Back to the highlights...Mason Wood is having a cracking game!

Hunter has been looked good, Henry is slowly improving, hope he gets back to full potential

For a 14 point win against last years wooden spooners and one of three clubs below us on the ladder?

Some reasonable match day changes in the middle of the game but the games are won and lost with coaching well before the first bounce.

He's off alright...oh you mean his knee.

Such potential but all we can do is make excuses for his performances....

Injured
Might be injured
Was injured
Thought about getting injured
Still recovering from being injured
Double teamed
Poor incoming ball delivery
Coach is forcing him to play heartless, passionless, behind defenders, never lead, dont jump, dont mark, dont defend, dont tackle, dont chase, no fire to win, no energy...

On and on.

He can play, damn amazingly.
But alas, 5 years in and I'd say hope is waning.
Injured trying to mop u rubbish delivery.
I know! Gone are the days where a full forward would visciously rip ya tits off to get the Sherrin after leading 278 metres running through barbed wire...now we have to hit him on the chest with a bubble wrapped ball. Wish the spirit of Hall & G Train could enter King.

If anyone thinks that was even a decent coaching performance

Has no idea about footy

The poor match ups in the first half

The system

The slowness of the moves

Embarrassing

I don’t think that was a good performance

Beating a bottom 3 team by 2 goals

You may like it, easily pleased Saints supporter

Me - I thought it was a shitfull effort - especially from the box

The moves were good, but they took too way long to be made and should have been part of the plan at the first bounce. It’s not like we didn’t know Reid was a gun, Sinclair is better at half back and windy is not a forward. Game would have been over at half time against a better team. Anyway, happy we got a win but does not fill me with any sort of confidence.

At least we demonstrated we made an effort but giving credit to the coach when the moves he made should have been in place from the start. It's as if he had never heard of Harley Reid before, and even after the players were told to lower their eyes going into goal it's so very obvious the long bomb is still automatic - what the hell to they train for during the week. Nevertheless it was a good win and thanks to the players for their effort this week.
