Re: Match Thread Saints v Port Round 19 2017

Too many short-stepping arm tacklers in the team to be any good. Thank goodness we don't embarrass ourselves by playing against the men of the competition in Finals! Disgusted. Yes - I should be proud we gave our best. I should be proud that for the past 25 years 'we gave our best.' Right now is abo...

Re: Match Thread Saints v Port Round 19 2017

I'm proposing we change our uniform next year... Yellow stripe down the middle of the back?! Seb Ross... to showy and short steps when there's a contest waiting. Greasham much the same and arm tackles. Something is wrong with Steven... If you don't have the ticker... stay home! As for the commentato...

Sometimes boys get ahead of themselves... boys like Billings. "Yeah but he's a lovely young man..." I hear all you grandmothers saying. You wouldn't believe the number of 'lovely young men' we've had through this Club in the last 25 years! None of them can play football - that's their ONLY...

Re: Goodbye 2017

Seems to me we started the year OK... with a few games of our 'brand' on display in the first half of the season. Then it was back to making excuses and being asked to be patient. Sydney is patient... 6 weeks worth of it! Having mediocrity shoved down your throat leads to people looking forward to t...

If Richo doesn't go at the end of this year - his whole assistant's panel needs a bloody good clean-out! They bring nothing! Geelong has the best 'nursery' model of all league teams.

15minutes 30seconds in first quarter - game over! Boys versus Men - again. Too many short-steppers. Bruise-free football at its most pathetic!

Pathetic. Schoolyard keepings-off and we have been 'bullied!'

Richo was clearly out-coached... and it seems he has no Plan B? We need more MEN in th...

We must have some of the dumbest footballers going around in the AFL... and sadly it seems they ALL play for StKilda FC..?!

Disappointing indeed - but what can you hope for when you have a confused coach who doesn't have a distinct game (style) plan... is de-skilling our players quicker than Tony Shaw ever could at Collingwood and is using 'newbies' as a crutch to his own inabilities..? Honestly. This bloke makes Ross Ly...

Why do we have all the kids in defence for the last quarter? Why is Fisher not there in first 10 minutes of last quarter? Where was Montagna? Poor coaching effort - that's why!

As a supporter I don't mind losing... but when it is accompanied by slow, heartless football is when it starts to get to you. Players pulling-up TWO steps short of a contest is NOT the way to play Sydney. Our talls... not willing to make an aerial contest... is NOT the way to play football. And don'...
