They keep mentioning how poor our work rate is ! Also our skills have been terrible with our kicking efficiency well below Collingwood...Seems like we are struggling with our option taking going forward and getting out head around the new game plan.

Pathetic, if Collingwood could kick straight the score could be 50 - 2. They are missing some easy goals by the sounds of it.
inside 50s are about 50 to 10 or something.
we are getting violated!

Not much to like about the first quarter. We are a complete mess going inside 50 and skills for both teams are horrible. Kosi is looking like our only tall capable of taking a mark and BJ is getting into the game. Don't like how often we're relying on Gilbert's kicking coming out of defence. And i haven't seen us go inside 50 from the corridor once

Just no more injuries!

Don't care about the result.

What a crappy preseason.

Floods, heat, now rain.

Can't say it's been a soft run. ;)

They are hamming it up, trying to con people into thinking the game has some relevance.

Thankfully it seems Lenny should be ok, just a knock to the head. Off to hospital for a scan to be sure, to be sure.

terrible game, at least we are getting a little more run. Hard to tell as sen only seem to commentate every 3 kicks by the saints. I know the pies are on top but seriously it sounds like we are the 80's saints right now.

Saints 16 Pies 40 at 1/2 time.

Saints still sound like they are second to the ball and chasing opponents.
