McCartin looks solid.

Could of good clinks early, good on him.

Crows look on, Saints not quiet physical enough to tag Sloane.

[Ethan Tremblay 30,822]

Has Jenkins ever kicked a goal from outside the goal square? 

[monoccular 17,413]

Saints looking pretty ordinary 

[Chook 15,012]

Wow. Playing Adelaide at Adelaide Oval looks tough. I can't see many teams making that journey and coming away with the points this year. 

 

[Guest]

This is thoroughly enjoyable so far.

The last spot or two in the eight will come down to percentage.  We have done so well to keep all our losses close this season.

The Saints might be having a game tonight that they can ill afford % wise.. nevermind the loss itself.

Edit - the game is still early days so anything can happen, but Crows do look ominous

Would be bloody tough to get him but gee wiz I hope our guys are right into it..

Is there illness in the Saints camp -- never seen so much fumbling.

Thank goodness I've worked out how my mute button works. So sick of 7's common taters. No wonder they have to pay the AFL so much for the TV rights. I'd demand that much too if I knew that my sport was going to be covered by commentary teams who are going to turn people off my sport in droves!

Yes Carlisle doesn't do much for the saints even if you ignore all the hype around him when they signed him up. Defeated on several occasions even though he's only playing on Crows 4th or 5th forward (Jenkins)

Sloane?

[What 18,810]

Saints getting a taste of life without Riewoldt. Hes held them together for years.

[Bombay Airconditioning 6,326]

Sloane has now had 7 touches, I'd say the tag is working.

They're 57 points behind, I'd say it isn't working.

Really? Clearly we look at football differently than.

Yep: you look at one individual matchup in isolation, and I look at the big picture.

No, I do see your point, but I think it's just a moot one if your team is getting thrashed.  We tagged him well too, but we also did a lot of other things well that night too, our pressure on the ball in general (through the middle and forward) meant their ball use was under pressure, rushed and in general, poor.  Their forwards had to push back a lot to help out, which meant when they did get it, their forays forward were disorganised.

I'd hardly be losing sleep over Sloane's tag if I were the Crows.  Footy is a team game, St Kilda's system as a team tonight sucks.  Given that they're being annihilated in every other aspect of the game, St Kilda ought to be questioning whether tagging one singular player is the best use of their midfield resources. 

[olisik 4,060]

Just read this on St Kilda big footy

 

The way McCartin is going I would take Jack Watts every day of the week. My gut feel is in underage footy he was just bigger than everyone else which is why he looked so good. Now against adults he has no tricks and no footy smarts. Whoever chose him instead of Pettraca should be shot.

You assume a lot about me, anyway too tired plus plane is about to take off....

Bombay out.
