Cannot wait to smash you lot.
Our outside run with steven and hind in will destroy you guys.
Hogan was he only melb player we feared ... BWHAHAHA. You little beauty. Steele will destroy Oliver so then what can you do?
Good luck stopping gresh at the g. The cat kicks an average of 5 goals there. And thats against richmond. Against demons? wow, could be 10.
Mediocre side are we? nope. things have changed. youll find out.
We have Pressure and Structure now. Dont see how you can beat us. Not on our level.

Lol. Up and about after beating the Box Hill Hawks.
Your chances of winning will increase further if you keep Kent in the side, guarantee he will play a big one against his old side.

Cool. Will enjoy your melts when the Saints purple patch ends. Saints are a more ordinary version of 2018 Port Adelaide.

Was thinking of going down to Moorabin and sneezing a few times today but I don't want to expose myself to the countless other infections which exist at whatever dive St Kilda train at now.

Friendly reminder that St.Kilda had to move back to Moorabin from Seaford because there weren't enough coffee shops they could perv on the local talent from.

Why would you any of you engage with that individual? Genuine waste of words.

I like this guy
How this character hasn't been banned yet is beyond me.
Pretty much all he does is go around posting incredibly inflammatory stuff designed to trigger and offend, until he gets suspended. Then he comes back and it's rinse-and-repeat.
Also wouldn't assume for one second that he actually barracks for St Kilda.
His first posts with this account were absolutely bagging the s**t out of us. Then after his first suspension he went to the other extreme and was way OTT with praise and so-on.
Just pure trolling.

Lewis, Jetta and Lockhart are all available for selection. Preuss needs to prove his fitness on Friday but Goodwin thinks he will play.

You might beat us, and you're definitely not a mediocre side. You're far worse than that.

That guy is genuine good value though

I know but he has a clear plan and is trying to execute it. I appreciate that if nothing else. Doesn’t happen often at my work or elsewhere TBH

We can't be playing the same tall forward setup at the G as we did at the SCG. Preuss' debut was great but i wouldn't be playing him unless he is 100% and even so i would want more genuine crumbers in the F50 than we had last week.
If Lewis has to be in i would drop Omac, drop the press back significantly to avoid out the back goals and have Wagner stick with Membrey and tell him to not go 3rd up at ariel contents and have Frost stick tight on Bruce. Let Hore intercept and Lewis direct.
i'd also stress more accountability from the mids at stoppages and not to press to high to allow some space in the F50 for our leading tall forward line.
I feel like this is the opposite to what we have done in 75% of our games under Goodwin, but its what we were doing in the 2nd half of last year.

im not sure if Preuss, if fit, is a good idea either. the Saints have Brown, and Battle, who is a good player but relatively inexperienced, and some rookie kid as their tall defenders, and we could possibly exploit them with our 3 talls if we deliver inside F50 correctly. but I don't have much faith in our ability to make that happen, unless Melksham somehow miraculously gets 20 plus inside 50s. we have trouble keeping the ball in our forward 50 at the MCG as it is, and im not sure the big fella Preuss is mobile enough to have an impact on the bigger ground, so the Saints could run it out easily, and when that happens we struggle to get our defensive pressure going and it all falls apart.
last year we had Oscar and Petty as our tall defenders, and TMac, Weid and Hogan in the fwd line. it will be interesting to see if we change it up this time or go in with the same sort of set up that we lost with last year.
I agree. the Saints aren't a tall side at all, and they really only have 1 tall fwd in Bruce. i'd have Frost on him too and go with a smaller, more mobile defence. Frost can do an ok stopper job on a key forward, its the zoning and intercepting that he struggles with. I think he prefers the simpler job of just being accountable for an opponent, and i'm more concerned with the Saints small and mid sized forwards hurting us with their running anyway.

The weirdest thing just happened mates. I came in here and my phone started smelling like bullshit.

He got banned for being an insufferable campaigner on the main board.
2.6 isnt even close to a 5 goal average at the G.
I still think you guys are mediocre, but i think we are too.

Yes. We really do. Especially in the middle. That is why we brought in some quick guys from the wafl and that is why we are targeting zac jones. It is a serious problem.
