A team playing for each other, a team playing to win rather than limit defeat, a team that has the skills to actually play the game, a team that's structured but knows when to break the rules, and a team that is belting opposition during the last 6 rounds... because everything suddenly clicks.
Although realistically it’ll be some tight wins, not turning up for the first quarter then losing by a respectable margin and a couple of blowouts.

I’m seriously thinking of changing my poster name. Mine sucks

I think our whole game plan was about harm minimisation though to be fair. Guys like Bruce had to work back into defence to help out. Ratts seems to be building towards each area minding their own patch instead of trying to do too much.

It's a decision he has to make
But seeing Paddy come back, get through the season without injury and show us why he is no. 1

If you park that first quarter it was pretty even...
I'm really interested to see how we use Battle. I thought he had a great season this year playing as a back. It seems, reading between the lines of some of Gallagher's comments, that we might move him back up forward. He is seriously talented, can't wait to see what he brings in 2020.
Finals!!!!

+ 1. I think Battle is very underrated externally, if he’s fit and goes forward I wouldn’t be surprised to see him kick 30+ goals. If he remains in defence then I feel sorry for opposition KPF’s trying to get a touch against Howard, Snake and Pretzel.
Battle just looks like a player. I reckon he ends up a gun whichever end we want him. As long as we just commit to it. On the plus side looks like we gave a decent amount of versatility now.
Who's pretzel?

Even when we played in grand finals people were attacking players. I doubt anything will change there. You might be disappointed.

Was Kevin Sheehan’s big slider in his draft year. Pick #39.
Looks like he’s equally comfortable both ends which will just be fantastic for us. Personally think we may need him as a forward initially to cover Bruce a bit until Ming finds his feet.

Seeing the Ratten gameplan in action, noting his selection strategy.
Hearing about the initial effect of that ex-Hawthorn fella we took from AFL house.
Hearing about Roughead's progress in list management and his long term career design.
St Kilda's home-grown youth proving a lot of people (including its own fans) wrong and become elite (this is more of a hope than anything, but very possible)
Sandringham and St Kilda being closely aligned on playing style in a positive way.
Improved goalkicking.
Matt Parker lighting up the competition with another AFL preseason under his belt.
The indigenous round.
Revenge in Shanghai.

From memory Newnes gave Battle the nickname pretzel, story on the talking Jack with Jarryn podcast.

I'd love us to make the finals, but to honest I'd take us just being able to hit targets by foot more than half the time.
