Unless we do something really dumb at the selection table (which unfortunately can't be completely ruled out :roll: ), we will win comfortably.

Margin...? We'll have around ten more scoring shots than Ro$$y's purple obscenities.

The margin will depend on how many of those are accurate scoring shots. (Sigh.)

Brad Hill will probably bunk on the weekend with a Saints player, just to be ready for the move

The line is us at 6.5 points.

I've been watching 'the line' most weeks, not just our game- and quite often it's surprisingly close to the final result

We'll win by 10 goals. I feel a smashing coming on.


Posters that have admitted they were wrong about Hanna's gastro and the club didn't create a cover story.
Total = 1.

Geezus.
I might have to put a lazy $50 on +66.5.
Will pay really well

Didn't Freo beat the Cats last weekend, and they were quite impressive. And they're a finals contender.

OK, they are probably better at home.

Loyalty aside, if Freo are outsiders I'd say they would be a good value bet.

No Gresh is a big negative for us.

True, but with duds like McKenzie and Parker out replaced by GOAT Newnes and Patton that helps balance the ledger somewhat......also, if Acres returns I think it should square out.

I reckon Hannagastrobry will play for Sandy. Just a gut feel.

Speaking of Newnes, who is now this year’s Weller...

Was wondering about Big Footy Freo fans take on this...

Quote One
Petty good Saints names waiting to come back in incl Newnes and Steven. Not as confident with this game as the Cats at home last week.
Response to quote
Steven, yes. Newnes is ordinary.

That’s a cheap shot on my part, sorry, Newnesy. (But it’s not my quote)

Well I guess the second Freo fan will have his/her (what is the pronoun to avoid the gender - can I say “their” for singular, as in ‘everybody gets their due’- Uh...anyway, Steven is Sandy, and judging by reports, he is not only aSandy, he is standing at the edge of the breakwater waiting for the old sub at Black Rock to take him across to a Corio Bay.

So we get Newnsey back. Happy Docker fan.

They beat us first time, when our hopes were still high. We were high on Parker and Kent, two names fast receding. I think we can have a real go here, and I expect us to win.


You're quite brilliant Shane, yeah..terrific!
