Game Day Round 9, 2023: Adelaide v St.Kilda *SINCLAIR 150TH*

[sunny3193]

We are being killed in the midfield and half back. Crows are controlling the tempo of this game, spread us wide and then open us up with their speed and skill.

Disagree, our skills is making this borderline unwatchable. The umpires have gifted them some goals, but even if we had them in our pocket, our skills are our failing point.

We just aren't controlled with the ball. They're smothering us.

That’s in our control though. The umpiring isn’t and that’s the part I find unwatchable.

God our half backs and mids getting sucked in. Missed tackles. Shocking disposals, players falling over. Some gross umpiring conceding us two goals.

This one's been coming for a few weeks now.
Hope we can get some momentum our way to try and get some belief. This week doesn't really matter but we need to make the next 3 wins and don't want to be down on confidence.

Another audit incoming lol

 

[triggering bro]

Game over. Prefer not to watch us get flogged without a whimper. That’s enough footy for me for the weekend.

It's the mids who are our main problem, they really just shit themselves and stop playing our game when things get a bit hard. They start just bombing it onto the boot and giving panic handballs. And they stop running to support because they're all collapsing into the contest worried that their mate won't win it.

Only just able to tune in now at qtr time after seeing parents...

I wish i was surprised but its in Adelaide i guess lol

Since Membrey came back?

Membrey shouldn't be in the side at the moment, he's a liability. Steele too. Sinclair should be playing in the middle.

 

[PoppedCorn]

Anyone who can't see we need a tap ruck and an A grade mid with speed is kidding themselves

 

[St Kilda Death]

We will still win!

 

[gringo2011]

They've kicked 2 from his mistakes. I don't know how much I want him touching it if that's the case.

He's spudding it up but some didn't turn up. They are all shit.

Something i have noticed that hasn't changed this year is our ability to get pushed around by better teams. I am talking physically here. The intent from the crows has been first rate to bump,, harass, push etc

This club lacks real men, hard nuts to set the other team straight.

Anyone remember us the night Riewoldt did his collarbone against Brisbane. Very similar our inability to physically match the other team.

All mental.

lack of star power in our midfield is becoming obvious weekly. I’m not sure if a fully fit Steele can even be that guy for us.

We've been weak in the midfield for the last month. We've been saved in part by the backline and forward line. Was going to give eventually.

It’s awful to watch live too if that helps. Howard having a shocker, soft shit

This is where Ross needs to prove his worth and get these sorts of efforts out of the club. ******* unacceptable

I think the likes of Owen, Phillipou, King, Windhager will be the ones who change the culture of Richo era

Nas tackled before he gets the ball midair- HTB
Keays takes on 3 and drops the ball- play on.

The Naz holding the ball was absolutely absurd. Zero prior opporunity one arm pinged and did not at any point dipose of it incorrectly. What a bunch of numpties. Hate these overated crow hacks.

 

[RBW_007]

We aren't losing because of the umpiring but it certainly isn't helping.

 

[Browny2Carlisle]

Can we drop Seb mid game

Is Membrey playing? Haven't seen him once

To be brutlly honest, the Howard contest the ball just bounced thr wrong way.

Haven't been at a saints game at AO like this for a few years now . Interesting to see what RTB can pull out of his bag.

 

[sunny3193]

BTW: crowd not as big as I expected. None of the stands are full, maybe 3/4?
Mothers Day I guess.

Steel, Ross, Crouch is not a premiership midfield

That's not going to change
