6.12 says it all.


Think of me long enough to make a memory.

9.3 v 6.12 (+2 shots failing to score at all)

That's the story of our season right there.

Interesting stat about buddy - played his 100th, 200th and now 300th against us.
Wouldn’t have happened to too many players you’d think!

We had a huge chance to kick 3,4 , 5 goals clear, and stuffed it up. Keep Swans in game and they make the most of it. So frustrating

3 goals in 3 minutes

So our third quarters are all going to plan then ...

Who was coralling the Swan onstead of tackling? Goal square? Hopeless

This is a team game and there is no room for individuals who think they are above walking through the fire.

Same old story - I already posted at half time that our third quarters have been abysmal all season - players should have been put on notice, but were they? Oh, no.
Instead allowing Sydney who have struggled to score all year to kick 3 goals in 3 minutes and then a fourth in a row only two minutes later.

Not good enough - and it all starts at selection. Same players doing it all year, same players selected every week. It's a cancer.

Some of the players given contract extensions is absolutely baffling, it really is.

So is the selectors playing obviously injured players each week too BTW.

And another demoralising third quarter comes to an end - thankfully the last one for this season. Letting four goals go through in five minutes. Sheesh...

Back to crap ball use again. We do really do make it hard for ourselves.

We have to play against the Swans and ourselves!

Hind having bad game too. He just cannot win the ball often enough, and when he does gain the bal is just too slow with his decision making.

There is one big positive from today, it's the last game of the season.

Haha Lonie... can barely kick it over 35m but will have a couple of shots from 50 every week.

Spot on, selection integrity was a real concern with Richardson and hasn’t improved with Ratten

Playing for a Brad Hill draft pick.


The Saints are under review, will it make any difference to the underachievers ?
