Zero goals for a quarter, great.


Think of me long enough to make a memory.

Frustrating quarter. More scoring shots, no reward.

Quarter Time
Freo 3-0-18
Saints 0-4-4

Saints gave it their best but weren't up to it.


The Saints are under review, will it make any difference to the underachievers ?

How can Freo (and Magpies last week) just waltz out of our forward line every f****** time?

No system

Forwards devoid of confidence

Backs not up to it

And Mids watching their opponents rack them up

We are bottom 4

We are bog average
Our backline and half backs are a strength. Our midfield and their delivery inside 5o is our weakness

We’ve had our chances. We have more scoring shots than them.

Those easy marks dropped by King and then Steele (both about 20 metres out) cost us dearly.

Are we the worst skilled team in the league ?
Field kicking is woeful, handballs at the feet, forward who can’t kick set shots.

Can’t see how we win this game
Can’t see how we win may more than half a dozen games this year.
Can’t see how we don’t finish bottom 3.


Life is never more fun than when you're the underdog competing against the giants.

Missy Higgins can't f****** kick for goal (and neither can Gresham).

I can see us losing the first 9 this year.

So frustrating. Can't watch on Kayo anynore. I'll listen to the radio and do some work. Just so disappointed.

Having a crack but our goal kicking is nothing short of pathetic . 3 sets shots from close range all behinds & Gresh should kick those sort of goals that's his bread & butter. Still 3 quarters to go lets hope we hang in there

I’d summarise that quarter as the same utter dogshit output caused by the same utter dogshit skills but with more intensity.

Last time I checked - no skills and no plan on how to attack or defend = 10th on the ladder. If you’re lucky.

We comfortably the least skilled team in the AFL and have no confidence.


Go you red, black & white warriors

Higgins and Gresham are technically bad kicks

Which is why they can’t kick

We need to take our chances, our forwards were disgraceful. King, Butler, Higgins & Membrey all had chances and choked.

We had just as many opportunities as them. We should be level at the very least

If Butler continues like this and the selection committee play him again next week, I’ll want to microwave their heads

I’d agree with that
Scrappy haphazard entry into forward 50 hoping for miracle goals
What is with the exit from defence approach?? Side kick to pocket , they man up , long bomb to wing, ball rebounds in goal
They walk it out from our forward line to wi g with ease???
WTF is with that?? It’s been that way for way too long
