Very poor first half, very good second half, the season is still alive!

And there you were bagging all our players

Yep, I’m happy to say they’re playing sh*t when they’re playing sh*t.

I also said at half time we could still win the game if we pulled our finger out, which we did.

So all you do is sprout the bleeding obvious ?

Well it’s apparently not too obvious to some…

And I’m comfortable to do that rather than bury my head in the sand.

Each to their own tho.

[Scollop]

10 shots from 30 entries for us now

Geelong 17 shots from 35 inside 50’s. That’s 49% for them

We were way under the AFL averages for conversion in the first half

At half time they restricted our efficiency going inside 50 and we looked like we had no composure at times

Massive second half and close to our best footy for the year in 3rd. By full time we were above the AFL average

25 shots from 52 entries (48%). Geelong finished with 25 shots from 51 inside 50’s (49%)

[saynta]

Only have a few words to say.

1. f*** yeah.

2. Suck s*** Geelong, you bunch of thugs and cheats.

3.If umpires don't want people to put s*** on them will have to do better than that pathetic display.

4. Gawd I detest that inbred prick who plays at fullforward for the cats. f****** cheat.

[The_Dud]

For all those who have bagged JB using the "soft" or "hears footsteps" as your bullsh1te excuse for not liking him, just put his mark in the last quarter on loop. He made a big difference today against a seasoned opposition.

Has never been soft, I’ve seen him do that countless times.

A fit and firing Billings will be a great asset to the team

[happy feet]

Ratts is a good coach!

I will second that!

I have to admit I wasn’t that fussed about him not being in the side but he certainly turned me around tonight. We have depth

Owen the saints

I've got fewer "Go Sainters" best wi n of the year

Billings was great in the second half. He just knows where to run. Windhager was very good, having 14 touches in the second half. One his confidence grows he'll be a very good player. Between him and NWM, we have come up trumps n the 2021 draft. Owens will be a player, too.

Jones thankfully got his touch back as the game progressed and the importance of playing Sharman showed today. He keeps the opposition intercept defender occupied. We must play three marking forwards

[The Fireman]

Love seeing the hug between long and Hill after singing the song. I just knew it long is going to be a ripper for us despite the incredible amount of negativity on here. Show some faith guys

Agree with all. Sharman is Robert Redford, he's a natural forward just runs & presents in all the spots defenders don't want him in or at.

[WellardSaint]

Letting Zac Touhy break a tackle like Dustin Martin?
Gotta be better.

We kicked 7 goals in the 3rd qtr, brilliance+hard work.
Almost handed the game back to the Pussies with far too many unforced errors and poor choices.

Need to focus a lot more.
DMack brain fade to pick out Hawkins.
He's a decent, hard-worker but FFS Dan...

They look at the stats at the end of the day and forget about the 1% ers. Long uses his speed to close down space and he gets a tackle just in time or a spoil just in time to stop opposition players retaining possession.

Same with Sincs and same with Marcus Windhager…how the hell did this kid get past the first round of the draft?

[desertsaint]

great game. why i love footy. very happy with my saints.

He did something to redeem himself when he attacked the footy and put his head over it. DMac won the free kick and we settled with just minutes to go when they were coming at us hard.

Gee I really find it hard to say anything negative about the bloke

Excellent player. Would have him in my best side

[Brunswicksainter]

Let’s go back through the thread and look at the posters who bagged the s*** out of our players and wanted to see some of our champions dropped.

As I said gee we have some s*** supporters on here

Happy to stand by comments regarding ryder. Absolutely insipid performance in the first half and taking him out of the ruck in the third is what got us back into the game.

Glad you don’t coach us mate

He has more tap outs to advantage to geelong players than the two geelong rucks put together

Let’s drop him

His work up forward has been great. But you cannot objectively say his ruck perfromance against Blicavs/stanley (the worst ruck duo in the comp) has not been up to scratch.

Okay so if you were coach you would play him where. He is one of the best Ruckman we have had in a long long time i’ll say it again mate I’m glad you don’t coach us

I don’t understand your comments? Taking paddy out of the ruck is arguably what won us the game. Are you suggesting we shouldn’t have done that and hence lost the game or?
