4 weeks in - 2 undefeated teams - Geelong and THE MIGHTY SAINTERS!!!!
We have beaten 7,11,12 and 16th on the ladder
Geelong 13, 15, 6 and 11 - so relatively the standard of competition.
We are # 2 in attack #1 in defense - they are #1 in attack (by 19 points) but #10 in defense.
Oh - and we have won the most quarters of the competition
All signs are fantastic - keep it up boys!
Next week to smash the Power and break another hoodoo!
With the Doggies losing this week - maybe they wont be so confident the next couple of weeks and our pressure will crack them more!
In the past - if teams got a few behind us - they were always sure of coming back - the past two weeks have shown we can firmly plant the foot on the throat and choke the life out of any resistance!

Let me throw a real left fielder (negative) into the equation....
Richmond lost (very funny!), BUT.....Wallace sacked tomorrow night.
SOS is thrown a line/tempted (along with others) to go to Tigerland (next season, not as a temporary coach for the rest of this season!).
Now, it sounds like he's contracted through 2010, but assistant coach contracts can be/are broken/paid out.
Hope it doesn't happen, but could be an issue due to this weekend's results.

I think SOS being the smart man, would ask what kind of brand knives they use down at Punt Road!saintspremiers wrote:Let me throw a real left fielder (negative) into the equation....

richmond will throw the kitchen sink at buckley
SOS is a great assistant coach but not convinced that outsidethe club anyone really sees him as a senior coach in the short term. Hardwick and buckley for starters are in front as a pecking order
Anyway want to suggest that the reason why some of those teams are so low is because they have had to play both the saints and geelong

I kind of agree on this, but I would think they might want a caretaker coach in - surprised Bryan Royal's name has gone quiet the last 1 or 2 years. Wayne Campbell maybe but I couldn't see Sheeds wanting a caretaker spot unless he's guaranteed another year or 2 after this season.Winmarvellous wrote:Sheedy caretaker..Malthouse next year...Buckley to the Pies. SOS need not worry
Besides can Richmond afford to pay out Wallace? Thought Clinton Casey had to worry about paying out another 3 or 4 Tiger players for "work done but not paid"
All I can say is thank god it's not us!
nah.......matthews........within next ten weeks.......Winmarvellous wrote:Sheedy caretaker..Malthouse next year...Buckley to the Pies. SOS need not worry

Good stuff! spot on and you only have to listen to the opposition coaches each week following their loss to gather we have then become a potent and abject lesson to them through they way we have gone about it. Then its obviously been drummed into their troops on the track the following week
We just simply gotta keep honing it week by week, then bring on the Pusies for mine! ( and also a full strength Hawk outfit) ....although its about time the footy gods smiled on us a bit more and the likes of Geelong and the Dogs had a few more major injuries like those we have endured over the past few seasons whilst giving us a well earned break.
