So I’ve made my mind up on this...

Butler and Lonie. That’s the pair. Of all the smalls, they’re the ones that can crumb and make something out of nothing.

Kent and Hind should be replaced with actual running mids

Never want to see that happen to any player, really hits home after last weeks Spud CTE diagnosis.

That said, it certainly swings things in our favour.

Or a player like Parker (Ryan for the eagles) who is a threat in the air

Frustrating watch. Should be 5 goals up. Still no system entering F50. Bomb bomb and bomb.

Forward tackling pressure is first rate. Get some reward soon for the tackles.

There's a system, kick it to 30m directly in front. Unfortunately their defenders are already there.

Need to tidy up but we are dead set smashing them.

A few too many fumbles in that qtr and lets face it, their goals were kinda cheap.

Lower the eyes a bit and control the ball more. Pick the time to go quick.

Kent in particular needs to be cleaner.

Oh and if BT calls Benny Paton "Payton" again I'm hitting up twitter.

Saints 3.5.17 v Eagles 2.1.13

8 shots to 3. Kent fumbles too much and is not an AFL player.
Stop mucking around with the ball in the backline.
Have said it a few times before....Kent Schment

Two weeks in a row now we've been giving up an insane amount of marks in packs that should at least be 50/50 and it's really annoying me.


This was my father's belief
And this is also mine:
Let the corn be all one sheaf--
And the grapes be all one vine,
Ere our children's teeth are set on edge
By bitter bread and wine.
