Kosi and Dawson will return and duds Lynch and Baker out is a huge difference, as is playing at home.

A decent chance I reckon.

Poor form to refer to Tom Lynch and Stevie Baker as "duds", IMO.

Really poor form :roll: :roll:

Well I want to win every game we play and if only half of that happens we'll be playing finals.

So, yeah.

Of course we can beat north, only last week everyone was saying that
we can beat collingwood.
Its amazing how opinions change after a couple of loses.
Opinions on this site are as bad as the media's.
In saying that i still seem to read them both.

Yes I do.

We won't win the flag, I've known that for months now.

Maybe we can win a final.

Better than 9th and playing zero finals. I've seen plenty of years where we play zero finals.

Whatever your opinion is on their ability, it POOR form to spraying this garbage anywhere as a St.Kilda supporter.

Yes bad form to refer to Saints players as "duds" :?: Baker is simply too old to be an elite defender/tagger and Lynch needs more time to improve

Unless RL does something about the woeful work around the stoppages, we won't be going to much further.

I reckon we put the cue in the rack and go home for the season and try and reload...

We have no hope of competing for a flag

We need to see what Walsh has to offer. Give him a go next week It's not like it's going to be the difference between winning and losing.

Not so fast. All we need is six outbreaks of gastro and we will be home!

The trouble is that the Collingwood match was a stering effort with plenty of effort applied to game categories that Collingwood generally dominate.

Today, what happened? They lost nearly every possible game category and were 15 shots behind. This could easily have been a 60 point loss. Not happy about that given we are 3 games from finals and effort is again declining or we are playing injured players. The latter should not happen leading up to finals or we are just making up the numbers.

Lets not do a Carlton for the last 2 years and get belted first up. To me that's worse than not getting there in the first place.


Midfield clearances and clear winners are needed to make an effective forward line.

You need to protect the ball handler to increase posession efficiency

We have been gone for quite some time.


Lance or James??

There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say, "Enough is enough." For me, that time is now. I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in <redacted>.

The toll this has taken on my family, and my work for <redacted>and on me leads me to where I am today – finished with this nonsense. (Oops just got a spontaneous errection <unredacted>)
