King looks better up towards the wing. Get him running. Take the pressure off him.

It might just be me but SInclair is the most overrated player on this forum.

Re: Match Thread Saints v Giants Round 18 2020
If missing set shots is the condition for being AFL ready then half the forwards in the country should be dropped.
He was kicking great in the first half of the season.
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.

Said it last week and will say it again... next to Butler, Lonie is the best FP we have. Love his attack on the ball

No changes in the lead... but I feel like we clawed our way back into the contest side of things.

Re: Match Thread Saints v Giants Round 18 2020
we get a couple of quick goals in the 3rd and they will fold

We shut down their movement out of half back.

Re: Match Thread Saints v Giants Round 18 2020
Friggin poor umpiring has to be said
Centre clearance is key
And geez....Max is shaky in front of goal you’d hope that get better over the journey or it’ll really hurt in big moments

Re: Match Thread Saints v Giants Round 18 2020
Frees 11-4 our way so expect umps to even up in 2nd half.
The rest of Australia can wander mask-free, socialise, eat out, no curfews, no zoning, no police rings of steel, no illogical inconsistent rules.

Someone needs to get in his ear and tell to kick through the ball, he’s poking at it

Kingy not timing his shots well at all, hooking and slicing in recent weeks

We are fortunate to be 9 points in front at half time.
We really need to lift our game.

Get off kings back. Sure he should’ve kicked that one but to say he’s not up to it is a joke. The kid is a kid. Will be a champion

Re: Match Thread Saints v Giants Round 18 2020
Jack Billings isn’t a patch on what he was. I don’t know if he’s carrying an injury but looks slow and has no confidence. Hope he has a great 2nd half.
