Match Thread Saints v Dockers Round 15 2017

[shrodes]

Webster been poor this quarter

[bigcarl]

We'd be in front if we could kick. Very frustrating not to get reward for effort

[Proph3t of egan]

Carlisle a freak

[shrodes]

Carlisle again!

[MC Gusto]

Jakey C on fire

[Proph3t of egan]

Skills are s***, again, what's new

[shrodes]

We should be up, Freo are bad

[carn_sainter]

Guys, get over the umpiring. It's not that bad at all.

[WellardSaint]

Skills are s***, again, what's new

Skills get worse when you get tired.
This is what will make a difference in the last qtr
Need to be more accurate and find somebody in space correctly
Use the ball better
Big diff between 7 out of 10 kicks finding a teammate in a great position,
and 5 out of 10.
Every wasted kick could end up a turnover because our guys get caught out running away from a Docker
so they are now free in big numbers

FFS FFS

[The_Dud]

Guys, get over the umpiring. It's not that bad at all.

Exactly!

[Joffa Burns]

Another WA game, another ridiculously one-sided umpiring display.

I'll bite, you must be taking the plss.
Gresh gift in the goal square and reversal on Ballantine gave us a 2 goal turn around.

Yep cheating umps again, you know their cheating against StKilda is sanctioned by the AFL!

[Bruce G McAbee]

We need Bruce, Membrey and Reiwoldt to hold marks and kick goals inside our forward 50.

[WellardSaint]

Guys, get over the umpiring. It's not that bad at all.

if we get 5 bad decisions, it pales against our 15 poor kicks that go straight to a Docker
Think about what the team can control or correct, not about what they can't control

[carn_sainter]

We've kicked 6 goals in a half and we're getting beat out of the guts.

So much room for improvement...playing really quite poorly.

6 goals in a half! Why can't we get 10 in a half? We've kicked 19 against hawthorn and 16 against gws but not got over 15 otherwise.

Raise the bar, Saints. Demand a higher standard!

[Joffa Burns]

Guys, get over the umpiring. It's not that bad at all.

Exactly!

Nup, don't use common sense.

[BadRossco]

Agree with carn_sainter umps are not to blame for our poor skills and lack of pace

[SaintPav]

Longer falls over a lot

[The_President]

Did we swing Carlisle forward or has he just crept forward for his two snags?

That's so Zen

[saintsRrising]

Lonie is a specialist small forward....and yet messed up three easy opportunities to set up goals. His kicking is poor.

[shrodes]

Did we swing Carlisle forward or has he just crept forward for his two snags?

Snuck forward

[mbogo]

Imagine if they could hit a target.
Imagine if they could kick a goal?
The saints would be in the eight
And have a chance to grasp the holy grail

[Sainter_Dad]

Did we swing Carlisle forward or has he just crept forward for his two snags?

Just creeps forward, playing defence - but if there is a passage for the play he goes forward - his 2nd was a from our set shot just outside 50

[WellardSaint]

Steele 3 and 3 kicks and handballs
8 tackles
needs a lot more output
at this rate he'll only have 12 touches by the end

[Proph3t of egan]

Steele should not be in the team, has got as many touches as Longer! Dunstan and Roberton also sitting on 6, and need to do better
