Trac having a good game

Here comes M-M-M-M-M-embrey!

Cripps has quickly overtaken him unfortunately.

The Saints smashed us that quarter. People attacking our defensive setup but if not for your backline we'd be 5-6 goals down.

Hahahaha. On cue. Bruce and then Membrey with uncontested marks inside 50 within a minute. Thankfully Membrey missed.

SPUD WATCH: Bruce with 2.0 from 3 touches.

ANB just gets in the way.

It is [censored] infuriating. We give a free kick away on our attacking 50 and we are so pushed up that the Saints take 2 kicks and 5 seconds to be having a shot on goal. Richo was laying into us. Our defensive awareness forward of centre is getting progressively worse and has been an issue throughout Goodwin's reign.

This is a team of a coach killers. fmd.

Saints have 6 shots from 7 inside 50s for 4 scores.

I am convinced most of this team has never played at AFL level before. Horrid.

I feel the Saints are putting it to the top of the square in purpose. They're waiting for us to stuff it up.

Goal No.1 for Bruce.

That interview with Viney...my god. He does not want to be there. If body language was any indication we are going to get pumped tonight.

Well, I mean, isn't it?

Pulled out at the last second today. Really have no urgency or desire to attend the final few matches. Will be watching from home. But I've been to 8 matches this year and seen only 1 win (vs Carlton). Done for the year.

don't make me vomit.

[censored] it. Straight swap. Pyke for Goodwin. Get it done.

Fagan is coaching out of his skull atm. You just knew he would get them going at some stage. Even early last year. What did they start, was it 1-12 at one point? Unbelievable. I think they may even finish on top.

yeah Roos isn't coming back to Melbourne lol

We may well be a game and % locked into 17th.

Maybe.. but the engine room for this style has played most of the year. We still badly need outside pace, a true line breaker, and some small forwards. We really should be throwing the house at both Hill and Langdon.

Collingwood board on Bigfooty is in meltdown atm. There is a huge disconnect between Grundy and their mids atm. They are quite literally struggling in the same areas we are.

Media and bookies seem to be of the general consensus that we're better than our record suggests. We were as short as $2.10 against the Eagles last week. The Saints were further odds out against the Bulldogs. It's been the same each week. That said the sharks will be circling if we lose this week.

We were hyped up all pre season. The scrutiny didn't really appear until after the Brisbane loss but there's been heaps of coverage in the past month. What do you expect? I trust a loss this week will up the pressure gauge. If we don't win again for the year then the media will be licking it lips for the first month of 2020. They'll have Goodwin in their sights. That will be there regardless but if we can notch 8-9 wins for the year it'll be a solid end to the year. And it would give Goodwin an extra month. If he goes 0-7 to end the season, he'll be first on the inevitable "coaches under most pressure" lists.
