Can anyone with vision let us know what's going on?

Poor start by us... -5 on the tackle count before 1/4 time!

sainter#4 · Post: # 957681Post **sainter#4** » Sat 17 Jul 2010 3:42pm

just getting dominated by the pies....

Collingwood think that the grand final is being played in round 16.

mullet · Post: # 957683Post **mullet** » Sat 17 Jul 2010 3:44pm

wouldnt be too bad if we kicked straight

4.3 them
1.4 us

Ryanstein · Post: # 957684Post **Ryanstein** » Sat 17 Jul 2010 3:44pm

Collingwood on top. Playing all over us. We cannot get the ball in our forward 50.

Pies 28
Saints 10

Life Long Saint · Sat 17 Jul 2010 3:45pm

Not looking promising...

Down at 1/4 time with our worst quarter to come...Our 2nd quarters this season have been terrible.

mullet · Post: # 957686Post **mullet** » Sat 17 Jul 2010 3:45pm

they were always going to come out firing

Lets hope we can wear them down like we have done in the past

We are faling for their pressure. Need to stand up and show some guts.

Faark mcqualter when u get the rare chance swallow it!

degruch · Post: # 957690Post **degruch** » Sat 17 Jul 2010 3:48pm

Hmmm...bit of a dirty day so far, two lazy disposal = 2 goals to the Pies, plus 2 missed frees to St Kilda = 2 Pies goals.

Great tackle and goal by Ball, unfortunately.

Nice of the umpire to tell Dawson he has no intention of paying him a free kick at all today.

All in all, had we kicked better it'd be even. C'mon Saints.

saintluke · Post: # 957691Post **saintluke** » Sat 17 Jul 2010 3:49pm

Our kicking efficiency is killing us at the moment. Their pressure is causing long loose kicks to outnumbered contest. Don't feel as though we're that far out of it. Playing poorly only down by 3 goals... We've been here before. Just need to get back to the basics, lift tackle count and our intensity around the contests.

Ryanstein · Post: # 957693Post **Ryanstein** » Sat 17 Jul 2010 3:51pm

Put one goal down to the umps. Dawson was pushed in the back

matrix · Post: # 957694Post **matrix** » Sat 17 Jul 2010 3:51pm

roo has hurt his shoulder slightly
nothing major
came off
went back on
showed footage at qtr time of how he did it
just falling to the ground in a contest elbow/forearm down and seemed to wince a bit
is on the ground and seems to be playing thru

we have no run consistently
dawson copped a beauty high and it was payed holding the ball
dal obviously out
collingwood chipping it around a bit, trying not to go wide but are more often than not actually doing that
playing much better than us, but we start like this quite often
collingwood look to be switched on and we look to be a bit slow, they have more pressure at the man than we do at the moment

kozi started in the ruck and seems to be swapping with gards
pattison comes on when roo goes off (so far)

few turnovers on our behalf, and they seem to be keeping us from entering the 50

they just said that its roos knee that was the main concern
and his shoulder was the lesser prob
trainers went up to him apparently and he pushed them away
he looks fine, just a 'bit' ginger maybe??

go siants

Ryanstein · Post: # 957696Post **Ryanstein** » Sat 17 Jul 2010 3:53pm

Another goal to the pies. Bad start

AP Erebus · Post: # 957697Post **AP Erebus** » Sat 17 Jul 2010 3:53pm

shaw goals straight after the restart...

Sigh...

Not looking good.

mullet · Post: # 957698Post **mullet** » Sat 17 Jul 2010 3:53pm

thanks matrix nice wrap up

Devilhead · Post: # 957699Post **Devilhead** » Sat 17 Jul 2010 3:54pm

Making a lot of basic mistakes even when not under pressure - doesn't help either when the Pies have received a few crucial dodgy free kicks as well

matrix · Post: # 957700Post **matrix** » Sat 17 Jul 2010 3:54pm

roo just lead to the wings 50 and marked
did both fine

looks fine

lurker#134 · Post: # 957704Post **lurker#134** » Sat 17 Jul 2010 3:59pm

Danger.

AP Erebus · Post: # 957705Post **AP Erebus** » Sat 17 Jul 2010 3:59pm

Brown goals again...

Another skill error by fisher...

FFS Saints... what the hell are you doing?

Devilhead · Post: # 957706Post **Devilhead** » Sat 17 Jul 2010 3:59pm

Fisher is having an absolute SHOCKER!!!!!

older saint · Sat 17 Jul 2010 4:01pm

Turnovers off half back hurt us a lot all year - Gilbert and Fisher.

Beaten on the hard stuff tackles etc

Interesting 2 weeks in a row resting key midfielders .

Too cute Saints, we are 5 down and we are going short all the time. Without Dal our kicking skills look very average. This could get very ugly!
