Anybody want to kick a goal from a set shot?

Big Mac is really starting to turn into a good all round ruckman. Never stops trying and has had a few good taps tonight. Could be the year armo cements his spot.

I was joking about Hardwick condoning thuggery... looks like I wasn't that far off the mark.

Just saw the replay of the melee before quarter time. Montagna and White collided in the centre after a bounce, White pinned him down with his knee. Turned into a scrap, McEvoy came in amongst others to break it up. Jake King targeted McEvoy (surprised?), Baker went for King.

Richmond players = dogs.

Team not playing too badly overall, just kicking for goal terribly. Umpa have been dominant for Richmond, beating our defense with ease

I thought they were each one of the 3 decisions that have cost us a flag?!

Big Mac looking good. Admittedly against not to strong Richmond ruck.
But has been showing good things in most his games.

Armo doing his thing under the packs, hard tackles and finding the goals.
But doing it more consistently tonight.

Very, very true. All night Joey and Hayes have been copping it off the ball and umps ignoring it all. They're playing dirty, petty football at the moment

hoping we turn this around

our entries have been better tonight.. need defence to lift... and accuracy to lift

COME ON SAINTS!!! LIFT!!!

I think this should be in Ross's notebook if it isn't:
Kicking from set shots practice needed....

Why did we get Paul Hudson onboard FFS...there's been no improvement at all. All the more frustrating that we have targets, are attacking and getting it in the F50, for no result.

Definitely. But they are going to need some help.

Nice to see a fellow mount dandenongian! Was raised in Menzies Creek.

Lets hope for a better second half.

degruch · Post: # 1054685Post **degruch** » Fri 01 Apr 2011 9:11pm

Richmond...no bench...will get get over 'em in the second half???

bigred · Post: # 1054686Post **bigred** » Fri 01 Apr 2011 9:13pm

We should win, but f*** me our disposal into the F50 again is terrible.

Taken many more marks inside than last week...but our delivery to Roo is just freaking disgraceful.

Damn we are frustrating to watch.

bigred · Post: # 1054687Post **bigred** » Fri 01 Apr 2011 9:13pm

Brilliant ruckwork by Mac...

shmic_s · Post: # 1054688Post **shmic_s** » Fri 01 Apr 2011 9:14pm

Big Mac a nice tap to Milne.
Kicks the first of the second half.

58 - 59

wasaintsfan · Fri 01 Apr 2011 9:14pm

MILNEY!!!!!!!!!!!

shmic_s · Post: # 1054690Post **shmic_s** » Fri 01 Apr 2011 9:15pm

Hayes injured.

Not good. Last man we can have go down.

At least armo getting under the packs.

Fingers crossed.

Ball goes end to end.

58 - 65

wasaintsfan · Fri 01 Apr 2011 9:17pm

shmic_s · Post: # 1054697Post **shmic_s** » Fri 01 Apr 2011 9:18pm

Jones warming up.

So looks like Hayes off for the night.
Lets hope its not serious.

bigred · Post: # 1054699Post **bigred** » Fri 01 Apr 2011 9:18pm

Dunno, they just showed it again....looks like an ankle....Could be wrong.

shmic_s · Post: # 1054700Post **shmic_s** » Fri 01 Apr 2011 9:20pm

Some terrible descions.
Getting beaten through the center again and again.
And no Hayes isn't going to help our cause.

Behind to Richmond.

58 - 66

Dempster again almost a terrible turn over.
