I think the Ins will be:
In: Lee, Hickey, Hayes (or Saunders if Hayes doesn't come up).
With the two big galoots out (well, okay there's only one of them), then Hickey comes in for the second ruck option and have him and Big Boy changing in the forward line for the three talls to function - Stanley, Lee and Hickey/Big Boy.
If Saad is to come in (noooo) then it would have to be at the expense of Milera you would think because three smalls just doesn't work.
As ex-president Peter Summers said:
“If we are going to be a contender, we may as well plan to win the bloody thing.”
Cant have Saad and Milera in the same side ffs.
get Lee and Saunders in for sure..
Curren really deserves a go. Chuck Chips on the LTI list and get it done! ffs
Give Curren 5 games. If hes no good - ok - we wont die wondering.
But we have nothing to lose and he has worked his butt off for 2 years. What message are we sending on this?
Interchange bench (from): Siposs, Newnes, Dunell, Saunders, Lee, Milera, Ross
So hopefully they won't play TDL, Milera & Saad in the same side. Have to factor in any late changes if Dempster & Roberton (and Hayes) are out injured.
Yes if they don't have a look at Ledger & Curren in the seniors now, maybe they never will. Not a good look if they're delisted at the end of the year
Soreness.
Scoreless for big parts of the game will have us sore.
Roo gets 10-12 marks per game and close to 20 kicks, in tough spots, how the f do we cover THAT loss?
Match committee - you are crazy. If we snag more than 5 goals for the day, will be a miracle!
A real Sainter will pledge allegiance to the ❤ and despise the Pies, the Blues, and the Injectors.

Cheer up you lot......things could be worse.......couldnt they?

No such thing just ask the AFL

There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say, "Enough is enough." For me, that time is now. I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in <redacted>. Over the past three years, I have been subjected to a <redacted>investigation followed by <redacted> witch hunt. The toll this has taken on my family, and my work for <redacted>and on me leads me to where I am today – finished with this nonsense. (Oops just got a spontaneous errection <unredacted>)
Thanks for that info Loris...At the game last Sunday Riewoldt seemed lacklustre, with none of his usual 2nd, 3rd, 4th efforts,
which made me think that if he ain't trying then the whole team has lost its way. So your report on the double up-chucking is
actually a positive !

Not a good look if they're delisted and another club picks them up and they go on to play a reasonable number of games.
But it's possible they're just not good enough. What if we delist them and then no-one else bothers to take a punt on them? That suggests we were right all along.

Don't disagree. However if we can't afford to have take a punt on guys like this at a time when we're devastated with injuries, struggling to win a game and probably happy to finish as low on the ladder as possible, when can we take a punt?
Give them a crack and if they're not up to it then at least we'll know.

I'll be inspired by your little piece of W.H. Auden, 'Teflon'............... and behind the goals at Subi on Sunday.............. and even IF we lose, I will lead the loyal Saints supporter's in a verse from Aussie Henry Lawson's 'In The Days When We Are Dead'.............
"We suffered as few (supporters) suffer,
Yet laugh as few (supporters) laugh;
We grin (and bear it) as the road grows rougher,
And a bitterer cup we quaff."
I would be pretty unhappy if Dunnell didn't get a game over Siposs- did a good job against Melbourne only to be sub for the Richmond game and then only get a small run near the end of the game..wtf
What is the best thing we can hope for from this match, apart from winning the toss?
After last week's effort, I am fearful of a 100+ points defeat. When was the last time we lost a game by a three figure margin? I'm guessing 2001 (Blight's last game as coach against Adelaide).
Will RL bring up some crocodile tears (ala BJ) during his after match interview as consolation for us? That would be the ultimate.
Curb your enthusiasm - you’re a St.Kilda supporter!!
huge challenge for hickey... chance to make a play for the number 1 rucking spot. Chance for lee to put his name up going forward. Disapointed for dunnel but he went missing once he came on last week. Webster and ross rested. Saunders and saad have form behind them. Will be a chance to show what we will be like going forward without roo, milne and kosi.
FQF
loyal in the good times and bad
In richo I trust
2013 trade/draft best ever?
Billings - future brownlow medallist Longer - future best ruck
Dunstan - future captain Eli - future cult hero
Acres - future norm smith
and despise the Pies, the Blues, and the Injectors.
