[saintbob]

That’s what we wanna see Bradley, well f****** done!!!

[skeptic]

Geeez Byrnes looks a gem doesn’t he

Composed in traffic

[desertsaint]

Byrnes Burned them!!!

very nice moves by byrnes.

[MC Gusto]

Gee whiz a lady finger touch and he goes arse over

[CURLY]

Yep as expected get 8 points up umpire plucks a free out of the ruck allows Geelong too goal. Cheats

[roskilde]

That is not a bloody free kick.

[CURLY]

Gee whiz a lady finger touch and he goes arse over

What about the free against Ryder? Cheating.

[Impatient Sainter]

FFS we do all the right things and then give a panicked stupid free kick away in defence.

[The_Dud]

Curly - like anyone here or at the footy you can complain about the umpires as you see fit but please do not accuse them of cheating

[The_Dud]

We’re playing well, Geelong not so much, wish we were 11.3!!!

[desertsaint]

well done saints - kept your heads up!

[B.M]

Seb Ross has gone to Smith I think

[Impatient Sainter]

We’re playing well, Geelong not so much, wish we were 11.3!!!

We should be at least 5 goals up, we are all over them. It's the best we've played all year, if only we could finish our work. If we lose this game it won't be through lack of effort.

[The Fireman]

Despite the gut wrenching Misses they have persevered
Good signs. Our pressure and tackling is incredible.
Well done to the boys

[SaintPav]

Byrnes Burned them!!!

He’s good.

[Beno88]

It’s all back slaps and well dones for now, but if we get done by less than a few goals, we’ll have beaten ourselves.

[SaintPav]

Yes.

If we keep this up we will break them.

A big if.

[Impatient Sainter]

Just had a look at the stats you wouldnt think Geelong would have had more possessions than us, but we are winning all the other parts of the game.

[bangaulegend]

The effort has been sensation & the execution has been pretty good umpiring has been f-----g sh-- . We should be at least 6 goals in front at least so all that hard running will eventually wear us down but very happy with the effort amazing really . Go Sainters keep on keeping on

[Greg T]

Luke hodge can get stuffed as well,makes me ill listening to his bulls***

Don’t think it’s cheating. Fisher umpiring Saints games is like a dad umpiring his kids. Never pays the fifty fifty calls our way for fear of being accused of being biased.

That or he didn’t like what was written in his card when he left the club.

[Jacks Back]

11.3 in the second half would be handy

[Wayne42]

Yes, he is terrible, he talks out of his arse.

I agree and I actually think he's a really competent umpire but I wish he wouldn't be assigned to Saints games.

Umpires are humans like everyone else and it's unlikely to have no impact on his umpiring given that he was a Saint.

[Jacks Back]

Umpires have been a disgrace
