Game Day Round 19, 2023: St.Kilda v North Melbourne

[George]

What’s the excuse this week?

I’m struggling to keep up with it.

A new one this thread: gameplan not Ross’s but was Harvey, Hayes and Enright.

At least Ross will be insightful in his press conference I guess (even though last week he simply threw the players under the bus - unheard of for coaches in modern sport).

Looking forward to the excuses this week, the usual ones are boring so hoping for something with a bit more spice.

Mulligan me, mulligan you, come and be a mulligan too!

We've kicked 1.12 since the 20 minute mark of the first quarter

 

[The Slug]

How did we go around a $1.15 chance hahaha

 

[Dard Ball Get]

Hate them all except Owens, Pou and Nas.

 

[Joffaboy]

Lyon and co have completely sucked the confidence out of this group.

They're a bunch of lost headless chooks

No swagger at all

No natural play

Yes... it's on the players too... skills are sh*t

But we are a shambles.

Coaching is sh*t

Lulz, always the coach. Hahahaha

I'm not a hill fan but this is complete nonsense. Took a hit to move the ball on.

Soft shit player

[Hayes4PM]

4.12 elite football

 

[Browny2Carlisle]

About 3 failed to score too lol

Cho was better than this

Congratulations Ratts - the sweetest victory of your coaching career.- well done mate.

He's had one other sweet one in an Elimination final against Essendon in 2011. A thumping that turned them to drugs to the amusement of supporters of 17 other teams......hahaha.

 

[saintbill]

Would be reasonably happy to fold at this point.

Unless we take a mark on the goal line or get a 50 we will not kick another goal.

What part of it's the players too are you struggling with?

 

[luca77]

Losing to Hawks, Suns and North. Scraping past Eagles.
At least mediocrity isn't a problem anymore.

 

[Saintos The ITK]

Rtb should stay out of the post match. Let Corey give the boys a serve. That will hurt.

 

[gringo2011]

at this point we have to rebuild this is insane

It will be 20 years of rebuilding by the time it's done.

 

[SaintsSeptember]

None. We are cooked. We weren't going anywhere with Ratts and we are just as horrible without. The list has been terrible for years and still has massive deficiencies. We are exposed with the injuries we have but the same s**t with two coaches shows that it's list predominantly but now we have another different s**t coaching set up.

The worst thing is that we are going nowhere and need a full rebuild but Lyon and SOS are going to be a disaster in a rebuild. Couldn't really get a worse set up.

Meanwhile Ratt's has the bombing into 50 , and its working. ( Mind you wrestling our best intercept defender to the ground off the play is kind of cheating ).

 

[Plugger35]

Our forward line is a complete shambles, no system at all. we are just bombing it in there at random and even when we get a shot for goal we miss.

 

[jwikked]

With finals now out of the question, I’d like Ross to drop the blokes that won’t be there next year. Gresham, Clark, Billings. Thanks for trying but best of luck in your future endeavors.

 

[Joffaboy]

What part of it's the players too are you struggling with?

The fact that it all has to do with the coaching.
What a deluded joke.

Ridiculous comment. He's an inside mid forced to play wing.

When he gets a game in his best position it's usually nullifying and with 60% game time.

If he had the balls to drop Steele and give him a shot as the man then we'd know about him
