BS football from us.

sainterinsydney · Sat 10 Jul 2010 9:19pm

Wasn't smart bringing Gram and Riewoldt in for the same game. We have been shocking tonight. It's like we are in slow motion.

we've got like 3 ruckman, 2 guys that havent got much fitness(riewoldt and gram) no wonder we're not scoring.

I still have faith, but gee the quarter was terrible.

jonesy · Post: # 954733Post **jonesy** » Sat 10 Jul 2010 9:22pm

I'll nominate that half as the worst the Stkilda football club has looked for at least 2-3 years,and possibly the worst lack of effort they've dished up under Lyon.

A sick Goddard would show more energy than this group tonight.

That half has the potential at wasting all the great work we've done the past 6 weeks.

Sh!thouse!

We are playing without any direction aimless kicks into the forward line, they are clearing it far too easy. We need a huge lift or this is a loss coming.

We look second rate tonite slow. flat and lacklustre.

OneEyedSainter77 · Sat 10 Jul 2010 9:24pm

Abysmal quarter.

Nothigtn more to say.

Need to come out firing or we are going to lose this one.

Still only seventeen points down but that was a dismal effort.

We are absolutely completely lost when we go forward - we just don't know who to kick to and our forwards are not getting into postion. brisbane defence has slaughtered us so far tonight.

Bringing Roo and Gram in has hurt us because we're effectively playnig with 20 fit men when you talk of match fitness.

PLus Gilbert will have a week at least on the sidelines for his stupid spear tackle earlier.

Umpiring has been inconsistent which is frustrating as always but to be honest, we are putting in a pathetic performance.

2-13 at this miserable venue. Say what you want, but we choose to play our worst football at the Gabba and Football Park.

I dunno, the last three quarters against Port earlier in the year were pretty bad.

In have faith too but f*** me, we've made it hard for ourselves!

iwantmeseats · Sat 10 Jul 2010 9:25pm

losses happen. The f***ed thing is its going to happen against a bunch of spuds who have lost the last 9/10! Makes you look back at freo Geelong wins...it takes alot of shine of those really hard fought wins! I couldnt be more pissed.

dcstkfc · Post: # 954740Post **dcstkfc** » Sat 10 Jul 2010 9:26pm

Terrible quarter THE SECOND QUARTER CURSE STRIKES AGAIN

Can't play any worse though, need a lift from Joey, Dal and Lenny- should still be enough to get us over the line

Ray our best to this point

Whats the opposite of pleasing?
And what's the opposite of banking another 4 points?
Hope we can stand up and take control soon.

dude, im declaring it, they are NOWHERE near interested enough in this one. Its shot.

saint66au · Post: # 954746Post **saint66au** » Sat 10 Jul 2010 9:29pm

Its pretty simple

We dont have a forward line..we rely on stopping other sides scoring and when that doesnt happen we seem incapable of putting any scoreboard pressure on. We are the lowest scoring team in the top 4 by a long long way and tonight is a great example why.

When was the last time we took a contested mark inside 50? Weeks and weeks Id suggest. We went inisde 50 13 times that quarter and couldnt score a goal. Took one mark inside 50, and that was Roo on the boundary line

I said last week we are the reverse flat track bullies. Play great footy against the top sides but cant string 4 quarters togther agasint lesser opposition

Cant blame umpires or BJ/Kosi/whoever being out. We need to find our offensive game and we need to find it quick IMO

Sainternist · Sat 10 Jul 2010 9:29pm

Okay, I have faith they can put that rubbish football behind them and show a lot more heart in this second half.

COME ON YOU SAINTS!

Sam23 · Post: # 954748Post **Sam23** » Sat 10 Jul 2010 9:29pm

Jeez this is the worst we've played since Dogs/Port/Carlton we are nowhere!

Assumed when I saw the ins for this game, that RL was prepared to sacrifice the game for match fitness and structure readjustment...this looks like the case. Although, there's not a lot of effort out there. Mind you, a couple gimme goals to the Lions removed and we'd only be a kick out of it.

They don't seem to know the golden rule of televising footy.

When in doubt, show the bloke with the ball.

"Reverse flat track bullies"

I like that...so true!

Our lack of attack keeps every side in the comp in the game against us.

clarky449 · Post: # 954753Post **clarky449** » Sat 10 Jul 2010 9:32pm

We will win
