Match Thread Saints v Kangaroos at Boot Hill Round 1 2019

[realdeal]

What kind of stupid match committee picks just 1 tall fwd (Bruce) and 1 and a half tall backs (Carlisle and Battle) whilst only playing 1 ruck.

Someone goes down and we're stuffed (Battle).

It also blunts Carlisle's creatively and 3rd up opportunities. Bloody ridiculous and wr keep persisting with it every week.

[Jacks Back]

How wasted is Carlisle at full back just punching when Brown could do that

[Newman]

Great. 20 mins in - game over. Thanks for the contest Saints. Sorry ... I have no faith in a comeback.

[shrodes]

is it too early to call a 50 point loss ? oh well I'm calling it anyway.

Only 50!?!?

Could lose the first quarter by 50

[Linton Lodger]

Here comes the Coach killer.

[degruch]

Gee...who would have picked we'd be screwed by the umpires...

[Bruce G McAbee]

They changed their coach and we're interested in who they sacked. Massacre coming.

[Devilhead]

6 to 1 free kicks already with several missed our way and soft ones their way

And how come they could be in a game against richmond last week at same stage.

The coach must be mentally killing these players. Its pathetic. Someone down there show some balls otherwise my 57 year membership is over.

[Jacks Back]

f*** off Richo

[mullet]

And Carlton coming back from 30 plus points down. Wish we showed the same guts and that really hurts to say

[Ape_Man]

I wish we had had a big full back on our list that Richo could play.

[skeptic]

How has north turned it around. They were terrible early in the year.
Really??? changing a coach does this

We wouldn't know

[Stephen Theodore]

Yep too early, more like 70-80 way it’s going

No we wouldnt. Makes me sick

[degruch]

6 to 1 free kicks already with several missed our way and soft ones their way

...and now they've got a run on, the floodgates open.

Still don't know why people think Acres is a mid too, only runs one way, looks asleep

[Ape_Man]

Challenge now is to see if we can equal North’s first quarter score by full time.

I reckon we are 50/50 to score over 41.

[mullet]

please dont blame the umpires. We arent in this game. If they arent going to try either am I

[Bruce G McAbee]

Our stupidity as club has no boundaries. No leaders, admin sucks with no initiative or desire to be successful. This side is worse than the 80's.

[Bruce G McAbee]

Watching the Melbourne Carlton game, better viewing.

[magnifisaint]

Are we a chance for the finals?

[mullet]

At least in the 80's they werent full time players. These blokes get paid for this rubbish. Have a go at least.

[Newman]

Me too watching Melb v Carl. I never watch another game ... but watching the Saints now is so embarrassing!

[degruch]

Why not...they were completely s*** for the first 20 minutes, now look at the score. f***ed over
