Re: Round 1 team

That backline looks pretty shaky. I think it could pose a problem as the season progresses. Unfortunately I think you guys will slip out of the top four this year. Good luck for the season though!

The same backline that conceeded the least amount of points in 2009? The same backline that kept Collingwood to 40 and 52 points?

And the team against who the Dogs kicked their three lowest scores against in 2009 and suddently we're ROTTEN TOMATOES and Barry Hall of all people is all the rage because of some good NAB Cup games. People have very poor memories.......

Be that as it may, your backline works reasonably well as a team, however, isolate any of that back six and i'll say it again - very shaky. Teams have worked out how to penetrate the St.Kilda backline. Ross Lyon will have to have a 'Plan B' up his sleeve. Good luck for the seaon proper gents!

ANY of the back six. Sam Fisher? Sam Gilbert? Jason Blake? Jason Gram? Shaky when isolated?
You sir seem to have the intelligence of ..... a Collingwood supporter.

Sam Fisher is the only one there of any note one-on-one. Gilbert will improve with time, he is not there yet but a good kid nonetheless. Be a good test for our boys when we meet you early in the season proper. Guess we will see how far we've come and if you guys have stalled. Good luck for 2010!
 
Re: Round 1 team

I'd damn well say that Gilbo is already there dumbass.
Just how far do collingwood think they have come? I don't think the saints regard it as a test. I think Collingwood are strictly 2nd rung, 5th to 8th should do them. To be tested by collingwood is like racing against the Jamaican bobsled team, except Jamaicans seem to be humble.
Go back to your own forum pal, noone here is worried about being tested by Collingwood, except our patience with their unjustified confidence. We didn't even breathe hard thrashing you 3 times last year.

Hey there Daz, no need to get personal mate, just offering an opinion. I think you guys may stall this year or even go backwards. Your backline looks pretty shaky, your midfield lacks pace and you are bereft of a second marking forward. Take it or leave it. Nice to talk to you.

Our backline was the best in the AFL last year and we haven't changed it (Hudghton and Maguire - as unfortunate as it was for two club heroes - hardly played last year).

We just got rid of our slowest midfielder (to you actually).

Koschitzke as our second marking forward had more marks than your best marking forward (Cloke) last year.

Take it or leave it. Nice to talk to you.

That's your cue.

Nobody cares about the opinion of a troll.
 
Re: Round 1 team

^^^^ Koschitzke wouldn't rate in the top 30 forwards in the league. I feel you guys may have missed the boat in terms of a premiership and are a little defensive when criticised. If you are not concerned with what I am saying then why bother responding at all. I am just offering an opinion and feel there are a few cracks starting to appear in your side. Cheers!

Hmm 12th best goal kicker, 20th marks , 6th marks inside 50, 5th for contested marks. I'd rate him top 30, and we are hoping that some of the others on the way up are going to be better than him.

Thing is, its pretty clear that your opinion is not worth that much.
I don't want to Change to Optus, I don't want to refinance my Home Loan, I don't want to invest in some bullshit shares , and I dont want your worthless opinion.

To people who inflict all of these things onto me I give the same response , "F*** off"
Go onto the Collingwood board and tell them how great Collingwood are and how Saints will slip out of the 4. They will all agree with you and duck out to the TAB to put money on it. Good Luck.

Please name these 30 forwards??

Still ranked #12 in Total goals with 48 as a 2nd key forward and #1 in AFL for contested marks.

Haha Kosi and Milne easily outscored Collingwoods best two goalkickers last year. So if our forward line is shaky Collingwoods is a mess.
I feel sorry for Darren Jolly, he will be expected to tap out to Ball, then run to the forward line in time to mark and goal.
 
Re: Round 1 team

Would a Saints supporter really be able go on to the Collingwood board and say:

"No offence guys, I wanted you to win on Saturday. However, the way your team constantly plays around the boundary line rather than down the middle of the ground is just not conducive to winning games of footy against the better teams. I feel Travis Cloke is a power forward who takes plenty of marks on the wing but he doesn't do enough damage on the scoreboard. He misses far too many easy shots at goal, etc etc etc".

