3 weeks in a row, St kilda has struggled to kick mre than 10 goals, should they recruit new forwards, or do they use some players at Casey?

Its a worry. Accuracy has obviously been a big problem over the last 2 weeks. I think we're really missing defensive forward pressure and smaller forwards that kick goals. Not sure why Milne wasn't at the feet of the forwards for the whole game.. X Clarke and C Jones would make a huge difference, not to mention Hamill.

Am i the only one who thinks we really missed brett voss?

Geelong and Sydney especially, but even Essendon and Collingwood seem to have the right mix of talls and smalls in their forward lines.

I also think the delivery into the forward line has been lame and slow. Too many passes/kicks for example being too high and over the top..

Think about how many times Riewoldt has been caught under the ball, and not running onto the pass.

Kicking is a dead set worry though. That miss by Riewoldt last night with a min to go in the 2nd qtr, 25 m out on a slight angle was a momentum turner. The cats kicked 2 goals in 35 seconds and it was all over after that.

I am not trying to be a troll. Why did McGough not make it. I thought he had a lot to work with and I hoped that my team would look at him. I heard he struggled with a troubled groin from his Pie days to his Saints days.

Our midfield is waaaaaaaay to slow at the moment. McGough would of just compounded the problem.

Just a very good example of the game getting to quick for him. If he was born 15-20 years earlier he would of crafted a good VFL/AFL career. The game in 2006 just got too quick. True we need some pace in our midfield.
