Mach thread: saints v bombers

[SaintPav]

OMG.

[Wayne42]

Anyone would think the Bummers are playing for 4th on the ladder.

[saintkid]

We are the world champions of allowing teams to play back into form.

That's because we play indirect, brainless football most of the time.

[The Fireman]

This is too painful to watch. They have no intensity. Pissed off

[Teflon]

Someone tell me the game plan into fwd 50?????
Dan Butler killing them - small again Brett?????
Where is the system into 50????
Just deplorable
Making a crap side look awesome

[Goose is king]

Ratts better give them the mother of all sprays

[CURLY]

Great quarter and totally predictable

[SaintPav]

This is rubbish.

Good night.

[Teflon]

[Banger9798]

Not watching, but score checking from sunny London.

Better not cough up this game to the druggies

How is Clark and Billings going?

[samoht]

Ross, Battle and King doing okay.
Plenty of passengers.

[The Fireman]

ESS are playing in front and leaving our blokes behind. They have come to play better pull something out of your arse Ratts

[bergsone]

Well thats the s*** quarter out of the way,we always have at least one

Clearly our forward structure is terrible, a number of times steaming forward under little pressure and they refuse to kick in and end up just running into pressure and turning it over.

[Impatient Sainter]

Well thats a bad a first quarter the club have played since we played Essendon last year. No intensity, no intent, playing rubbish football.

They must like to make things hard for themselves because Essendon have got their tails up now.

If we lose this game under no circumstances should Ratten have his contract extended mid year.

There is no plan

No forward strategy what so ever!!

Actually, no sorry. The strategy is look for King and Higgins. The stats tell us that’s who they go to and the first quarter was evidence of that again

We’re down on the scoreboard atm, so how about a new plan

DON’T kick to King unless ha’s leading and don’t kick to Higgins unless he’s leading directly at the ball carrier

[Goose is king]

Spud deserves better than that crap

[bangaulegend]

Early days but that was pathetic . Were is the commitment it's spuds game & we are playing like absolute f-cking spuds . The good thing is we 3 quarters to show what we stand for

[CURLY]

Backs zoning off and getting slaughtered.

Byrnes no good

Running with the ball when we need to give it off.

Crouch on Hind is ridiculous

[1966]

Shocking quarter.
Playing selfish football.
Undisciplined and lack of effort so far.
Butler must be on last chance.

[WellardSaint]

I've said the small fwd plan has failed.
Butler with his patty tricks.
Kicking ball off the ground, little control.

How is Clark and Billings going?

Clark is doing alright. Had a bit of it... a little up and under with disposal but had 5 touches and looks in decent form. Happy with that return.

Billings was harder to see but did a few deft things.

[Teflon]

But quick let’s sign the coach now!!!!
Just stupidity

[WellardSaint]

Ess wom the first 1st qtr since Rd 4.
