Match thread Saints v Dogs

[The_Dud]

I think the simplest way to put it is we’re a club that’s all too happy to accept mediocrity and afraid to demand excellence.

[bobmurray]

Wish we had a marking tall forward, Naughton is having a night out.

[Bruce G McAbee]

Typical.

That's a cop out. Who is doing this? Which people, and what have they said or done to suggest it?

Also, you're very optimistic saying this is mediocre.

Ironically Bevo's job was on the line coming into this game

Wish we had an actual forward.

[bobmurray]

Jones only had 7 possessions, in case he is wondering why he was subbed off.

Would you shut up that’s just a ridiculous bit of bulls***

Only from the media.

Zak Jones

Is that the best scapegoat you’ve got?!

[The Fireman]

Maybe bevo has a magic wand

[B.M]

What the hell was Sharman doing there

Watching Jones touch it

He is fkn hopeless

For the last 10 damn years we've been crying out for midfield development and every year it's still our achilles heel.
What do you expect from a stupidly run club that goes out to recruit a cooked Hannebery on a huge 5 year contract, instead of identifying and bringing on new talent. What successful sporting enterprise handsomely funds the retirement package of a player who year in year out offered nothing on-field?
There's a reason why St Kilda is the the target of regular 'rabble' jokes by opposition supporters and over the years often labelled the laughing stock of the competition.
At least Treloar has given good service to the Dogs and playing well again tonight.
I didn't think I would witness a more embarrassing loss than that against Essendon so soon but I have tonight.
We are truly a 'rabble' and I've hated hearing that but it's a deserving description for this amateurish club.

Had an absolute shocker last week...looked disinterested.

As I said after the team was announced...how frustrating for the coaches not to have any options at the selection table

We put our stars up on a pedestal (whether they deserve it or not) and refuse to look at them objectively, players run around week after week knowing they’re untouchable, refusing to make hard calls for fear of media and fan (who are also conditioned to accept mediocrity) backlash, low training standards and everyone’s happy to have a laugh…

And so on and so forth

Sharman is the true definition of a spud.

Curly, the poster boy for mediocrity

Who's "we"? Name names.

[Bruce G McAbee]

Just as well Ugle Hagen and Liberatore aren't playing.

[CURLY]

Treloar is tackled arms wrapped actually spikes the ball out play on gial

[The Fireman]

Do the saints have to come out for the last qrt?

[B.M]

Your fanboy Ross will fire them up - surely

[bobmurray]

Bulldogs lead by 77 points with 3 mins left in the 3rd.

Might be a 100 point slaughter by the end of the non contest.

[CURLY]

Richards tackled three times play on

[The Fireman]

Your fanboy Ross will fire them up - surely

Let’s hope
