Match Thread - cats v saints

[evo]

Mav Weller probably our best player.

[MC Gusto]

40 v 8 qtr time

Multiply that by 4 and you have 160 v 32

Sounds about right..

Geez not far off at half time - 79 v 15 !!!

158 v 30 final score??

[plugger66]

We are an uncompetitive embarrassment!

agree. at least useless Lee is off. Hopefully delisted. maybe he's injured today but he's not up to it.

Like it. Good stuff.

at least I speak. my mind and don't hold back and just bag others.

Im pretty sure you just bagged a player of ours. maybe i am wrong. Also i have said we are to slow and dont spreed. What pearls have you come up with apart from this gem?

[FQF]

No structure, and no talent

[falka]

Premiership quarter coming up!

[Bunk_Moreland]

So another couple of years to realise this bloke has no idea how to coach?

Another couple of years to realise the pelican is really a DODO?

Someone needs to take charge.

This is an embarrassment for Lenny and Rooey.

Yup its all the coaching.

[clarky449]

This could be very ugly.. I don't see us scoring much at all in the second half.. Forward line is non existent now.. And Geelong in Geelong, they aren't going to slow down..

[ShanghaiSaint]

worst saints footy i have seen since early 2000s i really hope this is rock bottom... cuz another season of this? might be better moving the club to the VFL... sorry to sound so low but it's horrible. first time i have felt like not watch anymore.

[tweedaletomanning]

We are the least competitive team in the league and it is hard to see that changing next season

It won't change because of the following......2013 is 1999, 2014 is 2000, 2015 is 2001, 2016 is 2002. Simple as that.

It's pretty evident we are much worse than what were in 2000. This is 80's material,

The 80's were much better.

We had an up and coming plugger, winmar and harves.

[falka]

If this goes on all year, priority pick is a real option based on our list demographics

[3rd generation saint]

Once again we have a non-existent forward line. Everytime we go forward we are outnumbered 2 to 1, every friggin' time.
I'm sick of this stupid game plan, how about telling our forwards to stay forward so we actually have someone to kick it to when we get the ball.
This us looking like Hawthorn all over again.
I would rather we play man on man and forget about zones and other tactics, keep it friggin' simple.

So you want to get beaten by 140 points every week?

That will happen this week the way things are going.
The way things are going I don't if I'm going to a win before 2016.

So you want to be beaten by 200 points a match?

Have we come close to winning playing this style in the last 7 weeks?
Hell, teams are now resting players to play against us with no fear of any consequences, our play is predictable, one dimensional and so easy to defend, not hard to get a kick when you are 2 or more on 1, because that's what happens if we even get the ball past the centre.
By the time we master Port's style of play, it will be out dated.
We need some massive recruiting coups come October to even be competitive next year.

[plugger66]

Not a hope this year. We would have to win one or two games next year to maybe get one.

[magnifisaint]

Why sub lee!!! He needs game time, just pointless..

Cos he's no good. Back to the WAFL. Doesn't belong in the AFL.

[terry smith rules]

That was a crap decision to give that fag the free kick. A point is all it deserved!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

not sure who you are refering to, amybe Hawkins but does not matter. totally unacceptable comment. Mods?

A fag is a smoke isn't it?

Oh please ! People are frustrated, let's call the mods.

I don't care how frustrated you are, you want to start questioning someones sexuality with that term, then in any place that is unacceptable

[BigMart]

Who are all of our u18 kids?

Very

Billings, Dunstan and who?

Dempster 30, Delaney 24, Newnes 21, Bruce 22, Shenton 24, Simpkin 24, Ray 28, Hayes 34, Steven 24, Armitage 25, Saunders 20, Ross 21, Weller 22, Riewoldt 32, Lee 23, Billings 18, Dunstan 19, Jones 31

Who are all of the 18/19yo's?

Biggest misnomer going around ATM

We lack talent more than experience

Please tell us the answer then mr guru.

Let's hope A) you don't work at the club and B ) you never do.

Because you have LESS than NFI!

Haha,I just sent a near identical message to a mate who said we were returning to the 80's. I said nah we had a 16 year old Tony Lockett then...

[MC Gusto]

We need 2 priority picks first round and second round. And we need to make sure pelchen doesn't trade them for castaways and higher picks!!

How were we going in the first four week with a backline and young players like Wright, Templeton, and Geary playing this gameplan?

[Bushman]

This just too painful. We are getting worse with each week. There are so many holes in the list, it's going to be a very long time before we can even look competitive. Other than Nick we simply have no forward line whatsoever.

No one is U18. You cant be. We lack talent and experience. Surely it doesnt have to be one or the other.

Get of your high horse.. The word fag, gay etc is used quite commonly around the world now and it is hardly used in regards to someone's sexuality..

How many coaches do you want to blame?

Don't give a s*** if we lose by 150 today. We need to give the coach his 3 years.

You made the statement, you back it up. Funny how Richo could coach when he had the semblance of a football team in the first month of the season.

The St.Kilda disease, the players are crap, so SACK THE COACH.

Really so typical. No wonder this club has won one premiership in 130 years. Its a miracle it has won that many, with this sack the coach culture
