If we win this it will be an absolute robbery. Just need to take the game on!

Re: Match Thread Saints v Lions Round 13 2020
I don’t normally umpire bash but that quarter was just disgusting. Must be bloody awfully dispiriting as a Saints player out there knowing the rubbish they’re making up.
Go you red, black & white warriors

Re: Match Thread Saints v Lions Round 13 2020
Thankfully Brisbane cant kick straight. But we are playing nervous footy. Forwards need to take their snaps, defenders hold their marks and we are in this.
Umpiring wow?

Re: Match Thread Saints v Lions Round 13 2020
Lions have missed plenty but equally our decision making kicking inside 50 has cost us big time. Marshall from 55 .... straight to a lion. Need to clean this up

That King miss really hurt
Pbly due for a rest. Worst game I reckon I’ve seen from him... dropped some sitters and struggled with his hands which is unlike him.

Re: Match Thread Saints v Lions Round 13 2020
I don't want to say this but it has to be said, when the umpires do not reward tackling and allow incorrect disposal they are extremely poor and become a blight on the game.

We shouldn’t even be in the contest, but if everyone can dig in and have a decent crack we could nearly steal it .

Such an inconsistent rule. It needs to be fixed

Re: Match Thread Saints v Lions Round 13 2020
If today’s game shows us anything, it’s just how important Clark is to this team.
Appears to be the only midfielder aside from Steele and Ross that has that bull like quality

Re: Match Thread Saints v Lions Round 13 2020
Winning the tap but tapping straight to them is not helping
As ex-president Peter Summers said:
“If we are going to be a contender, we may as well plan to win the bloody thing.”
St Kilda - At least we have a Crest!

If you’re second to the ball and getting smashed in hardness and attitude ... just blame the umpiring...

Re: Match Thread Saints v Lions Round 13 2020
Hard to take single grabs when it’s kicked on top of your head all day and you’re a skinny gazelle in year 1
FFS he’s a tall lead up marking forward give him the space Hawkins gets to lead into at Cats and we’ll see he’s had 1 decent kick in entry all day??
We are asking him to body on body wrestle for his grabs that’s not his go and certainly not at this stage of his career
I do think our “bomb” into forward 50 at times hurts us
“Yeah….nah””

He’s up against a gun opponent as are his teammates upfield.

Look I’m not one to blame the umpires usually, ask Curly... but I’m with him today
