Sounds like the media's getting what they wanted...attacking footy and a Saints loss. Early days, and we normally play a more attacking game against Carlton, but I hope this isn't a reaction to our bagging in the press.

Its just about over based on our last 2 games.

bigred · Post: # 920182Post **bigred** » Mon 10 May 2010 8:41pm

Couple of missed chances by us this quarter.

Milne, then Hayes miss gettable shots...

9pts to 33

You reckon RL is that dumb. Maybe some sides realise to beat us you are better attacking and I certainly agree with that.

Carlton are playing like an excited enthusastic bunch of kids sliding in the mud.

We'll wear them down.

Go sainters.

bigred · Post: # 920186Post **bigred** » Mon 10 May 2010 8:43pm

not the way we are working at the moment.

Far too many turnovers and the scum are getting far too many cheap disposals.

Clarke is having a howler.

No, we always plan a shoot out with Carlton, but with a stronger Blues backline, vastly different forwardlines on both sides, maybe the safest course might have been a first quarter lock down? Or maybe we don't have any say in the matter?

OUr disposal is terrible. Absolutely terrible.

Worst quarter score wise since 2007

jackyboy · Post: # 920189Post **jackyboy** » Mon 10 May 2010 8:45pm

all over

bigred · Post: # 920190Post **bigred** » Mon 10 May 2010 8:46pm

Back line coughing up the ball like we have not seen in years.

We need the siren asap.

Gotta reset.

i am beginning to fear that the season is slipping away...last 3 weeks we have not played like we should..tonight could be our first pasting since 2008...

hmmmmmm

creating our own turnovers in the backline ... feeling pressured

plugger66 · Post: # 920194Post **plugger66** » Mon 10 May 2010 8:47pm

I now agree with Rogerfox. We are in a slump.

ralphsmith · Post: # 920196Post **ralphsmith** » Mon 10 May 2010 8:47pm

We are evidently in a slump yes.

But the team needs to pull the finger out and fire the hell up, right now.

ralphsmith · Post: # 920197Post **ralphsmith** » Mon 10 May 2010 8:48pm

WE GOT A FREE KICK.

Schneiderman goals.

Pick it up now sainters.

PakenhamSaint · Mon 10 May 2010 8:48pm

We get a well needed goal!

SaintSimmo · Post: # 920199Post **SaintSimmo** » Mon 10 May 2010 8:48pm

plugger66 · Post: # 920201Post **plugger66** » Mon 10 May 2010 8:49pm

Those bloody umpires

bigred · Post: # 920202Post **bigred** » Mon 10 May 2010 8:49pm

Goal schnads..

Us 15
Them 37

Will be ok after a reset.

Have missed some chances and have had some really uncharacteristic turnovers.

We are better than this.

Rickabee · Post: # 920203Post **Rickabee** » Mon 10 May 2010 8:50pm

Schneider got a free kick and got a goal from it???

Did the umpire KNOW they awarded it to Schneider???

ralphsmith · Post: # 920204Post **ralphsmith** » Mon 10 May 2010 8:50pm

Shifting back to us. The giant is waking up.

jmac101 · Post: # 920205Post **jmac101** » Mon 10 May 2010 8:51pm

we are st. kilda supporters...isn't panicking at the first sign of either success/ failure part of the job description?
