What do you mean ?

Yes but not in front of goals. Because of Higgins, Butler has had to reinvent himself as a defensive forward. With Higgo missing, Butts needs to step up the goal work.

Maybe Rosd should coach soccer.

Danger time. Another goal and we're gone.

This isn't West Coast where we can get 31pts back after half time.

Hes kicked goals this year

In a 38 game season there would be 25 draws (0-0), would win 4 games and still get relegated.

Him and the team are doing a great job at giving the middle finger to the fans. Who wants to watch this s***, especially this style if you aren’t going to win.

I've got a tip for people who are in tipping competitions

Don't look at the ladder when trying to tip St Kilda

FFS... seriously...how the hell are we 6th?

Who wants to watch this rubbish, because it is rubbish.
We play the worst football in the league.
Worst forward line in the competition.
Pathetic.

I am sure that we can see the issues - fixing them requires hard work

Soon v as we stop this bullshyte finals talk the better
After this game I suspect we’ll be able to put that to bed
Gut this list way way too many pretenders
We are a 10-15 side atm that’s where we belong
Hit draft stop trying to take short cut rebuilds it doesn’t work

Butler is doing nothing, not crumbing, not kicking goals, better off subbing him and putting Clark on

Maybe there needs to be a mass communication from the supporters to the club saying we are sick of this low scoring ultra defensive game plan that doesn't win premierships.
I gave Ross the benefit of the doubt when we rehired him, but now, I have a big doubt he can deliver.
