Match Thread Saints v Tigers Semi Final 2020

[Superboot]

Chin up fellas. Swings and roundabouts.
Had perfect view of that goal. Even tigers around all agreed. Ump literally didnt see it cross the line.

Yes he did the cheat claimed touched.

Then again how does a AFL umpire miss the 50 against Cotchin on Jones.

Easier to believe that they just didn’t pay it than that they missed it. No-one missed it.

My kids have learnt some new words tonight, and possibly a deep disrespect for the authority of umpires, but f@#k it's about time they came of age.

Getting killed midfield,need a massive lift there,a few free kicks for a change and a few of those lucky bounces that the tigers are getting

The Tigers are making their own luck through hard attacking. We’re tentative. Tigers are pumped! We’re flat!!!

[The_Dud]

Lynch kicks that and Billings and King miss much easier ones. Not all luck.

To be fair, King’s shot was only half a meter worse than Lynch’s!

Billings is the senior player of the two by 5 years, he should definitely have kicked it.

Outside 50 and into the breeze, bit harsh I think!

Has been a very ordinary effort so far I expected way better . Richmond way too polished our midfield has been awful & forward line so dysfunctional. Our back have done a amazing job but the weight of numbers eventually takes it's toll . Hill Billings,Steele,Jones,Ross ,Haneberry ,Geary so ineffectual just haven't given us any drive or leadership,. Unless some of our leaders set an example we will lose by 10 goals plus. Obviously we can't win but at least put up a fight & show we are not just going through the motions & accept defeat because it's just too hard. We are better than this at least give it a shot

[The_Dud]

I can’t wait to see our blokes under the dome again next year, I think we’ll be very dangerous

[seano1]

Lonie , Sinclair, kent , hill doing fa ...at least marsh is busting his gut

[saintkid]

Bad idea to put Battle back on with that foot injury.
Potential long term damage doing that.
Should not have been selected

Exactly. Battle is a good player but obviously was a big gamble to bring him in.

[bigred]

We had no backline for half that quarter. Ease up.

Dont let this jade what has been a very enjoyable season. Keep the glass half full.

Whatever Dud. So, what do we say for Richmond's goals? Excuses don't cut it. Never get anywhere that way.

[skeptic]

Marsh and Kent have been no worse than some others who are much more highly touted. DownHILL skier, some refer to him as elite. Pffffft!

Posts like this frustrate the heck out of me...

How many bad games on row does Kent need to play? Hill actually has good games

[The_Dud]

Probably stop bombing it to massively outnumbered contests

[Winmore]

Apologies, he laid a tackle.

[SaintJohno]

How many times does King have to be held before the umpires notice?

[Winmore]

Go Josh

[bigcarl]

Battle. Should have started forward

Just one of those nights

Night night saints

[iwantmeseats]

Lol. Whatever. See ya in 21

[Winmore]

Lynch is a f ing dog

[The_Dud]

One of the umps is clearly not in on the conspiracy!

Can’t buy a goal though. No one to blame but ourselves!

[Wayne42]

Saints set shots at goal are woeful, 1 goal 5 so far

[Kate]

See the knee from Lynch? Deck the dog.

[saintkid]

Lynch is a f ing dog

He HAS to go for that knee in the head!

[The_Dud]

Keep that head over the ball Hill
