Sums up our season really. We appear, at times, very close to being a good team but the gulf between us and the actual best in the comp is large.

f*** OFF UMPIRING SCUM!!!!

[Stephen Theodore]

Don't deserve to play finals

Sad but true

No, cooked

We didn't didn't lose this game because of the umpires.. they didn't stop us kicking a goal for 2 quarters... they didn't kick 6.14

When your forwards get held and blocked and thrown off the ball with no frees it’s hard. We tackled that hard in our forward half not one free.

The free to Oscar Allen was a insult to all StKilda fans

f*** you umpires

[st.byron]

The moment when I realise that in spite of the bright start to the year, we just do not have the quality players required. Kent, Lonie, Ross - meh.

f*** OFF UMPIRING SCUM!!!!

Its called cheat!!! - we need to make an official question to afl & leak it to the media!

[Wayne42]

St Kilda only know one thing, crap football, they've spent at least 53 years mastering it.

[Kate]

Just plain cheating. Unbelievable!
It doesn't matter if it cost us the game or not. Professional sport need professional umpires.

[Devilhead]

4pts in 2 quarters cost us and then the umps got involved

[Saintmatt]

Panic possesion football. Get ball, kick ball as long as possible in hope. No structure around stoppages. We're letting their players waltz around. Pressure is ok and effort is there but just DUMB football. Ratts needs to sort it out. Our team balance is awful. Kent and Hind might as well not be playing. If they can't go into the midfield, then they shouldn't play.

Not surprising when your pathetic No 6 is the chief of his shite modus operandi.

I seriously despise the way he plays ... Selfish, panicked rubbish. The last Kelly goal was all his ball watching rubbish as Kelly scooted last. we’re playing 1 short with him in the team. I couldn’t care less whether he kicks one ar$ey goal every month. His job to is to get it and do something constructive with it or stop an opp getting it. He does neither.

Please. Retire. Now.

[SaintPav]

We’re clearly not good enough but better than last season.

[Jacks Back]

full time
Saints 6.14.50 LOL v 9.11.65

Bad coaching. Ryder getting towelled up in the last qtr but stayed in the ruck the whole time. Marshall should have goner in there halfway through when west coast came back

[Devilhead]

Players that can't kick on both should not be playing ..... plenty of our players can't

[samuraisaint]

No leadership. Once again when the game is on the line we went 'round the boundary and kicked the ball out of bounds instead of going down the center. How many times do we have to see this? I saw Ratten's face when this happened and he was shattered.

No composure when it counts. Our big name recruit missed a shot from right in front which could have given us breathing space, but, oh..no..

Kelly and Ryan killed us all night.

We should have played Carlisle. Imagine playing a team like that without our CHB.

*shakes head*

[bigred]

6 goals 15 behinds

Do it for Danny?

Two quarter effort is just offensive.

Unacceptable.

Kent, Billings, Lonie, Hind, Geary all should not play next week.

f*** it. Play the blokes that have not had a look.

[Enrico_Misso]

Show some guts StKilda and lodge an official complaint.

That last limp wristed gift decision goal summed up the umpiring tonight - f****** BIASED

You normally dribble utter Sh1t but on this occasion ... you’re dead right.

I’d have to agree
Not the reason we lost but *ame turning frees tonight
2 deliberate out of bounds not paid all night
I saw balls thrown
I saw one ball over the boundary and play on
Then free in forward half???
But let’s face facts 6.14 with many of them goals kickable
King Hill in the last extremely gettable goals
Goes down other end and Kennedy doesn’t miss
We lack class and are cooked I’m sorry
Not making finals I have this year as a fail I set that as a benchmark after our good start and we fluffed
And being st Kilda we will look back and go gee......so many games so close.....but losers constantly say that

[saintkid]

Kent and Lonie are substandard. Kent can't take a contested mark, has no value when the ball hits the ground and is hopeless below his knees. How on earth does he get picked?

Lonie gets thrown off the ball like a rag doll and for a small forward his average skills are vfl standard at best.

How do you expect to win games picking these two spuds in your forward line?

[bangaulegend]

We’re clearly not good enough but better than last season.

Yep

[CarlD]

Poor kicking for goal a significant factor yet again.

[SaintPav]

The whole game was the west coast and Adam Simpson show. f*** you 7.

[Teflon]

We’re clearly not good enough but better than last season.

I’m not so sure tbh I think we’ve had a good draw and run but there are clearly sides below us that are better
We are pretenders
