Match Thread Saints v Blues Round 6 2023

[meher baba]

Even Howard played well.

He was excellent!

[SaintPav]

just too good for them. team is looking good.

Great effort, though I think we really should have won by more in the end. Cut out the silly mistakes and lookout!

I think we would have won by more had King or even Caminiti played.

We missed Caminiti.

YEAHHHHHHH!!!!!

[Otiman]

Players under pressure coming into the game:
Butler, tick.
Gresham, tick.
Cordy, half a tick.

[Scollop]

Congratulations to the boys

RTB fanboy

I'm interested in joining the fanboy club

Yep. You got me

Do I just have to believe everything he says (you know...just like when you join a cult) or is there some sort of initiation ceremony?

[B.M]

He’s a good coach

At my age I’m not a fanboy of anyone

We are going well

Perspective - we were 5-1 last season

Long way to go - but a great start to the season

Billings in for Byrnes is simple.

I like Byrnes' desperation and run. Will be surprised if Lyon drops him.

[grime]

Any body got the free kick tally?

[saintkid]

Burns played well

He did. Watch him carefully on the ground. He may end up being a Lyon favourite.

[Winmore]

Even Howard played well.

He was excellent!

He was excellent once we got on top, the first half he was very ordinary IMO. I don’t like the way he spits the dummy at his teammates when he stuffs up. It’s pretty transparent.

[Scollop]

Ronnie was very good- has to be in the votes. Loose ground ball wins by Byrnes in the last quarter were amazing.

Ben Paton important. He was brave a few times with intercept s in front of McKay and C Curnow.

Battle actually fought on well as did the guys in the backline

Owens, Membrey and Marshall inspirational

Clark Butler and Wood kept us in it in the first half

Sebby, Hill, and Sincs just unbelievable work rate from these guys. Great leadership

And just on leadership...Steele actually provided good run in that last half of the game and curbed the influence of Patty Cripps

Nah, what was the final free kick count?

[Trev from the Bush]

Even Howard played well.

Wilkie was much quieter today and people's attention switched to Dougal. He was very good, excellent second half.

[saynta]

Cripps and Acres were Carltons best players

Curly! Either do your homework or go stand in the corner. You are obviously fixated on the umpires because you are not watching the efforts of players that fly under the radar, like Byrnes.

He ran 15 kilometres during the game, the second highest distance of any player on the ground (Wood ran 15.5!) And collected 20 possessions. Most of his hard running was in defence, one of the reasons the dirty, rotten Blues could only kick 8 goals.

100% spot on Scollop.

[B.M]

Brownlow votes will be interesting from this game

Carlton had all the ball winners

But StK weee the better team

My guess
Sinclair 3
Cripps 2
Walsh 1

In RTB we trust Say that over and over like a mantra

And yes, believe everything he says, except don’t drink the Kool-Aid

And at my age I’m a fanboy

[SaintPav]

Means we are well coached and have a great system.
