It's always the coach's fault.SaintDippa wrote: ↑Sun 25 Apr 2021 9:55pm Time for the club to tap Ratts on the shoulder. Thanks but no thanks.
Time to tap the recruiters on the shoulder ... the balance isn't right - they've recruited too many of the same type of players - too many small forwards, too many inside midfielders and a team with average pace and below average skills.

Crouch and Jones.... 1 tackle between them. In the thick of the action all night.
Beggars belief.

Re: Match Thread Saints v Power Round 6 2021
we never start, start start, we're falling apart
our histories there for the giggles,
we've got no power to win, we always give in
good old st kilda patheticism.
st kilda!

Re: Match Thread Saints v Power Round 6 2021
More chance of that than the other way around, Max should do it before his career is ruined.
The Saints are under review, will it make any difference to the underachievers ?

Re: Match Thread Saints v Power Round 6 2021
from thinking top 4 to getting thrashed every week ????
Is this some sort of sick joke ? Was coming down to Melb for the Hawks game.....I have better things to do with my life.
The club must be concerned...membership will drop off dramatically

Re: Match Thread Saints v Power Round 6 2021
Dash and speed off half back and through the middle, nah, who’d want that!! We’ve got Kent though

Re: Match Thread Saints v Power Round 6 2021
Thought similar but Sinclair uses it ok and started to win his own ball I’d persist with him in the middle
Hunter Clarke looks painfully slow....
We need some zip with ball using class who can actually spread from a contest.
We’re a b Grade side right now.

Re: Match Thread Saints v Power Round 6 2021
It all boils down to poor recruiting
Savage had zip.

Yep this is clear - who is in charge of our fitness?
It’s the worst I have ever seen

Re: Match Thread Saints v Power Round 6 2021
Ratts wants the players to be accountable, I saw a lot more effort tonight but no plan, no semblance of system whatsoever. I want Ratts to be accountable and explain to the fans why we have lots of footballers (professionals who presumably know how to play) but no team.

Re: Match Thread Saints v Power Round 6 2021
we should have Fluro jumpers ...at least we would look more like witches hats.
When Port spread we were nowhere to be seen...when we had the ball we were molested. We have no run. we are a very poor side atm.
it is f****** sad.
We thought for a moment Ratts was the answer.....now I can't remember the question.

Re: Match Thread Saints v Power Round 6 2021
Samoht is on the money recruiting has been poor to many plodders, had a chance at Rozee, Petraca and the Bont but preferred others. Time to start at the mid season draft and add some pace and skill. Watched Sandy Saturday and there’s not much there so it’s a long haul to field a competitive team.

are you serious?
Essendon are borderline B/C grade and they beat us by 12 goals!

Re: Match Thread Saints v Power Round 6 2021
To be fair I expected a loss tonight but was hoping for a 5/6 goal loss but not another shellacking

Re: Match Thread Saints v Power Round 6 2021
There are so many examples of pathetic list management decisions. Keeping Kent and trading Hind is another idiotic one.
