Match Thread: Saints vs Roos

[meher baba]

We've started badly. We don't have enough midfielders IMO.

[perfectionist]

We're tankin' !

[bobmurray]

North is making our midfield look shite.

[TheGreatZacsby]

What is going on?

Hayes and Battle been great.

[therabbitinthehat]

what the f**k is wrong with our backline?

[TheGreatZacsby]

If I see one more fumble from Phillipou I’ll join the bandwagon and he’s the new whipping boy. Ffs

[The Fireman]

This could be a percentage boost for North

[TheGreatZacsby]

Jack Hayes!!!! Finally someone who leads in the forward line!

[bobmurray]

Nice goal Hayes.

[desertsaint]

Hayes! Well done!

[meher baba]

We are clearly the better team, but we need to calm down and focus.

[The Fireman]

We just got a bulls*** free-kick curly

[TheGreatZacsby]

Love how North think they are tough c***s for checking Hastie on his kick. Kids 18. Good to see Webster get stuck into them.

Not a hell of a lot better

[Mr Magic]

We just got a bulls*** free-kick curly

And in a nutshell that shows the incompetence of the umpires

[The_Dud]

In an arm wrestle with North…

Lol

[1971]

Sorry who is our sub?

[Vortex]

How good is to have a strong bodied forwards that leads, crashes packs, tackles.....AND....kicks goals...AND can ruck.

[Vortex]

Sorry who is our sub?

One of the fringe players

[The Fireman]

Our midfield looks so inept. Owens tries to bullock through but doesn’t have the finesse to dispose properly

[axcellence]

Xerri did so well against Marshall in the pre season.

Now being repeated.

I get a laugh out of most the match day comments - so pessimistic and reactionary.

Their defence is giving our players a massive amount of room to run around in. And their forward thrusts have a fair amount of hit and hope about them: two out of their three goals had a fair amount of luck in them. They're pretty crap. We're much better, but so far we haven't playing as well as we can.

Why …someone tell me why Max King can’t lead up at the ball carrier???
Why stand around, wrestle, for miracles??
FMD if you jump you’re about 8ft ….so stand and wrestle???
Rob Harvey WTF are you teaching re forward craft …oh wait..
1-5 down centre clearance…wow we are way off it
3 years away.. IF everything goes right
