  1. Liking the pressure and cont possession wins. Like Frost running hard at the ball. Jeffy is a little beauty. Matt Jones tackling well. Desperately need to keep up the intensity.
  2. But we lost to the Hawks in the wet by only 3 goals???
  3. Ah yes, dc and society ladies. As the say, love is like frying bacon naked, you know it's going to hurt, but you don't know where or when.
  4. Cut back on the booze when you're posting mate
  5. I thought your fondest memory would've been watching the founding fathers scribe the laws of the game
  6. A young guy, lets call him Biffo, was hired for the construction site, and the foreman thought he'd better keep an eye on him, he didn't look all that bright. As the morning's work went on, he noticed that about half the time, when the fellow took a nail out of his pouch, he'd throw it on the ground with a frustrated look. Interested, the foreman picked up a few of the nails the guy had thrown away...they were fine, nothing wrong with them. So he said, "Why are you throwing away half of your nails?" And the young guy said, "The heads are on the wrong end!" The foreman said, "You idiot, just save them for the other side of the house!"
  7. Get your hand off it mate, we are no chance!
  8. $700k for a player who struggles to kick straight is hilarious!
  9. Or our moral compass getting 6 months in the cooler?
  10. IMO St Kilda are a much better team than us based upon yesterday's game, upon the StK game earlier in the year, upon round 17 last year at the MCG and in fact upon every H&A game we've played them since 2002. I'll agree to disagree upon how much better than us they are. I certainly agree we need to increase our talent depth and would like to see Prestia (pending knee medical) and Hibbert (pending bull horn punctures) at the Dees in 2017. This will be a very important trade/draft period for us.
  11. Of course we have no idea what would have happened on a different path to reality. Any Saints supporter would be saying "we smashed them for the majority of the game, they were only in it at 3/4 time because of our inaccuracy, and we should've won by more" Their kicking at goal was poor and not reflective of how better they played IMO, so yes, I believe they should've won by more.
  12. The margin was what it was because that's the score that was kicked and that's what happened on the day. Yes. The point I made is that I consider St K to be a better team than the score indicated and that they are currently a much better team than us. The fact they missed so many easy goals is one example of how the margin flattered us and they should've won by more. We missed some, but nowhere near their numbers. Their game atm is superior to ours and are about a 10 goal better team IMO. Do I deny that St K won by 6 goals? No. Do I think they are a better team and should've won by more? Yes.
  13. Understand your frustration AW but I think you've put a lot of words into my mouth which I did not say. I said the margin flattered us because they missed a lot of easy shots and should've beaten us by more. Which part of that is untrue? They kicked 20 behinds to our 8, many of those 20 were ridiculously easy, I stopped counting after 8. The bolded bits I did not say, the rest is a rant of understandable frustration.
  14. Agreed. But go through this thread if you want a laugh and there's probably still people who need to watch him play another shocker to be convinced.
  15. One more game like yesterday's and he's done. Horrid game.
  16. If you think the Saints shouldn't be a 6 goal better team than us, you are correct. They are more like a 10 goal better team. 35 scoring shots to 19. The margin flattered us. Just watched the game again and clearly they should've won by 10-12.
  17. Not the point either. A selection failures thread can include discussion about in form Casey players surely.
