Stopping St Nick

Can they do it? Roo is in excellent form at the moment almost career best or so it seems, orthe very least playing full of confidence. With the added attention it makes it more important for our other forwards to play a bigger role.
I guess stanley may be needed more in the ruck this week or it will test out Hickeys tank. Perhaps its time for Maister to hold onto some of those marks. Our forward line needs to get it right this week especially as we may be under sized down back, we need not only pressure from our mids but pressure on the scoreboard as well.

Thoughts anyone? How do we win? :)

We win by kicking more goals than them by our mid field dominating and our back line standing up ..simple really.

Darren Glass has always played well on Nick - unfortunately.

Felix may have a few strategic ideas for us on how to Nick can get around Glass :wink:

hasn't worked in any grand final we've been in since 1966


The Saints are under review, will it make any difference to the underachievers ?

a respectful article...

The important thing is that if he gets well held its because there are 2 on him, freeing up one of our other forwards to play loose...

c'mon sainters!!
