Match Thread Saints v Bombers Round 17 2017

[longtimesaint]

Acres should have been selected ahead of Long or DMac

[The Fireman]

beaten convincingly in every aspect of the game and to add to the insult we can't kick for goal. rabble.

Teams like these cheats will pass us unfortunately , god I hope we recruit well for next season.

[dals_da_bomb]

Thank god thats over.

[Devilhead]

Dont underestimate the consecutive 6 day turnarounds and the outs - disappointing but we arent this bad - season far from over

[Con Gorozidis]

Haven't done enough to shut down the Don's elite ball users, and has cost us

The Dons are ninth.
Let's not exaggerate how good they are please.

[footynut]

Embarrassed

thats what hurts, they are a hell of a lot better than us.

[Con Gorozidis]

Essendon own us.
They think we are rabble.
Our overall record against them is truly appalling.
Just humiliation losing to these ass wipes again and again and again.

[jonesy]

Big reality check and back into the second half of the sides. Poor selections at the table again. We have a big opportunity at years end, but if we f that up too then we are just another North Melbourne

Merret, Kelly and McGrath loved that game, don't underestimate how good some of their players actually are

Exactly they are up and down as any team in this middle tier - need to win at least one of the next two ...... even if we dont we are still in the mix for finals

Yes they were pretty good against Brisbane

[skeptic]

We need high calibre mids that produce week in and week out... 2 of them

So they are better than ninth?
Even though they are actually ninth?
Were you listening to Bruce all night?

Same old crap on here. Whenever we lose it is because the other side are the greatest side of all time and flag certainties.
Every second week we come up against these invincible sides it seems.

Same old crap from you campaigner. They are inconsistent side like us, and they have some good players. We played like crap, and didn't change out way of playing once
I was at the game live by the way,

And, are 7th? are we better than seventh?
Are Sydney better than 8th, get of your horse mate, loses happen

Very true. Their list is much better and the talent pool was obvious tonight in comparison to ours. Take away Carlisle and Roberton and it would have been a 100 point loss.

[SaintPav]

Good to see all the deadshit posters come out.

Must have lost the web address last week

[Joe Bloggs]

Are we the Schizo Saints?

Great one week, Horrendous the next

I can't diagnose the team, but, on the evidence of this blog and Big Footy, the supporter base is definitely bipolar.

Do you blame them? Five decades of s*** like this. They let us down at every turn. Whether it be home and away, finals or GF's. This is just another shameful chapter in our inability to deliver on the big stage. No club, not even the shitstains like WB and NM have endured what we have. That 's why saints supporters are a little tetchy. The only wonder is why we keep coming back. Pleasing, positive.

Hope ..that's all we got . Now man up and don't whine like a little baby.

Agree.

But they are still drug cheats in my eyes.

The suspension period should not have been an opportunity for them to rebuild.

That's a bit below the belt mate. There's honourable losses and there's losses. Tonight was an embarrassment, pure and simple truth.

[desertsaint]

Great win last week, poor loss this one - and already this match thread is bigger than the richmond one. says something about us - we love a knock more than praise.

No s***, Sherlock.

I've seen much worse.

Where are you when we're winning or during the week?

[SAAD]

Freeman and two elite mids next year with improvement from all players should see us top 4.
Webster and Membrey undisciplined acts also hurt us...unacceptable.
Goal kicking particularly set shots atrocious.

[iwantmeseats]

Another week of the coach on 360 mumbling his normal drivel. Not sure he has a pulse.
