Most frustrating thing watching the saints
It happens week in week out.
A lack of ability to score multiple goals while having most of the play.
Large periods of time we can be dominating play and yet we dont get the goals and end up with nothing to show.
Its so frustrating.
Apart from the hawks game they just cannot kick away and take charge of a game.

I'm almost prepared to declare that we're the worst coached team in the comp too.

Re: Most frustrating thing watching the saints
first qtr they reckon we went inside 50 about 3 times more than doggies.
Why can't we kick goals then?
This is absolute garbage

Yep we won all the stats in first q and were still losing. Forward line is just not functioning. I think we felt compelled to put McCartin in side after all the media pressure. He just doesn't have what it takes at present - I wish Bruce was in. McCartin not to blame but with Riewoldt out and our former best forward Bruce missing we look rabble in fwd line. Well .... finals maybe in 2018 - after next week's loss to Port Adelaide ... we won't make it.

We do the same thing every week, and execute it poorly every week.
Even when we execute it well, we still underwhelming.

Dreadful, insipid performance. I totally agree. Shocking skills, out-coached, lazy, terrible decision making. Wholesale changes needed. Starting with Longer. If he can't kick, what's he doing in the side?

But is it the forward line - or the way it comes in? Or both?
I don't think John Coleman and Tony Lockett would kick many in our forward line the way we bring the ball in.

For the President to boast that we're on the right track, is laughable considering the same problems we have now were repeatedly identified over a year ago.
