Game Day Round 17, 2023: St.Kilda v Melbourne *STEELE 150TH*

[tristenlvm]

If our midfield can actually get clean clearances this week, then it would be good to deliver the ball low into the forward half and resist bloody directionless bombing, as Gawn will park himself down there. Might give King half a chance. Need to also lock down on the Demon fast outside running up the wings. Can't see us kicking a big enough score sadly.

King seems to ask for it on his head, needs to learn to lead up

 

[sauce_head]

Heading in now. Pumped! Hope we turn up and that we also win the Ashes tonight. Too much to ask for?!

 

[EddieMurphy]

Good teams have the class to work through that pressure, and force the other teams heads to drop. Pressure isn't a one team only thing, you can impact it.

Yeh, we allowed that pressure, no other team gave that to the Eagles.

 

[Saintos The ITK]

Seb will be a late out.

 

[wolfpac13]

If you're going tonight (I am), PLEASE make some noise.

We are all way too quiet and reserved and it makes such a difference when we're all up and about.

 

[Diehard Saint]

Seb will be a late out.

Clark in?

 

[Saintos The ITK]

Clark in?

I reckon
What a midfield shake up
We need it too

 

[Saints43]

Kozy, Brown, Gus and Trac were the ones who got a handle of us last time we played, they’re still in the team for tonights game.
Gawn and Grundy are going to give us some grief as well as Lever and May.
Its hard to see us winning this but Jones and Billings in might give us some spark.
Im really hoping we continue with how we played in the second half of the WC game.

I'm hoping Billings & Jones have those great first-game-back matches players often have.

 

[The Jack]

King’s in for a tough night. Hopefully he can impact somehow. Even if May beats him I want to see second efforts and positive body language.

5 or 6 goals would also be nice.

 

[botts]

Clark in?

Probably Byrnes. Clarke hasn’t played in 6 weeks

 

[Saintos The ITK]

King’s in for a tough night. Hopefully he can impact somehow. Even if May beats him I want to see second efforts and positive body language.

5 or 6 goals would also be nice.

Just use him as a decoy mainly and hit him up when he’s free.
Use the two the’s, Hammer and Pou

 

[AirWinmar]

Hope the boys are more fired up than this thread. Fire up team. Sainters will be marching in tonight!!

Stones Ginger for all

 

[AirWinmar]

Hope Steele is back closer to his best tonight. Think Billings will be looking good, but you probably won't notice his 20-25 touches.

Good to see Jones back in. Get some pace in the midfield.

Please don't kick it to May and Lever 75 times tonight!!

Howard's going to need to stick closer than 5 meters behind Brown tonight or he may kick a bag

Mount Gay all the way

King has to make a contest and not allow the Dee backs to mark uncontested. Once the ball is on the ground anything can happen.

 

[seasonedsainter]

Think Clark will be sub, if Seb goes out as some at predicting, Byrne's to replace.

 

[Saintos The ITK]

Mount Gay all the way

I’ll try anything twice.

Dry July, am I right?

Just went and bought a bottle of scotch. I'll have to drink for all those brave soldiers who've stepped off the booze train for the month.

 

[Holy Hunter Clark]

Dry July, am I right?

There's a nice bottle of Bests Bin 0 Shiraz with my name on it tonight, a good way to celebrate/drown my sorrows.

Has it been reported that Ross is out?

 

[George]

Has it been reported that Ross is out?

He's playing.

Byrnes sub

 

[Drop Kick]

I'm confident about tonight's game, confident we'll fold, resulting in a spanking. Ross will then front the after match press conference dressed as
the Riddler, and bamboozle the media throng with bulldust.

 

[god_of_the_universe]

First 5 rounds of the season we took on the game and rarely went with the bomb kick down the line.

Need to go back to that or there intercept markers will absolutely towel us up.

I've battled traffic and shit weather to get to the ground, we better turn up to play

I caved. 12 pure blondes.

And might even get on the beers later too
