saints v swans match thread

[matrix]

that'll do

[gringo]

Slaughtered by the umps as usual but going well.

Now that is clearly a joke. Certainly no where near slaughtered. Got a good run I reckon and we also played very well. Will be tough in the heat to keep going.

One where a swan slipped over and got a free yet Dal got hit high and nothing. Swan dump players after every mark or run into them hard and nothing.

Roberton,
leadership material!

[mad saint guy]

Steven, Roo, Blake all awesome. Newnes, Curren and Saunders did some good things. Our rucks move like 35 year olds and handle the footy like 10 year olds.

[FQF]

Positive start. The team is not nearly as bad as many people think. We've been able to compete with the best in most games this year, and often get blown away for one period. That will remedy itself with fitness and experience.

Special mention to Curren.

Say what you will, but this kid will make it.
4 contested possessions so far.

[WinnersOnly]

McEvoy has to be he slowest player in the AFL he has taken the mantle from Sandilands ... & it seems Hickey isn't much better !

You are the definition of a one-eyed supporter!

I reckon there were 2 throws leading up to Jack's goal. Happy with the umps so far.

Go Saints!!

[Jacks Back]

Great quarter boys!!!

Keep up the good effort!!

Newnes playing well.

We say this every week then get done by 100 points.

Our two ruckmen are crap, slow and have no idea. What about picking up a tall mobile ruckman for once saints.

And the swans forum wouldnt be saying the same. Good umpiring at the moment.

[whiskers3614]

Keep some of Blake's DNA to graft onto younger players coming through!

[Bluthy]

Macca does look slow. Hickey doing some nice tap work. Steven - rivalling Rooey for best player at the club now. Great pressure - small ground suiting them- need to keep it up

[gringo]

Curren, Jack, Armo, Montagna all very good. Ross looks good. Roberton is a gun.

[Bluthy]

Curren!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[sunsaint]

early days but I am happy with that first quarter - SW has the guys up and running with contested play on footy
6-0 contested marks thats impressive

[gringo]

Curren, the bun got a sausage roll.

[St. Luke]

Sensational effort by the boys! I thought this would be a daunting game to watch, but so far I'm loving it!!

[Bluthy]

Me likey!!!! ME likey.......!!!!!! MINCHY!!

[gringo]

Minchingtonnnnnnnnnn!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Two beauties off the rookie list just need the shentonator now.

[bigcarl]

good so far but surely it cant last

considering we won contested marks 6-0 1st quarter im not sure what game you are watching

courtesy of heavy work by armo
27-23

I like how they talk about Minchy as a forward that can go thru the middle. Something that milera, tdl, and saad can't di
