After watching last week let me say this.Just wondering if any of you are going to watch this game , They have great food there and the weather looks like its going to be ok too
Didnt expect that , its cool mate i will go by myselfAfter watching last week let me say this.
Take out the Saints performances against Hawthorn, GWS and Carlton this year and replace them with 5-10 goal hidings. How hard would it be to turn up again?
Last week was as pathetic as it gets. This club seriously hit a new low, but nobody has really noticed because the clubs coverage of our VFL team is putrid. We are the worst AFL aligned team by so far it isn't funny! Our communication / treatment of Sandy is also disgraceful, but most of why we are terrible rests on us.
Also had a gutful of the few VFL players that do perform not getting games when they deserve it. People whinge about player x needing to earn his spot in the seniors. Yet the same young players bash down the door for opportunity and don't get it. Stats tell you a little, but watching live it is bleedingly obvious.
I bet 99% of Saints supporters are surprised at how Rice and Lonie are going. On the flip side about 1% of Sandy watchers are surprised. Seriously over watching some players gifted games, while those who actually earn it are left to rot. Also over players being played out of position when they do get the opportunity they deserve! Its actually as bad as it was under Lyon, and apparently now have a development coach!
So to answer your question, the idea of going to that cesspool of a Collingwood ground isn't exactly inviting. Not having a go at you mate (sorry for the angry tone), but not sure people are aware of just how faarked this situation is. Only small difference is a few people are starting to listen now. Last year and the year before nobody listened.
Most people will just go to the selection thread each week and repeat the same crap about player x should play based on one tweet or a 2 minute look at the stats, and how player y is no good. Ask anybody who follows Sandy about selection integrity and watch them laugh. Makes it very frustrating going along and watch.
Again sorry to unload, but the question of why isn't anyone going to / reporting on games, and what is going on at Sandy is actually really relevant (and is the root of a lot of our problems)!
Actually the ground is better now that it used to be when we played there. Less fights tooAfter watching last week let me say this.

Sorry mate. Been a long year for Sandy combined with a well entrenched hatred of that ground and the club associated with it. Instinct is always to brace for a fight when preparing for that local feral population.Actually the ground is better now that it used to be when we played there. Less fights too
Its all good man , my skin is pretty think , i have great memories of that ground , the day Nicky lifted his shirt after the game was amazing being there giving the pies supporters shit and singing in the outer , The old daysSorry mate. Been a long year for Sandy combined with a well entrenched hatred of that ground and the club associated with it. Instinct is always to brace for a fight when surrounded by the local feral population.
Great work getting down. It is an eye opening experience to see just how behind the pack we actually are!
I was still fairly young at that game but remember the day really well. Learnt a few new words. My disabled grandpa almost got hit too (although in hindsight calling Greening a diver might have pushed a few buttons).Its all good man , my skin is pretty think , i have great memories of that ground , the day Nicky lifted his shirt after the game was amazing being there giving the pies supporters shit and singing in the outer , The old days
Yeah sleepy was great that day , im pretty Sure i know who it wasI was still fairly young at that game but remember the day really well. Learnt a few new words. My disabled grandpa almost got hit too (although in hindsight calling Greening a diver might have pushed a few buttons).
People talk about Nicky, but do you remember how good McAdam was that day? For anyone who didn't see, think Billings quarter against the dogs spread over the second half.
Oh and if anyone wants another reason to change our coach? Both Nicky and Gilbert are on record saying they were racially abused by fans AND Collingwood players (both that day and in the Semi the year before). Guess who played on Winmar that day at Vic park (and got a football lesson)??
4 now!! Crikey!Sandy 28 v Collingwood 17
Tom Lamb 3 goals this quarter
What's the knock on Lamb? He's got some significant attributes.

Talking to a saints players mum at the game today , some weird shite going on at our club, i got more gossip today than i have been given in the last few years
Also that Richo coaches all the flair out the players and wants then all to be like Geary ( You know hard at the contest ) and as some have suggested , Richo does have his favouritesI cant tell all or i would be putting a player in a shit spot , what i can say is
The players were pissed that Freeman was dumped after Two games
The players are pissed that the marketing and selection panel dont work together and post crap about a player getting a game ect and it doesnt happen
Concussion.Freeze playing?
Havent seen him on stream as yet
