Game Day Round 13, 2018: Gold Coast v St.Kilda

[kernelT]

What is Longer good at other than his ruck work. He is genuinely a liability around the ground

He is also being beaten in the ruck, but we are up in clearances so people will claim that's why we are going so great today.

 

[Confuscius]

Have a look at the stat sheet and the categories we currently lead in...

FFS it's not rocket science! Our forward structure is ****ing shambolic. Our use going forward is diabolocal.

Knew I shouldn't have watched this

 

[aussierulesrules]

Destroying them out of the middle but not capitalising on it and they're cutting us up with their kicking when they take it down the ground.

 

[bird_man]

We are leading 39-25 contested possessions & down by 6 points. FMD

Just not enough speed and polish!

Dropping Coff and Phillips was a strange move.

 

[aussierulesrules]

He is also being beaten in the ruck, but we are up in clearances so people will claim that's why we are going so great today.

Beaten in the ruck!? You've got to be kidding, he's giving us an armchair ride out of the centre bounces and it's resulted in multiple clean clearances!

 

[Pardon me]

We absolutely smashed them in the middle.

Contested footy, clearances.

Just gotta make better use of it. We have the breeze this qtr.

Billings terrific

Ross, Steven and Armo all working their arse off!

Lack of leg speed the killer, but the effort is there.

Agree birdman. Armo turning back the clock! Inside 50’s are the usual story. Webster out is really going to bite us in the arse

 

[Coconut_twirl]

Saints lead 115-67 disposals. Yet Suns are a goal up? Scary.

 

[George]

Longer is smashing Witts.

We are dominating clearance.

 

[The Enemy Within]

Destroying them out of the middle but not capitalising on it and they're cutting us up with their kicking when they take it down the ground.

If the clearance stats continue this quarter we will be 5 goals up at 1/2 time.

All season?

All last season, all the season before that one.

The coaching staff don't seem to realize Milney isn't scooping up the loose balls.
**** I miss Milney. The tiprat, I heard he hated that nickname.

Membrey getting beaten by Thompson in every contest.

Someone needs to level Touk, too.

fair enough too, wasn't it brayshaw/eddie/glyon that coined it? bloody flogs. nickname shoulda been the untouchable silky bastard or something.. tip rat is insulting.

 

[bird_man]

How big is this breeze?

 

[Joffaboy]

Beaten in the ruck!? You've got to be kidding, he's giving us an armchair ride out of the centre bounces and it's resulted in multiple clean clearances!

Yes he is.

God we lack leg speed

Lack leg speed or know what to do with them?

 

[ERMAHGERD]

If only our forwards could get on the lead and be proactive the mids might stop bombing it in from centre clearence.
We are beating them in most aspects except the scoreboard.

 

[VDS66]

He is also being beaten in the ruck, but we are up in clearances so people will claim that's why we are going so great today.

12-9.

Centre clearances 8-0 in our favour.

Spud DAve going ok.

 

[my name was taken]

Saints lead 115-67 disposals. Yet Suns are a goal up? Scary.

random flicky hand pass *10, then a long kick to a bad contest #saintsfooty

 

[Plugger35]

Need to cut down the turnovers as Gold Coast are burning us with their leg speed.

Slow it down and maintain possession should be the message from Richo.

 

[jwikked]

Umps have been fine so far, very fair for once. Don't know the count, but they've paid what I've seen.

 

[PaddyMcClunkin]

Mav hits his 1 kick 2 handball quota at quarter time!

 

[Impatient Saint]

Destroying them out of the middle but not capitalising on it and they're cutting us up with their kicking when they take it down the ground.

Same MO as other games when we win clearances it never results in scores?

Billings playing a sweaping role is a good move, should have happened 3 years ago.

 

[Ricmel]

Suns first quarter win in 19 quarters!

 

[Saint12]

Christ they are missing some good players

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

Is Richo sacked or not?

 

[kernelT]

Beaten in the ruck!? You've got to be kidding, he's giving us an armchair ride out of the centre bounces and it's resulted in multiple clean clearances!

Umm, he is behind witts in hitouts and at one stage we had twice as many clearances than Billy had hitouts… tell me how that armchair ride works?

 

[Brains Trust66]

Good to see Longer has worked on getting more disposals while he has been out of the side lol. 1 kick in the first but apparently all that matters is amount of hitouts....... oh he got beaten there too lol.


Go Saints
