Why we'll win by six goals

Post: # 1005539Post Toy Saint »

We proved last week that we can beat them one-on-one. We can stop their better players, Didak, Pendlebury and Swan.

We have players like Goddard & Riewaldt and Hayes and Fisher and Gilbert that they cant stop.

Their young bodies and minds won't be able to get up for three Grand Finals in successive weeks (remember the Geelong match was considered the default Grand Final)

We will not give them a head start, in fact if we take a decent lead into half time, they will not be physically or mentally tough enough to fight back.

We will have a Ruckman. Last week when Kosi was in the ruck we had no tall target in the forward line. When Kosi was resting we had no tall target for the full back kick in.

We have "owned" this mob for the past few years, even magpie fans realise Round 16 was an aberation. The Saints were not healthy that day.

Well worth a punt at +39

Profitable call.

The point about them having already played two grand finals is exceptionally good.

We've played 3 very tough, close finals v Geel, WB, and the Coll GF draw.

They've played two easy win finals v WB, Geel, then one tough one.

I seem to think this favours us, but you could mount an argument the other way too.

I hope so.

10 goals would be better.

I will still be happy with our lucky 44. Milney to kick a bag, Roo dominates Brown, pies so focused on GODdard and Hayes that Schniderman destroys them with a six goal quarter. Saints by 44 points Milney BOG. The media love a good story and that would be a nice way to do it.

At $9 too..............been wanting to pull the trigger on this bet all week with my Norm Smith winnings..

But the Mozz word keeps popping into my head.

Don't think I will bother......

I ve already entered into one syndicate up here in Coolangatta, had to knock back a GF ticket from a mate (devastated!!), but will go and drop some cash on us for a big win! I've got a feeling Milne and Schnides are going to go nuts!!


When they created LENNY HAYES (in the shadow of Harvs) they forgot to break the mold (again)- hence the Supremely Incredible Jack Steven!!

I actually believe that if we win this one, we could back up with another one in the next 3 years.
Once this group get's this 2nd premiership monkey of it's back, they will have enough belief to do it again in the near future.
The good news is that the core group are young enough to keep the side in the top 4 for a few years yet.

I think we can win as the Pies will be now concentrating on at least two of our players -BJ and Lenny. Just a thought, but I think Armo may come in as a last moment change for Gram, and if Lenny is getting a heavy tag, Armo would take up the slack. The Pies like to make the play, but having to use extra defensive plays will upset their team's balance, as if they can't play their fast, free flowing attacking game, they don't seem to have plan B. The Saints love nothing better than a slow messy ugly game where teams fall into our trap. Saints by 19

Exactly, we're talking 36 points here.

Saints Footy, at it's best, is more than capable of producing such a result.

No, I want to beat them in a way we know we got it early in the last.
Similar to the Prelim, except we are in front like we we're in QF against Geelong at half time.
