I fly in from London at 7.40am Saturday......long flight! Hope it is all worth it.
Counting down!

I've got one...I'll be ok...

Not yet, but I will. Got 3 major irons in the fire. Even if it costs me big time, I'll be there. Already costing me heaps with the last minute air-ticket.

Worth it! And yes, I think I am am an omen. Not going to be a big club...those there in 66 and 09. Oops, keep the lid on!

...and me the Pommie...

I'm with Maxstar.....we just had to get past the PF. Am quite calm now...what will be will be. Had been a jibbering wreck last week. Feel good now!

No worries....see you for a beer later?!

Booked my flight to Melbourne within an hour of victory on Friday. Pretty sure of a ticket to the game, fly in from London 7.40 Sat morning. Adrenaline is my only chance of surviving the day.....just got to be there! Going to be a very hard week finishing work, postponing things, but I never went in...

Impressive Kos!

I was at the 66 GF with my Dad, aged 9 turning 10 the next week. I listened to the 65 GF on the radio, cried when we lost. Watched the 71 GF from Sydney on TV, couldn't believe the last quarter turn around. Watched the 97 GF on telly from London, couldn't believe the last quarter turn around again. ...

Really enjoyed reading that. That is why I come onto Saintsational.....not all that spiteful self-serving c**p that clogs up various threads.

Excellent stuff.

He is anti-Saints for sure.

Great Story. What a fella you are. And beats my story of how I got the Saints. I was learning to read at school aged 5, and they had a VFL ladder up on the board for some reason and I thought that St Kilda looked the most interesting name....or certainly looked different, so that was my team. Little...

5. Roo
4. Hayes
3. Fisher
2. Dal
1. McQualter or Jones

Got better.

Just listening on the radio to talkback. Roo went off at the same time as Rocca, so alot of the noise was for Roo apparently.

Suppose we gave Rocca a send off, but he'd been trying to be the bully-boy all day. Not quite the same though.

Pretty ordinary when they all cheered when Roo looked hurt early in the game. Probably why we hate them. Anyway, he certainly shut them up.

Yeah, thought it was ADELAIDE!

Was excellent. Great goal from the angle. He is a smart footballer. Ist round draft pick that wasn't working out at one point. Is now.

We've beaten them both twice. Hope they belt each other senseless in their games next week. Pies have got a few sore boys after that one.

I thought he was good. Hard and tough....you need that. He still can't kick over a jam tin, but he gets the pill in the clinches.

Yeah, they played well. But we squeezed em and they were never really going to get in it.

No.....that will be the Pies. Karma.

Yeah, onya Dermie! You goose.

Yeah, some much for all 'the experts'! Won't be us going out in straight sets. And we can definitely play better than that as well. And so much for the MCG hoodoo.
