Wow Robbo, you're a mastermind in working that one out.

Out of the Melb, Coll and Geel 3 way trade collingwood are miles in front. Varcoe has been sensational this year.

I think Hirdy is daring them to sack him just like Malthouse did.

Ahh Etihad. A place where dreams are crushed and wallets are emptied.

Robbo is just trying to troll us.

Out: Michie. Just not up to it. I'd leave the rest and back them in. I would love to spoil the bulldogs party this weekend.

There comes a stage where we have to start rating our own developed players over just getting more draft picks. Howes been great since moving down back.

Also big wrap of Howes game today. He's been great since moving back, and I really believe we can't afford to lose him. Only player in our defence that has a bit of class.

I actually enjoyed today's game. I dont mind being beaten by a better side which is what they are. Had a real crack and it was an entertaining game. We really lack that killer instinct when we are running over teams. It was the same last week against collingwood. We should have buried them earlier. North are in that perfect age/experience bracket and i thought we really had them on the ropes. They've peaked, and we are only going to get better. Bring that every game and we will win more this year. Hogan. You are a superstar.

I second the notion that this guy needs an Open Mike.

Wow they rested some handy talent and still flogged us.

Can't mark. Can't kick. Thats not what we are paying 500k for.

What's his email address?

I thought we played some outstanding footy on QB against them. I'm hoping no one in the team says we owe them before the game.

I've been a big fan of Dawes but he has shown next to nothing all year and he was truly woeful this weekend. He needs to be dropped.

"We were outplayed" - Jack Viney. Herein lies why yesterday was so shocking. There's nothing wrong with another team being simply better than you, but this quote says, we didn't try hard enough. Umpiring was shocking but the Saints were first to the ball all day. Yesterday, from the first bounce the players showed no care. I can't cop that.

The reason why i nearly give up on this club: We are so terrible that winning 5 games in a season is deemed an improvement from the coach.

I'm done with him. Too defensive. When we are 4 goals down I have no faith at all to reel it back. Skills haven't improved at all. Been out coached many times. Recruiting has been ok, but teams like st kilda invested In youth and are already past us with a much brighter future.

Last weeks win didn't fool anyone. We were poor last week and even worse today. Bring on Goodwin.

We look so disorganised. No flow. Our goals seem to be coming from just fluke plays.

Grimes can find the footy but just fluffs it up so much. I'm not sure how many times Roosy has said they need to take the first option but the message ain't getting through.

Two of our worst today are premiership players. Collingwood were good enough to carry them obviously.

You'd think we'd be breathing fire in the 2nd. Still look just as letharic.

Game over. Roos has got it wrong. Saints took a punt on youth and are a much better football team than us. Dawes, you can pack your bags.

Its not about the stats. He gave them first use of the footy all game, with a midfield good enough to read him. He was immense.
