Totally Gutted and Shattered

Dal_Santos_Gal · Fri 30 Jul 2010 10:26pm

Can't put into words how gutted and shattered I feel right about now. Not only are we playing pathetic tonight, but you can't help get the feeling that 2010 is getting away from us.
It really is starting to now look highly unlikely that we can snatch a flag that we all so badly want.

I just can't stop shaking my head in disbelief !!!

Where the HELL has that SAINTS FOOTY gone? what the hell has happened to it because it sure is not out on the field tonight.

This is not a thread for bagging or coming up with answers, its just letting everyone know how you feel.

I am just totally Shattered, its a massive let down right about now. I don't think living on hope is going to cut it.

Nice post, exactly how we feel. Many in this team have NO heart when it counts. In the first half the whole of our midfield was left to Lenny AGAIN. If it wasn't for him we would already be 100 points down.

I am sad.

Very very sad. And very shocked.

I know Essendon always play well against us but I wasn't expecting this.

Well, they at least will have a month in which to get their sh*t together before the finals.

you know things are bad when you jump onto fanfooty and all the icons beside the players have turned into crabs.
I am not joking either, I wish I was, this is just embarrassing.

I actually feel sick, this game has gutted me more than any other home and away game over the past decade. It actually is slowly dawning on me that last year was it .... our only chance for the forseeable future. There is a very dark tunnel ahead.

I need to forget about footy for a while there is more to life.

I am really gutted, very upset as I think we are gone and what I have waited for so long is gone to. I know I will get bagged fr that, but thats the way I feel.

They should have learned from the Carlton loss. They are far from a premiership team now.

Too much is left to Lenny in the midfield. Last week the guy played a blinder and kept us in the match. Where's the damn help!!

The year is a write off now.

We cant win a flag with this lot of players.

The bottom of the ladder beckons us for the next few years.

Get a f***** grip. it will get better. The game is s*** we can't play the dons but who cares. we have still beat the teams that matter this year. They may be training harder, they may be looking too far forward. Who cares it's one game.

It's not just one game here, it's been 4 weeks now!!

We struggled against a pathetic brisbane side, got destroyed by a more committed pies side, pinched 2 points off the umps last week and have showed NO HEART or ability around the packs tonight.

Dogs, pies and cats are so far ahead of us it's not funny. We have been found out. wont win a flag for another 6 years IMO

ralphsmith · Fri 30 Jul 2010 11:03pm

Haven't won a game in 3 weeks.

It's 3 games.

It's a problem. There is a severe problem.

if this is planned then those in charge need their head read.

Players are not hungry enough....put them in a room and play the bloody 2009 grand final over and over till they actually WANT the ball and WANT to tackle

Yep, shithouse

But we always lose to Essendon, whether we're on top or bottom of the ladder, we just can never beat Essendon, so I was not at all suprised to lose at all.

Too many passangers just guarding space.

Gram needs to be dropped, sick of his long bombs to nowhere.

The midfield was absolutely disgraceful. We really miss Armo in the middle. Whoever thinking Stevens can replace Armo is out of their mind. Armo is our hard in and under player, usually with the most tackles as well, yet people complain he doesn't do enough when he doesn't have the ball... ffs that's not his job, leave that to Ray and Peake. Imo Stevens takes McQualters spot, not Armo.

walski · Post: # 965008Post **walski** » Fri 30 Jul 2010 11:13pm

Tonight going to make us or break us imo....

I will be looking at the reaction next week to make comment about tonight.

But I know from past recent history it can go down hill but maybe this is the wake call a lot of people need.

But tonight is a turning point one way or the other no two ways about it.

lefty · Post: # 965060Post **lefty** » Fri 30 Jul 2010 11:28pm

oh and one more thing

Can the runners stop giving free kicks away, makes me angry. Every week.

SydneySainter · Fri 30 Jul 2010 11:30pm

Any other top four side would have won tonight.

We're in big trouble. This is a game we HAD to win and I bet you that not even Lyon knows what to think.

The club had it's chance at premiership glory last year and the missed opportunity will hurt for a LONG time yet.

Tonight was a bit hard on the runner the ball was kicked over where he was running to go off the ground, he didn't interfere with play he did not run over a players mark. There were other instances tonite where runners were closer to the play than that free kick. The umpires need to be consistent with that rule but that will never happen.
