There is a reason why we have won 27 wooden spoons, tune in to Saints games weekly, yearly if you are unsure why. Is there any truth in the rumour some want Linton Street's suburb name changed to Losersville. :lol: :lol: In the AFL era we have two wooden spoons. And we won’t be adding to that any t...

Our form against Port Adelaide however, is particularly concerning.

1 win from our last 13. Eight of which we've led in the final term, including the last three.

6 wins from our last 30.

Perfect opportunity for all selected to show a bit of heart and effort.

King, Wood, Dow, Webster, Paton, Hayes, Clark, Crouch and Henry all becoming available over the next few weeks will create fierce competition for spots.

Those in the team have tonight to prove their worth.

We do not play a home game on a weekend until Round 8. Meaning most children and elderly are unable to attend a game until May. It's ridiculous fixturing. By Friday night we'll have played more away games in Adelaide than home games at Docklands. The club was always going to be up against it to get ...

Based on the bizarre theory in the OP, West Coast are as good as, if not better, than Brisbane.

Therefore, we are also as good as Brisbane.

So we've beaten the reigning premiers, and we're equal to the runners up. Why is everyone so angry?

There would've been lucky to be 1,000 Saints fans left at the final siren.

Our first 35 minutes of footy have been deplorable the last three weeks. vs Richmond - 0.4 to 4.1 vs GWS - 1.3 to 5.4 vs WB - 1.0 to 7.2 2.7.19 to 16.7.103 Several players, including Sinclair, Wilkie, Battle, Stocker, Sharman, Higgins, Membrey & Owens are running at less than half of their avera...

Biggest loss under Ross Lyon is 61pts vs Carlton in Round 7, 2010.

We lost the next week too, then went on to lose just 3 of our next 16 on our way to a Grand FInal.

Seems it wasn't so hard to come back from.

44 turnovers in two quarters. But it’s the coach’s fault. Right.

Must win 3 of the next 5. Should win 4.

Anything less than 5-5 and we're very unlikely to feature in September.

Interesting to see Butters let off for an identical incident to that of Windhager.

Just saying

Four disposals, 2 goals.

Butler had ONE disposal. One.

Two goals, or even two misses, would’ve been rather handy this afternoon.

Butler has to go. Been poor for two years.

Get Collard in. And leave him in.

I also think it’s fkn disgusting to debut players as Subs Probably the biggest moment in their lives, they get at best a quarter. I can tell you, your first senior game, the first half an hour is a blur, you legs go heavy and your out of breath the whole time - it’s pretty normal to take a quarter ...

He was very good in rounds 1 & 2. Less so in rounds 3 & 4, but still a critical part of our structure.

Good to see we learnt from last week's horrendous conversion of 9.13 by kicking 9.13 this week.

And don't forget the 9.14 kicked in Round 1.

Can't win Grand Finals kicking 9.14. Actually, what'd we kick in 2009? That's right, 9.14.

If Hastie had done enough to be selected, he needs to start. You can't pick a kid, give him 35 minutes of footy in two weeks and then drop him.

Butler, Caminiti out.

Collard, Windhager in.

Jones sub. Hastie starting 22.

Hill might be touch and go off a six day break and two flights.

Completely agree.

Dumb joggers. That’s all they are.

Honestly I don’t know what the plan is here by the brains trust. I’ve watched it a few times. Just don’t see how he gets off. Take the week and move on. Save the appeal for when we really need it eg. finals. This could be double edged in my mind We have nothing to lose, it's not going from 1 to 2 w...

Why do they even bother commenting on umpiring mistakes?

It's like the Reserve Bank commenting on inflation.

We lost a game of footy and some people think the finger needs to be pointed at Mattaes instead of the senior players I'd be starting threads on Crouch, Hill and Mason Wood before people criticise a 2nd year player. Spot on. Can you imagine the uproar from the same posters if our top ten draft pick...

The f…ing score 68.

It haunts us.

We should win.

Geelong will be bottom 6 this year.

Try this one then...

As much as I think what Webster did deserved a significant suspension, it is comical that a player walked free from a similar act just five games ago. There will be similar hits during the 2024 season, and you can be sure that they won't result in 7 week suspensions. Jimmy stupidly put himself in th...
