Preview Round 20, 2018: St.Kilda v Western Bulldogs - Etihad Stadium, Saturday 4th August, 7:25PM AEST

[Yawkey way]

I’m happy with those changes, fantastic to see freezer debut.

I think the saints will win this by 24 plus.

 

[Sainter_487]

Good to see a mobile forward line with a fair bit of class! Very excited to see what could be our team of the future taking shape.

 

[VDS66]

Haha. No mate. Did you take a Valium or what?

Just kidding, I knew you weren't.

Go Freezer!

 

[SufferingS8INT]

Freeman!!! I hope he plays a great game. More for him than for us..... but mainly for me.

Happy with all the INS not happy with Marshall being dropped. I didn’t even watch the last game v GWS but regardless he needs to keep playing games, big lads take time and he is not a VFL player. We have nothing to lose and everything to gain from it (big picture thinking).

 

[Southseas]

who will pinch hit in the ruck, Acres i guess?

 

[WhiskySaint]

I like the team balance more this week, 4 of our forwards can plan mid or wing, and both the talls can push up the ground too.

Pumped to watch freezer and nice to have Coff and Clark in the side together!

 

[Saintos The ITK]

Pretty happy with that. I reckon Goddard comes in.

 

[Old Man Rooey]

Congratulations Freezer! And as others have said a good team on paper.
Goes without saying, I think Freezer will be a better player in a better team, rather than with Sandringham. Good luck young man, you can only be an inspiration to those around you after what you've been through.

 

[Saint Watto]

Not even one bit embarrassed to admit I teared up a little watching that vision.

I’m sooo excited for this kid. May it be the first of 200 games!

It's a great clip Diehard....the thunderous cheering and applause just shows you how much Freezer is regarded at RSEA.

Great to see Richo standing at the front for a change...lol.

 

[Saint Watto]

Of course it just WOULD be the game when I’m going away for the weekend!

As I said to an earlier poster who has the mumps...it's the good ol Saints supporters bad luck kicking in.

At least you'll be warm on the weekend...lol.

 

[lewdogs]

Marshall out is interesting. He was pretty bad last week but structurally we are about 10 times better with him in the team. Now it's back to the pain of our 2nd ruck debacle. Probably the most effective player aside from Marshall this year was Carlisle.

 

[MOLTEN GANGLANDS]

so glad clark came straight back in. great work that he's pretty much cemented a spot already

Guy is a gun. Oozes class. Can't wait to see him in a year or two.

 

[VDS66]

14 of our best future best 22 playing.

 

[Rors]

Battle having the forward line to himself.

Hate it.

Our forward structure breaks down even more when there’s only one tall & Membrey.

 

[Mowman]

Freeman

Agree, we've struggled recently with two marking targets..

Hopefully it means we lower the eyes and hit JB and Acres alot but I won't hold my breath

yeah, jb could go nutz this game.. could have like 8 scorings shots

and 1 goal

:/

Lower the eyes???

If we were holding our breath, we would have died early the in the 2016 season...

Our forwards will be licking their lips at the sight of Coff streaming towards them though compared to Savage!

Or we could re-package it as 8 inside 50's and score involvements at 100% efficiency

No worm is safe.

 

[theprospect]

Goddard overlooked again. For *s sake.

Happy for Freeman though.

 

[bergholt]

Is this our shortest side of the year? 1 ruck, 2 tallish forwards, 2 tall backs.
