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 co...

+1.

His two goals in the third (especially the second where we were struggling to hit set shots) were massive and Lenny Hayes like in his endeavour to will his team forward!

A kick so bad it didn't even go to the opposition

Much maligned player but in the last ten seconds of the fourth quarter made a fantastic save against two Geelong players that allowed the ball to be pulled to the ground and a goal shot denied that could arguably have saved us the match. Fair criticism is due, but you also got to give credit where i...

To be fair, I don't think having one good game negates all of Gilbert's past errors this year (although a few more games at his kicking efficiency will more than make up for that) but the issue here is he has played a fantastic game with the whole team and it seemed unnecessary to bump a past thread...

Thanks Jason
You played your heart out for the club
Bled for the saints and we will miss you

Wish you nothing but the best for the future

Amazing club man who while unlucky with injures certainly made the best of what he had and gave 100% and that's all you can ever ask of a player. Wish you the best of luck with your new family Kosi, you will be missed!

Absolute champion of the club and a pleasure to watch over the years. Always brings a buzz about him with his record of doing the impossible when hanging around the goals, he was truly the barometer of the team and will be missed for many years to come.

Thank you Milney, thank you.

I guess the armchair coaches here know so much more eh?

I look forward to bumping this thread after Sunday.

I just don't see how you can sit back and say "Oh yeah, the captain showing on field frustration is the reason our kids are low on confidence." On that note, I say once more, HE DID NOT BAG STANLEY FOR STANDING UP AND TAKING RESPONSIBILITY (some people cannot get past this issue). He would...

I don't understand how you can compare us to teams who weren't 10 goals down at quarter time due to a pathetic effort from the group as a team besides a select few. When you're so soundly beaten you can't get your hands on the damn ball then why should Roo or any other leader be giving out ass taps ...

Apart from this year Riewoldt's conversion rate has been very average. Some of the spots he leads to are ridiculous. Work rate unquestioned but often demands the ball when better options may be available. Past conversion rate is irrelevant as this year is has been just about spot on which is what r...

What did Rhys do to get a spray? Turn his back to the field when he marked? Rhys marked outside fifty and immediately turned his back on play - ignoring a lead from Roo much loser to home in the process. He kicked the goal, but it was still a bad error. You should always be aware of what is happeni...

Don't usually reply often, but I think some people in this thread are really misunderstanding qualities of 'leadership.' Re the Rhys issue - I think people are really misunderstanding what Roo was frustrated about - it wasn't Rhys having a crack and standing up (in fact as soon as he kicked the goal...
