I think it will be Round 6 against Adelaide.

Can't see us bearing Brisbane.

Not quite, but almost, as good as your thread on how many of our draft picks would be duds.

Should we bookmark this one too?

pencil in round 19 against gold coast.

how different would this have all been if we'd played them in round one and ryan gamble had kicked six on debut? not the funnest draw ever.

Round 5 v Brisbane. I would expect them to be breathing fire after the cook they copped from the coach last night !!


NEW scarf signature (hopefully with correct spelling) will be here as soon as it arrives !!

I hope the Easter Bunny brings a win, but rather than breathe fire, what they should be doing is spending 6, no make that 10 hours a day, learning, developing and practising skills - you know - handball and kicking. Last year, Essendon's handball let them down in many games. Now, it is almost faultless. So it can be taught. Our handball is pathetic. Let's just go back to the basics rather than spend countless hours in team meetings discussing tactics. If you can handball and/or kick the ball to teammates then the game is already half won.

In all seriousness- Round 9 v Melbourne, and I expect that to be our only victory before Round 14 and the next bye.

Tell me where the win is coming from otherwise?
5- Brisbane- 50/50 at the Gabba
6- Adelaide- very hard ti beat at AAMI at night
7- Carlton- will cut a swathe through our midfield and defence
8- Hawthorn- bigger bodies will kill us in the middle
9- Melbourne- if it were at the G we'd be in trouble, but they're ordinary and we should get up
10- Freo at Subi- very doubtful
11- Collingwood
12- Western Bullldogs
13- Geelong
14- Bye

A Lot easier after that

15- North
16- Port
17- West Coast
18- Adelaide at Etihad
19- Gold Coast
20- Freo at Etihad
21- Collingwood
22- Sydney
23- North
24- Carlton

I hate to say it, but we'll do well to win 8 games

On current form,that's an amazingly tough draw! It is not that outragous to suggest we could be sitting second bottom at the halfway mark

Maybe you should take a long walk off a short pier Einstein.

What drivel are you going to write about at the end of this season to litter the home page of Saintsational?

Oh yes, we can dream indeed!

Were they not breathing fire after the pathetic draw last week against the hopeless Tigers??

Clearly they are struggling to breathe ATM let alone breathe fire!

IMO Brisbane will be a bit sharper up top than us - remember they got close to beating Melbourne away from home, so they can't be completely hopeless.

All in all, looks like a very bad game coming up!

Poor skills displayed by the Saints yesterday. You would hope that Ross Lyon would spend some at training working on skills. Another thing, can we at any time soon kick straight. Worst conversion in the competition.

If we continue to play the same old duds that we have been playing so far, we are in for a dismal year. Over the next five or six weeks I hope we blood WinmaR, Johnson, Walsh, and give Lynch another go. They cannot do worse than the likes of Gamble and Jones etc.

In all seriousness I think it will be round 5 against brisbane. If not that then round 6 against Adelaide.

To be honest I am disgusted at the absolute garbage that has been posted on her the last couple of weeks. We are an embarrassement and sound like a bunch of Collingwood ferals.

Tonight about 9.30pm should have this one wrapped up. Will be a nice night for markin the high ball and kicking 13 - 16 goals.
Rooey with 4 or 5, kosi and milney with 3 each, maybe even old Stanley will nail a couple of em, and the rest to be put through by the mids and flankers.
That should just about do it.
