Saints fans call for shorter games

[bulldogs1]

With apologies to the caller (a Saints supporter) to 3AW, who called in to say that he has an amendment to Peter Schwab's call for shorter quarters and games, seasons:

Shorten the games to three quarters. By his reckoning the Saints would be on top of the ladder!

Cut them to 2 Qtrs & Freo would be in the 8

 

[Wilko1]

Introduce a final 9 and Richmond will be dead on certanties

 

[DEES RULE!]

LOL.... hahahahahah!

I've actually done the maths (sad I know).

If we stopped all games at 3/4 time we'd be 4-6 with a percentage of 89, rather than 2-8 with a percentage of 81.

Sorry Saints,

I wasn't having a go at the club. I can empathise. Felt sorry for the poor sod who at least found something to laugh about. Good luck next week, guys.

No offence taken, this current stretch is nothing, I've been following the Saints for more than 30 years, my family for more than 50. It takes a fair bit more than a run of losses like this to totally get us down

At least we are competitve, which we weren't too often last year.

Someone on our official forum actually suggested that at 3 quarter time from now on we rise as one, sing the theme song and calmly leave the ground.

And then for the entire week we don't read any newspapers, watch any TV or listen to the radio.

Sounds like a good idea to me.

LOL, Geez Saints supporters, I wish the other clubs could muster a sense of funny like you guys can. Ourselves included. When the Libba stuff hit the fan we could have had some comic relief, but I found it hard to dig deep and find it (sigh).

As Scotty says, "Keep on Punching."

lmfao. i think we should radically change the points system. instead of four points to the winning side over the whole game we could award 1 point for the team who is in front at the end of every 1/4.

htbs, get your calculator out and do the sums. i think you'll discover some fantastic and exciting news, where in the ********en 8. you beauty, september here we come.

Finals football is on the way!!

If the games had've been shortened to 3 quarters before the start of this season, Damian Drum wouldn't be queuing at Centrelink this week
