Prediction Changes for Saints

[JB1975]

Surely Bucks will give us an honest answer about Pendles in his press conference in the next hour or two...

The club doesn't lie or withhold the truth.

I'd like to thank your post for the refreshing burst of coffee it sent flowing through my nostrils and onto my keyboard.

 

[domus]

Pendles in doubt

I said he'd miss even though they had us believing he was so close last week. They are full of BS. We will see.

 

[Horaceg]

Good time for the Saints game, we need to restore some confidence and this should be the week, lose and we are nowhere.

Langdon in for Apples (his time should come)
Fasolo in for Crocker (not sure where his future lies, he battles)
I think Mayne will stay in but would like young Daicos get a run, We need decent ball users and he will be one of them.

 

[Horaceg]

I hope Wells has the desire and his body holds up to finish his career strongly and he’s not just filling in time. He is awesome when on and would love to see it this week.

My tip he smashes it, too much class.

Don't be so confident, we have a history of losing these types of games. The saints second half against freo was very good and that for tends to carry over into the following week, lets not get ahead of ourselves but hopefully we get the job done

I'm hoping they have sore legs after playing on Optus Stadium last week.

Hopefully they don't run out the game well.

I thought that's what you did anyway B H.......

Just proves I can really rock a set of pink feathers on my head.

Which anyone who has seen me out on a Saturday night would know well already.

As a stallion, I can say I do everything with flare.

 

[Bad Horse]

Mmm torn on that one, do we want you to have to "Pony Up" or not?

Plenty of people want to take me for a ride, so probably yes.

And I will ignore your gratuitous use of the P word. This once.

I’m also intrigued why anyone takes much notice of the length attribution to injuries.

It’s the old school, play ducks and drakes with the opposition.

It’s never been about keep the supporters in the exact know.

I just look at the ins and outs.
Simples. they in, they play.

If injury report says test, 1 week, whatever it’s just window dressing.
Unsure why anyone thinks it should be super accurate. Will never be otherwise

There used to be a stat suggesting that most teams lost after an away trip to WA. Not sure if that’s still the case. Hope so.

Agree. We seem to lose the games we should win a lot. Add the ground it’s being played. Not our strong point. Even if it’s our home game

 

[JJ14AU]

Nervous about the Saints game, but following my pattern of nervousness we should win. Expected us to lose against Blues/Bombers/Brisbane - Wrong 3/3.

 

[welshm69]

I have a bad feeling about this game; losing and potential injuries.

In the first few rounds, Cats and Suns won the week after playing in WA.
Couldn't be bothered checking out the rest after that.. haha

 

[Frankie23]

We're a good side, been decimated by injuries this year but our system is holding up. Pendles and Langdon are massive for our structure. We'll win this, and easy

I'm hoping the trip to Perth plays in our favour, by rights with the players they will have out and the fact that they are shit means we should smash em, I hope so

 

[Kilmo]

Hopefully they don't play the game well because they are the 16th ranked team with only one win to their name for the season

This year we haven’t lost any we should have won although arguably we should have got closer in round one to hawthorn and should have beaten Carlton by more. But we also beat Adelaide away.

and a team regardless of them being below us or being a poorer team, we always seem to struggle against.

Yep, i'd be much more confident at the G as well, massive danger game this, lose and we're ****ed.

This is their grand final.

 

[The Magnificent Seven]

This is their grand final.

Jeez we have to play them two weeks in a row?

 

[The Magnificent Seven]

I'm not confident or cocky but reasonably I'd say we are 3-4 goals up at final siren. We have a system and good teams can break it, some can exploit it but most lower tier clubs will have some time trying to stop a midfield onslaught of fast running and fast hands. Saints themselves tore us a new one 2 years back doing exactly the same thing.

Doesn't matter who's in or out - our game style with baseline players means we won't have it easy but we should get over the line.
