Pies or Cats? Who do you want?
Ok, it maybe a bit premature, but we pretty much know how it is going to go:
- swans beat Blues
- swans beat Dogs
- Saints beat Swans. Saints into GF.
Other side of the draw:
Cats beat Dockers.
Cats play Pies.
Who wins? Who do we want to play?
However well the Pies go in the meantime, a GF is different and it is the first for most of their players. Some prospect they could be worried out of it. Geelong not so, but we seem to match up on them a bit better.
I'd take the Pies at this point.

I know it's a bit premature but I reckon a non-Saint supporter would be tipping a Saints v Pies or Cats scenario. I'd prefer to play Collingwood. I just hope the Pies v Cats prelim is a spiteful slog resulting in a few odd injuries. So the Pies thrashed the Dogs .... big deal. Let's see them in 2 weeks time.

Exactly, very well put, good call FQF.FQF wrote:I would have thought that out of all supporters, us Sainters would have learned not to take things for granted.
We aren't there yet.
But, IF we make it, I really think Collingwood are still clearly going better than everybody else, so I think I'd rather they lose the Prelim due to inaccurate kicking, but I'm not sure that will happen. They seem to be that much better that they win anyway.
They smashed Geelong a few weeks back and we just got over them the other night and Collingwood also smashed us, so we'll need to really step it up another notch or two, if we play them.

Great question, I've been asking myself for the past 24 hours. We're starting to "own" the pussies, and unless it rains again, I'd be quite confident playing them in the Grand Final. Freemantle would be great, but that's just not going to happen. If it's Collingwood, then I really hope they have a real tough PF against the Cats (not Freo), and are physically and mentally stuft on GF day.

Priority one: win the prelim.
If we make the GF, an awesome well managed and balanced capital T Team, history and the motivation of a cruel loss last year will see us through no matter who we play.

Geelong I think.......Both would be hard....
If we play the Pies, everyone would have written us off and that might work in our favour. The expecation on the filth would be huge.
The image of Nick "Captain Filth never plays on a man" Maxwell holding up the premieship cup just looks wrong....very wrong...
