The operative word from freo was "lacerations".

If there's anyone to compare, it's Voss and Sweeney.

Birss does not have real 'ground prescence' but he does slip under the radar, which can't be a bad thing! From a purely stats perspective. Shane Birss Possessions: 15 Marks 5 Tackles: 4 (equal third highest for us) Only thing against him is frees against, with 3. Also, where can I find stats for &qu...

To pick someone off a 5day break, even at VFL level would be a silly idea, I applaud the decision to rest a few potential replacements from the Scorpions. However, CJ shouldn't pull a Saints jumper on again this year, fitness related. (Yes, i'll go on record as saying this, so you can all put crap o...

It's hard to give a BOG against someone who kicks 8 goals, but Lenny would have come mighty close.

SS now has over 10,000 members, how many of them are real, and how many are spammers? Surely there's a bank of already registered spammer accounts.

The only real way to get around this is to implement a Captcha and email activation system, and delete all accounts with 0 posts.

Gram 51 games.

Sydney's opponents: just the points, can't be bothered ranking them again!

I was worried in the first 5 minutes of the game, the dockers really had their "wave of handballs" and running forward in huge packs going. After that, we positioned ourselves to stop this, and our tackling was what won us the game in the end. We still have many areas to work under, one is...

If we beat them this week, that is. All other teams in the 8 are beatable on our day. Port Adelaide and Geelong are my current worries, as well as a full strength Sydney and West Coast in their respective home towns.

St Kilda 19.12 (126) Essendon 18.10 (118) Geelong 17.16 (118) West Coast 18.9 (117) Carlton 16.12 (108) Adelaide 15.17 (107) Fremantle 14.12 (96) Kangaroos 13.13 (91) Port Adelaide 12.15 (87) Richmond 12.14 (86) Hawthorn 12.10 (82) Collingwood 11.15 (81) Melbourne 9.16 (70) Western Bulldogs 11.7 (7...

Brooks - Not in bests
Watts - 2 VFL Goals
Blake+Clarke = 15 hitouts each
Entire Fremantle team = 15 hitouts
Gehrig - 8 AFL goals

No argument from me that it's great for the kids. I would have thought the cheersquad should strive to be motivation and encouragement for the players, first and foremost.

When you have players coming out and saying that the banners "say silly things" then there's issues.

Which part of his post did you disagree with? (and why?)

If I were a saints player, it wouldn't be particularly inspiring to me.

Cheersquad review committee at the end of the year, please.

Also considerably more AFL experience from Mini than CJ.

Freo allowed us to play our style of game, and our gameplan works the best against sides like the Dogs and Dockers. I'd expect to see a dockers gameplan more like our own next year under Harvey.

Surely McQualter is ahead of Jones at this stage. I guess it'd be hard to pick anyone off a 5 day break though.

We still suck at bringing the ball past defensive 50 from a kickout.

Picture this.

The saints are playing in the last AFL game of september, and Thommo had gotten over his knee injury and played a half of footy for the scorps and amassed 25 posessions.

Do you play him in the grand final?

I pay less attention to the sticky posts than i do the regular posts, just too many useless ones.

Also, i'm making a pretty big push against this "3 points for a rushed behind" rule change, in favour of 1 point and a ball-up 20m out from goal. So add that in if you agree with me

Such a shame our most consistent player over the past 10 years can't go out with the dignity he deserves. Injuries are a cruel mistress indeed.

Out: Attard, Jones, Rix - Games Total of 22 + 3 + 27 = 52 games
In: Birss, Voss, R. Clarke - Games total of 59 + 168 + 27 = 254 games

Says a lot about the selection criteria this week.

Selection of Raph still baffles me.
