[pivotal]

St Kilda no longer seem capable (or interested) in causing upsets. They're predictably poor every week. This should be a dull, lop-sided affair with a half-hearted rendition of the Geelong theme song at the end.

 

[JackFlash]

This will be a tight hard fought contest with two evenly matched sides....the Saints are a big chance here!

1st v 15th and you think they're evenly matched.

 

[Ducky Tie]

Yeah this could get ugly.

 

[Power Raid]

the cats are simply too good

St Kilda no longer seem capable (or interested) in causing upsets.

When your injury list hovers at around 15 for most of the season, including many of your best players, it is somewhat difficult to cause upsets.

Josh Battle (Statistically in the Rising Star one of the best eligible players) being the latest player to go down.


If the two teams lined up as they did last weekend (and Saints will not as Battle is injured) it would be on average 128 games at 26 yrs 6 months vs 65 games at 23 yrs 10 months. That is a pretty stark difference.

The Saint's averages may go up a little as Brown will probably come in for Battle and Hannas may or may not be back as well.

 

[Jimmy Yamazaki]

Just want to get back on the winner's list. Bring in a CHF would be good as well regardless whether Esava gets up or not.

 

[westie]

I just hope that it isn't too ugly.

[SufferingS8INT]

I want us to win but not at the cost of Richo coaching for one more week than he has to!! The last time we played Geelong he showed exactly why he isn’t up to it.

Q1- Cats to jump us and kick the first 6
Q2- Saints to get back within 2 goals
Q3- Saints to kick 1.7 to cats 4.0
Q4- Cats to kick the next 6, Saints to kick 2 goals in Junktime.

BOG Stewart 16 intercept marks

 

[JackFlash]

1st v 15th and you think they're evenly matched.

Not much between the teams, Cats have run out of steam and are a soft side.....

 

[Jhye Clark 13]

Turn it up

 

[Chinacats]

Extract the digit cats!

 

[Atomboy]

The Cats could hold a pre-match raffle where two members of the crowd sub in for Gazza and Danger and I reckon they would still win by 10 goals.

Conversely if the Saints did the same for McKenzie and Seb Ross I reckon we would go pretty close to an upset.

 

[Lyttelton Ranger]

Not much between the teams, Cats have run out of steam and are a soft side.....

From what I've seen this year, we're anything but a soft side

 

[gingernuts]

8 hour road trip to get to game tonight. don't let me down catters
