who is confident of saints bouncing back on sunday?

[jakestar1]

i am quietly confident but you can never be too confident as last week showed
anyone else

[marksnsparks]

Who the hell knows with the Saints.

Their only consistency is their inconsistency.

All we can do is keep the support, keep cheering, and keep the faith.

[Batnoe]

I hate to say it... but it is the loss we needed, we went in too cocky, just like the fans

we shouldnt have won the Hawks game- but we did
we shouldnt have lost the eaglies game- but we did

if we had lost to hawks and won against eagles we would be in 9th spot anyway... there is still time and we will turn it on

[Furphy]

I am quite apprehensive about the next 3 weeks. We are playing three traditional "hoo doo" teams we rarely beat, regardless of their position on the ladder.

[thejiggingsaint]

I am!!!! (is this accepting mediocrity? )

[Dan Warna]

Confidence is a fragile thing

look at the dogs, they lost to carlton

Carlton are a rubbish side, but riding high, very high on confidence and self belief.

As is frustration, Goddard lost it, (and I don't blame him) you do all the right things and the random decision goes against you, in what was a tight game, its soul destroying.

Even Ball looked like the frustration was getting on top of him.

we lost the 4 points crying about it won't bring it back, but the players weren't the only force deciding the outcome of the game.

[brown-coat]

Hell yes i am confident.

That game was abysmal, disgraceful, appalling.

I think the saints have shown enough character over the month they'll get their act together and start playing some proper fricking football.

Confident we are going to bounce back ???

I wouldn't be going would i ...

They ahve to bounce back sometime and why not be next week ???

[perfectionist]

Mark Williams just announced that they will be experimenting for next year and will play youngsters. Their rucks are depleted and Tredrea is out for the year. Cornes is also out for the year, leaving them with no marking forward.

SO?

We're goners!

[bigcarl]

we will win.

we owe port big time and they will find it a different story at the dome, where they have rarely played us.

i'd expect us to come out breathing fire after saturday's terribly disappointing effort.

[saintsrus]

We need the media to jump on us but looks like we are getting away with it so far

[bobmurray]

I'm hoping we have a good win against Port but you never know how the Saints are going to play on match day...You can be elated,you can be frustrated,you can be disappointed......

[nicko016]

We generally bounce back pretty well just as the media start writing us off again, just like we generally drop the bundle when the media starts talking us up. But thus far, we have actually escaped the media's attention.

[jakestar1]

i think we will win because we have so much on the line and port have salopek and treadrea out and we get kosi in

[derby Street]

Who knows with the saints - Weagles have been pretty poor but they handled us with ease in the end. The saints have a sorry record against the Powerless ones who will also have a few out with injury. That should just about make it a win for them.
I will be hoping rather than expecting this weekend !

It's been a while! Ahhh, the phrase that defined 2007.

'Quietly confident', even when will be raging favourites - gotta love that.

We need the media to jump on us but looks like we are getting away with it so far

Because they are too scared to have a crack at Ross Lyon, knowing they knifed GT.

The media is so soft on us, it's pathetic. Turn the screws.

[Stephen Theodore]

The Bookies are confident: St Kilda - $1.17
Pt Adel - $5.00

[Eastern]

Confidence is medeocre but rising. I suspect that I'll be very confident by the time I head off to the game on Sunday. Knowing that its joffaboy's shout will further add to that confidence !!

[makemytime]

if maxy is out injured... those odds may not be so kind.

anyways, some of us can't stress enough that we may very well have needed the loss to spur us into the realisation - that despite the good form we have shown we are still not good enough just yet. sure the eagles game was a let down and we should've won considering roo was on fire but we made mistakes, kicked some poor shots and in the end, let the eagles sneak a win.

we need and we will bounce back

[Eastern]

News tonight that Tredrea & Salopek are out for the season lifts the confidence a bit !!

[remboy]

Kosi's back, Treadrea is out, it's at the Dome and last week was an abberation. We'll do it easy (he says crossing fingers, toes and anything else that can be crossed).

[supersaints]

I am hopefull as usuall, we really need this win... come on boys !!!!

[plugger66]

We will win this week but we are less than 50/50 against the Pies and Freo.

[The_Dud]

should we win/do i think we're a better team = yes

am i confident we'll win = ......not overly?

[Griggsy]

im sure after last week alot of planning will be going into this match. everything will be looked at. im confident that the boys can bounce back.

But every team is always a threat, you never know when that under performing team will fire up. Port is a capable side and should be treated with the same attitude as was against the hawks.
