Be nice to start this game well and take the sting out of them early like 5-7 goal 1st quarter

Yes, would be nice to have a big lead going into halftime for once!

Re: Match Thread Saints v Kangaroos Round 11 2022
I expect our defence to be strong as usual.
The centre of our midfield should be a little better through the addition of Owens.
My concerns with the forward line remain the same as last week: plenty of tall to medium forwards, but with responsibilty for all of the crumbing and tackling work being left to midfielders going forward, particularly Long, Gresham and perhaps Owens.
In my view, Long, NWM and Sharman are all rather lucky to be playing today. So I'm hoping they'll rise to the occasion and deliver great performances.

Not sure why we're wearing our away jumper and white shorts for a home game

Re: Match Thread Saints v Kangaroos Round 11 2022
WTF is going on with our clearance work? North players seem to have numbers and support around the backside of the contests. North win the ball and walk away far too easily...
Their mids are making us look very ordinary, Zak Jones needs to lift and put some preasure on when we dont have the ball.

Re: Match Thread Saints v Kangaroos Round 11 2022
As with last month dominated at clearance in the early stages. We cant stick our heads in the sand as much as we want but its very evident this Ryder/midfield partnership is not working and hasn't for some time.
Unsure whether that's Ryders fault or just poor reading of play by the midfielders.

Seems like they’ve found their gear now
Just about everyone is doing what they should
Looks to me like we’ll run away with it now

Re: Match Thread Saints v Kangaroos Round 11 2022
Doing well with the non decisions ATM. The rule is to throw the ball to the player taking the kick not to your teammate on the mark.
