immediately passed it directly to a Dees forward.saintbob wrote: ↑Sat 27 Mar 2021 9:27pmOur players have been directed to give it to Hill qt every opportunity and you are starting to see that they no longer have the faith in himroskilde wrote: ↑Sat 27 Mar 2021 9:24pm As frustrating as Hill has been tonight and for his whole time at the Saints I still like that he demands that ball.
