Cordzilla most intercepts for the game!

What a man!!

King Cordy ruled the paddock!

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

The game last night had such a tribal atmosphere to it.

Welcome to the cauldron when you play St Kilda from now on.

It's something that has been missing for a few years. It's not been that loud in years

style chants from our fans. Was fantastic.

 

[George]

We are missing Howard big time

 

[The Cobra]

That was probably his best ever match. Absolutely elite quality ball use, positioning and contribution. If he plays like that every week we are going to push any side. That was as good as anything you get from the absolute superstars of the comp. To do it in a big match against last year's premier was fantastic timing.

A+ player, elite user, rarely beaten and rarely plays a bad game.

Would love to give him an extended run in the midfield if we could fill his position.

As I wrote last night - simple game plan - give it to Sincs!

 

[Ads734]

I know he didn’t have a huge impact but every minute Pou is out there it is great for his development. Look at the passion on him as well. Loves it

 

[Holy Hunter Clark]

I stood behind the aisle 29 guys. They genuinely make the footy fun.

They get multiple bays of saints fans involved.

It might not be Moorabbin but it's the next best thing.

I was in Bay 42 and they were even getting us going.. how freaking good was last nights atmosphere!!

On a sour note (or funny) I have a very very pissed off Geelong supporting Fiancee who had to sit in with the saints members who were rowdy and loving life. Sucked in

Give yourself a week off

 

[StCicatriz]

Re-watch the phillipou goal. He's with Marshall when he boots the ball towards Geelong fwd 50.

Watch the gut run. To get on the end of that play.

The kids gonna be a jet.

 

[PostmanBish]

We are scheduled to play Brisbane next Saturday. The Giants, Bulldogs and Swans all play Sunday which isn't ideal for the nerves if we get beat. I'd rather us being playing last so if one of the others is beaten we could relax. Could be a nervous Sunday.

 

[bird_man]

Depends on whether Brisbane would prefer to play Port or Melbourne / Carlton.

If they prefer Port, they have zero incentive to try to move to top spot.

Doubt that would even come into consideration, they wont want to stuff with form leadinf into the finals

 

[Ads734]

Coops is such a fun player to watch. So skillful and athletic. Another rookie to add into our collection. Astute drafting

He's a pure footballer. He's very very good.

Need only ONE out of the FOUR games to go our way next week.

Surely even for us that happens

 

[luca77]

The Hill trade was discussed a lot this week, and fair enough.
In fairness, when doing the trade we probably should consider that last night's Hill is probably what our club (and supporters) had in mind at the time. He was epic.

The Nas/Hill/Sincs machine is a bloody sight to behold when it's up and running.

 

[The Slug]

98% chance of finals according to the bookies odds. I'll take that

Taking out the bookies margin the combo of BRIS,GWS,WB & SYD winning is around 5%. That's not including the % swing required, which probably brings it down in into the 3-4% region.

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

We are St Kilda. Just remember that

 

[Captain Paddy]

Need only ONE out of the FOUR games to go our way next week.

Surely even for us that happens

The thing is, out of all the games we need to go our way, only our opponent has something to play for.

Brisbane are playing to 100% lock in a top 2 spot
Carlton will probably rest some against GWS
Chris Scott said in his presser that they will look to get guys into surgery asap so they will probably have a bunch of people out as well.

Incredible.

 

[Ephesus]

Sitting level 3 behind the goals. What impressed me was when Geelong switched the play we had runners filling space to shut them down. When they switched to the other side we had runners there as well. And when Geelong went long kick down the centre it was marked by Marshal or turned over. The Saints looked very disciplined.

 

[Red leg]

We were in Secured in the finals for as long as Keays celebrated, then were back to the pack

 

[PostmanBish]

Depending on percentage

It's a highly unlikely scenario where we miss tbh a bit of hysteria in this thread but I'm still filthy about the goal umpire

Conspiracy theorists would suggest that the league orchestrated this, so there was still a CHANCE of a change in the 8 on the last day of the season.

Score review might as well be sponsored by Corrupto.com, for all the value it truly provides - absolute bush league farce compared to proper sporting leagues.

Blokes who are built for finals

 

[stfan]

F... me Behind the goal view of the "hit the post"decision that may cost us a first final in Melbourne, or even a first final at all.

 

[crasha301]

Sitting L2 behind goals
Our backs look so much better with Cordy back there instead of Howard
Wilkie-Battle seem to have more trust in Cordy a few times they got over to him and we’re pumped with his effort

Cordy doesn't look like he's going to trip over his own feet either.
