Does this mean we actually get some cash from the gate ?

Opinions from those who were at the ground please.

% Sainters v Tiges in the crowd ?

Noise levels from both ?

Am keen to know about the noise level as some games I have been too I am often left wondering if we have a lot of speech impaired supporters. Perhaps it is just me ,, my voice is usually quiet in the 2nd half as I have already yelled too much .. Carn 'n' Saints.

Noise level next week must be huge. Hopefully our numbers will out number the Cats.


What will be next from this club ?

Cheer squad tried hard - but there was very little noise - I left my voice there - but got too many harsh looks from the people on level two Medallion club - there were 2 young Tiger girls (tweens) who actually seemed louder than the rest of the Sainters there - found it funny that they were just yelling 'you suck Reiwoldt' at the start - then Jack started missing - I was going to offer to help them chant it!

could hear the cheersquad on tv
but sometimes when they do the 'lets have another one just like the other one' it gets lost and inaudible.
i didnt think theyd crack 35 tho.

this weeks its our game....surely we'll pull some big $$ with it being a sell out

The "Kosi, Kosi, Kosi" chant could be heard clearly.

Cameras caught Koschitzke giving the cheer-squad a nice smile during one of the chants.

The Richmond supporters made heaps of noise. There were probably 15,000+ there but damn they're loud.

I'd say the majority were Saints fans (15,000/23,000 split), it was a good crowd and we made some noise when the saints got on top.

Got to hand it to the Tigers supporters though. Loyal through and through and now how to support a football team.

Actually what was really funny was Koschitzke running up and giving the other cheer squad a leer after his fifth (?). They were going nuts at him and he was lapping it up. :lol:

Certainly looked like a dominant Saints turnout - easily 4 or 5 to 1 from what I could see.

That section of Tigers fans behind their goals made more noise than the entire St.Kilda crowd. We need rough nut supporters that give the opposition the s***s.

i dont know why everyone gives the cheer squad sh!t?
for the first time since i joined the cs, i didnt sit with them, i was up on level 3 with a tigers mate, above the richmond cs.
in all seriousness, i heard ours more than theirs. the kosi kosi chant could probably be heard from the Gabba if they listened hard, it was bloody awsome! could hear every chant and could see every flag and banner!

i just didn't find the game that exciting, personally. no moments where i got up out of my seat to celebrate something - geary's goal in the third was the closest - and the result seemed a foregone conclusion even when a couple of goals down in the first. not sure i made any noise at all. i mean, they're not all corkers.

next week, on the other hand...

Agree with above sentiments..there wasnt that much atmosphere

I think the loudest noise was in the 1st quarter when we werent playing well...but it was all negative LOL...rtoo many people turn up when we play a bottom side, sit back and say "Right-o, 15 goal win or I'm gonns start whinging...and whinge they did in the 1st quarter. No allowance given for the Tigers throwing everything at us and playing some quite decent footy.It was all about our errors and our "stuffing around with hand passing when we've got 2 big forwards in the goal square". Never mind the 16 Tigers defenders also sitting in the goal square ready to smash a rushed behind every time we bombed it.

As someone said to me at 1/4 time "It doesnt feel like a Saints supporters area right now..I cant feel the love"

A lot of goals from set shots also doesnt help, although Kosis big pack marks were greeted with probably the loudest roars of the day

To get everyone fired up against the Tiges, we needed soneone to kick 10, or one of our lesser lights to really start tearing the place up. CJ kicking 4 would have blown the roof off :-)

Hey SAINT DOOLEY I was at the game on Sunday and waiting to see my donated Another Saints Go Marching Win banner go up at the end of the match. Remember I mentioned this a few weeks back. Should be in the bag and it's the perfect banner to raise when we win. If you guys don't want to use it - I'm happy to take back and use. All the best to you and the team. Give em hepas next Sunday

I was sitting on the axcess 1 side of the ground (members section) and the noise, considering the type of game it was, was acceptable in my opinion by saints fans. I fully expect that if we get on a roll this week that we'll lift the roof off.

Saintdooley, please don't tell me that one of the cheer squads chants is 'WE want another one just like the other one, goals goals goals whooa.'

No I haven't. I usually sit in the AFL members and never hear the cheers squad as they are up the other end of the ground. (Although I do occasionally hear some high pitched squealing coming from the CS end) :lol:

So I take it that is one of the chants then?

Sunday Twilight = shyte atmosphere.

Simple.

IF the game had been a Friday or Saturday night - completely different thing.

Everyone is resentful of this bullshyte timeslot, with one eye on the time clock and thinking about work on Monday!

Also, people are tired as it's the end of the weekend.

Thanks for 6 twilight zone time slots Dimwitfarkwit......and don't you dare screw us with so many next year OK? :twisted:

How about you don't do the "we want another one chant" then?

That would be a great start. :)

You know everybody hates it, it's as if you guys do it just to piss everybody off.
