Gresham and Acres disposal is 50/50 at best atm.

Gee wiz our disposal going inside is just sublime..... o.O

Gresham, Acres.... Two entries butchered in 30 seconds.

Pressure good. Should win this with a four quarter effort. Need to tighten this rubbish up.

Membrey is a player. For sure. Sign him up for three more now. 50+ goal forward.

At least they know how to find it. This is what we need. A deep midfield. Give them another 30 games and they will get better

Mids are dominating. 50% of it is Steven and Arma though.

I'm really starting to be of the opinion that we really need to put the acid on some of the young blokes.

Weitering taken off The skunk now. Gilbo, worst turnover in the history of the game. Serious.

This is the entertainment industry and Gilbo certainly does provide the commentators and the opposition with a good laugh

We are dominating but keeping them in it with some dodgy disposals.

If we win without Roo, Fisher & Dempster it will be a milestone game for the club. Matthew Lloyd was right. This is a huge opportunity.

Probably the worst umpire reasoning I've ever heard.
Calls juggle over the line and because the field umpire said it would be a mark he called it out on full. That makes 0 sense, he either touched it before the line or he didn't, don't make it up as you go.

Big crowd here. We might actually make some $$$ this week. Bloody fantastic with the roof open. Can't buy a free but that's ok, because we're mostly
Out positioning the Blues. The virtual roof lifted off when Lewie kicked his first goal. Go saints!!

Dunstan is slow.


I don't think it would matter if we had the best forwards in the comp atm...the delivery inside our 50 is abysmal.

Finally proof they have absolutely no idea. Should never be allowed to boundry umpire in the AFL again. It's almost like he was thinking. "How do I just make sure St Kilda don't get this ball"

Extraordinary effort by the boys. They looked done at the end of that half. So tough when 8 or 10, if they get the ball in space cannot find a team mate by foot.
If only either of Ross or Duncan could kick.
