Don't worry. Just pre season. Remember 09?
We are just saving ourselves for September action.
No point peaking too soon.
No flags awarded in March.
Have faith in Richo. Greatest coach in AFL history.
Don't worry about his 33% win loss record. Means nothing.

The Milky Bar Kid is tough and strong, the Milky Bar Kid just can't go wrong..........I'd forgotten about the 33% winning record and the fact that he'd made over 20 unsuccessful applications to coach other clubs. Even we rejected him twice, before taking on the bloke we didn't want in the first place. Outstanding. Pleasing. Positive.

"Listen, an argument isn't just the automatic gainsaying of anything the other person says, it's a series of statements designed to support a particular conclusion."
"No, it isn't."
"Oh, I've had enough of this."
"No you haven't"
"Oh shut up."

We've got the wind this 2nd qtr although a few players need to lift


As ex-president Peter Summers said:

Our defence was poor, we over hand balled and our forwards can't hold marks. I am beginning to feel we are overestimating our abilities.

The players below that other sides realise no hurt factor will take us to the bottom 6
Hickey
Dunstan
Newnes
Bruce

Longer
Steel?

Most of these players are highly rated by the club but they will not take you up the ladder

Kick the ball into our forward line for no result time after time after time.
I'm sorry, this team is poorly coached. Our skill level hasn't imorived over the last few years.

Worse than last week if that's possible. Many teams have gone well past us since 2016

Thought we were going to be mediocre this year. Looks like I might have overestimated us.

Saints look so bad. So many players underperforming and literally none of them can kick

Unfortunately I found Paul Roo’s comment rather funny “The positive for St Kilda is its obvious what they need to improve on”

Another forward entry by us to the advantage of Melbourne. Oh wait we kicked a goal, yeah.

A lot of worrying signs.
Forward line is not working at all. 3 big forwards maybe unworkable. No forward pressure or ability to keep the ball locked in. Bounces straight out every time.
