Butler can go and he had a better option.

Whimpering out of the season
If the club doesn’t swap out at least 5 they can go jump

The tactic of kicking it in circles in the backline just so we can turn it over on the wing in genius.

Here we go
Saints stop start footy second half
It’s like we decide to shut up shop and close enough us good enough
Now we can’t even move the ball

Plenty of chances to be even with them if basic targets had been hit.

Ben Long has been very good down back
Glad someone is calling out Longs good form here and the way we've gone about it.

Plenty to like about this game for a team that isn't making the 8.

If you listen to some of the people in this thread Long would have been moved on years ago.

We need to improve 5 to 7 on our list not throw the baby out with the bathwater.

They don’t know what to do cause Rath has decided rather than have a structured approach it’s “choose your own adventure” with ball in hand
It’s **** negligence they’re-signed this guy for 2 years and didn’t bother with Clarkson
They ought to be ashamed taking members money

Take the game on FFS. What’s with all the chipping around? Are we trying to defend our deficit?

Finally. It's just our lack of class that's the difference.

Ben Long’s first three quarters have been terrific.

Sign of a confused side
First half attacked
Second half into shell stagnant dinky kicks
Just no system at all
They are trying to their credit
This side IMHO coached well, drilled to exec under pressure are better than what we are seeing
It’s deplorable coaching
Yes they need to improve skill level but you can train that
What **** are we training????
It’s been going on for 3 years
Last year the muppets decided to let the players “choose their own adventure pre-season” which was a debacle

Hannebery our best midfielder and it's his last game. Battle needs to go also. Too slow, can't kick and can't take a mark.

Sad thing is we are actually in the game and it's just a bad handpass here, a wrong kick there, a simple dropped mark ..... and we just get crucified by a simple error

We definitely need a strong bull fullback and another tall marking option up front and a little class and pace thru the mid field ..... not asking for much at all then

Reckon Campbell has been OK and maybe worth signing him for another year .... though another developing ruck outside of Heath should also be a priority


The Devil makes work for idle hands!!!

Is a frivolous report still a thing?

That is a ridiculous call from the umpire!

What joke reporting Long, plus Sinclair retaliates, kick reversed, Sydney retaliates, nope.
