Match Thread Saints v Dons Round 21 2018

[Bruce G McAbee]

FREEMAN

[Milne]

Massive for Freezer. Good to see the lads get around him. Almost did it again

[SoopaSaint]

Is there a more incompetent, inept bunch of radio callers than Taylor, McAvaney, Ling and Richardson?

[Greg T]

Well done freezer

[st.byron]

Armo also been very good. Plenty to offer still.

[SoopaSaint]

Rules do change each week... and the lower side gets all of the bad ones. Game has never been in a more parlous state.

[The_Dud]

Imagine how good we’d be if we didn’t constantly turn the ball over! Ha

[saintsRrising]

Note to team. Backwards play = Dons goal. Go forward!!!!!!!!!!!

[SoopaSaint]

How dare Essendon supporters 'boo' Carlisle after what their mob did to football!

[SemperFidelis]

Umps did not cover themselves with glory in that passage of play.

Seb had his arm removed from his socket.

[bigcarl]

We can win this. If we use some resilience that we don’t have. In the words of Jack Dyer

[George27]

Such a deflating finish to the half. We showed a lot of promise for 55 minutes, and then just awful.

[Superboot]

After being much the better team...... Let’s see whether can come back from this

[Saintmatt]

Just another s*** 7 mins was it a Richo? Either walk if you can’t control this or sack your team. f****** hopeless beyond belief against a side 3 down. Shithouse

[bigcarl]

Pitiful finish to a half that we largely dominated or, at the very least, drew level in. Twenty four points down FFS.

[CURLY]

Well done umpires switched the momentum to favour the team the AFL want to make the finals race exciting.

[iwantmeseats]

I pity the people that actually turn up to watch this garbage.
Average $300000 and you serve that up.
Lol I’ll stay home thanks losers.

[Burkeyboy]

I’d love to see where we sit in the ‘points scored against in red time’ stat, we seem to have been mentally weak at the end of quarters for several years. Do we have any semblance of a plan to shut down the ball??

Only one team out there matters. That, sadly, is the irrelevance which is the St Kilda Football Club.

[Bruce G McAbee]

Within 5 minutes, our idiot players just hand it to Essendon through sheer stupid, lazy play.
Great coaching. This is why I am so disillusioned.

[St Loxton]

Jeez that mad me feel sick watching that last bit.
Went into their shell and stopped playing instinct footy.
All good attacking teams can sense it, they smelt blood.

[kosifantutti]

If I remember correctly, Ryan Burton was late on Higgins too?

It is amazing how the laws of this game change on a weekly basis though.

Totally different.

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.

Totally different

Same s*** different smell.

Higgins had the ball. Saad was nowhere near it.

[Milne]

Same old saunters, always sh*thouse

[StPeter]

Why does our team continually drop it's concentration in time-on period and give up easy goals?

It has been happening for years, but this year has been particularly poor.
