[George27]

Sinclair... 3 touches midway through 2nd quarter

Happy with that last centre clearance , though .

The thing I love about this forum is just the thought that some people might re-read their posts the morning after the game. And trying to calculate how many really mean what they posted and how many are really embarrassed.

getting ryder..masterstroke

[perfectionist]

One of the best halves of footy from Saints midfielder - and I've seen some greats. He has "willed" us back in it. It's up to others to respond.

Hind must have jetlag

[George27]

How many windows broken in the Jones' household both growing up?

None, if they were aiming at them.

[Impatient Sainter]

Being out coached by Melbourne, as the employing the tactics as Geelong did against us. Starving us of the ball with their zone and then chip slow possession game.

Yep. And pressing up when we get it in defence giving us sfa options to create flow and run.

Melbourne are playing the bigger ground very smartly. Chip go slow and make us work. Thankfully we got a couple of good late goals to go into the break with some momentum. Jack Steele is a machine!

Max again. Gets his hands to it but doesn’t hold it

The boys have obviously been affected by the Cho. The monotone drone has demotivated quite a few of them in that first half

Hopefully his boring vanilla talks are out of their heads for the second half

[bigred]

Far out we are better than this.

First ten minutes of that second quarter were rubbish.

Made the most of some chances.

[Teflon]

Let’s face facts we are playing Shyte
IF this side wants to be a finals side and not just a few game wonders team it’s now time to step up

1. Have to get a forward system going
2. Win centre clearance and it’s brings out tall fwds into dangerous territory
3. Have to take the game on - we play stagnant we are dead
4, if Melb do their slow build ups then man up don’t allow them to chip around with zero pressure - they are not that good and will turn it over

[Devilhead]

Surely we can't be as bad in this 2nd half

Lucky to be this close even given that we have had more scoring shots

Boys need to fire up

It's almost as if the ball force callapses his elbows inwards.

Fantastic half by Steele.

in the second quarter he had 9 possessions and a goal playing on Oliver who didn't have a possession.

Billings continues to look exhausted...bobbled between his legs.

Yeah see I couldn’t give a toss about drivel like that I just like good footy comment and people to have an opinion and not be spineless fence sitters but each to their own I spose

Or are you suggesting we are playing really well and shouldn’t be critical???

[The Fireman]

We are struggling against a lower side...they have improved..they bought in 6 players for this game and they look slick.

If we manage to pull this off ..... I'll be more than happy.

It is the closed eyes that worry me!

Spot on Firey !!!

[Ghost Like]

Elite Jack!!!

Really? Nothing about his pick up in traffic at half back?

I liked the through his legs complete miss better
Dominating ???

Dominating is your word, not mine. Who is dominating in St Kilda colours?

[Secret Kiel]

Sincs has 4 I50s and 193m

Billings has zero I50s and 30m

I just said something similar
As if when the ball hits it momentarily dislocates his shoulder

[Jacks Back]

Clark 5 possessions, Hind 2, King 3, Ryder 3. Need to lift
