Saints v Melbourne - Round 6

[mad saint guy]

I'm hoping the only change is Lonie for Acres. Suspect we might see Minch out as well for Gresham or Eli (or both with Acres not included) though.

According to a Melbourne supporter I know, 17 clubs would have taken Petracca at No 1. Only one would have taken McCartin. We shall see.

You did point out their star spangled array of key forwards, I suppose?

I warned him of the possibility of premature jubilation and hoped it didn't blow up in his face, so to speak.

Well, the wouldn't be a Melbourne supporter if they weren't getting ahead of themselves. Now they've won 2 in a row for the first time in 5 years I'm expecting 'The Streak' to come out on DVD any day now.

Good one. I might use that.

Fun Facts:
Last week Saints ave age = 25y6m, 95 games
Melbourne ave age = 24y3m, 75 games

Saints had 11 players with < 50 games
Melbourne had 11 players with < 50 games

Don't worry about your first set of stats too much as we have a small group of older senior players that drag our averages up. ie Carlisle for Fisher next year.

Most of our team is quite young.

Just out of curiosity, are we sitting to the Lockett or Coventry end?

Trying to buy some ticket's and best available is aisle 40 level 1.

Thanks guys.

Don't pay more than $20 for those seats.

No good?

They were $20 each thanks to Telstra

Correct - If we remove Roo, Fisher, Joey, Gilbo and Dempster from last weeks team, the remainder of the team (17 players) had an average age of 23y6m and 55 games. Those 5 players alone had more than half the total games experience for the entire team (the team total for games was 2090, and those 5 combined for 1148 of those games). It gets even worse when you realise Geary, Armo and Steven have another 375 games between them and that means that around three quarters of our teams experience sits with about one third of our teams players !!!
