The most frustrating thing about the Roos tenure is that we keep getting fools made of us by teams that we should beat.

Billings, Weller, Hickey. Absolute A-graders.

Yeah. They've got stars like Acres, Newnes, Dempster, Seb Ross. We can't compete against that.

NO!!!! Whatever it is, it's not tiredness. Stupidity gets my vote.

We need a game-day tactician on the coaching panel.

Again, they have a system at stoppages. We have British Bulldogs

We have no system at stoppages. Gawn just hits it & 3 dive on the ball. That's not a system. Every other team has a system. One goes for the ball, the other two wait for the give. Dumb. This is a team we should beat every time.

When they tackle, they hold us to the ground once we've got rid of the ball so we can't get to the next contest. We give them a friendly brush over the shoulder and stand aside so they get to the next contest. That's not "better". That's just less DUMB.

The only way they're better than us is a 10-point IQ advantage per player. And Watts prob has an IQ of 150 so it says a lot for the dumbness of the rest

Now I see why we have to tackle with three players. One player by themselves can't bring down a small dog!!

They know how to nullify us. We are unique in the AFL in having no clue how to nullify them. Even Essendon can do it. We have 3 into every contest. They have one, so if they win it, they have two spare on the outside. We make them look like champions. They're simply not as good as we make them look. It would be like them vacating the corridor and letting us run it up the corridor the whole game. But they're smarter than that; we're just NOT. They're smarter, not better.

Again, we don't have a midfield. We have a collection of midfielders.

N. Jones is a witches hat

They don't man up. It's a zone defence! Still no excuse for letting someone run free. We are caught ball chasing.

We make them look better than Hawthorn. Again, every other team has figured them out. We haven't.

No it's not. The first quarter was their best against our best. They simply know how to nullify our game. We don't have a clue, and don't learn anything about them from one game to the next. Stop them getting it on the outside, and when they do get it on the outside we need to close them down further up the ground. If we don't, we may not get another goal.

YES!!! Finally someone's noticed it! They delay bringing the interchange on until they can influence the play, so they don't have an opponent. We still haven't caught on. They know how to beat us. We don't have a clue how to beat them. Most other sides know how to beat them. We lose our 'shape' and play to their strengths. We are a dumb club.

You don't get it. We have everyone going for the ball at the stoppage, so if they get it to the outside, they outnumber us 2 to 1. We need to just keep letting them get it to the outside, like we have every other time we play them, and they'll kill us. It's stupid to have 3 going for the tackle, because if the ball comes free, again, they outnumber us. And Hickey doesn't beat Gawn, but he sure can nullify him. Our midfield is so much easier to beat than theirs.

Again, we just fail to cover the outside. When they get it on the outside, we just watch them go. Nobody downfield seems to be able to see them coming. After all this time, we still haven't worked out how to play them. Every other f'ing side has, we haven't. Dumb dumb dumb dumb footy.

Now Roos is either gonna figure this out or we'll get smashed. Bet he doesn't!!

Exactly like every other time we play them. If they get it on the outside, we're stuffed.

Is he playing?

What I like is that it's our second string, not our prime movers, who are doing well. Kent, Harmes, Tracc, M Jones

What, because Saints supporters are booing? You're clearly struggling to find more negative things to post.

No it's not!!
