Re: Saints v Blues game day thread
Interesting, Bruce and his opponent lose the ball in the sun, but there's no talk about how we need to close the roof.
Think of me long enough to make a memory.

Re: Saints v Blues game day thread
We won the toss and kicked the wrong way. The low sun in the last qtr may be bad for our forwards to mark.

Re: Saints v Blues game day thread
useless umps is okay if they're consistent in letting them go. fifty metre penalties are a blight on the game. missed some for both teams.

Re: Saints v Blues game day thread
It’s not always easy to get more of the ball as a small forward, the GP wouldn’t be to direct much footy through small forwards.
Thing is, you don’t count possessions as a small forward, you make your possessions count!

Curiosity of the day.
Bloke in our cheer squad waving the massive tricolour flag
Is wearing a Port Adelaide cheersquad vest.
Must really hate Carlton.
Or our membership team are doing a truly ripping job ....

It does, just not over the 90% of the playing field.

Re: Saints v Blues game day thread
Where is our forward pressure? Blues taking it out far too easy. Lonie and Long need to be front and centre more.
Stuv is a liability at the moment. May have more impact once players tire more.

Re: Saints v Blues game day thread
Why do we miss easy goals?
Got to stop directing the ball through Bruce v Casboult
Casboult has got him in the air comfortably and Bruce is making him look like Glen Jakovich

Re: Saints v Blues game day thread
Membreys miss will probably be match losing
You cannot miss that as an AFL Forward... a 12yo would kick that 8/10 times
Membrey has duffed three important shots
