Gets the ball a lot but just kicks too high or just doesn't look where he's kicking.

Not sure where he is at to be honest, down at Lonnie against the Hawks just seemed to sulk a lot if the ball wasn't kicked to him

Savage and Ross both just bomb it.

I’m 100% with you, has been hopeless for at least the last month. Has looked very lazy or not trying.

Seb Ross may statistically be the least successful captain of the least successful sporting club in the history of the free world, or perhaps second to the Washington Generals.

Seb, is really overrated, I think he has really gone backwards in this season and towards the end of last season. His defensive work is really poor, he guards space a lot, second efforts aren't great and doesn't win his own ball consistently like he used to. I know Jack Steven wasn't great tonight either but I thought he should have been made Captain while Geary is out.

Someone had to be given a attacking strategy, but if there is no one in forward line, kick it high and wait. Lol


This is a team game and there is no room for individuals who think they are above walking through the fire.

Agree, his disposal is poor. He can get the ball but bombs it. Hard to say how he would go in a better side. He banged a few long ones into the forward line but the Swans were well organised and just picked him off.

I’m thinking he drank too much of his own bath water, after winning the B&F last year.

Fair comparison. Except he’s not nearly as good a runner.

He’s that classic midfielder who can get as much of the pill as he likes, because the opposition are happy for him to do so because he can’t hurt them when he has it.


Until we have an administration that demands success and a playing group that bleeds for the guernsey, St. Kilda will just be a sh*tty football club.

Difference is Mav is s*** at footy. Full stop.

Seb won a b and f. So he can play.
He just looks half assed.

Mav tries. He's just no good.

Big difference.

But agree. If Seb is injured he shouldn't play.

If he isn't trying. Then we have a big problem with the coach.

Well, I think we all know we have a big problem with our coach!!!!!

Nearly as a big a problem you're gonna have with some if you keep taking cheap shots!!!!!

Seb in the picture below doesn't want to put his body on the line.

https://s.afl.com.au/staticfile/Samples ... dscape.jpg

Seb gets lots of fantasy points, but I saw far too many games where he didn't go hard or commit to contests. He doesn't hurt himself or the opposition. It's just bruise free footy and it needs to be coached out of the player. That's sometimes why he and Billings get rid of it too early. When you try and take the footy 'away' from your body I call that playing scared.

I reckon the more Seb touches the ball, the worse we get.

He should be a gun stopper in the middle, but unfortunately he's being played as a number 1 on-baller. The opposition want him getting it, they facilitate it, as it hinders us badly.

True. Much like our opposition this year decided that they'd allow Geary to become an absolute ball magnet.
