I feel like I'm watching a Richo coached side from a few weeks back. More points than goals at half time. Dejavu. More inside can't capitalise.

Conversion has cost us, should be in front.
Yep after setting Melbourne up in the first they gave us s couple although paid a free to Clark when he actually marked it.
We were stuffed in the first until the umps brought us back into it. Keep up the cheating umps 8-)

It’s usually ruined by just one idiot. So why not have a party. Funnily enough, that single idiot is fairly quiet this evening. I wonder why.

Must have told the umps to cheat for us this week.
We only have to touch the ball in the forward line to be paid a mark like Langlands and Clark.

And they don’t go down as frees, they are marks, clever Gill 8-) keep up the cheating it’s keeping us in the game.
Love Gil, great Saints man!

Enough about the umps. They had enough derision growing up as failed sportsmen. Of course they are substandard - part and parcel of the psychological makeup of those that choose the path. But like govt clerks and childcare workers, at least there’s something out there for them. The meek may not inherit the earth but they get by alright.

Yes indeed. 2.5.17 and three complete misses that quarter. That’s a 20% conversion rate.

Wilkie is such a gun. Does everything well. How did he not get picked up earlier.
Really like the side showing their resilience.
Even liking Newnes game tonight.

I guess umpiring is only unfair when it’s against us.

Yep 👍

If certain posters are so insistent of constantly commenting on umpiring (which I am against), then it’s only fair it goes both ways, right?

I think the key to this game is Gawn...

Need to find a way to neutralise him. Melbourne’s dominance has coincided with his. Marshall doing what he can...

I think Clark's wsa a free. Fitch went straight at thr body with no eyes for the ball.

Langland's was clearly a mark - and at least they were consistent and paid Gawn in their F50.

Lonie 3 touches?

To be fair, you could prob count our players who’ve had a good game so far on one hand.

Dominating them but gee we don’t take our chances - last week an unfortunate statistical aberration- good chance it’ll come back to hurt us. Again.
C’mon fellas - really hate losing to the Dees.

It is going both ways though tonight. Unlike the North Geelong Collingwood games.

We definitely have a lot of possible improvement across the board!

Am loving Coffield as well.

Absolute class when he gets it.

Glad to see Carlisle swung forward after an average night... mix it up a bit.

Wilkie great
Ross and Dunstan bull’ish
Acres worked his way back after missing the first quarter and a half
Need more from our small forwards... Long, Lonie and Gresh

Savage out for White... that’s the change I want to see.
