Got to say am more excited by tonights game than I have been in a while.
Prior to the ins and outs this was gonna be a bit of a snore.
We win and we've beaten no one. We lose and well, season over.
However now that we have had a bit of a jolt in team selection I'm very interested in seeing how the team responds. Suddenly we have new blood who have everything to play for and a team who have been sent a very clear message.
At least its kept it interesting.

I'm more worried than excited. Against Freo at home...how sad is that?

Really looking forward to seeing McEvoy & Allen, as well as Eddy, Armitage, Jones & Geary.

That's exactly why I'm heading in there tonight. Great to see these blokes given a chance to show off what they've got to offer. Rain, Hail or shine I'll be there in full voice! I'm just a bit gutted the group hasn't been able to stand up with the names we've got in there already...anwyay...

You should also include McQualter and Gwilt in that lot as well.

The way we've been playing, I'm curious to see McEvoy, Eddy and Allen, and seeing Gwilt get a bit more playing time that he did against the dogs... i'm really interested to see what McQualter can do with the opportunity and whether Armitage can back up his performance for Casey last week.

Otherwise, I can't say I've been able to get excited about a Saints game this year since we dropped the game against Collingwood.

I'm sure the opening bounce will fix that

Not optomistic about our chances with 8 players <20 games (Geary and Jones as well, and Gilbert's got 26)... Freo are better than their record shows. They've struggled between the ears (as always), and our lineup is very green.

this week offers somthing differant every week this year we have pretty much been served up the same crap week in week out with new blood new enthusiasm we are in for somthing differant ...... weather its a good differant or bad differant who knows ... but remember the first NAB cup game how there was desperation determination and passion in the club ??? lets hope the kids bring more of that
