Match Thread Saints v Crows Round 10 2022

[freely]

I'm listening from o/s - do I take it we're playing brilliant footy? If it weren't for the umpires sabotaging us, we'd be 10 goals up?

[Ghost Like]

Umpiring not great. St Kilda players a helluva lot worse.

[desertsaint]

Bring on a saints third quarter clinic!
Please.

[CURLY]

18 to 5 ..... just WOW

Gave us a free when Jones marked it then got clouted.

[Teflon]

Aside from blatant cheating umpires
When will these B grade midfield imposters stand up???
Jones - headless chook
Gresham- headless chook
FFS Ratten DO SOMETHING out of the middle and get Sinclair on the ball ffs
Poor defenders are under siege
No system into forward 50 whatsoever
Disgusting

[Banger9798]

We are playing bad...but when ecery soft decision goes their way it is a rip off.

Will have to have a huge third quarter against Crows and umpires....(watch them give a couple of soft ones to us in junk time of late quarter if the Crows have got it sown up)

[Ghost Like]

We cannot hide behind the umpire's skirts for this effort. I agree with saintkid, too many senior players MIA.

[saintbob]

Only 11pts down and we are playing like absolute s*** and the umps are crucifying us.
Hopefully we can get control of the game in the 2nd half, but we’ll seriously have to reconfigure the forward line the Crows are running out there so easily.

[WellardSaint]

Half-time is when the 15 ppl on laptops do their thing with data.

Coaches use the numbers to rejig the guys.

We will kick 6 goals to 2 in the third.
We better, or else

[B.M]

Rowan Marshall is having a poor game

His missed goal from 25 out directly in front was woeful- they took it straight up the other end and kicked a goal!

Never gave a handball and selfishly tried to do it himself and was caught- cost a goal

Outmarked in in d50 by opponent

Having a mare

[SaintPav]

Almost unwatchable

No system going forward

Not defending

They are not on, if it continues it should be a 5-6 goal loss

Looking that way.

[shanegrambeau]

I s*** …I just tuned in….what the f is going on?

[bergsone]

Is Billings playing

[B.M]

Billings playing forward - ball not going in - and when it is - it’s bombed on Kings head!!!

[Wayne42]

I s***

We all do.

[B.M]

Change it up

Gresham and Wood forward

Billings wing

Change the midfield mix

Sinclair in

[Ghost Like]

I've given Marshall a few weeks grace because of his corkie but the heat is on. He needs a big 2nd half or a new manager because his current output is worth jack in terms of a new, fat contract.

[saintkid]

When you analyze this competition in terms of the way it is officiated, how can you accept this crap?
Seriously, the AFL have made a mess of the way this game is played. They continue to fail miserably with the standard of umpiring that's dished out every round.
Hard to watch a sport where the umpires have so much influence in a game's outcome.

[Bruce G McAbee]

So typical St.Kilda fill their supporters with great hope one week only to crush that hope the following week.

[shanegrambeau]

So fair dinkum…in three lines….tell me what the f has happened.

Guess

Bombing into forward line
Can’t kick out from behinds
Skills, skills

Bad umpires?

[bangaulegend]

Umpiring has been ordinary at best but we have been as ordinary. Ryder is winning every tap but we can't get our hands on the ball . Need to make a stand in the second half because if we don't we won't win . Game is still there for us but their work rate has been better . Need to lift

[Bruce G McAbee]

Adelaide have 8 players, or maybe more with 30 games or less experience put there tonight and they are making look bad.

Slipped and was off balance on a slippery deck - but hey - you report it as you want

[Bruce G McAbee]

Plus, 3 goals to half time, sorry but that's pathetic.

[B.M]

Tap means pretty much FA most of the time

Most overrated stat in footy
