Match Thread Rnd 19 Saints vs Nth Melb

[Sainter_Dad]

When even the Foxtel commentators are saying that we are getting the raw end of the pineapple you know something smells in who-ville

[degruch]

It's not over yet.

We'd have to double our score, and hold them scoreless. Given we're completely on top around the ground and up against it umpiring-wise, I can't see where the improvement will come from. Fingers crossed though, it'd be the best win of the year if we do!

[Tom_Sainter]

FFS even the worst player in history to play 300 games is kicking goals against us

[goods]

if i hear record breaking night one more time....

[fugazi]

Block vs Brown...get stuffed

[Tom_Sainter]

You are f*cking kidding me, this goal kicking is not even VFL level

[Wayne42]

Hickey, a point from a set shot, these dudes aren't fair dinkum, the Saints and the Umps want Norf to win.

[fugazi]

Most infuriating game I can recall

[sainters85]

Set shot kicking is a fling joke.. Costed us the game. Quite sad really

[Tom_Sainter]

In the biggest game of the season and probably for the past 5 years for the club the players just didn't stand up under pressure. Absolutely choked in front of goal and don't deserve to be talked about in finals calculations after this. Too many times this year in big games we have gone missing... absolutely sh*tful effort

[The_Dud]

An embarrassing display of nearly every aspect of football tonight by us.

[8856brother]

So so frustrating. The same old issues. Those misses must just destroy the boys.

Going to get thumped now too. Shot our selves in the foot.

Running to the goal line is our only certain goals. Last 2 have been goal line goals.

[Playon]

Were playing North back into form

[terry smith rules]

you cannot play a hbf/midfielder on a giant like Brown

[Tom_Sainter]

2 of our 4 goals have come from inside the goal square

[Kick-it-lace-out]

Our midfield has been smashed.

[MC Gusto]

The boys have had a crack but we've been smashed in the clearances and goal kicking has been awful

[mullet]

too much reliance on Steven. If he gets shut down so do we

[Tom_Sainter]

When Drew Petrie starts playing well you know we are in trouble.. this is getting hard to watch. Fancy boomer standing next to someone kicking from 5 meters for goal to get a cheapy.. typical of the blokes career

[Wayne42]

We need to recruit an AFL quality spine as we rebuild, midgets in the backline and tall forwards that struggle won't win us a flag.

How come we are consistently beaten at clearances ?

[Playon]

8 mins to kick 6 goals. Plenty of time

[Tom_Sainter]

Surely Bruce needs a spell has been unlucky tonight but really had a poor year. Needs to find some form in the magoos

Its called Carlisel, Goddard, and Paddy.

[SaintPav]

Harvey is a selfish prick

[The_Dud]

Have we kicked a goal tonight from further than 15m out??
