Off the topic a bit.

Just thought about Ray as the forward marking option.

Not overly tall but boy can he take a contested mark.

Wonder if he can take a mark on a strong lead or is smart enough to find and make space in the forward line.

Well I think the reason is that it would be great to have a third tall who is hard as nails to make someone like Hodge accountable in a Grand Final like last year. Geelong, the bench mark and recipient of these tactics have addressed this by playing Rooke forward. Gwilt did a pretty good job of this...

Bring my man in now. Giving him a chance up forward frees up Kosi if required. Playing down back frees up Fisher or takes the pressure off Dawson. He is however my favorite player and I am wearing those Rose coloured glasses. Obviously if he were to come back in one must leave. For mine King out aga...

Geelong have changed their side a fair bit but they have had a fair few injuries. If you are winning with no passengers there should really be no resting of players. They are so strong even without the best player (Gazza) and Chappy they are still able to smash the opposition. Sides hardly ever rest...

Wow.

Thought someone might have a different point of view.

Brilliant player.
Club Legend.
Well done

For weeks we have been told we haven't beaten anyone. Well, now we have beaten half of the competition. Although four points is all you can win in a game I'm interested to see how people rate our victories in importance. For me it's 1. Surprisingly Sydney. They came to play and smashed us in the fir...

Blake had a fair limp when walking around the rooms after the game.
Nothing serious by the looks of it.

Personally I would like to see Raph in for Geary.
Also would like to see Big Mac have one more go with King resting for one more.
I think Raph is in our best 18 and could be in the top 10 by seasons end.
This said I think it will be no change or King in for Big Mac if King is good to go.

You know the Collingwood one who came in during the week.

I seem to recall letting him know he could come back in for a visit after the game.

I think that there are at least ten guys who could play well as the 22nd man in this Saints side.

They just need to play a role well enough and any deficiencies will not come through as we keep winning.

Am I obsessed?

I even want Melbourne to win today so they are less likely to get a priority pick (pushing our pick back one).

If 6 days isn't enough for a player to get up they would be retired.

My man.

You beauty.

Turn the T.V. and started watching, the ball was in Sandy's defence and I couldn't see Goose so I was concerned then saw him burst the pack for a great mark up forward and I was stoked.

Must be close to a re-call

Thank god we haven't seen the last of him.

Nothing against Eddy.

I quite like him really.

I think Raph can become a dominant player and was on the cusp of doing so.

Not so Eddy.

I think that Raph will come back in for Eddy.

He is highly regarded and played a great game marking everything last time we played them.

However, this may just be what I want (not Ross).

In Ross we trust

Its funny how reading a report only slightly biased towards Collingwood makes me even more confident the Saints will win. All the requirements listed for Collingwood to win seem unlikely and I think Dawson will smash an over-rated out of form Rocca (if he plays). This said I bet Geelong didn't think...

It says $10 on the radio.
Kids free.
Only been once myself and cant remember

Yeah good on you mate.

What ever makes you happy. Sounds like too much hard work to me.

Keep it going and make them come and get you

All the best X
Another 11 months in the gym, come back bigger and better.

I'm amazed how Blake seemed to improve very quickly last year at his age. He went from a whipping boy to consistently good player and even matchwinner (verses Hawks in H&A). His improvement this year has been in line with the teams and although he is one who is keeping my man Goose out could not...

It was in a newspaper article. Just saw it on "one week at a time" and there was a quote from Goddard in the article about how they feared Ray was soft and they told him as much on arrival.

In an industry where one week changes peoples perspectives on so much why SaintsRrising both bringing this up

He'll be a two time premiership captain by the time gold coast come around.

Not to mention the Saints will be on a 50 game winning streak.

Raph definitely back in. Absolute gun.

Tough call on Gwilt possibly Mini instead for mine.

However thats a tough call on Mini.
