Fat chance of Saints even getting to 9th spot right now.

How can Stanley just throw Acres out of the ruck contest with no free?

We have battled hard, will end up losing by 6 or so goals

Too often Geelong players have stood up in tackles and dished off to a free Geelong player, when it should have been a stoppage

And the young backs were exposed

These boys were playing with so much confidence at the start of the season. How the eff does richo manage to strip them of all this. for gods sake he cannot coach. He is destroying these boys. and if I hear one more mention of free kicks I'll spew up

Cue's in the rack now

We're years off an effort like Collingwood did last night
That's really how Richardson must be measured

We're wasting our time and in a holding pattern, treading water until his contract expires
How's that for an ego ?
How's that for integrity?

Why can’t someone punch Ablett in the mouth. Least make him earn a free. Most protected species....it infuriates me how many freebies he gets given, then everyone sucks up his arse. f*** the bald headed flog.

Another sub 10 goal game, and only 2 after half time.

Pathetic.

Effort was better, but still could only manage our lowest score of the season.

Let down again by usual suspects. Acres, newnes, Ross & Sinclair just not good enough.
Positives were Clark & Coffield. They were both good and have to play every week now.

Newnes and Acres delist.

Every one else good effort...good to see Hunter show some signs.

Another awful season almost over.

Collingwood get rewarded for tackling and gain momentum and confidence. We get no reward then get bent over taking away momentum and confidence.

I’ve got to stick up for Acres. Played as a key forward, played as a ruckman, played as a defensive player, please Richo just give him a run in the middle like you do Seb and Gresh!!!

Well, we had two Mids and two forwards playing straight out defensive roles. Never going to win like that, but the scoreboard at least is respectable

Look at it this way

Geelongs better players were
Danger, Ablett, Selwood, Duncan
Who at StK can hold a candle to those 4
If they were at StK they would be the best 4 players

How did Long kick his two goals again? :roll:

Truly clueless...

Pathetic.
The third quarter was pathetic I agree because we went into our shell after some umpiring decisions went against us and gave them the ascendancy. Too many 50/50 frees to Geelong. One of the most biased umpiring displays I have seen in a very long time.

Fair effort from the boys in hostile territory v the no 1 placed team

Showed fight all game against the odds and we in the game up until half thru the last

26 to 14 free kicks against - enough said

Clark was class all night - Gresh finally got busy - DunstN and Steele held their own and didn't mind the few glimpses that Coff showed - few mistakes but it will hold him in good stead

We are more than a sniff against the Dogs next week
