Re: Match Thread Saints v Giants Round 5 2024

Against Bombers, multiple unforced errors. Lose by 4 points

Against GWS, multiple unforced errors. Lose by one point.


Hill, Steele, and Marshall were awesome. Garcia is a keeper.

Re: Match Thread Saints v Giants Round 5 2024

Appalling miss by Caminiti. That kind of stuff, when you're struggling to stay in the game, is demoralising

Marshall must be pretty sore. The coach hinted last week that he'll need a rest soon. I wonder if he's the forced change

Re: Can we?

Looking at that GWS line-up. Wow, it's a seriously talented team. They have more run than us, better clearance players, and a key forward who is a beast. Taylor at fullback is going to make it very hard for King, and Greene will provide a massive headache, as usual. I'd be inclined to play Stocker o...

He's fumbling below his knees at the moment and snatching at the ball. I'm confident he'll turn it around.

Re: North - AFL fiddling

Also, the key position players they've brought in from other clubs in recent years have been, for the most part, plodders.

Re: North - AFL fiddling

North did the the old 'top up' method when they picked up Dal Santo and a few others in the hope it would get them the cup. Then they coughed up too much for Stephenson, who has turned out to be a massive bust. Along the way, they took their eye off the long term during the 2014 to 2019 period and t...

Re: Cooked

Lyon sees this team as a work in progress, and rightly so. He inherited a team that was way down the pecking order in relation to contention with a worrying lack of emerging talent. The sins of the past (recruitment) had left him with a lopsided list and the focus has shifted to bringing in young ta...

Re: Isaac Keeler

What's noticeable about him is his light frame. He played on Sam Weideman and Weideman looked like Tom Hawkins compared to Keeler. Although the same height, Keeler could make no physical impact with his one on one contests. He simply couldn't move Weideman off the ball and Weideman is not known for ...

So......not having near your best team on the park is absolutely no excuse? Hmmm Okay, so how many test matches would the late 1990s/early 2000s Australian test team have won without McGrath and Warne?. That's only two players, right? Would still have dominated, right?

Re: Cooked

We've not had our best team in. If we had, there'd be a strong chance we'd be 3 - 0 right now. Have to look at everything in context and keep an eye on the future. Building a team capable of contending is what it's about. We had 7 youngsters out there yesterday Windhager 20 Hastie 18 Wilson 18 Owens...

Re: Changes for tge Richmond at Gather Round.

We're running out of options. Replacing Windhager when we already have Dow, Henry, Crouch, and Clark out is near impossible. It's really out of Collard and Garcia. Hotton's form has been poor. The only other youngster who's played well is McClennan, but he's the wrong position. Schoenmaker did very ...

Re: Match thread. Saints V Bombers

It's simple. Kick goals when you're on top and you demoralise your opponents. Kick behinds and you energise them, and demoralise yourselves in the process. We should have been 7 goals up half way through the 2nd quarter. Instead, we were one goal up. At that point I knew we'd struggle to win. The te...

Re: Bonner

He completely lost his nerve after quarter time. Started ignoring team mates in space and bombing long. The pressure got to him. We knew he wasn't a physical player, but there were some timid efforts today that I think Ross Lyon will be pointing out.. it's one thing to be able to kick. It's another ...

If you look at players aged 27 and under we have no genuine clearance midfielders. In the next two years we need to select a couple of midfield guns or there'll be no chance of winning the big one any time soon