No, I didn't think so either Doc.
 
Re: Round 1 team

What is it with Collingwood supporters and premiership crystal balling since the off season? "I have nothing in the St Kilda games that will change my opinion about us finishing higher than them..." "I'm afraid that you'll miss the premiership because your backline is woaaah, sucky mclotsarse..." "we now have a ruckman who can jump, and a guy who can get the footy, PHEAR TEH MIGHTY BIRDS!"

It is getting worrisome that in every thread to do with St Kilda, even on our own board there has to be one individual from that sorry pack of social misfits who feels that they need to spew this rhetoric constantly so that we all remember why it is we want to punch a fair few of you in the faces.

I mean, great googly moogly, we don't give a toss that you think your side is super duper, because a 6-3 record in finals suggest that you're full of crap more often than not. We don't give a toss if you find one individual problematic to our success because as if you really give a damn or actually make the effort to, you watch a game of footy and come to the conclusion based on 1 instance sometimes that "oh that player obviously can't hack it" as opposed to those opposition supporters who actually manage to get to VFL games or take an interest in football as opposed to goddamn narrow minded club focus.

It's not witty, it's not subtle, its quite goddamn irritating to even see such tripe being circulated and if that's what passes as constructive criticism these days then it's also quite brainless.

But don't worry, because that wasn't a personal attack, it was constructive for you to improve your mental faculties as you wouldn't rate in the top 20million of Australia's most intelligent citizens.

It's honestly beginning to wear on my patience, and Sainter / K, I'd have no problem if you deleted this as I ultimately just needed to vent. :thumbsu:
 
Re: Round 1 team

I never knew that a few comments on team structure and personel would evoke such a personal attack. Play the ball, not the man. If you disagree with my opinion that's fine but if you think it's not worthy of a response, why bother. You guys must be feeling the pressure to succeed hard to handle. Good luck and goodbye.

The Doc.

Dear Mr Doc.
Although you are very polite you are in fact a troll.
This thread is about the team that will be selected by StKilda, to play round 1 against the Swans.
None of your comments have been in any way relevant to the topic.

Please stop saying good luck, please stop saying goodbye and just f*** off already. ( and have a nice day ).

When you visit the St Kilda board and amongst other things claim that we've missed the boat for a premiership, our back six is shaky and Koschitzke isn't in the top 30 forwards in the game you are going to receive criticism.

All we've had since October last year is Collingwood supporters coming onto our board questioning every little aspect of the club. With all due respect we don't care what you all think about St Kilda. That is why we are posting on the St Kilda board. It's our little sanctuary away from the main board and bay 13.

By the way, it's very much a two way street when it comes to the respective forums. Any Saints supporter that has posted on your board can attest to that.

Of course there will be pressure when we come up against the likes of Geelong and Western Bulldogs in the coming months. They are the two teams that at this point in time are standing in our way of winning a premiership.

Goodbye.

Honestly, and as a former Collingwood board mod, I think we'd allow that. More than likely a few Pies posters would tell them to piss off, but I don't think the mods would intervene if they'd been in some way constructive. We're pretty bloody laissez-faire on the Pies board, as copping criticism from all quarters is very much part of barracking for the Magpies.

Anyway, with Fisher out, I would have thought a Kosi -> backline and Stanley -> forwardline change might have been on the cards... but given he (Stanley) didn't play the NAB Cup final it seems unlikely. So what's the answer?

I can't say I'm overly disappointed that Fisher won't be available (in all likelihood) to play the Pies in round 3, he's a bloody good player. Sure, you like to be able to play the best... but winning's always the object as I know you'll appreciate... damn I can't wait until the start of the season!

Ive posted on the Pies board - what was a simple question and was howled down for it and warned.

Why are they allowed to get away with veiled trolls here?

Fk em off to the toothless nest.....

Yes, it must be awful having to endure someone posting with a modicum of respect for your team. I don't know how you can bear it.

Get off the weed you toothless ****.
Don't get much adult conversation, do you?

Anyway, anyone care to discuss football?
