Matchday Thread -Saints V Brisbane

[Devilhead]

An dire embarrassing half of footy

[CURLY]

Where are the morons that think trading King is a good idea??

@The Dud

[shrodes]

Very lazy work all over the ground
Brisbane running end to end and we aren’t keeping up

[samoht]

King wouldn't have seen it.

[TheGreatZacsby]

The only positive is Phillipou is having a good game.

Half Time Score,
Saints 1-4-10 v Brisbane 9-3-57

Saints kicked 1 point in the 2nd quarter,
Lions kicked 5 goals 3 in the 2nd.

Could be a belting if they keep this up.

[Devilhead]

Sideways sideways sideways fkng sideways

No run zilch

[shrodes]

1 centre clearance for the quarter, midfield again a big issue

0 for Q2
Getting belted in the middle

[The Fireman]

We’re a joke!

.?? How does getting beaten by an excellent side make us a joke ?
Childish comment

Can’t hold a mark, can’t stick a tackle, can’t hit a target, refuse to run.

Those things have little to do with Brisbane!

That’s what pressure will do

It's the way we are being beaten.

[SaintWiki]

I’m beginning to think we won’t make finals…

We were never going to make finals? You can’t be for real?

Must be satire

A good way ?

[BadRossco]

Don’t really want to be winning games at this time of the season but it would be nice to at least be competitive. Lions are taller, faster and stronger not to mention the big gap in skill level so can’t see anything changing in the second half and imagine even the Tigers are looking forward to playing us next week

Dougall poor again, if you’re going 2 man up you have to kill the contest

He has to man up first. He shirks the physical contest and runs like he’s wearing flippers in treacle.

[SaintWiki]

Myself and apparently some others have been kidding ourselves believing we have advanced so quickly, and I wonder what RTB was thinking giving Brad Hill a tagging Role. Hopefully we can have a few better quarters now as we don't need to win, and we had our Grand Final last week.

Those things have little to do with Brisbane!

That’s what pressure will do

Many of those things are happening under little pressure!

And either way, they’re been paid to deal with a little pressure.

[chook23]

Playing like they drank their own bathwater during the week

Give him a break, he's has been living in hell for two quarters.

They seem to me to be trying their guts out but are simply being beaten by a superior side so to call them a joke I find a bit ordinary

[skeptic]

Hi everyone… apologies as I’m not watching the match and haven’t been near my phone to now.

I’ve previously PM’d the relevant people RE the umpire comments on the match thread. My opinion is that everyone has responded very positively to now

Obviously there is a lot of commentary from Curly on the umps today.

I think we’ve had enough on the topic for now. Chances are it’s going to be a miserable 2nd half from what i see so we don’t need any extra frustration so I’ll remove anything that unnecessarily contributes

[bobmurray]

Bonner out
Dow in

[cwrcyn]

Brisbane are equally the best team in the competition. Their midfield is vastly superior to ours. We needed to break even in the middle to have a chance, but McInerney's dominance over Marshall has killed us
