JLT Match Thread Saints v Blues 2018

Post: # 1712080Post Jacks Back »

With this being our first practice match I'd thought we could also get some practice in on a match thread.

Go Saints!

I know it's only a practice match, but I think McCartin needs to show something tonight. Not only to the club but for his own confidence.

Agreed. But if he makes it through unscathed and get his hands on the ball 10 times I will be happy.

Longer off to a great start. A liability around the ground.

So we’ll put down to JLT not meaning anything a la the bombers?...this is an absolutely pathetic showing against a team wildly tipped to be bottom 4 if not last

Players and coaches equal to blame

We are near full strength!!!

Loooooong season ahead

Can take little out of that so far ridiculous breeze at the ground has already cost us four or five easy scoring chances.

Blues had the wind that quarter. Let's see what we can do with it.

What a slow uninterested effort. Carlton look up and about and running hard, while we are running around in circles. Has the coach turned up yet? looks like nobody knows what they are supposed to be doing.

Free kick count would be extraordinary. I am not sure what the official count would be but on my reckoning at least around 10aainst us to our to 1 or 2 .

Lonie should not play beyond this match and in general we are showing a lack
Of skill when it comes to playing in these conditions. Why kick long savage? It’s only ever going to hold up in the wind
