We are underdogs tonight

At least according to the tipsters in the Herald sun most of them have picked Hawks to beat us.

Even our loyal Warne has tipped Saints only by 1 point.

Everyone on The Footy Show last night tipped the Hawks.

Mind you, they all tipped the Dockers to beat us and then all tipped the Cats to do the same.

So in the end, that all means zilch 8-)

We're very hard to beat at Etihad Stadium.

Hawks are flying but we have something to prove.

Pretty confident here. I'd be snaffling up whatever odds I could get.


Clueless and mediocre petty tyrant.

Meh, not surprised.

Teams like Geelong will always get the benefit of the doubt in 'they just had a bad day at the office', cause they've proven their good for a flag.

Us, until we get one, many will still have their doubts about us and our usual critics will write us off the moment we have an off day.

+1
Will probably be close to $2 by game time... hold off as long as possible!

Hawks are certainties, their recent form shows this, they've won 2 of the last 10 games between the two sides.

Granted one of those wins does count a little more than the rest, it's not a great record, we deserve favouritism.


Life is very short and there's no time for fussing and fighting my friends.

It'll never happen, not even if we win the next 5 premierships.

im confident of a 20+ point win tonight.

Might even have a look at what odds are available between 20 and 40 points

Happy with the underdog status...... there will be no complacency in the playing group as a result.

I believe if we won last week, we would have lost tonight...but since we coughed it up last week and looked like we were having a little snooze, I wouldn't be surprised if we gave the Hawks an absolute smashing! I'm feeling quietly confident!


When they created LENNY HAYES (in the shadow of Harvs) they forgot to break the mold (again)- hence the Supremely Incredible Jack Steven!!

You know that "8 point games" are not actually worth 8 points.

I'm looking for the boys to atone!!

If we go down fighting fair enough , but I wanna see 4Qs of Saintsfooty and capitalising on goal scoring opportunities tonight regardless

the Hawks might just be due to drop one , particularly if we can get that bite back and shut them down like we are capable of

Will be very disappointed to see a repeat of last weeks effort!

Holy s*** you're right!! :D.

Seriously could I be any more stupid. We started the week two points AHEAD of them. Ugh, I'm so dumb sometimes.
