The game is there for us to prove we are the real deal. We can stand & fight or we fold like last year, lets see what the new coaching staff are made of. The Crows have all the momentum but this is our moment to shine . Go Sainers!!

f*** me Longer is playing the role and doing it well.
Is his role to not get a kick and lose the hit outs?
He's doing better than Gresh, Bruce and Billings. Juat to name 3.. open your eyes
Longer is s***

Goal kicking killing us, who would have thought it was important, only been a major issue the last 2 years :roll:

Yep, this second half will show whether we’re pretenders or the real deal. The Crows were embarrassed by North two weeks ago on the same ground, we should beat them.

Seems silly to criticise Billy longer - he is certainly not the reason we are behind. The main reason is that they made the most of their opportunities and we didn't (until the last ten minutes when they dominated but we scored). Our problem is that we are down one player. Jack Steele needs to "mind" Rory Sloane, let him get the ball and bring him hard to the ground about six times. We need to push Dean Kent into the centre for added hardness. We can't do much about their captain, he's just too good a player.

I absolutely criticise his selection.

We've shown decent form using a particular strategy, which relies on contested marking (down the line) or at worst 50/50 and a stoppage. It's basically been buying an easy 'get out' of D50.

Selecting a player that notoriously cannot contest in the air has hurt us badly.

We're still using the kick down the line - buts it's coming back with interest because there's zero aerial contest.

On cue Billy! Contested Mark down the line, results in easy inside 50.

He's not even close. There are a dozen players on the ground with more marks. Misguided BS
