5 things Saints players need to forget about when playing games of AFL


1. Don’t forget that even though it’s a contact sport you have a duty of care.

2. Be careful not to touch your opponent if you are a little late when contesting.

3. Be disciplined and don’t show any strength or aggression.

4. If there is a chance of hurting your opponent then back off and slow down.

5. If you think that you might hurt your opponent in a tackle, it might be better to just put your arms out rather than showing any physicality.


Seriously. Let’s just win the fuuurckken premiership and stick it up ‘em!!!!

What’s the fuuurgin point of trying to NOT get suspended when the AFL is so inconsistent and makes up it’s own set of different rules for each incident?

If you want the ultimate prize, then there will be casualties and there will be blood and there will be sacrifices. If we have the right attitude we can go all the way. Be ruthless, tough, ferocious at winning back the footy and aggressive at each contest.

The only thing that Saints players need to think about is winning at ALL costs.

6. All opposition can do points 1 to 5 without being reprimanded. It's encouraged and points scored hurting any saints player will be subtracted from any future offence

All they have to do these days is lead with their Elbows .
As has been shown over the last few years , If you knock someone out you only get 1 week , and if the player is ok then you get away with it !
