Depends if you are planning on doing the most accurate scoring in the history of the afl again

Since teams have figured out that keeping a defender or two deep in our forward line stops our easy over the top goals, I don't think you have to worry about that.

Strange formline. Saints accounted for a West Coast side that had flogged Port the week before, and then duly get pantsed by a Richmond side that Port beat the week before.

You're assuming we've figured that out.

I hate to compare war and sport, it’s ridiculous to even think the two comparable, but if there was ever one week we need to galvanise and channel our inner Bobby Quinn it is this weekend! Big clubs win big days, the ANZAC round match is our biggest match of our year - Hence when the AFL ask for the clubs three match day requests for the year, each year home ANZAC game is number 1.

with so many comrades down, hurt and out, we need something special from the 30th player on our list this weekend!

I reckon this is more of a danger game than the Carlton game was. The fact that this is at home gives me confidence that we'll win, but expect a much stronger Saints side to turn up than the one that played Richmond last week.

 

[Janus]

Last year St Kilda turned this game into the biggest slop fest I've ever seen and used Ryder to smash us in the resultant stoppages. Let's see if we've learned anything.

We really seem to be getting teams on the rebound this year - every game we've played has been against a team who has lost the previous week.

Well, except for Carlton. But they have not counted for a long time.

Which is probably good for us with the media pressure pile on to our oppo's which should decrease our complacency.

This week is dragging... Bring on the game already.

 

[TeeKray]

Well, except for Carlton. But they have not counted for a long time.

Plus, they were coming off the bye.

We must hammer them from the very start, don’t give them any hope of winning. Don’t mind an ugly win, just win!

 

[SteppingTiger]

2020 was going to be the first time we played them outside of Adelaide since 2013, but in China not Melbourne.

Umm, I swear I saw Port vs Saints in 2019, in Shanghai.....

I dont know how I completely forgot this happened. Must have been a good game.

we should be beating this mob at home.

Port by 20

The saints have a 10 day break 10 fu**en days they will be fresh .

Probably, but sometimes the longer breaks can be a negative, their training routine gets out of whack, they lose momentum etc. We can only hope
