Good game you beat us everywhere on the field and in the coaches box. We played horrible but most of that was because you didn't let us play well. Not sure if you played that close to your best though but you certainly did enough to thrash us. You guys always had a better shot at beating Hawks than us, we would have much preferred to play Geelong in the prelim (although it's a moot point since you'd have to play them at some stage and of course because we are OUT! ).

Congratulations again.

PS: Was it just me as a Collingwood supporter or did McLaren pay 10 times the amount of free kicks compared to the other umps?

My wife and I and eldest son travelled to the MCG from Adelaide(drove over sat morn and returned sun morn). Our first time at the G since 2004. What a great place. The excitement was just fantastic. Saints supporters were outnumbered but we made as much noise as the collingwood ppl. Was really really surprised by the mass exodus of Pie fans after 3/4 time. Have only experienced that against the crows. The umpires were disgraceful(IMHO) esp number 7. We are going back this weekend v Hawks. Have seen the saints live in melb this season 3 times for 3 wins.

You guys must be stiff. Milne got a free kick. Has had 4 in the last 8 games despite being a key player with 22 goals in that period. If it is any consolation to opposition supporters, the umps hate Milne too. Milne missed the shot for goal, which I put down to shock (at getting a free).

They missed a huge amount of frees all night, which meant that when they paid soft ones they stood out. Both teams copped it and I'm still trying to work out the frees against Riewoldt and Clarke which have not been paid for the last 10 weeks. Both cost goals.

Still, not as bad as that interchange infringement in the other game which made we want to puke. Surely running the wrong side of the line is a free rather than a shot on goal (get real AFL).

Congrats on the win, hope you can get past the hawks, but it'll be tough. You can thank North for getting you back into form on the gold coast lol.
