Autopsy Round 1, 2019: St.Kilda v Gold Coast *Parker, Wilkie & Kent Debut*

[StKing11]

Joyce 1v1 with Wright and Dunstan going hard AF at that 50/50 ground ball, two massive contests in the last minute of a 1 point game that helped us hold on.

 

[Quixote]

As much as Dunstan was shit all game in the last contest where he put his body on the line he was awesome.

Agree, that contest could very well have won us the game. Well done Luke.

 

[KingJim]

Well it's a win and I will take it. Now, to change my shorts!

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

Stick that up your corrupt backsides umps. Couldnt beat us.

 

[Noidenous]

Shit coach. Shit performance.

Shit censorship.

 

[Geezington]

That was a ridiculous contest from dunstan, got me ****ed why hind and clark didn’t play same shit as last year going by that performance

 

[Crusty Undies]

Stick that up your corrupt backsides umps. Couldnt beat us.

For sure. Slimy bastards can go EAD.

 

[austinnn]

In the final 2 minutes, I was surprised we weren't just getting into space and chipping it around for uncontested marks to play keepings off for the last minute instead of our trademark long bombs into packs.

Then again cool heads and strategy don't seem to have much of a place in this team.

 

[Persevering Saint]

Well it's a win and I will take it. Now, to change my shorts!

I'm finding it hard to type on my phone, my hands are shaking too much.

 

[jwikked]

Hopefully this is the spark the team needs to come out firing next week. We've got a tough 10 weeks coming up. It's very possible we'll be 1-9.

 

[Ekomaira]

**** yeah

 

[George]

Good win! Needed to start the season strong. Very rusty but some promising signs! Umpires shocking. Well done boys!!

 

[Sheepey]

McKenzie's disposal was very good but he was a terrible defender in that last quarter. Got 2 goals kick on him from Swallow and could have been 3 if Luko kicked straight.

Looks like the fittest team in the comp myth has been dispelled. We looked out on our feet, particularly Pierce who was lethargic by the end.

 

[SaintWWodonga]

Not convincing at all. Umps terrible. Parker & Wilkie good 1st up games.

 

[Geary Is GOAT]

I actually thought we looked okay. Dominated huge parts of the game with out applying scoreboard pressure. Like many have said we should have and looked like we would win by 5+ goals. Really struggled to manage their aerial threats and it had an impact all the way down. Will be better with Brown back next week.

 

[Verdun66]

Same! Back to bed now...

Not sure I can. And I've been drinking decaf. Must have been hot (as in temperature) as both teams ran out of gas. But gee, we need to improve. At least we got 4 points....

 

[kernelT]

Like last year against that rabble, I find it very hard to take a lot out of that.

Slightly less putrid and probably lucky in the end.

Sorry if that offends some.

 

[GTrains Mullet]

If we don’t go to the AFL with a please explain the we are weak as piss. Make it public too

 

[triggering bro]

GOAT, Clark, Brown & Marshall MUST come in next week. Dunstan & Pierce out. I’ll need to cool myself down before I think who else goes out.

 

[bird_man]

Geez, that last qtr by Mckenzie was poor.

 

[HayesTheChamp]

That was absolutely disgusting a performance. When you have to rely on Joyce and Wilkie to carry our defence FMD. It's 4.55am and I stayed up to watch the absolute filth and dribble that we dished up today.

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

For sure. Slimy bastards can go EAD.

Ive never seen our fans blow a collective fuse like that in my life

 

[triggering bro]

Like last year against that rabble, I find it very hard to take a lot out of that.

Slightly less putrid and probably lucky in the end.

Sorry if that offends some.

Just think if GC had 22 fit blokes out there. We would’ve lost.

 

[plugger66]

Impressive. No ordinary but a win is a win. Slow side. The game is now about smalls and medium talls apart from the ruck. Time to try Marshall. Lonie and Parker very good. Backs good. Mids ok. Steven is still vital. Can someone explain gresh form

 

[TassieSaint]

Nothing convincing about that display

I dunno, I'm pretty convinced we will be terrible again this year much like I was after R1 vs Brisbane last year.
