I wouldn't worry about Guerra. He'll be too busy falling over and lying on top of the ball, his speciality when the finals going gets tough.

Jake Niall was the first journo to jump off us half-way through the season. A big article saying how over-rated and crap we are. This piece made me want to kill him.... the Saints have a 'tawdry glamour' the Bulldogs are 'probably more honourable'. My intense loathing for him stems from the article ...

Thanks Saintbrat...I wouldn't have been able to do that.

Thought Eddy was good on Sat. night....strong body in the forward line, lovely pass to Dal - just needs to work on his goal kicking accuracy.
He's going to be a gun.

When did Michael Gardiner retire?

It's not a ruck problem. Time and time again the ball went straight to
one of our midfielders who fumbled it or had it robbed from them.
So another body (ie: Blake ) would be good....but then it robs our backline.

Fantastic Harvey cartoon

Apologies if it's been mentioned but I've gone through as many threads as possible....just making sure everyone saw the magnificent Harvey cartoon on the back of the sports pages of the Age on Saturday. Remarkable. If you didn't and you've got the paper in the recycling - dig it out. It's one for po...

Shane was injured - reports were he would have difficulty getting back to his normal self, Blight delisted him.
Around that time Darryl decided he'd prefer to play at Port Adelaide - part of the Gehrig trade I think, can't totally remember.

Tim Lanes seething hatred for the Saints is becoming more and more obvious and he should be called on it. I've personally contacted Channel 10. Luke Darcy was overrated as a player and is not up to it as a special comments man. Watching the replay my favourite moment was when he started whinging abo...

Have you seen the ladder that shows us as the second best performed team in the last half of the year? We'll take it up to them - Dempster is a big loss. No Ball. Rooey a bit proppy I feel. It will be tough to win but I do think we're tough enough to get the ball. Whether we'll have the composure to...

Reasonable assessment based on Geelong's year and our year. One thing not recognised though is our ability to step it up as the game goes on eg North Melbourne, Hawthorn, Port Adelaide games. I think we can match them there. Matching them in the middle is the key and I understand why there are doubt...

If you wanted to bring a player in to lay a few out Fraser is not the man.
Not in his nature.

He's an odd bod for sure Bomber.
Got a bit of a nasty, school boy bully streak.
Think the point he's really making 'we're Geelong but they're just a mish mash, not really St Kilda' which is beyond pathetic.

At the risk of being burnt at the stake, Harves isn't a great interview subject - at least when asked the usual, expected questions. But when he lets his guard down, as shown at the very end when he was talking about bowling Damien Martyn out, beautiful stuff. That few second snippet told us more ab...
