Imagine if Sicily was playing

 

[denisp]

Bottom 4 team. That’s our reality

I think we all see that - so do the coaches - hopeless in the guts

 

[crinkoes]

Can’t wait for that to be 50m consistently every single time. Should increase the average score on a match by 30 points.

That was as clear a 50m penalty as you get. Absolutely embarrassing brain implosion from Wilkie

 

[Jade Buddha]

We stand for nothing. Our MO is dunno what we are doing

 

[GTrains Mullet]

We’re a bottom 4 team.

Forward and mids are uncompetitive, stagnant and poorly coached.

Defence is ok but prone to brain fades and coughing up goals

 

[Saintos The ITK]

Pick two alert

 

[Ads734]

A fifty right on the siren, thankfully it didn't cost us a goal.

It was a bullshit fifty so at least it got what it deserved but we still deserve to be behind with how badly we are playing.

Honestly we don’t deserve to be behind. We can’t effing kick straight. We dominated that quarter.

 

[sauce_head]

We deserve to be bottom 4, absolutely hopeless football team.

I think we are tanking via flooding with kids. Just consider that for a minute. Maybe this is clever stuff?!

 

[Veer Right]

Coaching box fail today

To passive
Forwards are at sea
Hayes sub was a mistake
Battle forward is nice for 2 seconds but then we lose a key defender who we need back there

Also F Harvey off this week and find a real forwards coach

 

[Jade Buddha]

I think we all see that - so do the coaches - hopeless in the guts

But nothing changes

 

[Saintbloke]

Who is going to lead the way for the Saints? Midfield getting flogged comprehensively, getting flogged around the packs, forwards playing from behind, defence playing too far off their man and too slow. I would have Wilson on the ball this quarter at least. Owens looks like a duck out of water in the midfield

 

[jaza2003]

Ross's press conference

"Oh well I actually though we were pretty good, just lacked......."

 

[mad-saint-guy]

Alright we genuinely suck. Hawthorn are also crap but at least they have a crack and are brave with their ball movement. Even if we pull a win out of our arse here this is a terrible showing

 

[my name was taken]

What a rabble... any chance we can get a hand-pass coach?

Missed the ball with the fist plenty of times today and those have generally ended better than the ones that did connect. Woeful.

 

[Michael Scarn]

Looking like an early first round selection in the draft this year!

You know we'll win when it doesn't matter and get ourselves up to 11th by the end of the year

 

[EddieMurphy]

The Team Booster "Not a bad effort, we are tracking nicely" types will be out posting in the autopsy thread again.

 

[denisp]

Does Owens need a spell??

Who cares

 

[StFly]

What a rabble... any chance we can get a hand-pass coach?

+10 goal benefit.

North get draft picks, we get +10 goals every match for the rest of existence, sounds fair.

 

[NasiahToKing]

We are cooked.

 

[sauce_head]

That was as clear a 50m penalty as you get. Absolutely embarrassing brain implosion from Wilkie

Only saw on replay as I walked out of the room because there was nothing left to watch in the quarter. Maybe you are right.

 

[Premium]

A fifty right on the siren, thankfully it didn't cost us a goal.

It was a bullshit fifty so at least it got what it deserved but we still deserve to be behind with how badly we are playing.

We need 3 goals to get in front - and we are lucky to kick that in 3 quarters - be surprised if we win this.

 

[Diehard Saint]

So I guess we’ll be getting our top 5 midfielder afterall then.

 

[StCicatriz]

Midfield is utterly pathetic.

This so called running ability hasn't meant shit. Continually out numbered at the contest.

Absolutely zero interest in winning a hard ball or doing anything physical.

They want an uncontested kick mark run corral game.

We'll be competitive and not outright shit but we are going no where fast.

 

[Saintos The ITK]

Who are we after at pick two?
Must be someone special.

 

[austinnn]

I don't know why I'm surprised by our ineptitude after so many years following this joke club, but I am genuinely surprised and disappointed.

Half arsed efforts, strange set up, and always the same blind kicking and weak attempts to mark.
