Their delivery inside 50 is miles ahead of ours. Stringer is just getting on the end of it, if it wasn't him it would be someone else.

Re: Match thread - Saints vs Bulldogs
Wouldn't it be nice to have a forward who can actually mark the ball in the forward line.
Think of me long enough to make a memory.

Re: Match thread - Saints vs Bulldogs
Minchingtin has bought his non existent game today - he just goes missing for so long, and is then Luke warm when the ball is in his vicinity. Hope he gets a reve up at half time

Re: Match thread - Saints vs Bulldogs

Re: Match thread - Saints vs Bulldogs
So apparently you can throw the ball in a tackle, they cracked down on it at the start of the year and seem to have forgotten the rule, much like deliberate OOB.

Re: Match thread - Saints vs Bulldogs
Think it's time for a new direction and a new game plan. This one doesn't work.

This is last week all over again.
Turnovers and poor decision making killing us!

Re: Match thread - Saints vs Bulldogs
Dont talk about skills...I am beginning to think that Richo is a turkey of a coach. Steven and Ross went to sleep, we stopped tackling. The forward line is a joke...really!

Not the problem. We just can't kick it to them cleanly enough.Bruce G McAbee wrote:Wouldn't it be nice to have a forward who can actually mark the ball in the forward line.

Re: Match thread - Saints vs Bulldogs
Well it's definitely a different game plan than the one from last week- it worked ok in the first quarter.Bruce G McAbee wrote:Think it's time for a new direction and a new game plan. This one doesn't work.

Re: Match thread - Saints vs Bulldogs
About time Gresham pulled his finger out of his arse. Bulldogs getting some good support from the umpires

Re: Match thread - Saints vs Bulldogs
Sorry but we are getting an absolute reeming by the umps - cant see us winning this - game is too fast for the umps to pick up basic free kicks

Re: Match thread - Saints vs Bulldogs
Forward efficiency is woeful. We either come back out and turn it over in the middle of the ground or put it straight down the throat of their defenders.

Re: Match thread - Saints vs Bulldogs
Holding the ball doesn't exist for the Dogs apparently. Bob Murfy making our forwards look silly- who's the forward coach again..can we sack him.

Re: Match thread - Saints vs Bulldogs
Playing a small forward line hasn't worked. The Dogs flood numbers back too quickly and we don't have the quality of smalls to rove it clear of the pack.
In fairness to Richo, he couldn't play Bruce, not after last week's VFL performance. But, I don't think he has any other tricks up his sleeve.
