Autopsy Round 7, 2020: Adelaide v St.Kilda *BYRNES DEBUT*

[George]

Before others want to shit on the performance...

First win at the Adelaide Oval.
First against the Crows in Adelaide since 2011.
A very important win interstate.
Back in the eight!

More importantly our pressure never wavered, our skill might fluctuate but effort should be a non-negotiable and we should be giving great effort for four quarters. We did that tonight, it was pleasing to see that we at least capable of it.

We were challenged a few times from the Crows and we did well to respond.

If we can give the same level of effort in the rest of our games this year we will be in and around the final eight.

Feels good to be back on the winners list. Well done boys!

 

[Saintos The ITK]

Atrocious umpiring
Good effort to find a way to win
Lots to do to improve

 

[Hubnester]

Huge win made even bigger by having constant calls made against us all night.
Showed a lot of resilience - and to come out in the last quarter guns blazing to seal it was very good to see.
Well done boys

 

[Ducky Tie]

Thank bloody god.

Came for four points and got it. Was a tough game to watch but got what we came for.

 

[SaintersUnite]

Good to get the win.

Sad to see the sport becoming the joke that it is. Players are afraid to hold onto the ball for more than two seconds because of the new HTB interpretation. And the umpires just ruined the entire spectacle of tonight regardless.

Fk you adelaide.
Fk you umpires.
Fk you matthew nicks.
And most of all. Fk you tex walker you prawn headed soft cocked flog.

 

[gringo2011]

Steele, Howard and Gresham outstanding. Paddy won us first use when the game was on the line. Lacked a rebound defender all night.

 

[saintkildaman]

Dougsssss

 

[D2D3]

Looked bad for a minute there but came through pretty well in the end.
Steele, Coffield and Jones had rippers.

Been far too long between drinks in beating this buggers, and to do it in SA is even better.

Thank Christ Betts had left

Delicious

 

[joop]

For the first time in my life Aussie Rules has become unwatchable, it’s not even remotely close to the sport I grew up playing.

 

[my name was taken]

Wasnt pretty and a lot to work on for next week but we'll take it

 

[dct66]

Great win. Crows back on their home deck with a crowd. Well paced by the Saints. Had enough in reserve when Adelaide pushed unlike last week.

 

[Armitage2Riewoldt]

Howard snake and coffield is starting to look pretty ****ing sexual.

And that's not including Hunter, Wilkie and paton!

Take the points.

 

[tomjoad]

We'll take the win...it doesn't have to be pretty.
Well done Saints...back in the 8.

 

[XhazzafootyX]

Liked:
We won away from Marvel
Howard’s game
Coffield Clark and Paton as a backline. Showed composure, still very very young.
Steele showed what sort of midfielder he can be.
Butlers front and centres

disliked:
Lonies decision making.
Two rucks. I don’t think playing Ryder and Marshall works sadly.
When the pressure was on, we went away from playing our style.

 

[Curunir]

Marshall needs to be the sole ruck. I don't mind Ryder but he takes away too much from Marshalls game and doesn't add enough to make it worth while.

 

[plugger66]

Terrible game. Very good win though. Probably need to improve 20% next week. Not to many changes. Depends how they pull up though. Steele clearly best. Coffs best game. Marshall is as good a forward as my mum. Harsh on mum.
