Love when a hawthorn player "handballs" it with only one hand coming within a foot of the ball

This game is the equivalent to an AFL affiliate VFL side versus a standalone side.

There is just such a gulf in poise, skills, polish, and just general game sense. We're so lucky they're under 30 points at the moment.

Harmes gets loving sat on and called for no genuine attempt, a hawthorn player dives on the ball and it miraculously doesn't come out, nothing to do with the 2 melbourne players closest to it, play on

Saints game plan: only kick it to one of your teammates if they're outnumbered, otherwise kick to nothing

Also don't ever kick a goal

And make sure your handballs either go straight to the opposition or to the feet of your teammate.

Also why wouldn't you put Hogan back in the middle at this point? He was unstoppable in the first around the ground and then Goodwin has him sat in the goalsquare since then

Love to see Goodwin innovating, we had established the goalless quarter well before he got there but now we've got the goalless half.

Winning clearances, hitouts, tied in contested possessions - can't do a drat thing with them.

The best way to defend against the Saints is to let them have the ball, they'll kick it straight to one of the opposition in a great position to rebound

We play GWS, Hawthorn, Collingwood, Richmond, Sydney before the bye. I'd suggest starting a new hobby.

The only thing the Saints are good at is making no-name players on the opposition look like superstars.

Sack the Coach. Sack all the Players. Sack the CEO and Board. But before we do anything too rash: lock them all in Moorabbin and burn the place to the ground.
