Autopsy Round 5, 2019: Melbourne v St.Kilda

[aussierulesrules]

Our last 40 minutes was pretty garbage after we had them absolutely on the ropes, so we still need to work on fully putting teams away, but hopefully that will come.

PS- How bloody good is Wilkie! Literally looking better and better by the quarter I reckon. Confidence seems to be going through the roof!

 

[Verdun]

4 wins for the year?

PURPLE where are ya? Thats right your bs does not matter one iota

Kent, Wilkie , Membrey

BILLINGS, Acres and Gresham in the middle

You good thing

 

[Fruity Boots]

Every week opponents write us off before the game even starts. What a win, bring on the crows.

Our nemesis!

 

[Big 0]

Our defence is ridiculous.

 

[wolfpup]

well how about that?

seems like we are on the up?

 

[joop]

Whos rebuild is going better???!?!

 

[CoZi36]

Thanks for the distraction from doing my nursing assignment by putting on a good show on my iPad, Saints. Enjoy the win and keep them coming.

 

[StKing11]

Billings is now elite - 5 games with a average of 28 touches - huge

Lmao

 

[Hubnester]

Jack Billings lost me $190, immediately after Jack Steele's 20th touch made me think I had my multi.

Oof that's rough, least we still had something to celebrate. If we'd lost I'd have $0 and not even a victory to be happy about.

Was at the game

We are awesome, screw whatveveryone says the way we play gives me a stiffy, legit tacklin, ball movement, poise... this is a good team.

 

[George]

The roar when JB slotted that goal....that is 10 years of frustration coming out....GO THE SAINTS!!

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

Well that was enjoyable.

 

[Quixote]

Going for a run. Better not wear the compression pants the way things are going here!!!

 

[StKing11]

Nice of Melbourne to play their old mate Kent into form, much appreciated guys.

For real though a lot of us wanted him dropped and he was super today, well done!

No wonder he's smiling with a dong that size!

 

[King_Steele]

Over the ****ing moon!

Just loveeee the defence & team spirit!

Let’s enjoy this win for a few days, Carn Saints!

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

The roar when JB slotted that goal....that is 10 years of frustration coming out....GO THE SAINTS!!

I liked how the entire team was huddling waiting for it then they all went towards him

 

[PoppedCorn]

Going for a run. Better not wear the compression pants the way things are going here!!!

**** it
Get it out and tie a saints flag on it

 

[Crusty Undies]

Our transition in that third quarter looked on another level! We could do literally no wrong and were linking up perfectly, hitting targets cleanly, taking marks cleanly and outworking every direct opponent!

 

[D2D3]

Billings slamming home that final goal!

Gotta love it!!

 

[Lightsxo]

LIDS ****ING OFF

GO SAINTS

 

[austinnn]

That was expected, but awesome just the same!

Sadly I missed the 3rd quarter because life got in the way, but watched most of the first half. Real team performance. Just as predicted, after sone futile resistance, Melbourne eventually melted. If only all my footy predictions were so precise.

Always a pleasure to hear McGuire commentate too, not a huge fan of the guy but he knows his footy and after Cometi, he's probably the best commercial media commentator around. The only thing I'd say against his work today is that he laid it on a bit thick with the "Saints fans you'll want to watch this again after the match" comment like this is a grand final for us.

Eddie, you know what us beating Melbourne is?

Business.
As.
Usual.

So yes, we're back, folks! Get on board.

People might criticise us for segregation but as far as the bandwagon goes, blacks and whites sit where they want but purples at the the back of the bus.

Holy shit that was f*cking amazing. I didn't think it would go like that....I'm beginning to believe.
