Yeah couldn't have played much worse. Joey I'm afraid has to be moved on you live in fear when he has the ball.

I was there in the eighties too, BM. Have you forgotten the first three rounds of 1985? Three consecutive 100 + losses. As bad as they were today, and they were very ordinary, we have suffered plenty of devastating losses over the journey that make today look like a premiership by comparison. A win is a win is a win. As Yabby would've said, "we were just glad to get the four points". Sums up my feelings exactly. Move along folks. Next week, here we come. Equal 9th, I believe.


I started with nothing and I've got most of it left!

History shows me you are very easily embarrassed.

I have been saying this to myself for the past 2 seasons. His hospital handballs just make me sick. He has been a wonderful servant to the club, but I think the game has passed him by.

Hey White Winmar ... gotta confess that was the worst I've felt as a supporter when we list that 3rd game by 100. But yes this was a disappointing win. Fortunately for us Essendon made some big mistakes which cost them.

And if we beat Melbourne we'll probably be outright 9th! The top 8 teams will stay the top 8 teams and just shufle amongst themselves but for us to be in 9th seems a bit outrageous considering how bad some of our performances have been.

At least in the 80s we were the worst team

Tonight we should have been beaten by a team worse the Fitzroy of 96
They have 12 out suspended
Their ruckman out
The bloke leading the B&F out

The performance was insipid!

Any other AFL team except Brisbane would have beaten Essendon by 15 goals. We we lucky to win, and personally I would have preferred a loss
They deserved it... We deserved to LOSE so the players got what they deserved!!!

If my memory serves me correctly we beat a full strength Bombers last year by over 100 points.

The game today was pathetic considering the standard of the opposition.

Found it extremely hard to watch.

Are you seriously calling stk a good team... Seriously

As soon as they lost Luenberger and Zaharakis they became a VFL team
Gwilt, Dea, Hams, Brown, Ambrose, The full back, The ruckman, a bunch of kids and Kelly and Cooney
Really
They had 4 or 5 blokes that would even make a afl list playing

Well done Saints! Took my son to his first AFL game and it went down to the wire. Nice for him to experience the emotion of a near loss. Pretty awful game but we loved it!

Insipid performance against what is a VFL standard team.

Any other team in the comp would have beaten us by 10 goals plus. Essendon kick straight we lose, at least in the 80's we had a dip.

Richo needs to read the riot act and make a statement at the selection table.

We are miles off being a good team, need some real class in the midfield and another key defender.


A champion team will always beat a team of champions.

What's Goddard proven or shown to be classed as a "big out"?

PEDESTRIAN!!! LAZY!!!! INEPT!!! Diabolical skills. No shepherding. Weak forward defence. A couple of big names need to be dropped lead by Bruce who won't chase, doesn't lead into space and lopes around finger-pointing. Gilbert is a concern every time he gets the ball and so are Montagna and Delaney. Woeful performance. Sadly, we play a stop start boring brand of football. Get some games into young fellas.

I'm having a laugh after a win. It was either that or a hissy fit. But others seem to have that covered.
