He’s lost the players. It shows. Sincs was interviewed by Saints TV on youtube. He looked stunned, just trotted out the same empty phrases that we've heard before. Steele said the same thing after Doggies game. Sincs repeated himself twice as if to reinforce in his own mind, as he has lost the plot...

I really shouldn't watch these pressers, I keep expecting answers but get nothing. The biggest cop out was injuries. Especially after the club went to lengths to broadcast a 2 man injury list. Even a fully fit Butler and Crouch do not make the difference in today's side (Butler 1 goal at VFL level)....

5. King
4. Henry
3. Stocker
2. Higgins
1. NWM

Hard to find votes. Steele and Sinclair had OK individual performances but let the side down as leaders.

Dropping players isn't the answer. The dual narrative is out the window. If I was coach, i'd pick a team that's a good mix of old and young, pair up players with mentors, develop their games real time on the field. Treat the AFL side like a senior development side. Tell the media, fans, members that...

After the smoke has settled.

King 3 goals and competitive up and down the ground - tick.
NWM back in reasonable form - tick
Henry playing well looking like a good midfield option - tick
No injuries - tick
Sandy win and Crouch, Butler, Clark all available - tick

Marshall is no good against Gawn. Same for Briggs and Witts.

Wow your faith in Lyon is so blinding you are just going for personal attacks on our players, including our captain who was actually one of our better players today (not that its saying much) before ever putting and once of blame for the teams performance on the coaches shoulder's. Steele's probabl...

Somehow equating our on field performance with the name change is absolute rubbish.

The more stuff that stinks, the higher up the s***.

What happened to the team fighting for top 4 last year? Even with the 2nd half of the year fadeout we still managed to finish 6th before finals.

Can't blame injuries.
Can't blame players who left/retired.

No player will want to come to us unless it's for bags of cash.

Like the old days when we were a retirement facility for ex Carlton players.

Play the kids Who's going to lead them? Exactly We are constantly rudderless...zero leadership and in the case of Steele today you just can't have a Captain' sooking it up. Can't blame just the captain. Wood has been nowhere. Ross the same. Sinclair has not been setting any standards on the field. ...

How many goals would we have kicked if Lever played?

Who's going to lead them?

I'd like to expect some effort, leadership, and pride in the game.

Sinclair not far behind in the low effort stakes.

The kick was for King who didn't fly. Should have brought it to ground and Collard crumb and goal.

Steele does not look interested.

Credit to match day coaching to keep us in it. Need to turn it up and kick some goals before 3QT

Only watched the last 5 minutes but Clark looks good in the stoppages.

Bitching is all we've got!

Hotton not even on the stat sheet.

Only 10 goals from sandy players out of 15 noted.

If one player is underperforming, it's individual. When a team puts in this much of a stinker, it's clearly coaching. You’re a simpleton mate Get a new tune cause all you do is bash the coach Tell us how it’s coaching when players can’t hit a target 20mtrs away?? **** me it’s hard work … Wouldn't n...

For those who think coaching is just selection, gameplan, and match day tactics I've got news for you.

If one player is underperforming, it's individual. When a team puts in this much of a stinker, it's clearly coaching.
