well what I saw on Sat night was a sure mirror image of what i saw happen at AMMI this time last year to Port!
Damn I didn't see any Saints footy!
well I hope the boys bring there A game this weekend for the Friday night game with the Dogs!
GO SAINTS
hmm - I saw a different game tonight.
It was still played between Western Bulldogs and St Kilda, but it was such a dull affair, killing time with short handballs and kicks back to a free mate
I thought it was an intriguing display of battle chess that Ross Lyon eventually won. Go the 4 points! Go the Sainters!
Are you serious? You must be the most one-eyed supporter in the world.
That as well as the Saints game last week was one of the worst games of footy ever, if St Kilda continue to play that brand of footy they will lose a few games imo.
It keeps their opponents in the game and while they got lucky this week last week they paid the price.
I would be surprised and disappointed if they won a flag playing that style of football. I for one will be going for any side that plays St Kilda in the GF if St Kilda make it, that style of footy doesn't deserve to win a flag imo.
I certainly won't be watching too many more Saints games either.
... although I had tipped the Saints by 9
St Kilda are like watching grass grow. Every time the Dogs went forward it just turned into every St Kilda player being behind the halfway mark and having about 5 free men in their defensive 50. This caused the Dogs to chip the ball around and not go up the guts.
I didn't watch last night's game, but the way you described it sounds exactly like the style of play the Swans used in 2005 and 2006. Very frustrating to watch.
Speaking of disappointing, how pathetic were Hawthorn last night. That is why I rate us a borderline finals team at best.
Our backline is a joke, Murphy, Guerra, Shoenmakers all turn the ball over with amazing ease and regularity. Franklin & Roughead are nowhere near the players they were 2 years ago, neither of them work hard enough imo - and what is the go with Rougheads kicking.
If it wasn't for Hodge, Mitchel & maybe Rioli we would be a bottom 4 side imo.
In short we suck.

Hear hear!
That game on Friday night was embarrassing for the AFL and embarrassing for all Saints supporters. Frankly, if I was a Saints supporter and had that crap served up to me every week, I would boycott. Seven (7)! scording shots in three and a bit quarters of footy at Etihad is absolutely atrocious.

Thank goodness my team is one of the most exciting, highest scoring sides in recent history AND wins games as well. At least I can go to matches and cheer goals.
By any reckoning, last years' grand final was a win for the game itself and for supporters of good football everywhere. If the Saints had won, can you imagine all the other clubs this year trying to copy them? For the football viewing public, it would have been a tragedy of epic proportions.
The only good news (besides the lack of a flag) is that like the Swans of a few years ago and "Clarko's Cluster" of 2008, teams will sooner or later work you out and force Lyon and co to change the gameplan.
Rinse & repeat.
We are without a doubt a bottom 4 side atm, I think we would struggle to beat Richmond on current form. Too many of our players don't deserve to be playing AFL football on current form imo, and even worse too many of them look like they aren't interested in playing AFL football.
Big deal, the game was an arm wrestle and the better team snatched it. come on 4 weeks ago the saints had 7 or more goals in their opening term. short memory. the game to the Dockers was a shoot out. please two games and the saints are playing the worst football? last year we played the best football ever seen.
I guess the pies.
crap, it was wet and a massive struggle for both teams. most of last year the saints shot through the corridor to the horror of most opponents. again short memory.
The current game plan is due to one massive fact, we're missing our key forward. or is that not an issue. the whole game plan has had to change. think about it.
Basicly an idiot post on a many points.
Rinse & repeat.
