[Hubnester]

Hmm seems like today isn't the day we get out of this form slump. Would love to know what's happened to make us all look so lethargic so suddenly and for so long. Something isn't right

 

[Ricmel]

What time does Harley start?

 

[XhazzafootyX]

Haven’t played this bad since 2014

 

[g_TRAIN]

Give it a rest.

Honestly he's right.

That said, doesn't mean we sack Ross.

 

[moirae42]

This is gonna be an absolute hiding.

 

[saintbill]

Dees working 10 times harder. Either our fitness is not up to scratch, or we.are.just completely cooked with our structures.

Coaches have a lot to answer for. This is simply an unacceptable standard. It's bottom 2 stuff. We have SFA injuries.

Lyon has managed to coach everybody into career worst form.

Marshall getting an absolute bath by a ruckman who knows how to win taps to advantage.

 

[StFly]

Kick first goal: yay!
Spend next 29mins in Dees F50...

I think these guys are butt people, they like chasing them so often.

 

[70s sainter]

As a bad a quarter of football ive seen form any team

Bonner stuffed up, but is doing something our forwards and midfield aren't doing...getting his hands on the ball

So what . He grubbed it then let them run straight back past him . The bloke has nt laid a tackle this season.

 

[Hayes4PM]

The Bonner experiment is over, RIP the Bonner experiment. Let the new Schoenmaker experiment begin I say. Or at the very least, bring Paton in and PLAY HIM AS A DEFENDER for Bonner.

 

[Miha]

Marshall getting an absolute bath by a ruckman who knows how to win taps to advantage.

We really do need a tap ruckman AND better mids. Damn

 

[g_TRAIN]

How did he get a game..wtf is Lyon thinking?

Thats what your thinking now?

Least of our worries. He's never had a chance to show us what he can do

 

[Saint Shags]

Give it a rest.

What? State the bleeding obvious?
Skills have gone backwards this year.
Game plan doesn't seem to be one that actually works to any strength of ours at all.
We are being absolutely destroy at present and your issue is I'm having a crack at the coach?

He's the one that sets the tone and gets our players prepared yeah? Well I'd suggest that it isn't working at present.

 

[Brian Oblivion]

Bonner is the worst kick for a bloke who can actually kick a footy. Such a lazy action, he scrubs 3 out of 5 balls along the ground. I've seen enough of him, I don't want him to play above kids anymore

also doesn't put his head over the loose ball = squib

 

[kick it lace out]

Can Brendan Goddard actually coach? Ever since he took over as the midfield coach our midfield has been absolute dog poo.

Ross needs to move BJ on at the end of the year and bring in someone experienced. We should not be a club where coaches can learn on the job.

 

[Cairnsman]

We are playing like a team who knows their finals chances are over, Steele is Captain Invisible, Owens looks more like a leader.

We need a captain that can stand up and do something. I think we need a new captain for next year. He's just not willing to do anything to get his team going.

 

[CHBench]

I haven't watched us in a few weeks, but this is a weak effort across the entire ground, wow

 

[Verdun66]

We’re getting killed, but you can’t help noticing dubious free kicks against, and missed free kicks for. Gets accentuated when you are copping it. We get a free against for a throw. Theirs is missed, and a goal eventuates.

As I said earlier, a hard watch. Maybe they know a couple of early picks is the way forward for future seasons. Hard to think otherwise.

 

[Plugger35]

Our forwards can't buy a free kick inside 50 and they need all the help they can get, any chance they can throw us a frickin bone?

 

[saintbill]

At least the hawks winning helps us get a better draft pick…

Hawks and Eagles clearly finishing above us this year. We are in the race for pick 2. Tigers will snag a few wins on the run home IMO.

 

[Joffaboy]

Insipid display. No enthusiasm no energy, no skill, going nowhere.

I know it's an excuse, but the draw for the first 8 rounds just destroyed our season.

[Veer Right]

Only teams we are better then are North and a Richmond team missing a number of key players.

West Coast would dominate us with there line up this week.

We are a top 8 team in my eyes, yet we have dropped to a new low this year.

Putting this squarely on Ross.

 

[RBW_007]

Their backs push up so our forwards follow them. So when we get a fast break there's no one over the top to kick it to.
We're playing into their hands and letting them dictate territory and also allowing their backs to support their midfield.

 

[SaintJunior]

Outstanding quarter of football.

Can’t question the players commitment to slipping over , fumbling the ground ball , dropping a mark , missing a target , not nailing tackles and not picking up a player in transition .

Absolute master class of what not to do.

Absolutely elite .

At least in the 80s we might have been shot but had a dip.

Takes no ability to compete .

 

[Stan_Darsh72]

Getting killed on the outside, getting killed on the counter.

Can we please go all out attack. We might get killed but at least we die fighting
