Glad we extended Ross

Are we allowed to get upset about first quarter performances yet, or do we have to pretend that practise matches have no impact on round one?

Yes you can, tantrum away champ

Going to be a long season…..

Arie needs to improve his defensive stuff. Spoil that ball on the wing and we don't concede that late goal. Defense looks at sea, conceded some shockers out the back.

Boyd is tapping it to the same place each time so our mids need to wake up.

Tough to watch.

 

[my name was taken]

perspective ffs

7 players out

5 of those are forwards

 

[Speck]

Absolute disgrace of a quarter.

Boyd is winning taps, but the Crows end up with the ball.

He hits the ball forward and Crouch is the only one waiting there to swallow it up.

 

[Hayes4PM]

Didn't see this thread, was wondering why no one was melting. Nice to see the melts are sufficient for this shit show.

 

[bergholt]

Have a think about how prominent these players have been this quarter:

Boyd
Hastie
Schoenmaker
Hall
Garcia
O'Connell

None of them have played 10 games yet.

Not surprising we're not going that well given the personnel out there.

There’s no one in the afl who would get this squad playing finals style footy this or next year

Well worth getting rid of Ratts to watch this sh*t

Glad we extended Ross

“St Kilda has dramatically overhauled its list in the past two years, turning over 20 players to complete a transition from the second oldest list in 2021 to enter this year with the fifth youngest list – and fourth least experienced – but the age profile only tells part of the story. They were third youngest until they signed 27-year-old ruckman Harry Boyd from Norwood in January.”


I’ll let you work out the Ratts part of the equation above.

 

[Browny2Carlisle]

Not completing tackles and leaving opposition free. No one can mark. Team selection confusing as always

 

[Barrels]

There’s so much melting in here we should change the thread name to Climate Change.

He hits the ball forward and Crouch is the only one waiting there to swallow it up.

To me, that's coaching

 

[Cleanupsoup]

McRae is a horrid kick, or a bad decision maker.

I spent years calling him the worst Multi all Australian ever. Always been a seagull benefitting from sharing a midfield with Libba and Bont

 

[Jade Buddha]

Senior players need to lift

McRae is a horrid kick, or a bad decision maker.

Always been a so so kick

I’m glad you are enjoying it!

No will be a wasted season. We will splutter while we get out players back then the second half when finals are gone we will win enough games to get about pick 7 in a compromised draft that will be about pick 14.

Barely had any marks in our forward half, hard to get repeat inside 50s unless we get some composure on the footy.

 

[Speck]

Hard to fathom that we are only missing Howard from our best defence, and at the start of last year Cordy was considered best 22 over him.

 

[Cleanupsoup]

Hastie looks a big improver. love to see it, he's got all the tools

 

[Teflon]

3 tackling him and he gets a handball out into the inside free player,,,goal
lol

How often do you see this?
Time and again are our players dumb?
Dogs do it to us all the time too
Everyone sucked into the contest..oppo player sits outside ball dribbles out …goal or easy walk away from stoppage
It’s just fckn dumb footy undermanned or not

 

[mad-saint-guy]

Boyd is winning taps, but the Crows end up with the ball.

Keeps hitting the ball to the exact same spot and we don't have a mid there

 

[Saint Kidding]

First 15 minutes of that quarter were ; seemed to settle after that.
30 points down at quarter time not great, but it's not game over yet. Let's see if we can re-jig from here.
