Re: One of the worst umpiring displays I have ever seen

Just finished the third quarter and the umpiring has been perfectly fine except for the one shocker for Dunstan not getting in the back. So I’m expecting to see a free for all in the last to make this “one of the worst umpiring displays ever”! And anyone saying Mundy was spun 720 degrees is just fl...

Re: Eleni Umpiring Saints v Freo

I cannot believe she is in the best, most qualified umpires in the country. The AFL needs to take a serious look at how they recruit, develop and train their umpires. Umpiring is a joke at a junior level, and it doesn’t improve upwards. The AFL needs to invest in umpires at a junior level to develop...

Re: Hunter C

Hunter is already one of our best ball users.

Adelaide identified that and put alot of work into him. Which is a compliment.

Once we get some more silk into the team he’ll be better as he’ll be able to get off the chain more as the attention won’t be largely on him.

Re: Ratts media persona

I’ve done a couple of coaching courses this season, one at the Saints, and one with the Pies.

Out of all the assistants Ratts was by far the best communicator.

He made me want to pull the boots back on.

Re: 46 inside 50’s vs Geelong AND Footscray!

...BTW, Ratten said in his presser that he stepped away from forwards coaching for the week and let the Skro do that job and Skro "will keep the job now!" because we got 100+ for the first time this year haha Imo I reckon he said that because he’s a good bloke and didn’t want to pot Richo...

Re: If Scott ends up as coach?...

Ratts is the best candidate available. It’s only the stigma that AFL has with a failed coach that is why he’s not recognised as that. I really hope that it’s Ratts job to lose. He’s been at the club all year, if we let him get away, and end up with Scott, we’re dead in the water. The next coach we s...

We went in with intent, rather than going in defensively.
That quote is worthy of its own thread.

This imo is the main difference. Richo as a coach was too defensive in attack. Mr. Grogan is spot on.

Re: If Scott ends up as coach?...

Why would anyone find amusement in the fact that rusted on supporters would feel the need to 'stop supporting' to get a message across? To be honest, it's akin to people cracking the sads about how Game of Thrones ended. This program is more like East Enders, it’s long running and depressing. I’m p...

If Scott ends up as coach?...

...I for one will be disillusioned with the club and will most probably walk away, not renewing my membership again.

It will feel like they think we’re fools, and despite what they have said recently, it will appear that Lethlean had given his mate a job months ago.

Surely Harvey can’t be coach, we all know him so well as a coach we can make that call. He is far too quite, when what we need is a Alan Killigrew style hot gospeller. Don’t matter if he’s good an astute mind for the game, or whether is is a respected figure. He can’t go off his nut (well not that ...

There’s been a handful of players that Cho continues to pick that imo regularly under perform. He must see something in them that I don’t.
