Game Thread v Swans

[samuraisaint]

Disagree. How about someone dropping back into the hole in front of him.

[Devilhead]

Nearly 3 quarter time and 27 tackles on a wet day at the SCG is a frickin disgrace

[SemperFidelis]

Jacky Boy! Goal!

[SemperFidelis]

Great tackles Lenny and Billy.

[StPeter]

I don't understandd why Saints players have consistently been slipping over yet the Swans players seem to have no difficulty keeping their feet.

Even Roo just slipped.

[Bluthy]

We just have to work our ass off to keep this under 100. They will want as much % boost as possible. Have to congest it in the middle every time

[samuraisaint]

Keep margin under 100 and swans' score under 150 would be a small concession.

[SemperFidelis]

Shents starting well.

[sainters85]

keep it under 60 and score 50 or over

[3rd generation saint]

How pathetic and I mean pathetic that last lollipop kick into the forward line.
No wonder we can't score. Someone has to completely drill that crap out of them.

[samuraisaint]

Skills!?!

[Wayne42]

We're in line for a 100 point belting, it's like i'm back in the 80's watching another sub standard Saints team getting flogged.

[sainters85]

idk if they're even being coached..
Spread, skills, convert

[Bluthy]

Two good quarters! That's all we've been able to all year. The other two it goes to hell in a hand basket.

[spert]

This is schoolboy standard football by the Saints, irrespective of the quality of the Swans. A rudderless ship.

especially the 1st quarteres

[8856brother]

We are in capable of hitting a hanball target from even 1m, unless of course we are aiming for each others socks.

[samuraisaint]

This is where I call into question some of the decisions made by our board. They paid a coach out half a million bucks and I would argue that we probably should have just axed some of our assistant coaches instead. The coach needs to make a lot of changes in September and that includes surrounding himself with competent line coaches. We are inept right across the board at the moment.

[SemperFidelis]

Great kick from Stanley under pressure. Keep going Sainters

[Sainter_Dad]

Holy Crap - When the hell are they going to stop paying high frees and change the law to dangerous tackling - Stanley DID NOT impact Tippett in that rucking contest - Pisses me off - Make it dangerous tackling and all this s*** goes away!

we are where we are because of our ridiculous recruiting in the past

We kick it into the hole and our forwards get block..the opposition block when going forward and kick it to the free man. It's impossible to weight the ball when going forward for our players because nothing opens up / happens ahead except for roo lead with several players hanging off him.

[SemperFidelis]

Great kick by Shents. Go Roo! Again ...

[sainters85]

and we scored 50 and aren't getting belted by 100+

[SemperFidelis]

Lovely kicks by Stanley. 2 beauties.
