Billings down back seems to have released the pressure on him when he’s forward...if that makes any sense at all?!?!

Have to say Lonie has impressed me since coming back. And Billings all of a sudden looks a lot better kicking goals instead of points.

Totally different.

Turnovers killing us.

Pierce doing well in the centre but they still get it out every time.

How so? Both late. Both players never saw it coming. In fact, Ryan Burton got Higgins straight down the middle, not shoulder to shoulder.

Same s*** different smell.

Anyone want to take a guess as to why Francis was gifted a goal by the umpire?

JB looking classy tonight. Lewie Pierce very promising, getting a bit of the ball. Longy robbed after got whacked in the back and retaliated with exactly the same action and pinged

I'm liking Pierce's work :-)
Looks more a prospect than any other we have.

Enter.... Bernard Shakey ;-)

Gotta hold on to Billings. Get the cleanout underway. New coaches and see what we have there. The kid has the goods.

Beautiful pass by Geary. Shame Gresham did not finish, but he did a minute later from great Armo handball. Good footy Saints !
