Stress Levels?
Me... 7/10, and building.
Higher than this time last year... (it's the filth FFS, and we only have so many shots left with this group).
I've upped all my weights and sessions at the gym to try and burn off some of the stress. No luck!
I'm sure that I'm losing weight by the day.
Heaven or Hell awaits... forget about lids and perspective.
This is it.
Bring it on... or get it over with!
Go The Mighty Saints!!!

Me too ,I have turned SEN off sick of hearing about the filth!jonesy wrote:I'm trying to go on a media ban.
Everytime I crack and turn SEN back on I am greeted by yet another Fwit filth supporter bleating about the brownlow and skyting how they'll win by 80plus......my blood starts to boil,so I turn it off
Not sleeping to well, a lot more stressed then last year,but strangely more confident.

I'm unbelievably calm this year - every now and then I would stop thinking about the Grand Final last year.
This year, every now and then, I think about it.
Mind you, tomorrow we have a footy themed day at work and last year that really hit me how big the game was - so i guess we'll really see tomorrow.
Exciting stuff coming the next few days though.

Strangely calm and dont know why. Im not over confident or anything like that. Just have a strong faith in our boys and Ross.
Although emotion is still running high, shed some tears reading Robert Harvey's beautiful words from Jack Barker's funeral and also still shed tears when anything is shown of our boys after the game last year.
But whether its blind faith or the first signs I might be going mad Im not nervous yet.
I want the flag so bad its a burning pain in my heart but come what may I am proud as anything of our club.

Last year we were the best team in the comp; just had to get to the Grand Final; and given the season we'd had, just had to win it.
This year we've done well to get there against the odds.
Able to enjoy it more now than at this time last year. I'm glad that we are still involved, and it helps that we are underdogs with the ability to give everyone else a shock.
I'm sure the nerves will explode on Saturday morning but right now I'm just looking forward to the game.

Yep. It's all Titans, a little bit about the other League clubs, a whole lot about Collingwood, a bit about the Suns, a skerrick for St K.Born in Moorabbin wrote:Living in Queensland, one might as well be overseas!!!!!

Stress levels good this year. Very calm. Last year I had, um, digestive issues from about the Tuesday onwards. This year I'm excited, but calm.
"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!'
