Need to turn the pressure here.
******* woeful umpiring.
When was the last time you saw an umpire pay a mark from a handball?
A f#cking handball gets paid a mark.
OMFG!!!!!!!

We got smashed in the centre clearances in the last 10 minutes.
On the bright side, how good is Callan Ward? He's a magician at times.

Take Riewoldt out of the team and we are 30in front. The Guy is just Brilliant. Still can go either way.
When inside 50 and in doubt... Have a ping... C'mon lads.
Giles! So smooth from Kelly too.

"That's an extraordinary decision."
Understatement.
* these umpires are so awful they'd be fired if the AFL in any way rewarded competency.
Free kick for performing a legal handball. Add it to the bounced mark, and hey, a free shove right there too.

What the * was that. Smith disposes of the ball and is pinged. Rubbish.
Gotta hit the scoreboard when we've got that much footy inside 50.
Cogs, just go check side on the right foot mate...
Toby Greenes disposal is disgraceful but the whole team is showing a bit of panic today
Umpires need to give themselves Brownlow votes. Clearly St Kilda's best.
Frustrating. Very. *******. Frustrating.

Well we had our chances to win and just couldn't take it. ******* awful all around - umps put together something special, someone really needs to put together a montage of their "highlights". Credit to the Saints defence, Patton and Cameron were exposed as still a bit inexperienced and not sure how to react if being held well.
Not blaming umpires for the loss but some decisions were bewildering. Saints are not as bad as everyone thought. Well doneto them.High point for us. Kelly looks the goods
I think a good run for Lamb with UWS will see him come in for Addison.
At least it was lack of composure and not lack of legs. I thought that was the problem in the third but that probably isnt giving Saints enough credit. our big guns were both off their ganes today. Cameron seemed really flat

7 points. And we had more scoring shots.
But considering our previous two outings against the Saints were absolute pastings, we're obviously making great progress.
Bring on the Demons!

As frustrating as the loss must be, the skill level and composure shown by Kelly is what I'd be taking out of the game.
Also super impressed with Hampton.
Jezza probably more more games like that than we notice, but comes out of the with 3-4 goals. Save for a couple of poorly hit set shots he might've done the same today...
Kelly was awesome, will be interesting to see how he can run out a game as a starter.
Hampton was more good than bad for sure, hope he keeps giving that dash.
...and yet it was much more disappointing this loss than any 100 point walloping of the past 2 years. Several botched opportunities in front of goal real cost us the game.
