[BringBackMadDog]

there goes pick 3.......just what we need......

you are kidding aren't you????

[The Craw]

Needed someone to stand up .... Dmac was the one. Moist!!

[bigred]

I'm happy for the guys, but I'm not even sure that win is good for the club in any way, shape or form.

Thats how bad this year has actually been.

If your not sure, then I am sure.

I am sure you are an idiot!

I take it "YOU'RE" spending the night wallpapering over cracks.

nothing to see here...

Move along.

Don't worry. It doesn't change anything

There is an awful big lump under the carpet after tonight

[The Peanut]

I watched the last 5 minutes on the train. Was the rest of the game as good?

[Bruce G McAbee]

We are still 16th

Ambivalence - so bad was the first half, so uninspiring and absent any real suggestion we have a team that may one day get back to the level needed that playing one good quarter cannot quite be enough. Any other opposition and we would all be lining up to sign a petition to sack the coach. As it is, we have too many turn over merchants.
Where too from here, I would trade Ross, We might get a second round for him. Keeps us in the draft.

[stevie]

That was unreal to be a part of it. There were tons of Saints fans there and we were all going crazy. Bloody fantastic fight back

Fantastic you were there at the end to see the win Stevie; reckon I heard you booing all of the non free kicks in the first half!

Once we got to 11 points with time left all the boys lifted and played like madmen. The pressure was huge keeping it in our foward line. The Suns seemed to panic and had no one to steady them. Arno was huge in those frantic final minutes. And I liked Mav’s game. In the third qtr he was our only standout

[Sainter_Dad]

Guys - I have told you before - I have found the solution to our problem.

It was my mother's birthday today, and so she came over to have cake and watch the game before going out to dinner. Her dinner reservations were at 7:00pm do she stayed here until 6:30pm - or 3/4 time - she then went to dinner

I need a slush fund to send her to dinner each time we play.

[Trev from the Bush]

I find this forum hilarious at times.

If we keep losing, all hell breaks loose. If we win, all hell breaks loose.

The only thing I can take from most of the comments on this thread is being negative is a positive with the "in" crowd.

[portosaint]

The "in" crowd? Are you 14??

[satchmo]

That's what we call a "circuit breaker"!

Enjoy the night people, and ffs relax.
No need for sad sack until Monday. A day off, ja?

[samuraisaint]

How important is Gresham? We will be a lot better when Long comes back too.
Does anybody else on here think that McCartin should just play as a utility? He seems to play that role pretty well, and he ended up kicking a couple of goals anyway.
And Battle must play every game for the rest of the year.
Two men down and we fight back from 7 goals down. Well played.

McCartin is being trained to 'flat hand' the marking contest, or he has a technical flaw in his game.

There is no doubt it is being coached - Paddy marks so well outside of the fifty.

I will say it again - Paddy CHF - Back of the square forward - delivering to the forwards - his 50 mtr passes are awesome - and Josh Battle playing FF

Absolutely. Our structure became so much better. Battle is our FF, Paddy at CHF, Membrey and Gresh our mobile targets throw in Bruce when he comes back and we look ok. Dont mind Armo playing forward also. He presented well. Well done old fella.

[Teflon]

We beat a rabble who have a history of not scoring in last quarters
Let’s keep this we’ll in check we were terrible for 3/4 of the game ffs that’s not negative just reality

[The Fireman]

torn

[DWOODROW]

We are so slow.

what did you expect from those ins ?
Armo is cooked has been for 12 months but we keep playing him...

Slow enough to be in a winning team. Stick it up your arse d**khead.

<warning for abuse>

[DWOODROW]

Was lost at the selection table.

Longer. Weller. Armo. Paddy. McKenzie.

Slow as treacle.

Stuart Dew isn't stupid and just adjusted his team accordingly.

Arno was great tonight. Some of his work in close was A1, especially in the last.

Still love seeing him come storming through a stoppage chest puffing and breaking tackles. Such a unit

[Newman]

I'm just happy for a win. Much much better than Suns replying with a goal in the dying seconds. For some of our players they sing theme song for first time.

[Teflon]

there goes pick 3.......just what we need......

you are kidding aren't you????

Nah pick 3 ok still....
Pick 1 is what I’m after
I don’t kid
People who kid themselves still think it’s in our best interests to win every game from here on in
I don’t do that unashamedly I just want talent into the side so we can really challenge not ‘honourable wins’ against dud sides like GC

Settle down d!ck he’s still cooked and can’t run out of sight on a dark night
Where was he first 3 quarters when we were being bent over by a dud side?
Fock me we beat a side who haven’t kicked a goal in the last qtr for their last 4 games and out comes every turnip and I couldn’t give a <edited by mods> if he’s your brother, cousin sister or Aunty
