Match Thread Saints v Lions Round 22 2022

[Banger9798]

Stop rolling the f****** ball around in your hands

[1966]

Fast ball movement and winning some contested ball.
Can’t question the effort tonight.
Execution not great but effort great.
All the more disappointing when you think how many times the effort hasn’t been there this season.

Max King
STOP SPINNING THE FCING BALL
He just needs to go back and pretend he’s kicking from 50 kick through the ball max ffs

[st.byron]

Drag King and scream at the f***wit to stop spinning the f****** ball, Ratten

No no. Don’t upset him. Speak kindly and give him a cuddle. Get him to do some deep breathing. F*** me. It’s literally the difference between being 5 points up and 5 goals up.

[spert]

Didn't King's inaccuracy cost us the last game against Brisbane? It's VFL standard

[The Fireman]

Got me stuffed. If Ratten doesn’t get king to spend all training sessions kicking at goal he can get stuffed

[Teflon]

Who is helping King with his kicking??? Seriously costing him sodas

[Teflon]

We should be 3 up

[bergsone]

I dont care what anyone else thinks Get Lloyd down there to teach him how to kick NOW

[SaintJohno]

We get the once in a generation forward who can’t kick

So good being a sainter.

[StPeter]

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE STOP KING SPINNING THE f****** BALL AS HE’S WALKING INTO f****** GOAL!!!

I have been saying for at least 2 years how costly this is for King.

Matthew Lloyd had a full segment on The Footy Show explaining how destructive this is to his accuracy but still NOTHING is done about it.

You would never see Lockett or Dunstan spinning the ball like that!!

[MC Gusto]

Great qtr. king frustrating no doubt but it was a 3rd qtr from the start of the season. Where’s it been?! Question is whether we can keep it up? We’ve got them rattled that’s for sure

I got no doubt, that’s what he’d be telling him

[Ghost Like]

Max walks in like he's in a musical. Is he a Shark?

[The_Dud]

The spinning isn’t the problem, he has it in the right position well before kicking.

It looks like his ball drop is way too high, that’s where the issues occur

[BadRossco]

King will cost us this game, others giving their all and him wasting it. Time to play him down back as he 8s a liability up forward

[The Fireman]

Anyways where were we. Oh yeah. Great effort by the boys that qrt

[Bruce G McAbee]

Brisbane have only had a 5 day break.

[silverhalo]

We're so much better when we move the ball on quickly!

[st.byron]

Thing is. Even if we do go on and win it will still feel hollow to me. We’re going nowhere with Ratten. He’s Richo Mk.II. Piss him off instead of sign him up. Bloody farce.

[wasoncestkil58]

That's really embarrassing

[suss]

Love this thread. So Ratten is to blame for King’s shoddy goal kicking. FMD.

[Ghost Like]

Owens & Windy, both stand up for the jumper. These are our 2nd flag players.

[bangaulegend]

Max is a keeper win lose or draw I still want him yeah he has missed shots that even I could have kicked but hey he is giving it a crack

[st.byron]

Ratten is the head coach responsible for the performance of all the players. If a player demonstrates the same fault over and over and over and over and it doesn’t change, then the coach is ultimately responsible to take some action. Yes the buck stops with him. That’s what Head Coach means,
