Marshall was always going to be underdone. Did what he had to and got through unscathed. Better for the run

Will Connolly play next week ?


The Saints are under review, will it make any difference to the underachievers ?

Great stuff saints. Marshall so important to us, structurally and mentally. Dunny taking his chance. Looks to have finally developed a tank and is able to play out games. Making a few kockers on here eat their words. Connelly chose a good time to debut. Just a feel good effort from the guys tonight. Well done!

Some may disagree but I thought Coffield was pretty good before he got injured

Both untouchable snipers like Guy McKenna and John Worsfold in their heyday. Later day A Grade snipers were the Scott Brothers. Couldn’t touch Goodes. Pop on Saints jumper and you get weeks.

Connolly got a few cheap kicks at the end but he has a beautiful peg and he didnt look out of place

His first run past handball receive was sensational .... unfortunately he just missed hitting the target with his handball

Well done Saints....great defence

Howard was excellent
Dunstan a ball pig, has now got the fitness to make up for his lack of speed

Loved Connelly's first touch, bouncing it with three Tigers on him

Please he's 1000 times better than Hunter. He plays like a midfielder.

Richmond ran onto the oval with the four points in the bank, but forgot to tell the Saints. Their arrogance bought them undone. Well Done boys, I just wish that sort of effort had been there in a few other games and I could book my ticket to the finals

Marshall of course is better than Hunter, would be on one leg

Tonight
10 touches
12 Hit Outs
Never hit the scoreboard

He was just OK

We are certainly a better team with him in, but he didn’t do a great deal.

Coffield was real again….it was Coff, back to his best, and then Bamn, his injury.

But Collony finally played…and not bad.


Oh…mighty Saints…

WTF. Neither of those two were snipers. Worsfold was just hard at the ball. Probably harder than Dermot. McKenna was a clean ball player and was usually the snipee!! What universe are you living in?

Be good if we could identify our Daniel Rich equivalent.

By fork, he can kick the footy 'to advantage''.
