Re: Official second half match thread v Dogs
How can a bloke take seven steps over the mark and try to knock it out of Roo's hand and be given no penalty?

Thanks Kosi, I started one too; we're all a bit over excited.
26 possies to Jack at half time. Unbelievable.

Re: Official second half match thread v Dogs
While it is still great to be up against the Dogs at half time, you can't help but feel we are keeping them in this with out own indecision and bad kicking/handballs. Gtreat in midfield passages only to butcher the ball forward still a recurring theme it seems :/
All in all though you'd take that considering our last game. Plus Riewoldt continues to haunt the dogs

Re: Official second half match thread v Dogs
Weller is the real deal, bloody star along with Stevens......Acres has the motion and thought process of a sloth..hope the kid snaps out of that...but should be in the twos.
wish I was a neutral watching this game...what a ripper despite poor umpiring.

Re: Official second half match thread v Dogs
yeah a ripping game so far. great pressure and i love our fast run on hanball on at all costs. skill errors to be expected, but a few of them have been especially poor.
keep it up saints!

Remember when BJ used to stand there like a rabbit in the headlights. Blacres will take some time. But he is a massive unit and I really think he will get there.

Re: Official second half match thread v Dogs
Great first half! Terrific pressure from both sides and with that in mind good skills on display.

Dunstan playing a sensational game.
If at first you don't succeed, sky diving is not for you.

Re: Official second half match thread v Dogs
Best game of Dunstan's career. Incredible hands in the clinch and good off the boot.
This was my father's belief
And this is also mine:
Let the corn be all one sheaf--
And the grapes be all one vine,
Ere our children's teeth are set on edge
By bitter bread and wine.

Re: Official second half match thread v Dogs
Saints have kicked the last 5 goals of the game. Leading by 18. Roo has 4, Steven is everywhere and dunstan weller et al really stepping up
