Preview Round 1, 2021: GWS v St.Kilda - GIANTS Stadium, Sunday 21st March, 3:20PM AEDT *HIGHMORE DEBUT*

[Mowman]

Acres sub?

We might need a submarine tomorrow

 

[sauce_head]

At least with this weather having no max and limited rucks is limited in its damage.

 

[borderbarry]

Highmore and Hunter to debut, congratulations boys. Have a good one.....

Ditto Frawley and while we would like to have had Jones, these conditions ought to suit a bush-pig like Bytel down to the ground.

 

[aussierulesrules]

We seem to have picked a fair bit taller team than them. Forward line in particular.

McKernan, Battle, Wood and Skunk v Himmelberg

Mumford lurking harder than captain stabbin’

My copy/paste job was pretty av.

All of those I'd consider mobile talls though so it's not like we picked Kosi

Bloody hell...

Looks like they might run out of colours.

Any melts yet?

 

[aussierulesrules]

Any melts yet?

Nope. I want my money back. Been waiting all offseason for this.

 

[#gosaintas]

I'd have dunny ahead of dmac but really who cares

 

[SaintsSeptember]

It kind of pisses me off that we gave Newnes and Hind away, and de-listed Phillips, and have McKenzie as our emergency.
If Phillips problem was that he wasn't damaging enough, McKenzie's problem is that he doesn't get the opportunity to be damaging.

 

[Munga]

I'll be watching Wood carefully to see how hard he gets....

Cos, you know, his uncontested reputation....

Seriously....



Post game I think there will be plenty of remarks, it will either be "Soft Wood" or "Hard Wood". We'll see.

 

[pebblesofsand]

Seeing Higgins named at centre half forward confused the hell out of me! I thought we had drafted some tall fella i hadn't heard of at first

I see Sinclair named at CHB. Is that Callum?

 

[ScrappyDo]

Twenty Three.

 

[AFLOnline]

From a neutrals perspective, I can see our team on paper would look very mediocre lol

 

[malevu]

One of the Giants strengths is their intercept marking across half back, mainly through Haynes and Davis. With us having 3 key talls out I could see them having a field day. However the deluge might just work in our favour. We need the ball consistently on the deck to give our small forwards time to strut their stuff. Hopefully the weather might be just the break we need. Stuff all else has gone our way recently.

It should be a close, low scoring contest with a couple of goals margin either way. I just hope we get the job done and return home without any more injuries.

Battle kept Haynes to zero intercept marks last year.

Battle touched up Haynes nicely last year.

Game Day - Round 1, 2021: GWS v St.Kilda *HIGHMORE DEBUT*

Would be a memorable win with 9 of our best 22 out. Interested to see how the weather holds up. Maybe it will favour our small brigade. Excited is an understatement! Go Saints :thumbsu:
