Re: Footy Fix: Ross Lyon is the AFL's most boring coach once again - and it's suffocating the Saints' season
The losses by small margins masks the issues - we struggle to score I like Harvey but don’t think he’s a forward coach I watched fumbles, overrun the ball, dropped chest marks last night….thats not game plan Seb Ross 9 possessions at HT ….thats not game plan Smashed in tackles ….not game plan Hill (...

Re: Higgins Alir incident
The AFL is F######. I love my football however increasingly getting so disillusioned by the game i.e umpiring rule changes and Gestapo running the game. How good were the good old days. AFL clearly have it in their sights which teams they want in finals. 28-8 free kicks last night absolute joke. Ca...

Re: Match Thread Saints v Port Round 7 2024
Agreed Defensive, called Garcia a second or third year player and was basically rambling I honestly don’t think he GAF Oh come on re Garcia, it was a boo boo - it was a slip of the tongue - Lyon at that time was talking about the youth of the team and when he mentioned Garcia in that context he mea...

Hastie 18 Garcia 18 Wilson 18 Phillipou 19 Owens 20 Windhager 20 Caminiti 20 Wanganeen-Milera 21 That's 35% of the team tonight Port had maybe one player in that bracket Meanwhile, we're playing with one effective midfielder in Steele.

Re: Match thread Saints v Dogs
Full Time ..frees 21 to 8 Eff me. We were second to the ball all night. No surprises there. We were but let’s not let those pathetic excuses for umpires off when it mattered… Dogs constantly caught with ball … Dogs throwing the ball???? Saints forwards had no back apparently it was ok to charge int...

Re: Match thread Saints v Dogs
That's without doubt the worst performance we've offered in over 15 years. There were way worse games under Ratten, Richo and Watters in that time. Lyon’s second worst losing margin though (60 points vs 61) Yep Ole Vort /Caurnsman posting the exact same cut n paste dribble on BF I can recall a 111 ...

Re: Trade King
I would have been doing the opposite to trading King I’d add more King I said 4 years ago Max and Ben - twin towers - one at chf (Max) away from the goals and one at FF (who leads well and is a dead eye (Ben) You need a point of difference to win a premiership 2 x 202cm key forwards with speed and ...

Re: King cleared of ligament damage
Multiple routes to goal. What a novel idea It’s amazing how often clubs become over reliant on one man as the main target. Makes you predictable and easy to counter. It needs constant vigilance. I agree Think it takes pressure off King too - we need to get to a stage where his success in a game is ...

Re: Arie SCHOENMAKER
Sharman isn’t ordinary he’s just being asked to be an everywhere man atm and that’s a tough gig
Let him settle as a forward and he’ll do fine

Re: Garcia. Great Debut
Does Garcia take Butler spot?
Become that hard small pressure forward who can also in future spend bursts through the midfield??
He’s got that aggression you need and yesterday Giants walked it out of our F50 with ease….

Re: Trade King
Nothing like an over reaction. Glad some are not on match committee or head of football 74 games and Ave just under 2 goals per game in a team which has made finals once in previous 4 season. Give it some context: Tom Hawkins first 60 games averaged 1.3 goals per game Jack Riewoldt first 68 games a...

Re: Trade King
Doesn’t need to be traded Needs a rocket His effort and body language is unacceptable He was getting flogged by Taylor for 10 minutes Then lucky for him Taylor was subbed out, instead of stepping up and taking advantage of that he was limp as an old lettuce leaf Don’t care about goals - just effort...

Re: Trade King
When Plugger left, 3 years later we made a grand final. Just saying. No flags tho Just sayin Swans got some though.. How many did they get with Plugger? My point is that if he left for the right price, it’s not the end of the world and could work in our favour. My inclination is to keep him at this...

Our back end draw looks better …8/9 at Marvel ??
Just have to stay close …3-4 by Rd 7 would take that

Re: Trade King
Yep I’d play him high and Caminiti and Hayes/Marshall deep I agree Trade talk is just dumb Check out how we turned it over and brought the ball forward for 3qtrs Dumb? He is unquestionably talented. At worst he will become Joe Daniher who is a frustrating gun at best he could be the dominant forwar...

Re: Garcia. Great Debut
Again… acknowledging that this isn’t an apples to apples comparison, this is why I hate persevering with out of form players or building the fitness of senior players in the seniors. Absolutely should I have started ahead of Butler and was worth dropping Jones even for him to start as sub as both h...

Re: In Garcia, Windhager Out Hastie Jones

Being rested ahead of 5 day break for Dogs (he took a heavy hit late) Or 2. He’s simply not doing en...
