The Lions' younger players got tired and their skills and decision making fell away badly in that last quarter. Mind you it wasn't a high skilled game in the first place. The Saints' defenders kicked the ball OOTF about 10 times and Leuenberger could have changed the whole course of the game had he held onto a mark or two inside forward 50 instead of dropping every one. St Kilda was lucky they were playing Brisbane. In any case the next 8 weeks will sort them out - Adelaide away, Carl, Haw, Melb, Freo away, Coll, Dogs and then the Cats. Good luck with that Sainters

As for us if we lose to Brisbane next week then we should board up Punt Rd. It's going to get worst for them before it gets better too. Brown, Black and Power will retire shortly and there's a possibility they'll lose Mitch Clark as well if he stills wants out of Qld.
