So we end up 16th this year ... and that looks very very likely. What happens in 2019 - do we really believe Alan Richardson if he said ... "yes 2018 was a bad year - but I have confidence I can lead the team into the top 8 this year." I hate changing coaches ... but let's face it when you finish at the bottom ... what have you got to lose in signing up a Michael Voss or a Robert Harvey ... I don't know - someone - a new voice - a new plan.

GREAT work by Hickey to win the centre bounce tap, THEN follow up winning the ball on the 50, give the don’t argue and set up the goal!

Surely Billings gets dropped after his effort (or non effort) today

Yep.

On the other hand, alas Billings is shot to pieces. Sad to watch.

Can Carlisle go and get f***ed. He is the softest c*** ever. Just doesn't do enough, ever. Takes marks when his by himself and can't pick anyone up. f*** off

Don’t get he hype with Carlisle.
Gets branded “elite”
Done nothing to earn that tag in my book.
Not even close.

Sadly no pressure on the seniors from the Saints at Sandy- maybe Freeman, but too early yet. Our midfield is as weak as p*ss today

And Newnes. Could White get a bigger insult than being dropped from this team. They might think about playing Ross in another position as well. Just cant afford three or four duds. Feel sorry for Clark and Coffield. Battle would have to bring more than Paddy at the moment.

First time I’m agreeing with the Billings bashers... but he’s gotta spend some time at Sandy. No doubt that he’s on a tidy wicket. Needs to spend a few weeks in the twos to understand that he isn’t above the rest

[quote="Sainter_Dad"][quote="sunsaint"][quote="saintbob"]Pressure or lack there of, through the midfield is what's killing us!!!

Time after time they have opened us up, do something about it Richo for fucksake!!![/quote]
Yeah looking at the stats were getting SMASHED in centre clearances but winning at stoppage clearances
Our onballers just can't mix it with good teams but when we can get numbers round the ball when can win it[/quote]

This is symbolic of St Kilda, if it is even numbers, we get slaughtered, if we have an outnumber, we win the ball, but then have nowhere to go with it.
It takes a team to do what a midfield should be able to do!!![/quote]

Too many SOFT First Round draft picks! They didn't have to WORK for anything in their lives - now they are playing AFL! Dream achieved. North Melbourne (from my observation) had 3 FIRST ROUND draft picks in their team last night... and a band of hard workers with a Game Plan!

Get rid of Freeman. Wasting time and money on him.

But then again... we are wasting time and money on... Richardson... Dixon... McCartin...

Sorry, I'll stop there. Was thinking about going alphabetical.

16 points down dubious free to Hogan game over. 13-7 at half time what a joke.
