Re: Match Thread Saints v Port Round 7 2024

Port adelaide had 16 more free kicks.
It is bloody hard to beat such blatant corruption.

Re: Match Thread Saints v Port Round 7 2024

Lost because of the umpiring.
I hope the players not lose too much heart when the competition is so corrupt.

Re: The match

Honestly, not unhappy with that

Good experience in finals for the young guys. They could have easily folded and it would have been a blowout but we did not give up easily.

GWS are a quality side and I think they can win the flag.

Re: Let’s get fair dinkum

I am already seeing peoples hatred for stkilda growing since Ross Lyon was appointed.

I suppose that is better than nobody caring about you.

As they say the only thing worse than everyone taking about you behind your back, is nobody taking about you.

I will give Lyon another chance.

Re: Dumb pundits and opposition fans

The problem with all the hate are the eventual umpiring decisions that cost us games. Like freo years ago, the umps boasting about getting a win over us. They are only human, i do not believe the games are rigged but i do believe umpires are human and dislike certain teams which clouds their judgeme...

Re: Dumb pundits and opposition fans

Re: POLL Y or N- happy for Ross to be our guy again?

I find it interesting that some of the most ardent critics of Ratten, especially around him being (in their eyes) Mr Cuddles and having a wishy-washy game plan are now against the appointment of a guy who is a hard task master and meticulous with his game plan. I find this odd, therefore, I can onl...

Re: Welcome Ross Lyon

This is terrible news. Ross will become fixated on some VFL standard player like Zack Dawson or Andrew Mcqualter and continually play them week after week costing us games. When has a coach ever left a team and then returned later to win flag(s) , in the last 30 years? His brutal , harsh regime will...

Re: Ross Lyon?

Ross Lyon has failed and failed again. We lost grand finals because he insisted on keeping well below par players on the list. We had some great players on the list who were largely able to cancel out the VFL standard ones. But in the grand finals they got found out Ross Lyon would doom us to more y...

Re: Horror show!!!

2 goals in 3 quarters. What an embarrassment. How many millions in total are these players paid to give us 2 goals in 3 quarters? Appalling umpiring aside, that was an embarrassing performance. Where is the fire and desire? Where is the rage to win the ball and hammer through goals? Utterly appallin...

Re: What can we do about our goal kicking?

Indeed. We would have been 10 goals up at half time with better kicking.

We would have been grinding the cats into the dirt in the 3rd quarter with better accuracy.

Just one of those weird games you see where a team seemingly dominates, but loses.

Normally we would have lost that game due to umpiring.
