Re: Innovate or perish. Part 2
So Joey seems basically to be saying that our defence and running half backs are pretty good and our midfield moves the ball forward ok, but our forward line is pretty crap. Especially in the absence of quality smalls like Higgins, Butler and Gresham. I agree with all that, but wasn’t that pretty cl...

Re: The guys that sing when we get goals
It sounds like a wonderful idea. Certainly better than having a drink every time we score a goal, which could leave one feeling a little thirsty.

Re: Team Saints V Melbourne
Uninspiring Underwhelming Ryan Byrnes 2 weeks ago worst on ground vs Box Hill Last week just OK vs a woeful Richmond VFL Agree with your first two points but you're missing a key point on Byrnes, the VFL game is on the same day. Byrnes won't play at either level. Extended bench selected to allow pl...

Re: Team Saints V Melbourne
WTF with Bonner keeping his spot and Byrnes coming back?! Sharman at least looks like he will only be an emergency.
Perhaps Byrnes is meant to run with Langdon, although I thought RTB didn’t like doing that sort of thing.

Re: Changes for Dees game
Out: Jones, Collard, Sharman and Paton In: Higgins, Sebby, Skunk and Clark I'd like to see both Lance boy and Coops play another game in the seniors. It's pointless bringing them in for just 1 game ...but we know what will probably happen I’d like to “see” Collard playing in the seniors. In 1.5 gam...

Re: Sack Lyon
I can simplify the above Fremantle used the ball cleanly. They knew where each other were when they had the ball in their hands and they gave it off to them. They had a good system of disposal that any good Club should have Thanks: sorry I did get a bit verbose there. There's something quite defens...

Re: Sack Lyon
The only good thing about last night was our defensive setup continuing to work well, as it has done for a few years now: it started to come good in 2021 and is largely the work of Enright. We are quite capable of containing the scoring of opponents to a level that we could beat if we could actually...

Re: Sack Lyon
I expect he’ll be referred to as “embattled Saints coach, Ross Lyon” by someone in the media this week.
But I reckon he’ll need a few more bad losses before the board will act.

Re: Match Thread - Saints V Freo
Battle has been excellent. Marshall, Windhager and Wilson too. NWM hasn't had one of his better games so far. If he can lift in the last quarter, we might get across the line.
It's nice to come up against a team that blows even more of its chances than we do.

Marshall with more possessions, more marks, more tackles... but its Jackson that is doing the damage .... or at least seems that way Marshall has been good at ground He doesn’t have enough friends Think Dow will be ok It’s all just entry into 50 …there’s no lowering eyes, finding a free it’s all bo...

Re: Match Thread - Saints V Freo
And I'm not sure why the first player to be criticised is Howard. Our main problems tonight do not lie with our defence. Nor our midfield, which is performing unexpectedly well. It's very difficult to defend against a sudden counter attack which comes about from a totally unexpected turnover up forw...

Re: Match Thread - Saints V Freo
New bunch of forwards, same messy structure. Freo are setting up most of their goals from mistakes we make inside or just outside our forward 50. The biggest weakness in our coaching structure is bleedingly obvious tonight. Dow has improved things in the midfield and Windhager is having an excellent...

Re: Match Thread - Saints V Freo
On the basis of what we've seen so far, Freo have better players than us. But there's not a huge amount in it.
