Can't see us winning this one. It's more about coming out with no injuries and then making an assault on Brisbane and Sydney at Marvel in the last two rounds to make the eight.

A win would be a massive, massive bonus though.

[lewdogs]

Never been less confident going into a game. They remind me of us in 09, look unstoppable (for now).

Marshall against Ceglar is an area where we can exploit them. Marshall should destroy him.

I fear what their backs will do to us.

The rewards for a win would be insane.

Give it your all Saints.

Thanks for your input Chad

 

[Munga]

Shame we didn't play them tonight for Selwood's milestone match. For what he's brought to the game, I would've quacked him off the field.

Can our backs please practise flying forward this week because you just know Hawkins will be exploiting the two hands in the back rule.

 

[BrutThough]

If fit, Howard for Sharman (been solid in defence but we need Howard for Hawkins). Otherwise, no change.

Maybe miracles can happen.

Doubtful at that ground.

Been there once and never again. They’re feral, with a huge home town advantage.

Would be a great week for Geelong to rest a few.

Ive booked a dominatrix to come over and punish me while I'm watching the game... thought i'd go with the theme of the night.

I like your thinking.
Hopefully they think the same

I fear both will got done.

 

[Murraj1966]

We're gonna cop an absolute hiding.

We've put in 2 shitful performances against some of the worst opposition in the league and scraped in wins.

Can't believe we 1 - Have to play Geelong twice and 2 - Won the first bloody game!

Such a fall from grace

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

The cats will do unspeakable things to our team. Best do something else Saturday night.

Thankfully I am in the desert 300k east of Broome

 

[NarklesHelmet]

Strangely enough, we were the last team that beat them.

They seem to have built a game style around beating Melbourne.

Coincidentally, it’s the first time in ages we beat them this year so I feel like their new style - which will likely deliver them a flag - makes them more susceptible to our brand than their old, keeping’s off style.

Port, who also play a fair bit like us, nearly knocked them off a couple of weeks back with insane pressure.

I’m not saying we will win but it’s a free hit (for us to play finals we can still get in I reckon with wins against Lions and Swans) so who knows.

 

[Plugger35]

I think our defence can keep them to a beatable score but the question is if our forwards can kick a big enough score to beat them, I have my doubts.

 

[plugger66]

Can’t win so our only hope of finals are the tigers losing tomorrow and dogs next week. Can’t see how freo beat the dogs but you live in hope. If you finish 8th you could easily get the pies. They are definitely beatable even though they just don’t lose.

 

[BrutThough]

Maybe Corey Enright can get us some magical tips on how to play that ground properly.

 

[PoppedCorn]

Listen to all the negative softjocks.

Stop bringing the forum down with your rubbish.

Saints by 5










At quarter time


Geelong by 40 plus

 

[Rooster 24]

The discussion around 8th place is focussed on the Bulldogs Saints and Richmond. However Carlton now looking vulnerable and I’m surprised they are not really being talked about as missing finals. One game and a decent % ahead of us but have 3 very tough games to come. Their recent form is worse than ours (2 wins from their last 5). I don’t see them winning any more games and will finish on 48 points. We win 2 of the next 3 and we are in.

 

[Sainter1873]

We can easily win this…just like I can win next Thursday’s Powerball, retire and live the rest of my days on a yacht in Monaco.

In all seriousness, we go down there and give it a serious go and see what happens. Perfect game to see how we handle the best team in the league. Good learning experience regardless.

Howard for Lienert. Sharman to play his role? No one really deserves to be dropped.

 

[g_TRAIN]

Most importantly I just want us to play a good brand of footy and take it to the cats - win, lose or draw.

I feel like we need to really do some planning this round to counter a number of their players

 

[MickG88]

If fit, Howard for Sharman (been solid in defence but we need Howard for Hawkins). Otherwise, no change.

Not at all, Howard for Hill. Hill has had two bad games after Ratts laid the law down, time to show some integrity. Sharman to play on Stewart like last time when he did a pretty good job.

Can’t win so our only hope of finals are the tigers losing tomorrow and dogs next week. Can’t see how freo beat the dogs but you live in hope. If you finish 8th you could easily get the pies. They are definitely beatable even though they just don’t lose.

Also Carlton just lost to Crows, if they don't win another game then they will be booted from the 8.
