Autopsy - Round 6, 2024: St Kilda v Western Bulldogs

https://www.afl.com.au/afl/matches/5941 Disappointing performance. You expect a level of inconsistency with a young and inexperienced team but very few can hold their heads up high after this one. Will be watching with interest to see what the response is.

So he does a drop punt from the boundary and a snap from in front.

Baffling. Last week he took about 25 seconds to kick that goal too, when we only had a minute. Makes you wonder.

 

[Ads734]

please put the pups on the ball ffs.

 

[Plugger35]

Harsh on Byrnes

Can't fault his effort but he is a good ordinary footballer at best.

 

[Veer Right]

Hugos numbers super for his first full game

12 possies, 9 contested, 6 tackles and a goal

I do believe i love this guys intensity

 

[Peter Wallis]

Sorry for the intrusion and I come in peace but form is such a flukey thing. After our effort last week and losing Jamarra and Libba from our team, no one could have predicted this. The Saints usually pride themselves on effort and pressure, and it just hasn't been there tonight. Maybe the game against the Giants has taken the edge off them this week but I would be really surprised if there isn't a huge reaction next week. They are way better than what they have shown tonight.

NWM might need a trip to Sandy.. playing bruise-free footy and not providing any drive out of the backline

To be fair he’s not and never has been an enforcer. But he’s having an off night tonight.

 

[GTrains Mullet]

Dougs extra height would of been handy

 

[Stan_Darsh72]

Jesus, Erin Phillips puts as much effort as we have tonight with these updates..how do any of these charisma voids like her, Selwood & Hodge get a regular television gig?

Caminiti is a very average footballer. Big and tries his guts out but his footballing skills show why he went undrafted.

40 year old Liam Jones giving Membrey a bath.

Because they are star players.

Who needs good coverage like the NFL or premier league, 7 only wants people that the average reality show watching flog knows

So you're an Optometrist

You're clearly a Pies fan, because that's top level dad joke material and Pies fans usually breed like rabbits

It’s the blind leading the blind around here Toxic.

 

[SteeleSaints]

If we are honest this has been coming for 6 weeks. Midfields win games now more than ever and our midfield is not up to it and hasnt been for 10 years.

We dont have depth and our injuries have already cruelled our season.

 

[Browny2Carlisle]

No one shepherds

 

[denisp]

The whole team has been weak as spuds

 

[ScrappyDo]

So you're an Optometrist

Welcome back mate.

 

[Teflon]

I thought Ross made players give 100% effort

Out talented I thought?

Na we stink and we all had a feeling this would happen.

We call that feeling "Thursdays"

 

[Plugger35]

Here come the umpires trying to even up the free kick count now that the game is over.

 

[GTrains Mullet]

Higgins pressure has been good. Give him that credit

 

[denisp]

No one shepherds

Nah fk that makes the prick with the ball run faster

 

[Saintos The ITK]

Reckon we’d beat Sandy???

 

[Sainter93]

Isn't Robert Harvey our forwards coach? That makes as much sense as Tony Lockett being our midfield coach.

Harvey should be coaching our midfield how to kick it to our forwards, not coaching our forwards.

Harvey just isn’t a good coach in general tbh

 

[denisp]

Reckon we’d beat Sandy???

Yes I do - what odds are you giving me?

 

[lethalsaints]

Yawn

 

[GTrains Mullet]

Showing nothing at the moment.

 

[sauce_head]

The list is not that diabolical. The game plan sucks.

Have to have 100 inside 50s to kick a goal. He has not evolved whatsoever. This is a 15 year old game plan and it is too exhausting to maintain.

Players starting to look like that can't be arsed playing this dour exhausting brand of footy anymore.

Yeah his track record is appalling at getting s**t lists to finals. This is a special list. Special type of leaderless, spineless crap.
