disposals by a lot of players isn't helping.......a guy is 6`8`` and you aim at his toes......ffs

deep down we know we aren`t going to win every game......but to see them fight it out is pleasing to watch , cant stand it when teams just roll over...and the kids are learning to play with the big boys which takes time

I think gws are by far the better of those sides..suns have Blighty behind the scenes and I think badly managed where by gws have had a lot more brains behind that club and have picked up better older guys to help guide the young ones and maybe better draft picks when they were setting up the club .

yes so right ..young kids playing well in both afl and vfl sides can only mean good things

omg were inventing ways to lose

stupid handballs ...kick the f@#king thing

bloody over umpired again........surely they must have this replayed to them at training

our kicks into forward line are still going over the players heads ....need to lower those kicks and we would have more scores on the board

discussions on here are pretty good..we all would like to see the side succeed but know it will take time ...players will come and go to get the right fit and to be honest if any of us were better than keypunch jockeys we`d be down the club going through interviews to get a coaching job......a tough...

We need to have scouts all across the country looking for lunatics,

hasn`t Peake gone back to Geelong.......and was he around there when they were getting their premiership sides together?

I seem to remember an ex premiership coach on SEN say there not much to game plans....it still gets down to see ball get ball kick ball and out score the other team

Do we? I hope you're right, because the news from the club sounds confused at best. We were going to have an elite junior development academy like Arsenal. What happened to that? The Academy is there, they are still trying to work out how to actually develop players who can't do it naturally. Good ...

generally I think all games are over umpired

1st game of the year , against a team that is on the way up while we are down and clearly have players who need game time and with a lack of poise and skill...this will come but on the upside was that they dug deep and had a go all day..i think we tackled much better but this means we were chasing r...

theres about 5 players not doing much who could be consider lucky to be there

Shaw on Saad.......both not doing much ....but much needs to done further up the field.......smalls are never near to roo to pick up crumbs and we don't kick to anyone else if roo is around

I`m afraid it wont be many unless there are upsets....you cannot bank on beating gws or the suns even the dogs are on the way up...they have recruited well and their young guys have played around 50 - 70 games now while our guys are not even near that mark our exp. players are or will start to slow ...

we kept clint jones for years and still have Gilbert and yet you carry on about a left foot............and the same could be said for the rest of the team......they ALL have to use both feet

why not see how he goes next season......too early to be putting the cart before the horse......many things can happen between now and the end of the season and just because some think of him a star player at our club does that mean he would fit in at others....he is not a Goddard who makes plays fr...

great to have him back he will give his all , even the doubters on here will not hinder him and even if he doesn`t find the form needed he will still be putting pressure on whoever is in his possie which is what we need in most areas at the saints, players play better when they know theres another o...

he has only missed this season....was outed at the tail end of 2013.........why not unlike a lot of kids he knows what to he has to do..can possible play every game and if he comes cheap leaves more room for other higher priced guys

like most of our young guys he needs more games into him and another pre season under his belt also he isn't costing us a fortune so give the kid a go

I remember the grand stand at Moorabbin when we scored the people sitting there would make noise it was feared by the other teams and loved by ours....but oh don't make a noise at Eithad...Christ the people in front of us didn`t make one bit of noise through the whole game....ffs get a live...this i...

When Roo started on the wing and moved around to defence we looked so much better with the guys in the forward line having to work better for a kick instead of the predictable ..kick it to Roo who is always dealing with 2 or 3 guys on him. IMO while he is one of the best forwards around it kills us ...

do our skills coach have any skills to pass on its either over heads or too short, up too high to someone under the pump also poor defence trying to mark instead of spoil ..just so many poor decisions.
