Norfs a chance ?

Post: # 1903403Post mr six o'clock »

Clearly this year the team's full of downhill skiers
So we should be able to beat north next week
However they kicked 5 goals 9 in there 120 odd point loss to the dogs and we only managed 5 goals 3 .
A they a chance ?
What st kilda will turn up next week ?
Me being a glutton for punishment will front up again next week to find out but for huck me dead it's hard work . I thought we could win this week but by half time I pulled the pin and left .
11 goals to 2 in the second half showed I made a wise choice .

I’m actually not upset if we lose tbh
Let’s stop papering over cracks - can see it now....we beat a shyte Nth and headlines “Saints atone for horrible effort last week”
False dawn
Had enough of them
We have 12-15 good players to work with
No talent coming through
1-2 A graders and daylight after that
No match winners
Zero leadership
We are truly in no mans land
Get to the bottom
Get the picks
Eff off did recruiting and bring in the best list managers we can find - not Lethleans mates
We are 5 years away with this list

Our percentage is a massive, whopping 14.8 above Norf’s.
What chance could they possibly have?
We’ll belt ‘em.
By 17.

Shame and pride will kick in.

The Fuhrer’s miracle weapons will save us.


You're quite brilliant Shane, yeah..terrific!

The way the year is going I hope we completely bottom out and finish in the bottom 4. At least then that Ratten and the club will realise they have to go back to basics and stop trading away draft picks on dog average footballers like Hill & Higgins. Then they must get our draft picks right before we can expect anything else to change.

From a list management perspective the club has had an absolute mare this season! Seeing as how we took so many cast offs we will now have a miriad of players that should be delisted at seasons end eg Hunter,, Wood,, Frawley, plus Kent, Dunstan, Alabakis, Clavarino. Thats 6 senior list spots without trying, so as I have been suggesting the club needs to attack this upcoming mid season draft like their future depends on it, because it does!

We'll beat them by 6 goals, but it even if we won by 20 it will me meaningless,.
What is incredible is that we have got to a point in the season already, where we have lost so much faith in the tea, club and administration, that it literally doesn't matter what happens next week, it will still feel hollow and pointless.

Matches against cellar dwellers are meaningless

North will beat us as we are mentally week as a team at the moment.
We are no where near the being a good team with the players we have recruited who some are soft as Marshmellows looking for the easy kick running around like an under 12s.
As a long suffering saints support i am just over it.
My guess there is internal issues at the club which i am sure will surface before the end of the season..
We need a thorough look at our assistant coaches and footy dept .
A dead fish always start going rotten from the head first.
BOOM BOOM
North to win by 32 points.
