Re: Match Thread Saints v Tigers Round 23 2017
29 tackles in a half of wet weather footy just shows how lame we are today. Until the coaches address our pathetic inaccuracy and lake of endeavour in tackles, we are going nowhere but backwards from here, not to mention our complete failure to have a defensive strategy... I blame the senior coach for lack of structure and a PLAN!
This is a team game and there is no room for individuals who think they are above walking through the fire.

Not since the bright days of yonder year when Lord Watson led the lads have we seen such valiant and courageous coaching! Onward to season 2018 and beyond!!!

I decided not to go when Lonie and Weller selected ahead of White.
I don't regret my decision but very frustrating watching this rubish on tv.

Re: Match Thread Saints v Tigers Round 23 2017
I was a little surprised Billings has kicked 21/34 this year. Even 50/50 ratio and we might be in these finals. Some serious work is needed here, as he is the most inaccurate AFL forward ..

Yep. Very unfair on supporters.saynta wrote:My son, his wife and three kids travelled interstate to watch this s***
Richmond aren't even that good. We have not turned up and we are terrible.
Richo also continues to play a press which are clearly incapable of defending.

2020 was an aberration, when we travelled twice to Adelaide and won both, beat Tigers early, beat our bogey Swans. 2021 we've returned to our old ways. Damn

When we need to kick goals, we miss easy shots.
Think of me long enough to make a memory.

You pick Lonie and Weller, you must know it's a risk ... and you should be held responsible when it doesn't work.

Richmond are in with a shot at a top 4 spot - they've been ok this year.SaintPav wrote:

But missing shots like Lonie Stevens and Bruce have doesn't help us get back in front!!!
Goalkicking needs a good look over the off season!

Re: Match Thread Saints v Tigers Round 23 2017
Lonie is embarrassing.
Unfortunately for us he's not Afl standard.
Good Vfl player, does try his guts out.
Resorting to fake free kicks a lot of the time cos he's having trouble earning them.
Trade bait.
