Oh well, one thing we never seem to run out of are excuses. Queue the usual ones after today.

Hope we kick up a stink about playing our home game at St Kildas HOME GROUND. Ffs 

Stop making excuses. We haven't brought the required work rate and we've been unclean with our ball handling and decision making all game.

Anyone comparing Petracca to Toumpas is a [censored] idiot. 

The coaching and defending has been abysmal. How many times will white jumpers be free and walk the ball into goal? This is reminiscent of 2013.

St Kilda's strength is our weakness, but it is like none of the coaching staff or players were aware of it. Pretty weak effort.

Once again we can't live up to the flucking hype.  No doubt pencilled in a win just like Essendon.

Too many on here drink their own bath water and think we are better than we are.  

We needed fresh legs on a short week but no. 

We we needed to change and man up on Reiwoldt but no. 

We needed a sweeper to stop their loose man up forwarding every single 50 entry but no. 

Poor play and poor coaching and selecting.

This is a massive test for us. 5 day break, ground we don't like against an opponent who knows they can beat us. Will our players respond? Everything I know about this club says they won't. Is this "New Melbourne" real, or just a mirage. 

Yeah...

Well I've freed myself of an expectation of a win, which is a relief. Hopefully we can at least restore a little bit of respect. 

What a bitter disappointment. 

Did you free yourself midway through the second or at the start of the third?

Terrible ground.

Terrible ticketing

same f. Wittery from the umpires.

paul Roos on 1.5mill as I watch Riewoldt run rampant as H and Tmac point at each other.

Dunn is selfish,useless ,fat and finished.

Reiwoldt again.FMD

our backs are makeshift,reactive and have no aerial skill.

I keep falling for it again and again and again.. The Dee's make us all look stupid with these efforts. No wonder we get so fired up.

Going to get drunk.

Beat you. Started at 1/2 time

If only the supporters hadn't thought we might win.

Two things stand out,

1.  Leg speed.   Keep thinking of lethal Mathews after the bombers game saying any side with good leg speed would beat or trouble Dee's.

2. Coaching.   Everyone could see 3rd quarter coming, but nothing changed after half time -  look clueless to clog up and defend saints fwd line,

Lumumbe is the defintiion of a front runner, horrible when we're horrible, good when we're good.

That would have totally fixed everything! 52 years and it's been the supporters' fault all this time!

We are playing st kilda, not Hawthorn, it's a disgraceful performance, not even competitive

St. Kilda would have beaten Hawthorn but for a disgraceful incorrect disposal decision at the end of the game.

Every  team, even Essendon and Carlton have to be taken as seriously as Vladimir Putin

We are showing no aggression at all. Being ragdolled all over the ground. Unbelievable.

Next week will show us up for what we really are as a team. Im tipping Suns by 60+ in a canter.

Lumumba is barely serviceable when we're good.

Watch the replay of Seb Ross v TMac on the boundary just then....

OMG!

Weak as P155

3 touches for Dean Kent.

Watching on & amazed at how posters can single out players amongst an entire team of sleepwalkers. Geniuses 

Pathetic McDonald. Still yet to lay a bloody tackle

 

Thank god for Jogan: Jones and Hogan.
