So F*** off.

For the Brian Lake apologists...
"The inches we need are everywhere around us. They're in every break in the game. Every minute, every second. On this team we fight for that inch. On this team we tear ourselves and everyone around us to pieces for that inch. We claw with our fingernails for that inch. Because we know when we add up all those inches that's gonna make the f***in' difference between winning and losing! Between living and dying!'

And as Dennis said during commentary, the memo went out a month ago that any off the ball incident like that would be free kicked.
He left his own man to hit Rooey, Rooey was looking the other way and wasnt expecting it as he was running to his position and looking back to the centre.
I agree Thinline he was an idiot. Personally I think he is a bit overrated but I did get shouted down during the week for that opinion

I think he's a gun who let his team down last night by trying to play the man.
Glad he did.

I was constantly cheesed off at the treatment of Roo by Lake. It was stupid behind the play stuff designed to tire Roo out.
When he was pinged for it I felt a sense of justice. It was not a dramatic hit but I felt it made up for the consistent sniping all night.
It cost them dearly though in such a low scoring contest. But fully justified if you roll all the incidents into one.

Saints Footy - Let all others follow.
the dogs played well.
delivery to our forwards was non existant.
they changed their game plan to ours.
often WE couldn't get the ball out of our D 50/ D70.
They took risks and ran through our lines. The changed 100% from when we played them last.
Adelaide and collingwood have modelled themselves on us after hte 1/2 mark of the season.
Now the doggies.
Kudo's to Ross Lyon, its massive compliment that Eade and Malthouse, two of the more experienced coaches in the game are duplicating our rule book.
i expect 1/3 of the clubs to be doing it next year. It will be a challenge for RL to improve. Many coaches have 1 strategy which is the brilliance of lethal whose team was so drilled they could switch from all out defence to all out attack to man on in a matter of a 1 minute.

Thanks for giving us the game chump.
The free your thuggish behaviour gave St Kilda was worth more than 7 points.
