Stats.
We clearly won the possession count and most of the other important stats, but still lost the free kick count 11 to 19. What the f***.

Great performance and win yet the sooks are still crying!

Re: Stats.
I was at the game
Great win
Umpiring was pathetic
If you are criticising umpires after a win, it has more credibility
It was appalling

Re: Stats.
Yep. or just grossly incompetent . I will go with cheat though.
Not hard to notice that anytime the Saints get a run on the maggots intervene to slow us down or try to turn the game.
Happens too often to just be a co-incidence

Re: Stats.
Plenty of them blowing their trumpets tonight, well, i think it's their trumpets.
The list changes for 2025 have begun, always an interesting time for an avid supporter.

Re: Stats.
You know Dud, you post just as obsessively about the umps as Curly does. Seems like you actually quote every comment about the umps on this forum and weigh in on every discussion.

And I could hazard a guess why, except it would get me banned.

Re: Stats.
Yes. I agree. Are you thinking about starting a thread to thank Max King for getting injured?

Just trying to highlight certain posters spamming the game threads incessantly with no basis, which I thought was against the rules

I wasn't but I am thinking about starting a thread to call you a relentlessly sniggering bitch.

With all due respect Dud, for every post that Curly posts RE the umps you quote itThe_Dud wrote: ↑Sun 07 Jul 2024 9:21pmJust trying to highlight certain posters spamming the game threads incessantly with no basis, which I thought was against the rules
Every post from Curly on the umps is typically critical, your every response is either affirming of the umpires or having a crack at Curly
There have been quite a few instances where I’ve reached out to Curly and asked him to tone it done and his volume has decreased markedly but regardless, his every post is still quoted… and I’ll point out that his absence in this particular thread/discussion should also highlight that you both continue with the umpire conversation across multiple threads… just opposite sides of the same coin.
I’m not one for generally laying into the umps, blaming them for losses etc but even I wonder sometimes if biases/agendas come into play based on some stinkers of performances.
I can’t say that I see a great deal of difference between the behaviour you’re criticising and the one you’re engaging in.
There’s are a lot of instances on this forum where people are asked to change particular posting habits/characteristics because others find it disruptive or adversely effecting their experience on the site and forumites refuse to do it. Maybe it’s a case of having to better ourselves (I’ve certainly had to) rather than feeding into long standing grievances. Food for thought.

Re: Stats.
We got smashed on inside 50s and scoring shots though. They’re really the two most important stats (& of course, conversion).
Go you red, black & white warriors

Re: Stats.
Spot on. Our inside 50’s count was low. Only 41 to us. Sydney had 54.
We controlled the footy in the second half. A lot of running to provide a marking option. A lot of uncontested marks.
We also beat them for contested ball and our pressure and tackling was off the charts.
Great confidence booster for the team

Re: Stats.
There's one important free that gave us a goal.
Higgo's tackle near the square.
I was surprised the maggot was so quick- usually it's no prior and a ball-up.
I will take that every day and be grateful.
It was there, but usually we don't get those, while Swans, Pies, Blues etc, will get it

A real Sainter will pledge allegiance to the ❤ and despise the Pies, the Blues, and the Injectors.
