I really have problems holding in the frustration at these "supporters". Lucky I had my better half to keep me quiet on Saturday. We all decided to go for the level 3 reserved seats this year, and just my luck we're stuck in front of a pack of St Wingers! I'm not sure I can take it for a w...

I'm a big fan of Gardy and very glad we stuck with him through those foot injuries!

saint-stu

Pretty sure it was Chris Scott who bumped Nick's broken shoulder.

Brad was the good one. Chris was a thug.

I need to see more of Armitage - he doesn't get enough of the ball.

21 disposals, 4 marks, 8 tackles and a goal... really?!

Interesting that Ross said we played a different/second style this week compared to last week. "Last week was a different sort of a game and we constructed a different game on purpose and tonight we came to pay our traditional game, so we've got a couple of styles that we can go to we think and...

I still don't see what King has done wrong. He's a pretty good second ruckman to Gardy.

saint-stu

Gardiner is definitely our #1 if we can keep him fit. But King had a lot more hitouts than McEvoy last week (17 to 7).

I still wonder if we might be better with King come finals time.

* Always kicking backwards * Too much "Bloody handball" * Point blank refusal to "Pick em up" every time they kicked out from full back * Nowhere near enough kicking down "the guts" and complete inablity to "just kick the damn thing" As one bloke behind me to...

Mini is only 23 and had a fantastic and consistent year last year. I have no doubt he will back it up.

Bakes is a B&F winner.

saint-stu

Bit harsh on these two?

>04 - #17. McQualter....also seems to have made it

I would have thought he was definitely in our best 22.

>05 - #33. Gilbert......has definitely made it

Star!

What about tackling?

On a few occasions I wondered why our guys weren't tackling the player with the ball.

When we looked our best, we had multiple players going in to tackle hard, one after the other.

Is this a conscious decision?

There was a preview for Bana's new movie with Adam Sandler and Seth Rogen on the Today show.

I could have sworn I saw a Saints clock on the wall.

Trying to buy tickets now, but I can't get any level 3!

saint-stu

He was number 1 for tackes and 2nd for disposals.

I definitely think he's an in.

I noticed him running to space more than usual and our win was built on tackling.

Needs to work on his disposal but so do a few of the guys.

saint-stu

I would be interested to see the tackle counts for the Saints v Cats game this year.

That would have to be the highest pressure game the Saints have had to play this year?

saint-stu

It can't be too far off Subiaco's dimensions. Which begs the question, were the Saints flat after a blockbuster game, or did they struggle a bit on the larger ground against West Coast?

I'm not sure how the dimensions can account for all those errors.

saint-stu

It was interesting when he was saying that some players can't take in all the information from the coaches and the coaches have to simplify it for them.

Francis said "They're called defenders"..

And Joey said "And a couple of taggers and a ruckman".

saint-stu

if he is iinjured why is he playing?

what happens if he gets more injured during the finals?

My understanding is that it's a chronic condition that doesn't go away and must be constantly managed by reducing the workload when it gets bad.

saint-stu

It seems to be affecting him more and more.

I saw him a few times just jogging after an opponent.. it must be painful.

His tackles are still excellent though.

Craig's eyes on Saints

Adelaide 130 def Fremantle 13

That looks like one of our scores earlier this year.

I hope we don't have a repeat of 1997 in the finals.

AS much as I love what Rossy Lyon has done for our club, I can't stand this micro managing of our players. Why can't Geary speak briefly with the media about his mate Selwood? Will the boogy man come and spook the team before the game if he does? The club was already made to look ridiculous trying ...

When listening to Paul Roos on the radio the other day, I commented to my girlfriend about how much he talked like Rossy.

Or is it that Ross talks like Roos?

saint-stu

but felt Gardiner's forearm to Jamar's head was worse than it looked.

saint-stu

So what's the story with Milney's knee?

I remember seeing him on the ground last week and was very worried, but he came back on a kicked a bunch of goals.

Surely can't be too serious? Although I remember Lenny playing out a game with a busted knee.

saint-stu

if we need to get 30,000 to make money then we can thank the 800 lions supporters for getting us over the line

NOISE was good though..

I thought the crowd was really quiet for a large part of the game. I could actually here the players and umpires.
