The really sad thing is we are going to get whacked by richmond next week

Not convinced the Tiges showed much last week...a pathetic Blues gave them a whopping head start before they began to play some footy.

i'll go thru the 25 new threads and 2700 posts tomorrow

We were short 4 of our starting 22, but shouldn't make the difference between a 95 point victory and 13 point loss..

Suns were short of their starting 22 too.

We were crap. Pure and simple. There is no hiding from it, and no excuses.

[CURLY]

Up by 12 umpire pays a ridiculous free to Ablett goal then a hundred goal then cheats and pins Stanley goal. Game over.

Put on your thick skins for Tuesday......as all StKilda fans are going to cop in BIG time.

Dal Santo again showed that there is no point having skill if you can't get near the ball. A pathetic game from him, at least Lenny and Roo put their body on the line but he was mostly unsighted tonight. Tonight was embarrassing, showed that we will be making up the numbers in 2013.

So how far away is Dempster and Fisher? But we had no big marking forwards, Maister did nothing, yeah Kosi maybe back next week. Is Sandy playing anyone tomorrow? Our guys couldn't play anyway not enough time to recover.
4 goals in a half of football, beaten by 1 player Ablett.
Sipposs didn't do enough, Newnes will be dropped, Saad didn't do enough, Mileera our best forward by a mile.
We fumbled, looked slow and old.
Have no confidence for next week now, even if we had won, those humid conditions will play havoc with us in the 2nd hald Friday night.
This is what happens when you give up draft picks to pick up hacks from other clubs and have a huge gap between your experienced players and the new recruits.
Mind you, didn't help with the absolute gift given to Ablett at the beginning of the quarter and the one paid against Stanley after he had marked.
Fair dinkum, they allow more contact in basketball, the rules committee is killing our game and taking away contests, these dicks should just leave the game alone, every friggin' year they get some stupid idea in their head so they can still influence the game because they are to old to play it.
No other professional sport in the world has seen as many changes in interpretation of their laws in decades that ours see every year.

We are officially a laughing stock. Lazy and pathetic. Fi eat time I can honestly say I'm ashamed to be a supporter of this club. Port I can handle..... Back to back loses to Gws then gold coast

shutup. if you are embarrsed don't follow us and don't post you fool.

[Wrote for Luck]

we were bad tonight lets face it.
don't know why Blake and Jones are still getting a run.
Saad was useless.

Right here...top 6 at the very least. Seriously, an astute football follower would have the Saints up there at the start of the season...we lost to Port this time last year and were unlucky not to be top 4, let alone miss the finals in 2012!

[saints66]

Embarrassing game by the umps. Have contributed to the farce this has become. Having the volume down doesn't make it any better.

always easy to blame the umps rather that the players and our poor skill level

you must be watching a different game

It is supporter like you that are the reason why you have never seen us win a premiership for so long. You give excuses for our poor skill level and except mediocracy by using excuses like the umpires for our poor performances. It happened last year against Port Adelaide and I suppose it was the umpires fault then as well.

Grow up and stop being so nieve. We spent a lot of money to send the whole Club to America on a junket and it made no difference as they looked as tired an as ever. Bring on the end of the season so someone please God can delist some of the unskilled dross we have on list and we start to rebuild.

The umpire conspiracy has been going since 1966.

Get ready for a long & hard season

Must say dropping Simpkin to play Blake was strange.

Momentum. Swing. Bang. Game over. Absolute bulls*** 5 minute period of the match.

[Wrote for Luck]

maybe we should save our money and go to Cairns next year to train instead.

[St Ick]

Umpiring was effing woeful, but we were worse. That effort was insipid and we were all simply blind to the fact that that team is nowhere near finals standard based on tonights efforts!

I get that we were 3 talls short down back, but we had a full strength fwdline and were pathetic. Of course we will be stronger down back and with Joey back in but thats no excuse for that display.

A preseason of praccie matches playing in the sun didn't help, but no more excuses. We just aren't good enough.

Nothing to do with the team not winning?

WTF, I guess you are being funny.

Well Jones did ok tonight and not part of the future but go for the easy targets.
