Monday too far away!

Milan Faletic · Wed 05 May 2010 10:28pm

Is anyone feeling like me....the game is so far away.

At least after a Friday night game, you get the Friday paper with the tips, the post game ramble, the Sat morning papers, the radio, the Foxtel and Ch10 coverage on Sat.

With a Saturday game, you get the actual game and radio coverage, the Sunday paper and the Sunday footy shows.

On Sunday you get the game and then Monday's paper and the Monday footy shows.

But we have to wait until after work on Monday to get to the game (which I will be doing) or watch on TV. Then if we win, you can't (or maybe you can) keep celebrating late because of work the next day.

At least On the Couch is on the Tuesday!

Anyway I guess the main thing is that we win!

Too long to wait!!... However I do console myself with the fact that it gives the boys extra time to freshen up and smash the brownbaggers!

Tuesday is normally the slowest news day of the week for the papers. Next Tuesday will be 6-8 pages of our game. Lets hope we make it well past 100 points with a 6-7 goal win. That should have a large number of journos changing their tune !!

Like it!

Can't believe Ratten talked about the losing streak today. Most coaches would dis-count that and say the old cliche that they can only control Monday's game.

RL should be rubbing his hands together.

Yep, agree with that!

I imagine that there will be quite a few footy hungry Saint supporters going to watch Sandy at the weekend. And even the Seconds, if there is a chance Jesse Smith will be playing.

That 6`7 goal win hopfully will include 7 or 8 from Kosi to shut a few ppl in the press up.

Yes it's crap.

I don't get the paper delivered on Tuesday, but am starting work at midday so I'll wander down the street to get a copy to read about the great win.

Monday Night footy is great in America - the NFL games are an institution - dunno though if it will work here.

I certainly loved watching NFL on Monday Night's on TV when in the States for several months many moons ago.....I'd be all for it as a regular thing provided we only play once a year......likewise for Sunday Twilight if we weren't in that slot every second friggin week

Just saying that when waiting for an assessment time flies past...

I think we should ask for some more 6 day breaks!

Its just not right to return to work after a weekend without your team playing yet. Horrible horrible horrible. It's good for the team, not so much me.

I reckon the players will be thrown out a bit too. They will enjoy the break so let's hope they jump out of the blocks on Monday night. At least we will know all the results of the weekend.
