RTB said last yr, after a crappy game, it was a 'mulligan'.
I'm worried he thinks the same about tonight.
Presser- he said 'it's not us' as if it were another mulligan.

It needs to be examined, identified, and fixed

They said Sharman's goal post-siren puts this train wreck at 2nd biggest loss under RTB

Commentator reckons his biggest loss as Saints coach is about 66 pts in 2009 or 2008.

The club should NOT ask us on Twitter/X to vote on the 'Sainter of the Day'.

That's like awarding a prize to a child for just turning up

Many look flat footed and way too reactive.
Sorry to say but Membrey has had his time and Jones should be playing for Sandringham if this team is fair dinkum about improving for the future.

I said last week that Membrey is past his best, you all bagged me

The Dogs aren't even that good- we're making them look top 4

Butler should be the sub.
Garcia, the teenager, did a lot more in limited time.

I've never been a fan of Butler, far too showy and tries all the trick shots

Jamarra out, is great for us.
He's potentially a 3-4 goal guy, and can set up others.

We hold the AFL to a higher standard than they do themselves.

Broadcasters prob told them to find wriggle room to get Charlie off

My changes would be
In: Jones (not as sub), Garcia to bench
Outs: Butler, Sharman (Cooper was good in the Pies game but otherwise ineffective)

It means we lose height but Sharman wasn't giving much presence in the air anyway

Geez...
I would've dropped Butler before Jones.

Only 2 games, small sample size, but
Avg disp 8.5
Turnovers 3.0

His cheeky goal was a silly party trick that worked, but no other team will let him do that again

I'll add to my comments by saying his value in dropping back to take saving marks, which he could be relied upon to do when needed, is still there, but he is being negated by being a bit shorter than most oppo mids who are at least 6-10 cm taller. I still have him as best 23, but eventually he'll be...

Skunk is now one of those guys who has lost too much skill and touch.
Up until the covid era, he could be relied on to have very good games at the rate of 5-6 decent games per 10 games.
His clean touch and skill are gone for good

RTB would be worried about the post match presser, when our PR team warns him he'll get probed by reporters

I don't know how to attach a link... Prior to the game, RTB was talking about Collard. 'I love Lance so much, I let him have my car for 2 months' 😳 RTB recently lost too many demerit points over a 3 yr period so licence suspended for 2 mths. ''He got it cleaned, left it with a full tank" lol J...

Ground balls Awareness, which may get better as he picks up tempo and pressure of AFL Decision making 2 Tigers were about to pounce on a ground ball in our D50.

VERSUS

'Versing' isn't a damn word

It's NOT a game I'll watch again, anytime soon, if ever. A lot of it was rugby union scrums. In a few weeks, 17 teams will work out how to beat our -'scrum' tactic, and we'll get monstered unless we can reinvent our clearance work and be more fluid and free-flowing. Until we find a Lachy Neale and A...

We won the clearances, even though Nankervis is a heaps better tap ruckman than Marshall. Nobody will agree with me, but I thought Jones played a part in that result. He stood his ground in stoppages and made it hard for the Tigers to get the ball out. Yes, he stuffed up in other respects, but he m...

Sportsbet gives us $1.32 or something, Tigers longer odds. Weird.
But if you believe tipsters have any influence on 23 young blokes, I worry for your sanity

Tigers marked out the dimensions of Norwood Oval, on Punt Rd Oval during training, so they could get used to the ground size.

RTB said that's OTT and obsessive.
He said we could play on asphalt or gravel, he doesn't care.

I thought it was a good idea, we should have tried that too.

Anyway

He's on the bench now...
Good chance to be out

He missed one from right in front, another on the run on the right (wrong lol) foot that sprayed wide...
Then delivered a nice kick to a 2 on 1 in Dees favour.
That last one he does 2-3 times a game.
The first fluffs are de riguer for him
