I’m going to give benefit of the doubt and put it down to the unpredictable conditions. Our ball movement has been pretty good. We’re dominating play and are not getting a fair run from the umps. They’ve missed some howlers and given them some really soft ones that haven’t been reciprocated at the other end.

The 2nds are out on the middle of the pitch. KFW, Howes, Woey, Sestan, Burgoyne (44?) and few Casey players as they don’t have numbers on their backs.

Overwhelmingly favoring the end we were kicking to in the 2nd Period. Ball dropping very short the other way. Very swirly.

End of 2nd Period Dees 8.6.54 Saints 2.3.15

Trac from downtown on the siren.

Lever’s disposal has been poor.

Umpiring is one sided and atrocious.

Wind is very strong.

Trac and Max starting in the forward line.

Set shot goal kicking 😱

Based on the cheer squad flags behind the goals the Saints have a massive advantage.

Melksham (calf) & Dunstan (hamstring) also in the stands.

Sack the goal kicking coach.

Jed Adams (with his knee bandaged), Disco Turner & Sestan also in civvies in the stands.

So Trac’s goal kicking hasn’t improved.

Pig, Woey & Howes in their civvies in the stands as is Fritta and Salo.

Looks like we are starting with a strong lineup.

Judd McVee is with the best 23

JVR & Jordon wearing the indigenous warm up guernsey. Looks like they are the “subs” for want of a better word for the best 23 lineup.

Saints on the field and they’re playing their song.

I imagine we’ll start best 22/23 available and progressively rest certain players. Will be skeleton crew by games end.

The ground looks like it’s in great nick.

All the side streets around Linton St are chockers. I had to walk about 5 minutes but I imagine it will get worse.

If you’re coming to Moorabbin and driving here then be prepared to park a mile away from the ground. Also bring an ice vest.

That's precious. In the past we've been shunted all around the country in the preseason and they have the gall to call the shots.
