We just wanted it more.
All day.
SO proud we kept it up for 4 quarters, even after they threw the kitchen sink at us in the 3rd.

Doesn't matter that Tippa had 38 AF points - Macca should have got 100 going the other way! :lol: :wink:

I don’t think I’ve ever seen such an uninspiring 2-0 start to a season tho
You sound disappointed - why am I not surprised? :shock: I am pleased for the win and not a 5 goal loss like you stated.

Tippa was terrible today, should be dropped.

Go Sainters! UNDEFEATED SEASON STILL INTACT

This was a much better win than last week.
No we haven't set the world on fire but it is a major improvement on last year.
We still have to get better going into our forward line to maximise our chances.
We will be in the 8 after this round.

Great win Saints. Gresham's best game for the club.

And for the Sinclair knockers on here, he was second highest ranked player on the field with 112 points.

Agree, the delivery inside 50 is still really bad. Bomb bomb bomb bomb bomb. I reckon we'd be 3-4 wins a season better for correcting it (at least).

Why wasn't that a shot on goal? umpires!

Punctuation is important.
It was a question.

That second half aged me a bit.

This time last year we spectacularly lost a gimme in the most damning way imaginable.

Eerily the stage was set similarly but this time we got it done.

That’s improvement.

Yes that was the main negative for mine. Just a bit better in this regard and the dons would never have had a look in.

Dare I say it..it was 'pleasing" that most of our best players today were our young to youngish players.

I’d rather see us playing good footy and improving on last year. At this point winning or losing is irrelevant.

Happy with the effort & any win against Essendon is a bloody good one even if we struggled to compete as well in the second half

Unbelievable. Don't worry we'll lose one in due course, just be patient.

I agree - but you have to admit - that 2nd quarter was fun to watch!
