Re: Match Thread Saints v Crows Round 6 2019
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!!

Re: Match Thread Saints v Crows Round 6 2019
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.

Re: Match Thread Saints v Crows Round 6 2019
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.

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.

Have we ever, ever had a worse quarter for stoppages?

Re: Match Thread Saints v Crows Round 6 2019
I reckon it shows the value of Marshall pushing forward to contest in the fwd 50 and how nuch we miss him against a genuine tall defence .
Nee!
