Carlol was interviewed after the game.
Journo-āwhat did you think of that Jake?ā
Carlol: āThis club is farked!!!ā
Just watched hung the replay again, stkilda are absolutely awful
Lol as I watch stringer just absolutely DUMPED some saints guy in a tackle and it leads to a tippa goal
That was about 5 minutes after Saad was taken out. It was more of a statement than anything else - he went on with it a bit afterwards, too. My estimation of Jake went up another level after seeing that bit of play.
LOL. Endearing.
Ha,used to shout him all the time a jimmy can.
Ai t the type to shout back.
Shout out on the other handā¦

Stringer has become just about the ultimate team player. Does all the team things, dishes off even when he could take a shot himself. His involvement and investment in the team first approach is as obvious as it is infectious.
As for the chumps? They gave us an armchair ride most of the night. although the Aints helped greatly with thier atrocious skill levels. St. Kilda is the team where coaches go to die.
We need Port, Swans and hopefully North to lose this weekend.
No room. You do all of that for us!
Someone asked how the umpires faired.
I thought they were pretty average. As per usual they lack the consistency across the 3 officials. Parnell had a hand full of his howlers but he was much better than usual.
The young bloke, looked like he was only recently promoted to the AFL, he lacked any understanding of flow or consistency. Ie. didnāt pay 50 meters when a St. Kilda player ran through the mark, but payed 50 meter penalty (and a goal) when Fantasia gave away a freekick in a marking contested.
He also payed a freekick in the goal square to st. Kilda, when Brown spoiled the contest and slightly grabbed an arm after the ball was spoiled. The hold had no influence on the marking contest.
Then up the other end 1 min late, the same thing happened to Tippa in a marking contest.
No free kick.
That was a crap free. It seemed to me that Fanta just had his hand on the blokeās back to stop him from backing into him. No way was it a push. The TV did not replay it, which makes me think it was a big mistake by the maggot - they rarely replay controversial frees against us. Ad a bit later Stringer was flat out pushed in the back in a marking contest - nothing to see here, says the maggot.
Heās bought in so much itās astounding.
Even with bone bruising theyāll still run scans
That bump fired us up and we went so hard at the ball it was awesome. Thought from that moment on we would smash them, which made the second quarter very surprising. If we didnt lose those players we would have won by 20 goals last night.
As for the umpiring, they were pathetic as per usual. #32 is the product of inbreeding, Iām certain of it. He is a dead set cretin and a stain on humanity.
We certainly benefited from some rubbish free kicks (tippas in the second quarter to get us started on that 4 goal run was weak) and they got some lucky free kicks and also non-decisions.
So basically the umpiring was sadly unsurprising. All round shitness, but hey, they do a tough job apparently.
Are we stll in the finals hunt or not?
I almost felt that we held back that 2nd quarter. Didnāt run the ball and locked the footy in a bit. Assumed we were trying to conserve energy being 2 players down early.
Billings is in a ā ā ā ā situation. He is stuck at St Kilda and because he was taken at pick 3, saints will certainly want a top 10 draft pick for him. However, at this point in time, he is definitely NOT worth a first round pick at all. He is playing like a soft HFF at the moment who has great foot skills but very ordinary shot at goal
Possibly. A couple of times we got through and there was no one up ahead which was disappointing. We sorted it out in the 3rd
Stewart for Hooker if I canāt play
Did you pull up sore?
Whens the last time a club looked absolutely bereft of any stars? St Kildaās talent is more shallow than any club including GC.
Was plain to see last night.
Thatās what happens when the one player youāve spent fifteen years building a list around retires and you didnāt plan for it.
Iām ready to go!
Iāll be a disraction for the boys
