Match thread v Blues

[sunsaint]

How the f@rking hell is that a 50 against Schneider - Daisy had not even marked it when Adam tried to spoil - perfectly good attempt - not late - if he got in the back then it is a free - fair enough - but not a 50 as well - the mark was not taken when Schneider spoiled.

F@rking pre-emptive umpiring - call what you see - not what you think will happen

it was close - but the umpires & commentators called it
regardless - he has given away two

[saintsRrising]

So frustrated after 2nd q of promise … in anger just ripped my saints shirt to shreds. I'll be a member for life … but gee it HURTS big time seeing loss after loss

Sorry newman, but that made laugh out loud . Go have a beer and relax for the rest of the day

I am havinga a beer. But I am not relaxed

[sainters85]

stanley been good? why? cause hes taken a few UNcontested marks and kicked the ball straight twice over 55m?? he cant kick or pass anything under 50m. He cant win OWN ball and has no strength or BALLS for a contested contest.

Your a f*****g piece of s**t, bet u can't take an uncontested mark lol

[Playon]

STANLEY AGAIN! just stood there watching. WEAK AS PISS!

Yay Stanley

[saintsRrising]

The thing that disappoints me most is how poor most of our experienced players are. They should be leading the kids by good examples.....

Not the rubbish disposal they are dishing up. I mean Joey...what has he had ? One decent kick all game?

agreed

[sunsaint]

But Stanley has been better today (save for the last contest in the back line). He's a pretty accurate kick. I really want to persist with him unless and until we have some other clear option.

agreed on his performance he is very mobile and having a crack
would love to see AR move Riewoldt into the backline & and watch the posts on his performance

[Newman]

Agree we need another FOX because we are going to need somne bucks injected to be competitive again. Assuming we won't win another game for season 2014 … it will probably be April 2015 by the time we win again. That's 12 months without seeing a win. And knowing many fans are fickle our membership is going to be down the drain in 2015.

[SemperFidelis]

Dunny on. Let's hope he can find something to help us salvage another quarter.

[saintsRrising]

If TDL was playing for his career....well we know the outcone.

Just does not do enough.

[Newman]

Good bye TDL … we've given him a go. 2 shots on goals for 2 behinds not good enough.

[jonesy]

Far to many plodders in the middle, can blame the likes of Gwilt and stanley all you like,but the end of the day when you have an overdose of plodders that rarely touch the ball it reads as a disaster. Then combine that with our two best run and carry midfielders who are supposedly elite having both under 10 possesions, it's lucky we aren't playing a good side...it would be 120 plus right now

[saintsRrising]

This would have to be the WORST game I have seen Joey play, or rather not play, EVER!!!

[kalsaint]

Put Bruce back in the team!

Agree We need to get games into the young defenders and forwards and throw the more mobile and longer kickers into the midfield.

[desertsaint]

Okay saints - all set up for a great come from behind win.
Or we may lose.
Great win or a loss. Odds in our favour in a weird sense.

[sainters85]

at least be competitive!!

agreed

they are judged differently
Roo just had an intercept kick in the midfield and a progression of carlton disposals result in a goal
if stanley or CJ did the same, the calls for delisting grow loud

[magnifisaint]

Saints don't work hard enough

[WinnersOnly]

The whole club has shut down for 2014 playing for draft picks only!

Great timimg Saints in one of the weakest draft years for sometime!

Or perhaps we a playing for dunbest football club of the last 20 years award.

Deplorable skills, lack of spread, a midfield who collectively couldnt run out of sight in the dark, older players who have given up.

[magnifisaint]

Gwilt is a dumb footballer

surely we gotta pickup some mature age players during the free agency period

Have you seen who is available? No point.

[sunsaint]

TV just showed uncontested marks 100 - 54 halfway through last quarter
that indicates work rate
