Ready for tomorrow night.
Derksen robbed, terrible umpiring decision.
Kemp kicks it where he ran!
F#%$ Kemp
Kemp, just need the lad to do the basics right, he can win plenty of footy, that's 90% of the job, the last bit can be fixed.
Gah feel like we wasted a lot of opportunities then!
Can we get more shots of Ross and also the aints bench, while the play is live? It’s really adding a new dimension to the game for me. Bloody ridiculous
Nas off helps.
Tdk sore
Liam ryan sore.
Id like us to test jacks shoulder a bit.
Stockers another one who needs some physical attention.
Love the boys beating up on TDK.
True, but the real test is what "we do" when Ross the Boss flips to Plan B due to the NWM loss, and one thing is certain, Ross the Boss will have a Plan B.
Personally, the waste is not as big of a problem if we keep winning the footy in that manner. We panicked a bit, we were rushing a bit in F50, we probably just need a bit more from the cooler heads and we should be OK.
I thought the injury was self-inflicted.
How good is Pitto dominating TDK. ;D
Pretty much everybody saw Ryan coming except our D50 crew.
Not sure Haynes on Ryan is the right matchup. ::)
Wanganeen Milera and Hill injured.
TDK and Ryan broken.
We should smash them from here
What an absolute gem of a kick by Dean to Frankie to set up McG. Wow
Bizarre miss by Gov, usually better at range than in close, Evans is a class above, great to have him showing Byrne the ropes.
I said last week that it was the perfect storm for us.
Everything clicked at once.
This week, everything is working for us from St. Kildas point of view.....but we are our own worst enemies thus far.
Terrible in front of goal so far. Should have the game out of reach by now.
Need to kill them early, because they won't die off late.
We should wear them down.
Hayward plays like he has a point to prove, Florent is getting better every week, I'm starting to think we did the better of that deal.
Florent wasn't part of the deal.
I suppose, but I don't know, I wasn't in the room about how it all went down. All I know is we ended up with two Swans who look like they are well above average and playing the game with intent.
Florent was a separate trade.
Yes both are playing very well now.
We should, but i don't want to leave it to that.
I want to kill them early....and since i wrote that, we have been. So lets keep it up.
Put it beyond doubt before 3/4 time.
Then start focussing on the dogs next week.
Frustrating to let them have that goal before half time!
And really annoyed at the basic goals not being kicked by us. So so frustrating.
Didn’t need that goal
But, still should go on to bury these blokes, we owe them a lot of pain
The story, of course, will be the poor aints injuries. But really, nas is off, but the others are just sore, and a couple of them came in sore
Ross will try to clog it up even more in the 2nd half, but we keep working hard and take our chances and we give them a drubbing we have owed them for a long time
Watch the wide shot replay, no one was on him at any stage. Wandered in from about 25 out, into the goal square, without a blue anywhere near him
Is Tom the only bloke to ever go to StKilda and get LESS blonde? Surely Micky Roberts doesn’t approve. Barks will be looking down shaking his head
Yes, to me it's about the visible intent and intensity of contest, they look like blokes who aren't satisfied, they look hungry.
I can't say other than Walsh and Cripps that we've seen much of that hunger over the last 10 or 15 years.
I don't get booing SoJ, he's not a villain type, it's leaving a sour taste.
If they want to boo somebody, boo a villain, boo SoS!
If they are booing SoJ as a proxy for SoS, give it up, it's missed the mark, and it will only become a motivation for The Aints!
Must be because we are racist. Its the only logical conclusion.
Ross the Boss is going to use Hill and Ryan around the footy.
What a lovely change. The other side comes out and kicks points then we go down and kick a goal. That's usually us.
Imagine if we had Lij Hollands just floating about with his quality … oooof what could’ve been
Mcgovern is killing me
Last time he was floating around it was against Collingwood and he couldn't get a touch.
He's done all the floating he's ever going to do.....and we don't need him.
He was top5 players for us in those first 7 or so rounds
....and how was our form at that time?
Top 5 of $h!t, is still $h!t.
Really would've liked that Young shot to go through.
That would've been the final nail in the coffin i reckon.
Look I won’t dwell on it as his career is unfortunately no more - but you’re foolish to infer he wouldn’t add a nice quality touch to this side.
Houlihan-esque in his reading of the game IMO
Pitto be asking for a payrise after tonight.
The other 2 rucks on the ground would be averaging 1.5mil a year between them.
He'd be on a third of that and out doing them both.
That's what I thought. With our misses the game could have been long done.
Frankie is doing his roll and doing it better than he did.
We don't need him.
He has given them a bath. Has Tom touched the footy tonight?
2 men down, we should be way more in front. Why am I nervous?
He left for money, plain and simple. Also seemed to be a bit of a cancer on the culture of the joint. Any other player, with a different surname, would definitely be copping it in that situation
Frankie evans.
Anyone who ever said a bad word about you should wash their mouth out with soap. Has been superb.
Cripps beating tdk in the ruck is a thing of beauty.
Time to cancel your september holidays
Those two late misses by young could be quite costly. Percentage is important here.
By my quick calculations, if we kick 3 more goals, our %'s would be equal.
Because it's Carlton....haha.
With a 5 man bench, 2 down doesn't hurt as much as it used to. On the other hand, one bloke they did lose hurts.
Late in the qtr, when the game's done you can bet on a couple of junk timer from the losing side. Hope not though.
Reality is, % being equal won't matter.
For saints to make it, they would need to win both (and would increase their % in the process)
and
We would have to lose both (and lose % in the process)
So starting equal means nothing because they would jump us in % if the games go their way.
We need to get in front of them so its 2 games AND a fair whack of %.
....at this stage, its not going to happen.
Game is over, but we are still hunting them.
>:D
In the 80's we'd be on the outer sinking a can in celebration with an early, drunken rendition of the song.
Come 2026.............still be 7 goals up with 7 minutes to go and still $hitting our pants...haha
It would be all over 5mins into the premiership quarter. What did parko say - kick the first one of the 3rd q and then let the Heatly stand do the rest
Which was why it was contrast with TDK who hardly copped a boo relative to SoJ.
Money is money, they are professionals not fans.
