and I like it!

James Hirds article in the HS today doesn't even mention the Saints in his assessment of the possible Grand Final contestents.

I like it just as it is -no hype, underdog, smart arse comments from the Geelong coach in our direction. Lets keep a cap on it.

I love the fact that no one is talking about this.
It will make sunday even more sweeter when we beat them pussey cats

OH PLEASE BEAT'EM, I can't handle the thought of losing to them.


In Ross Get lost!

I am excited to stay at St Kilda and this is a great result for the Club and all our fans. I’m proud to be part of the Saints and am pleased to be playing football with the Clubâ€

All these retirees, heading into the media after their careers have ended.....

The guy who writes the best articles is still playing, Aker, says it how it is, no bullsh*t.....

The rest are just putting simple thoughts on paper that many of us have and the only reason anyone reads it, is because of the name they made for themselves in football.

Shades of the 1997 Preliminary Final and 2005 Qualifying Finals when we were written-off by most pundits for mine.

Hope it's a good omen!

I'm also glad they don't rate us.

Speaking to my father-in-law who has followed the Cats for a very, very long time. He says we're most certainly one of the Cats biggest threats. (mind you, he's always been pretty pessimistic :lol:)

I liked this column from the Saints website:

Dont know what they are today, but they had the TAB guy on SEN radio yesterday or the day before, and they were expecting Geelong to open at about $1.16, with the Sainters to be approximately $5.00!!

Wouldn't you rather them at full strength for the whole game?

Nothing worse than a team having excuses to fall back on.

who cares about what Hird thinks? he's entitled to his opinion...what about if he thinks Fords are better than Holdens? it doesnt matter what he thinks does it? c'mon...
