Billings has been so disappointing which he so often is against top teams. Flat track bully

Keep recruiting second rate backmen and talking them up.
A dead set spud in Mihocek looking like a cross between Coleman and Hudson.
Looks like the players fell for the same thing as the fans based on one game.

Why is Max King in the ruck against Grundy when we have two dedicated ruckmen playing today?

No reward for our tackling Collingwood just coil up in a ball umpire ball up.

Here’s a tip umpire if Grundy uses his arms and pushes it’s a free.

The contracts of Hannebery and Ross must include No Tackling clauses.

Let's face it Curly we've been outclassed. There's no amount of umpiring pro or negative that can save the type of performance we just put in.

I had such high hopes going into this game, saints, but you've let me down yet again. I should have known better. What a s*** effort from most players.

1/2 time

Pathetic effort really. 38 points behind in a half. 5 unanswered goals and counting.

The amount of space every Coll player has, getting creamed in the ruck when we have two rucks, some of the mistakes and lack of spoiling in he backline. Midfield has been disgusting and haven't turned up.

Let's see if they can turn it around.

Worst part is he looked the liveliest of our mids in that quarter. What does that say about the rest of them?

He’s not clean enough with the ball. Just blazes. Apart from Butler the whole team looks poor.

We are just being out pressured and our smartarse delivery has come undone Battle needs to come in but we have a half to redeem ourselves as for Gresham not being up to it I think he’s had a real crack !

Got to 8 points umpire pays a bemusing free to Collingwood before the balls bounced Goal to Pies. We get another goal umpire free out of the middle.

Even before the DeGoey goal Jones was decapitated.
