Match winners?

Post: # 1687361Post Bruce G McAbee »

Seriously, who are our match winners, who on our list can rip an opposition apart with a burst of brilliance. I can't find one.


Think of me long enough to make a memory.

Actually: i agree. Nobody really.

Potentially : Gresham, Billings, Long. I would say these three have the potential for the most scoreboard damage from few touches, either through scoring or setting up play.

These 3 have shown the potential to be very damaging but only when we're on top. At the moment, we have nobody who can actually or potentially really turn a game and inspire the rest of the team to stop and reverse opposition momentum.

More important than that are players like Ross and Sinclair who can open up the play through and away from congestion.

Match winner types are not so important at the moment. Even Robbie Gray couldn't do enough to make us a real contender

Billings got 5 against the Blues but remember the Blues are airheads
and JB got lucky and usually misses all of those. Once in a blue moon.

Gresh can kick freakish goals but...is he a Rioli type who can turn a game? Too early to tell
and besides, anything he does will generally be undone by his Gumby team-mates who are brilliant at
panic and despair but little else


A real Sainter will pledge allegiance to the ❤🤍🖤 and despise the Pies, the Blues, and the Injectors.
