I'm not sure about beating the Crows too often. We've got a 2-4 record against them at TD (including the howler a couple of years ago when we were 5 goals to zip in front, and then they kicked 15 goals and we kicked another 3. I reckon, though, that we might have them this week. yeah i was there th...

Motivation alone doesn't win you games but lack of it will inevitably lose you games. When we get beaten it's often simply because we don't put bodies in or run with the opposition. It was like that against Collingwood, and for most of the game against Port. On both occasions we either lost or nearl...

Re: Harvey Question
The Age said today Harvey has played with 220 players. Is this a record? Is it more than any other player? My guess is that Bartlett, Tuck and Madden would have played with more settled lineups. Here they are. http://www.saintsational.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=45517 C.Ackland, I.Aitken, J.Allen, T....

The Point of It All
I have a contact in the book industry, and those with a copy of this book may be interested to know that it's now valued at about $400.
I assume there must have been a limited number printed.

Any defence will concede when there's no pressure on the opposition upfield. Our defence may look makeshift but 'pound for pound', a they say, we have one of the better ones in the comp. Our main deficiency is the variability in effort that, seemingly half, the team puts in. Up one week and flat as ...

I'd keep Kosi though... you can replace mids, it's much harder to replace talls who can play (despite his lack of output thus far). Indeed. And Milne, he is a one of a kind player who many on here don't appreciate. It's not his fault that he is on the receiving end of poor delivery / 1 on 3 contest...

Re: Speed factor
... We have Steve Milne & Jason Gram who do similar things but they dont have that 'X' factor ... We do have the X factor, he's been injured most of the year. I'm surprised that you have just realised that we lack leg speed and, in particular, a "burn 'em off" type player. Haven't had...

I get nervous about every damn game - a 50 point margin at 3/4 time gets me starting to feel reasonable. It must be an age thing after years of pain and suffering - football not marriage :D I'm the same. I was still worried last Saturday with 5 minutes left. It was only the Hawthorn supporters stre...

Well, I was going to say that maybe he could assist in developing a new forward structure but then I realised that this would presuppose that we have a forward structure to begin with. There must be a better strategy than 'kick it to Milne'. All it needs is some genius to figure out what it should be.

who is our forward coach and what is he teaching the players? whatever we are paying him, its too much. Agree. Collingwood are quicker than us and got some easy goals as a consequence, but the game was there for the taking, and I left feeling that the better team lost. We did enough defensively to ...

Well, having seen the video of Hall against the Eagles, I can see where the attempted striking thing might come in to play. In the first instance, Hall actually tried to punch the Eagles player, but missed. He then tried to elbow the other guy in the head, but missed again. The final blow was the th...

This is another danger game, just as the Footscray game was. We lost to Essendon last year, and should have lost to them the year before. We no longer have the wood on them. Essendon ran rings round Footscray for a full quarter a couple of weeks ago and would have gone on to win had they not run out...

I have often thought it strange in footy that we expect a player to ignore the whistle and play on when they think they have an advantage, and inflict a 50 metre penalty on them if they get it wrong. I think that the soccer system is best, where if the refereee notices a free kick, and the side ear...

Back to the serious point raised in the original message. The situation is even more ridiculous in rugby union. The ref awards a penalty, but allows play to continue while holding his arm in the air. The play can go on for another minute or so, but if the team with the ball doesn't score, or ends up...
