Surely our coaches have seen what Richmond are doing in marking contests?

The Roma and Paddy combo is so so so important to how we play - better up front, better in the middle and around the ground.

Long needs to stop fumbling.

We get called back on the mark 3 metres but they never do. Apparently toe poking now equals kicking in danger but when they do it, play on.

Last game we were 36 points up on the crows and lost. I think we're playing better tonight though.

Has there been another team in the AFL that has kicking in danger paid against them in the last 5 years, or just us....every game?

Good 1st half but the Saints cant go into the shell in the 2nd half. They need to keep up their work rate dare and taken the game on. At times they get too static out of defence and allow Richmond set up behind the ball.

He hasnt had a huge game but I'm liking Long up forward again, his attack on the ball makes things happen. Dunstan, Sinclair, Byrnes and Higgins are having a really good games also, but the job is only half done.

Highmore is another who looks more confident tonight. I have talked him down but perhaps we have found one there.

Done one bad thing getting caught holding, as no team mates gave him an option, but overall OK

Half time & it's has been a pretty solid display their inaccuracy has helped but hey we all know what can happen & it can happen very quickly . Go Sainters keep fighting & give your selves a chance to get some credibility back

Yeah I’m afraid 5 minutes of Richmond turning it on will undo all our hard work

Sarcasm? A couple of dubious kicking in danger against us.

It’s excellent according to the AFL to keep Richmond in the game.

The first 60 minutes of the second half will be crucial.
