Re: It’s a final

If we bang the table and demand better then they will get better, don’t you know that’s how it works Instead of focusing on Pou and Caminiti, ask these questions Ross went at 45% efficiency up until midway 3rd quarter How did Hunter Clark go, was he effective? Crouch double grabbed everything Higgin...

Re: Unpopular opinion

He wasn’t beaten on the day I think it was the right match up Who else could play on toby? NWM - nope Battle - too loose and not agile/quick enough Webster - cannot go with him aerially Cordy - nope Sinclair - nope Toby was the one to negate Unfortunately our mids got smashed and our pressure was no...

Re: Liam Henry

End of 2nd round has been mooted nowhere
That would be 3 years at 500
We would match that and force trade for pick 20-25 which gets Henry
Very easy really

Re: Finals Week 1 scenarios

Sydney is the clear most likely opponent. 60/40 whether we finish ahead of them. Unless Melbourne tank for a home final against Collingwood instead of travelling to Port or Brisbane. Interesting question if you're Melbourne - Collingwood at the G, Port in Adelaide, or Brisbane in Brisbane - what do...

Re: Meh to the Sharman doubters.

He has played 30 games in basically the hardest spot on the ground, CHF or at least a decoy HF. He played wing part of the night the other night. In a team of poor goal kickers he is a beacon of light Un predictable X factor can play anywhere, he could be anything under RTB Hope he stays in. As for ...

Re: Dan & Jack Make Choices Look Hard?

I actually cannot think of any St Kilda player who makes these decisions look easy, besides NWM & Sincs from half back, so I am a little baffled why these two are singled out. Butler gets criticised for not kicking enough goals but chases and tackles like it's 2nd nature. Higgins presents and k...

Great players make a great coach, once the coach turns them into a great team
But a bad coach can ruin great players because the great team isn’t created

Re: Sandringham

Adams doesn't really have the physique to play as a key back. He's built similarly to Nick Blakey. In fact, he reminds me a lot of a guy who used to play for us in the early 1990s called Tim Elliot, who was a kind of defender/back up ruck. He does some good things, but he has his fair share of howl...

Re: Changing coaches has been a failure, IMHFO.

Anyone that doesn’t think the change of the coach has made any difference have short memories from last year. We were shocking last year in too many games and lost by big margins. Wonder what we would have been like this year with last years injury run…. We have more players in their way to A grade ...

Re: Jekyll n Hyde

Maybe, just maybe we got the ball more often in the 2nd half meaning we didn’t have the same need to tackle and maybe the ball was on the outside a little more??!

Re: Umpire Leigh Fisher

He should never umpire our games, he never pays us 50/50 frees, he is trying too hard to be impartial and it goes against us.
He did not pay us a free kick that I saw, one time an out of zone umpire had to overrule him for a free kick to us
