Re: Match Thread: Saints vs Kangas

It's not the Saints, it's Sandringham and it's a joke. Can we please, please get our own reserves side anytime soon. I'd be buggered if I can see how that would help. The Kangaroos reserves side looks like a joke to me. The fact that we aren't 50 points ahead at half-time is also a joke, but it's n...

Re: Match Thread: Saints vs Kangas

It's not the Saints, it's Sandringham and it's a joke. Can we please, please get our own reserves side anytime soon. Like North Melbourne? Their case is self-sabotage. They played consecutive prelims in 2014 and 2015 and finals again in 2016 before sacking their best players to fast track a rebuild.

Re: King ...out of form or

I saw King make space in front of where we were sitting (Bay 24) and the kick went directly to the benefit of the opposition. I think the problem isn't the forward in this situation, but the release kick, or whatever you want to call it, into the forward line. Mids and wingers getting space on their...

Re: St.Kilda 🆚 Bottom Teams

If North beat us they will only be 1 game behind us on the ladder, aren't we a bottom team? That's a big 'if' and it won't happen today.

Re: Things we must do v North

North Melbourne have conceded 100 points or more in every game this year, and average just 71 points a game. We average 73 points a game. North have have actually kicked more goals than us in 2024. We need to score 80+ in my opinion. We've only done that once in our last 9 games. Twice, we did it i...

Re: Higgins Alir incident

So with Higgins out, Butler out and Gresham traded - who are going to be the small forwards in the next few weeks? Collard has to come in. Henry might be right next week apparently. We will play Hawthorn in Tas so no difference between that and a warmup in the VFL anyway. Hawthorn will not just be ...

Re: The Jimmy Situation

They don't have McKay, Goldstein, Cunnington, Ziebell, or Thomas anymore.
Should be a 50 point win.
I wouldn't play Webster, but only because he hasn't played any games since the praccy, not due to worrying about North.
Paton should come in, for mine.

Hopefully we can reset after the bye in round 19 or whenever that is. Thank you, AFL.
+ 1.

Several of the teams we are playing in the next 6 weeks lost heavily today. All beatable.

If we're so bad, how come we only just lost to Geelong at Geelong with half our side out?

The next three weeks we must win, but I am philosophical about the season so far.

from a lot of the stuff I have seen on SS and bigfooty and talkback. We never seem to beat Port which sh1ts me, but we have to be realistic.

No better place to start than this week.
They've been raging favourites in their home finals too, in the past, and they usually lose them.
No excuses. We just need to kick straight early and start well.
