Poor disposal, poor set shot goal kicking, didn't get one today.
Max needs to toughen up.
Membrey just went missing.


Think of me long enough to make a memory.

Can we now drop the f****** deadwood and out of form players such as Kent, Butler, etc?

Great umpiring and terribly biased. Port defenders allowed to basically maim our forwards and it’s play on. Ball on the deck just throw our players to the ground give Port players clear path. The throw they missed how?

Exactly desertsaint. Too much left to too few again today.

What was the point of the last two weeks and put that performance in at home? :roll:

How the umpire missed that high on Crouch by Charlie Dixon is beyond me. It resulted in a goal.

We had our opportunities and threw it away.

Poor.

Pretenders - game in the balance have all the momentum and they decide to play short kick cute football
As Roo said sometimes you have to just take the game on had we taken the longer options the game was opening up for us
Anyway what we have learnt AGAIN guys who can’t kick a ball under pressure hurt you when it matters
Kent - should be finished
Ross - nothing kick late in qtr to hand Port the ball back
Dunstan- yep good grubber player can’t kick when it matters
And Brad Hill ....clearly a dumb player looking for dinky short kicks
Ah well we are joking if we think we are a finals side had Port had their full side in that game was a 10 goal loss

We are St.Kilda relying on too few to get the job done .
The game was there for the taking dont blame umpires we are not tough enough mentally those who think we are a good team your kidding youselves.
WE ARE AN AVERAGE TEAM

Would have sworn Crouch got taken high in the build up?

Sinclair saved us with those kicks half a dozen times today, the one time it doesn't come off and he gets bagged?

Poor.
Was that where Dixon actually apologized for just elbowing him in the face? Even he knew he'd clocked the guy.

Don't compare a young bloke who has played a dozen games with a player on big money that is in the leadership group

Out come the predictable comments… reality is game was lost with set shots. You can’t not kick any goals from set shots and expect to win.

Lol @ people blaming the umpires. Absolutely NFI.

Yep. I am just so conflicted as to which umpire to give me top vote to. Who gets your strong recommendation?

Tim Membrey ought to hand his psycheck back
Anyone suggesting we don’t need Bing down there is delusional
Membrey was a liability can only hold the mark in perfect delivery
What the **** was that kick by Butler in last when we had a totally open forward line????? Why didn’t King and come lead up give him an option??
Gutless
