Re: Match Thread Saints v Freo Round 1 2023

Anyone know who played on Bradshaw in the last? 23 touches to 3/4 times, coming off 7 in the third… had 10 in the second as they looked to get on top… blanketed in the last with just 2 kicks and a handball. Pbly the difference between a win and a loss. That's actually a great observation. I kept wo...

Re: Match Thread Saints v Freo Round 1 2023

I thought Freo were very poor. We were better and deserved the win. And we can get much better than that. Freo's ball movement will have them going nowhere. Playing 2018 footy. Was that them or us though? I feel like we strangled there movement to a degree. Serong and Broadie both stepped up a bit ...

Re: Match Thread Saints v Freo Round 1 2023

Absolutely stoked. So sick of people talking about our list. Bring that effort, we'll beat most side.

Finally get to see some accountable football! Two way running!

To blame our list for the past five years is such a cop out. So glad to see actual effort.

Let's go!!!

Re: Why Saints Must Finish Bottom 4 2023

No club should hope to finish bottom four. Those days are dead. We need to become a club people want to play for. Geelong didn't pick up players like Bruhn and co by being bottom four. Same goes with Richmond and Hopper and Taranto.

Ross made these comments earlier in the week. I was glad to hear it.

Re: Cornes throws more shade on the Saints

Few years ago this muppet was saying the game had gone passed Patrick Cripps. He's just a troll. We can't win either way with some of these morons. Under Ratten everybody was saying we were a club that was drifting. Then we try to do something and they don't like that either. There are some people i...

Okay, that's interesting in regards to Van Es. Certainly is a large unit. Hopefully we get a good look at him during the practice matches.

Thanks for the info everyone. Much appreciated.

Hi everyone,

Hope you're all doing well. Thanks for these updates. Bloody great stuff.

Has anyone seen much of Van Es yet? Keen to hear how he's progressing, given our neverending need for another key back.

Happy new year to you all

Re: Ross Lyon?

We have a B grade list. Workmanlike. 1 elite player in Steele I doubt any coach takes us to finals in the first year.

Re: Ross Lyon?

Not completely sold on Ross' return but one thing he will bring is some defined clarity for a lot of our players. We've got so many blokes who don't even know where their best position is yet. Clark, Coffield, Sharman, Billings, Hill, Gresham. They'll all benefit from a coach who can give them some ...

That was a shambolic press conference. So many mixed messages. Lethlean saying our list should be achieving more but Gags saying recently that we don't have the cattle. And why would they make Ratts virtually reapply for the job this week when he was already coach? An absolute mess. Lethlean and Bas...

Yep, ludicrous that we're not putting ourselves forward for this. Fringe player or not, Bowes and Pick 7 for Long and a later pick is solid gold trading.

Fuming.

Re: Jason Horne-Francis

It's definitely nuffy season but I do find it strange that Horne-Francis hasn't nominated the Crows or Port yet. Also, the fact we're letting Hunter go while still under contract is pretty bizarre. Something is afoot, though it could just be our famous incompetence.

The side we put out last night wasn't 45 points worse than Geelong's. I'm not buying any talk that says they had a classier team playing last night. This comes down to leadership, pure and simple. As soon as any side begins shifting out defence from side to side, we leak goals like a sieve. Not enou...
