How that was ball....he barely got skin to the ball before he was tackled.

But none the less good intensity from the team. Really need to keep it up and bury them to put the critics away.

Rooooooooooooooooooo

4 on roo in the contest.
Could we start looking for secondary options, thats 3 free saints somewhere.

Noticed throughout the game we are not sticking our tackles like we usually do.

Haven't heard much if anything about CJ - what's happening with him? Haven't heard too much from the captain either - I think he needs to lift in the second half. How is Max going? Who is going to stand up and win it for us in the second half? CJ is running hard. Not sure his stats on tackles and p...

Was it Raph or Gwilt that put the hit on? Whoever it was good footy.

Lol "good its coming back for a too high....." "to gwilt?" friggin biased commentators.

Hahaha it does get a bit gratting.

I don't have the best vision but it looks like it was just a running bump between the two players, like the Kangaroo turned and ran right into King.

I really couldn't see though.

Might get flammed for this but does anyone else think Gwilt is really opening it up for the team being one of the few people to beat his man and get clean possession.

Also nice to see the whole team lifting tanks to a few players like BJ and Kosi.

Our accuracy is killing us.

That and for both sides the umpiring is pretty crappy.

woop woop woop....

Ahem, very happy to hear. Also keeps NDS in Brownlow running for which he may become a strong chance.

Damn you other betters.

Last night ACTTab had Saints at $3.55, this afternoon when I placed my bet it was down to $3.30.

Also put $10 on Saints/Doggies final as I like upsets and pays 1:21.45

I have a feeling the Hawks are coming in with far too much confidence. I just don't see how it is justified. Our best is miles ahead of their best. We just need to play our best which I have faith we have hit. Mr AA/Coleman/Worlds kissing ass to/overrated Buddy is going to get towelled by Max (who s...

Now obviously the Saints are No1 but what is the order of your preference for Premiers.

1. SAINTS
2. Doggies
3. Hawks
4. No one as AFL is cancelled
5. Cats

This also reflects my choice for winner of the semi's.

Cheers for that.
Can smack myself in the head for not thinking of the MCG site

I bought this ticket this morning on the internet at work in a mad panic. As such I took the first option given to me. How does N56 Row B fair? The little map provided on the web doesn't really make it clear. Anyway I am just happy I am going. Now to buy airfares and hotel. (I shudder to think of th...

Fuuny that we are so far in front but the game is like its even. They need to put a third margin on the scoreboard showing our percentage.

Noooo why can't the Dons stop trying and gift this to us.

Thanks god fr the post.

OMG I love you guys.

Kudos to the forwards for the points but my god the defence is amazing.

I think Blake is quick enough if the other backs don't leave too many openings.

He is far smarter than people give him credit for. He is playing some of his best footy and will make buddy accountable on the counter attack.

Our forward line is fairly solid and needs no explaining, talls mark and smalls crumb. The midfield is where it will be won. The players need to man up and give them no options. Hard tackling and solid pack play (ie Lenny) to get the clearances. Then moving the ball forward fast (and spreading the f...

Buddy also has a temper and gets affected by it. Blake and Max are both experts at getting into the head of their opponent. Rotate the two on him dependent on the field position he plays. Also we often have an extra defender so have Sam or BJ double team him early on to prevent his possesions and pu...

Assuming Roo is out. Play Kosi at CHB. Reasons as posters above. Move BJ up to the forward line. He seems to hold the play up a bit too often but put him on our 50 (and run into the center) and he has the distance to kick them. Fraser plays out of the square. He hasn't had a blinder of a season so f...
