Saints are converting their shots on goal.
Plus, because we are playing in front with purpose, we are getting our share of the free kicks. Amazing what happens when you play in front.

One simple thing. Darcy went off with an ankle roll. Marshall took over and gave out mids a chance from stoppages. And goalkicking better.

King still needs be entry as a few of our goals were long shots. ie from a fair way out.

Slight tangent but how often am i seeing #47 in there. Loving it

We went from one of our worst quarters to one of our best.
Need the first 2 goals of the last to completely break Freo.

Yeah it’s amazing how much better teams look when they’re converting, hopefully one day the coaches realise how important this is!

Thought I’ve just managed to turn it on and see Max and Higgins miss 😭

Heaps better qtr. But….in the last few minutes three very gettable chances missed. Max, Gresh and Higgins. Great to be 18 in front. Should be 30 plus.

I’d prefer to see Higgins run of the line and kick or even check side

Ripping quarter. Why does it take a half of footy to get it together? Something to work on. But magnificent effort, and absolutely thrilled for Jack and Max. Confidence oozing out of every pore.

Left a goal out there at the end

Attack the last quarter with the same intensity we should win

And how much better when there are centre clearances putting the oppo defence seriously under the pump.

Hats off to players lowering their eyes going forward
King leading back up at the man and Higgins showing his smarts
Mids also - great around the ball on top in the contest
I won’t say it’s beautiful but we’ll take it

Hey Gerald Healy, why would we play King up the ground like Jackson when he can play full forward like Max King

Darcy subbed out. Hope it's not serious as I don't wish a serious injury on anyone.

We have to keep going. We need to kick four goals to make certain of it.
