A comment from one of their posters is an all time classic:

"Our slim chances are looking anorexic now."

once again the overated saints wont play a team with their best 22......

sorry I was takenover by a cats supporter for a second

SaintWodonga · Tue 07 Jul 2009 9:57pm

Either way, we'll win!

Oh wow. We're going to win by absolute miles.

Bring on Adelaide next week, I guess.

Don't take any games at Subi for granted. Eagles aren't easy beats either.

saintbrat · Post: # 771323Post **saintbrat** » Tue 07 Jul 2009 10:23pm

as last year showed- we were shoe ins and they walloped us

a WIN- don't care by how much

Terrible news for my supercoach team. It shouldn't worry St Kilda much, though.

Too right....

The Eagles put up a good fight against Geelong in Round 11 and lost by just 22 points and Kerr did not play in that match either...and Steve Johnson did play...

To me this is a danger game after the hype of last weeks match.

HarveysDeciple · Tue 07 Jul 2009 11:01pm

At home this year the eagles have smashed port and the doggies, beaten hawthorn and pushed Geelong all the way.

Tread carefully sainters.

no-one should be taken lightly, particularly on their own heap. definite danger game after the heroics of sunday.

the first quarter against the tigers showed what can happen when we let our guard down.

sure we smashed in them in the second and third quarter, but as bad as the wet toast weanies are, they aren't as bad as Richmond.

WCE are a young side, can be terrible one week and lift the next....

Out of interest and off topic, I have forgotten when Kings suspension finishes?

Cox (and Kerr I think?) were running alright at training, as shown on Seven News. Will probably play.

If memory serves King will return in round 16.

The Saintsational Man · Tue 07 Jul 2009 11:37pm

It doesn't matter if West Coast had 11 of their best 22 out.

At Subiaco, they are dangerous.

They should never be taken lightly, their crowd is like an EPL crowd and the players feed off it.

jonesy · Post: # 771385Post **jonesy** » Tue 07 Jul 2009 11:44pm

They are a 10 goal better side over there,always have been. Absolute disgrace in Melbourne, but opposite at Subi.

Hopefully they tank and play loose.

A soft going through the motions 32 point win will do me fine. We have nothing else to prove this year as long as we win 4 more and sow up top 2, no need to throw the world at every game,we need to preserve the team for finals footy.
Now that we're a certainty to be thereabouts,I'm starting to stress about injuries on the run home. We have had a dream run finally this year, surely we have to get a couple in the last two months.

SydneySainter · Tue 07 Jul 2009 11:58pm

Last year we came off an amazing win against the hawks, only to lose to a

depressingly under-manned eagles the following week. No win is ever a

given, always one week at a time, I'll live by the cliche as long as it banks

another four points!

skeptic · Post: # 771429Post **skeptic** » Wed 08 Jul 2009 12:49am

Not the best week for a trip to perth... we'll be very tired IMO

i anticipate a closer game then ppl think

Yep, at least some of the WA media has them playing for sure. Listed as tests on the official injury list but according to local media both will play.
Don't take the Weagles lightly at Subi.
Real test of our professionalism and mental strength this week I think.

Beej · Post: # 771455Post **Beej** » Wed 08 Jul 2009 1:46am

After Sunday it's almost inevitable there will be some sort of let down and we'll come out flat.

Ross Lyon earns his cash in games like these.

If we don't come to play we can get rolled. No doubt about it.

kalsaint · Post: # 771463Post **kalsaint** » Wed 08 Jul 2009 2:05am

I know the history but then again so do the players so I dont believe they will be too flat.

I am, however, concerned about the 5 day break to play Essenscum at Etihad the following week (their home game). This pans out just like last time hopefully the Dons dont do so well this time.

Hopefully the guys can get up again as they have the Bullies the week after too.

I think you'll find that we play the crows after the eagles. And it's on a 7 day break.
