He was good around the ground. Took a few good grabs, got outmarked once or twice but outmarked more...

 

[SA1NTER]

Hehehehehe good times boys!!!!

I'm really feeling good.

 

[Plugger35]

Suck shit Crows denied a goal on the line.

The Mighty Saints scrape over the line for a magnificent ton Steve Waugh style.

Jacobs was about the only Crow who won his position, he had McEvoy's number in the ruck and around the ground, Thompson and Rutten did well fighting against the tide. Otherwise, abysmal.

I thought doughty tried as well.
Petrenko tries as well, danger field will be a star if he's not already, van berlo is an issue, must be really regretting not having an edwards, McLeod or good win in.
I think Adelaide really lack leadership presence, they needed to keep one of the big four IMO. Edwards specifically.
There's **** all seniors out there and that's a real issue.

 

[CrashTestDummy]

Adelaide worst score ever and it wasn't even at Moorabbin.

Ok!

Hands up to those who want to play us in finals?

 

[Superduperouzel]

A slaughter by the sound of it. Percentage boost , confidence boost.
Great 200th game by Johncock on Milney (8).
Can´t wait to watch the replay.

He certainly didn't have McEvoys number around the ground 20 touches to 13, 7 contested to 6, 4 contested marks to 3. All of those are McEvoys way. Yes Jacobs killed him in hitouts but i don't see how he was better around the ground.

Yep win lose or draw we are not going to just go away and die and sit down the bottom. Im happy that so many other fans beleive we have no talent coming through. Hope they keep thinking that Already got 1 of the best all round the field ruckman in the league and the best part is he has 10 years to go yet

 

[sauce_head]

It is so nice to watch a game in a totally relaxed manner after half time!

We have to make the finals, will be a travesty if pretenders like Freo, Essendon and Sydney make the finals ahead of us.

We just need to sneak in there and we will wreak havoc.

 

[CrashTestDummy]

I was so way off.

I said 8 goals plus. What would I know?

But I don't care because there will be only one team left for the 2011 Flag,

and that will be THE ST.KILDA FOOTBALL CLUB. There is only one club left to rattle their cage. And that's Us!

 

[Kildonan]

The aspect I particularly liked:

Q1 5. 1 31 5.1

Q2 5. 1 31 10.2

Q3 4. 9 33 14.11

Q4 5. 2 32 19.13 (127)

no goalless quarter - in fact remarkably consistent scoring

I reckon!
Nice form ... Now to make the 8, and give it a shake

 

[Plugger35]

I only tipped us by 40 points, was tempted to tip us by more but thought Adelaide would have come out firing after last week and with Johncock's 200th.

Should never have doubted us, I should have been bold and tipped us for the ton.

Live and learn I guess.

 

[sauce_head]

Q3 4. 9 33 14.11

Nine! If only that was the other way around...

Not quite yet. But it's always good to have confidence.

 

[StFly]

I had us by 27, expecting a fired up brutal Adelaide response for 3/4, as such my excuse is that I was trying to pick Adelaides total score and was as such extremely close to it....

Thoroughly enjoyed Polo's work this game as well, thought he played very well, Gram upped his tempo as well.
