lol the way the year has panned out, i wouldn't be surprised if they put milney back in the reserves to wait for a spot. hehehehehe I reckon Milney has been in terrific form before getting injured and sealed the game against the Lions. He does his best work scooting around the feet of Kosi and Rooe...

Apart from maybe having to play Geelong twice in the finals, if there's no interstate team in the top 4, does it really matter where you finish - 1st or 4th? I reckon that there is enough of a difference between 1st and 2nd let alone 1st and 4th. Come 1st and quite simply you play the fourth best t...

I'm not at all concerned. I've watched ten rounds and I haven't seen a drop off in the effort level. The consistent commitment to doing the hard things gives me confidence that this team isn't afraid of anybody. Hit the nail on the head. There will always be ups and downs during a 22 game season bu...

6 goal win interstate. Yes the boys looked a little flat but still managed to win by 6 goals. The positive is that there is obviously a huge room for improvement and to say that with a team 10-zip is no small matter. Don't forget that May has been pretty tough too. Although we had a larger break bet...

Zac has been fantastic this year but remember he is still relatively young and inexperienced especially when holding down such a key position. I love the bloke and the intestinal fortitude he has shown in turning around his early career form and proving the doubters wrong But... Max is a better back...

Although not the smashing some people wanted, we won which is what is important.

Have a look at the ladder - not at pos. 1 :) but at positions 3,4,5,6 & 8 (after Hawthorn do Melbourne)

All wins against teams in the top 8 with Geelong and Hawthorn to come.

Not Bad

After we get over Brissie... but I'll bite. I wouldn't take any of our opponents lightly in the coming weeks. Brisbane - One Change with Raph for Gram.

I reckon that Riewoldts 'yips' are overstated. All forwards miss goals but the fact remains if you present yourself as often as he does you are going to miss a couple. Just ask Fevola who has had a terrible month. Also remember - he is a CHF. In fact - if you look closly at his stats - he measures u...

Not that crazy I suppose

Wore my Saints jumper on Saturday morning when the missus dragged me along to see the Pope in Paris. Figured if anyone had a line to Barker to ask him to give the boys a helping hand on Saturday it would be that old bugger.

Seemed to have worked.

With GC17 coming in and chewing up valuable early draft pics in the coming seasons I would be very wary of trading away any of our early draft pics over the next few years.

We got done by 58 points today. The cats average winning margin this year has been about 54 points so it's on par with how dominant the cats have been. This is without a doubt the best time to play Geelong with a 'free shot' as it were and make no mistake we came up well short even though we had the...

Can our players hold tackles against these cats players! The cats players seem to be built like brick shithouses. The skinny arms of players like Gilbert, Dal Santo, Clarke simply can't wrap around and pin those gigantic ape like frames. Genetic advantage. How do you beat it!! HOW I ASK! :shock: Fu...

They're awsome through the midfield - we cannot get a tackle to stick. Considering the amount of inside 50's they've had it is amazing we aren't further behind. Even when we hold them for a time - we seem to concentrate so much on this that we do not look like scoring ourselves. An opputunistic snap...

You guys are lucky. Here in Paris, most Parisiens couldn't give a rats arse about their own sporting teams let alone someone elses.
