Re: Votes Discussion Thread
The more useless statistic is Steele because what did he generate with ball in hand (when not tackling)? How many times did Steele control from the contest either kicking forward (including to 6/6/6) or dishing off to the bypass in space? Worms Roxanne worms!! Let’s look at numbers: Steele got 30 t...

Re: RTB's Presser
any credence to the fact he's coaching one of the youngest and talentless teams in the comp? That’s rubbish and you know it. We have 2 current All Australians from the 2023 side. We have Jack Steele who is a dual All Australian like Jack Sinclair. We have a star in Brad Hill. He wave Seb Ross and M...

Re: RTB's Presser
And for what it's worth, we have a midfielder, albeit a champion, coaching the forward line and a midfield coach with no experience. Is this the norm among the top teams? Yes men perhaps? Yesmen tend to keep their jobs at St Kilda Let’s hope there’s someone who can challenge Ross during the week an...

Re: Votes Discussion Thread
Last year I was critical of Brad Crouch when he played a selfish brand of footy In some games he was outstanding. In some games he had a balance and he looked to dish off by hand. The problem with RoMa’s game yesterday was that there wasn’t a balance. I saw Sincs and NWM being ignored when he had th...

Re: Votes Discussion Thread
The player on 22 contested possessions (Stewie Leowe) When Stewie Loewe got 22 he would’ve taken a dozen contested marks no doubt. You know Marshall is having a good day and you know we are a good chance to win in a game when RoMa is taking contested marks He only got 1 for the day Wood got 4, Wilk...

Re: Votes v Hawks
Marshall was enormous 23 contested possessions A StK all time record - since that data has been recorded How many of his possessions resulted in direct turnovers and clangers? The stats say 14 of them. I remember one of his kicks from the full back line went straight to a Hawks player 20 m out dead...

Re: Match Thread: Saints vs Hawks
Bonner was our scapegoat for the loss against Essendon. I suppose we had to blame someone He actually got a fair amount of footy and his work rate was there, but a few howlers were unforgivable I watched that Essendon match on replay and it wasn’t the worst game I’ve ever seen from a Saints player. ...

Re: RTB's Presser
Every week Teflon wants us to enjoy our team kicking low scores.
One day we’ll kick a perfect score of 20 goals and zero behinds.
Teflon knows it’s coming soon. Hang in there turnips

5 Steele 4 Bonner 3 Battle 2 Wilkie 1 Wood Apologies to Windy, Marshall and NWM. It was a toss up for me between Wood and Windy for the 1 vote. Wood had more contested possessions than Windy and his disposal efficiency was markedly better. Windy tried his guts out, but needs a bit more polish in his...

Re: Votes v Hawks
Can see a few people giving Marshall best on. He got 28 touches at 50% disposal efficiency. 14 effective disposals He had 11 turnovers and another 4 clanger possessions….so let’s look at that and compare with his opponent Meek beat him as far as tap outs in the centre and probably broke even around ...

Re: RTB's Presser
Ahhhh…so you didn’t
it’s called Aussie rules footy.It’s a pretty good level comp. He was outstanding in the last quarter against North
By the way…it was Dow’s second game at VFL level. Why does he need 3 warm up games?
Why the f*** did we recruit him again?

Re: RTB's Presser
I am a Ross Lyon fan. The best coach to coach St Kilda in my memory. That said, he needs to own how we are playing in terms of attacking and hitting the scoreboard. Put the acid on a insipid midfield and dysfunctional forward half. Those are factors he can identify as requiring improvement, he simp...

Re: Chicken or the Egg
Look, I just don’t agree with people blaming one player or 2-3 players for losses. I also don’t agree on the coach solely taking the blame. It’s a team game. You wear the losses the same as when you celebrate the victories…as a team The sooner they start doing that, the better our culture and the so...

Re: Chicken or the Egg
I like what you’re saying. I totally agree on the youth thing, but you lost me with your line about your criticism of Jimmy Webster and praise for Ben Paton … Paton is the better lock down defender.

Re: Match Thread: Saints vs Hawks
And what does that mean? Perhaps if we did not - we wouldn’t be 3-6 We dropped to 15th on the ladder in 2018. We refused to trade out Jack Steven when he was worth something at the end of that year. We brought in a banged up and washed up ex champion in Dan Hannebery. Swans keenly and gladly let go...

Re: Ins and Outs
I don't agree with Paton being preferred over Dow. Paton was ok but I reckon Lyon wants him for a tagging or run with role Hawthorn have a pretty good midfield so not a bad strategy, but we recruitd Dow for our midfield. With Crouch out, we need to see if Dow can improve our clearances. We should b...

Re: Hayes the missing link
He was good last week. Could have possibly been important in the second half for us but Lyon decided to sub him off early Might have been part of the plan to sub him out, but he wasn't killing it before that was he? He wasn't alone in that respect The fact remains that we had half a dozen players to...

Re: Membrey should have been subbed off, Not Hayes!
But the thing is... you have to coach that out of him.
Lift your game Max or you're playing VFL son
A good coach will get the best out of the talent he has. Either you motivate him and get him to perform or ship him off
Let's see what the magician can do with that wand
