Bloody hell, first quarter had some excitement. Last quarter was ok, but yeah probably out 12th game against teams outside the 8. And we have 16 points from those clashes.

Not sure what we do, we have Xerri back and not sure there is anyone else currently missing that we would, well, miss

The 2nd and 3rd quarters were horrible. And that's mainly around our efforts.
Nothing to be happy about for another week.
 
Had prior engagements so the best I could manage was to listen to the last quarter on my phone, Boomer was the special comments man on ABC, he was trying to remain neutral but palpably absolutely filthy with the basics being butchered time after time after time.

Another week and still we are going nowhere fast.
 
The a-typical lost it at selection game.

Logue - given a bath by Wood in the 2nd and 3rd - should have been Dawson on the big blond unit which would have let Charlie play on Wood.

Payne - take you're pick out of Harvey, RHJ or Krapstanty. RHJ went up for a mark in the fwd 50 when we were pressing and just shat himself.

Daniels - enough said - the definition of utter stupidity to keep playing this guy.
 
There are things we are doing well. There has been improvements. My big issue with the team is with the exception of 2 or 3 games in the middle of the year we only have 1 way to win.
We only have a clearance game. If we don’t win those we lose games. If we get beaten in the middle we get smacked.
We can’t defend transition at all and we don’t punish when we do get a turnover.
We have spent 2 offseasons working on how we move the ball and I don’t think we have seen the rewards of that yet. Transition defence is really a joke.

+30 disposals yet -27 contested and -16 I50s. Wasteful & soft.

Not for the first time we have way more footy but are far too slow and stagnant to convert it to scoring opportunities. Our guys just don't work hard enough and ball in hand we torch it more than any other team.

Some good moments from our younger guys, but another frustrating, coulda shoulda game against ordinary opposition.

It's mentally exhausting watching this team.
 
At the ground it's so obvious that we're playing a man down in defense with Daniel out there.

Comben needs to be much better.

I enjoyed FOS and Sheezel. LDU for most of the game, as well.

Stephens runs hard.

McKercher's ball use was costly, at times, and a weapon at others.

Mentally exhausting? You mean ****ing infuriating and unrewarding. We've literally had one decent win in three season.
 
That result was brought to you by AFL House.

The 3 week suspensions to Xerri followed by a Robert “Pencil Dick” O’Gorman fisting.

The club should ask AFL House to investigate how all his blunders magically favoured St Kilda?

He was the ****ing campaigner that paid the non mark to Wood from 50m away when the controlling ump said play on.

We didn't lose because of the umpires. We lost because we are a mentally fragile, sloppy football team who lack leadership on and off the field.

But, the test will be in a few weeks when the AFL announce the 16 to do the first week of finals. The best 16 - and then we track back how many times we got each. I'm betting none of O'Gorman, Bryce, Tee and Dore will be in the 16. Unfortunately, they sweep the shit under the rug in the non free to air timeslots we inhabit because we're shit too.

Every week we get the worst.

Payne kicks his 5th. We should leave him out again. Fmd

Forward of the ball his ball use is better. Lets play him there
 
Zurhaar sums up this team. Boots a simple 25 metre pass out on the full(inexcusable) then drifts forward takes a good mark and goals. You simply can't win games of footy when only every 2nd thing is done well. The standards at the club are laughable and have been for years.
Is that before or after hes missed a couple of sodas?
