Melbourne v Saints, 23 Aug 2025, 1.05pm @ Casey Fields

[Saints2001]

Teams out, just the one change with Barr in and Plane out.

Excited to see how we go after that win in Rd 1, Melbourne should be a tougher challenge.

 

[Saints2001]

Harris on fire at the start here, unfortunately for us

 

[StPiper]

Gee they look average.

 

[Saints2001]

Yeah just no run and carry, and sloppy in dropping some marks. Melbourne just too organised and keeping the ball in their own half.

Saints 8 marks to half time is shocking.

Very disappointing after last week.

 

[The Jack]

What a difference a week can make

Why arent these match day threads on the main Saints board?

 

[Saints2001]

I've never made one before so didn't know it had to go there.

Baskaran has been ordinary today, lots of frees given away and kicking not great.

Just can't hold our marks and Melbourne have so many free runners getting handball chains.

 

[Sarcoidevo]

Completely destroyed

I prefer it here. I get notifications when somebody posts here. When the threads end up on the main board, I don't see them at all.

 

[Saints2001]

Yeah bit of a thrashing. Our good players just couldn't get in, Wardlaw with 5 disposals for example. Back to the drawing board.

Expected loss, but margin and lack of competitiveness disappointing. Must win next week and hopefully some of the players that struggled to get near it can find some form. I imagine the Hawks will be a tough opponent. I want to have at least two wins after that game and I'm really hoping for three.
