Probably the worst quarter of football I have seen in my 34 years as a st kilda supporter.. I honestly can't remember such garbage it looked like men against boys. Richo has to go, seems like a nice guy but we can't stand for that pathetic crap

Can you think of anyone that would want the job?

I think Richo knows full well he is nearing the end - was in his voice on tv just then

It's a little sad to watch

Ludicrous that they would all play in the same team.

We'd struggle to get a blue ribbon in the 400m at little athletics out of that lot.
Hang on Portosaint, I coach Little Athletics, and I object to you bringing them into it . We don’t just give blue ribbons away at Little Aths . White ones yes, but not blue.

they look lost, no system or game plan, the Brisbane players know where to be..at the drop of the ball way in front of any ST player. Admittedly they are showing some classy talent something we have in small amounts but unable to implement.
This all points to one thing

what makes CHOwder ?...a spud.

Another 4 goals to the Lions and I think that will be it for the Cho...100 points is the magic number

I’ll take it.

Hundreds of thousands of dollars and all I’d have to do is, well not much really.

Then I’ll get sacked.

Then I can say to the board ‘See, how hard was that?’

It's just not the coach, but better recruiters as well.
At least in the 80's we had hope with Plugger, Frawley etc.


Think of me long enough to make a memory.

Fully agree - terrible list, worse midfield.

Newnes most consecutive games in Saints history - the worst consecutive games in history

Positive is Hind

Another positive is that once Richo is sacked, Newnes might FINALLY be dropped

Commentators said in the last quarter we were 'panicked'. Totally false. We're indifferent and that's much worse. Disgraceful display.


This was my father's belief
And this is also mine:
Let the corn be all one sheaf--
And the grapes be all one vine,
Ere our children's teeth are set on edge
By bitter bread and wine.

Every week there’s a positive. This year we’ve had Kent, Parker, Hind, Wilkie, Battle......but then they fall away. Why?
Because there is no inspiration, no spark, no confidence, no leadership. I simply cannot accept that all the young fellas on our list are as rubbish as they are playing. If they looked like a confident team, their skills would all of a sudden improve dramatically.

I look forward to Kent etc. kicking some junk time goals so they can justify getting picked next week!

Incompetent administration. Poor decisions leading us to have a keep a coach for financial reasons when it was clear as day he should have been sacked last year.

This is the way that opposition teams like us.
Weak and harmless and inoffensive.
No threat.
Inexplicably loyal to a useless coach.
That's why Carey ludicrously called Richo "coach of the year".
