The nerves are building...
I'm starting to feel incredibly nervous about tomorrow night, like many of the posters on this site. The rational side of me tells me that we're the real deal, and that we'll account for the bulldogs by 4-5 goals. But the other side is trying to tell me to fear the worst, given our previous stumbles at this stage in recent times. There's no doubt that these feelings are gonna continue and intensify up to the opening bounce, and it will be a challenge to maintain. I'm just hoping that the boys can just provide me with some reassurance once the game gets underway, and so erase these pessimistic thoughts which are trying to creep into my mind.
In saying all this, I'm also absolutely pumped about tomorrow night, and it cant come soon enough. GO SAINTS!

I have been feeling sick all week...never felt like this previously except during a game.Probably means that this game is the most important of 43 years of hoping
...have imagined the win and the loss with the ensueing emotion at least one hundred times
..still believe we are a real deal despite theses feelings...
As a mate a work said "the Bulldogs will have to play a blinder to beat you " ...made me feel a tad better
...go Saints ![Cool 8-)](./images/smilies/icon_cool.gif)

Barely slept last night.
This stupid rumour about Dal rolling his ankle doesn't help my nerves either.
If this is bad imagine next week.

"The inches we need are everywhere around us. They're in every break in the game. Every minute, every second. On this team we fight for that inch. On this team we tear ourselves and everyone around us to pieces for that inch. We claw with our fingernails for that inch. Because we know when we add up all those inches that's gonna make the f***in' difference between winning and losing! Between living and dying!'

congrats mate on the new arrival (does put things in perspective). we had a baby last season!Buckets wrote:I have been lucky! Normally I am an absolute wreck by now but with my baby being born on Tuesday I have been so totally occupied. That is until late last night when it hit me!
Now the nerves have kicked in. CARN THE SAINTS!!!!!!!!!!!!
but having said that, this waiting is killing me. i keep trying to do work, but find myself frequenting afl.com, heraldsun.com, theage.com and of course here (which is all making me even more nervous).
we deserve to be favourites, we deserve to win this... but that counts for nothing. i'll feel much better when we kick the first goal of the game.
GO SAINTERS
p.s. and its delayed telecast up here in brissie, so i have to try to wait an hour and not turn on the internet!!!

A nervous week, not the least of which is because I had to book a plane ticket home 3 weeks ago for GF week. Then last night i had a peaceful sleep because i simply thought:
1. The best side will win
2. We are the best side
It sounds funny saying it to other saints supporters, but lets keep the faith!!
