Anyone else like me?

Spare a thought for Saints supporters living in the Geelong area, everywhere there are gocats signs and bumper stickers people are still flying the flags on cars, it is a living hell. I hate them.

So so true. I know if we had won I'd be basking in the glory as long as I could, but that doesn't make me hate Geelong and their supporters any less.
And as for bumper stickers, have you seen the latest? Something along the lines of "Two out of Three Aint Bad".

Hang in there, Debi. You and your family will triumph. If we win next year, you can be proud that you stuck in there. You can do the Nutbush in Little Malop Street

My heart truely goes out to the people that live in the Geelong area.

Note - Time to change your signature

It just happens to be my name and has nothing to do with our former coach.

and thats what s***s me. Even if we win in 2010 we don't get this one back. It's still a flag we should have, but will never ever get back. Bugger it.

it's funny but in all the years I have supported the saints I have never felt so far away from it, yet for 5 mins .....

Obviously the grand final result knocked me on my ass like most people.

Then slowly but surely was moving on, but every now and then the bloody thing comes back and haunts you and you find yourself thinking about it out of nowhere.

Had a bad week, wish I could move on.

I like you, but get a life.

Next year it all starts again, get over it.

I agree. Just don't tell anyone.

Is thread full of people who are going to tell me to keep a lid on it next season?

I watch very little TV and use my old VCR even less. FTA TV bores me in an age of choices, and Foxtel IQ is heaps easier than VCR'ing.

Anyway, presently I sat down, turned on the TV and wah-laa - I had sat on the VCR remote and the Grand Final (last quarter!!) began playing. Somehow, the TV was in the wrong AV mode and luck ran wild.

I turned it off straight away.

Ten minutes later, after having a bite to eat, I hesitated to press play again.

Scores were level in the last quarter.

Dal Santo kicked out from full-back, it went to Kosi on the wing whose mark was spoiled.


THAT WAS ALL I COULD AND WILL WATCH.


Stupidly and irrationally devastating still.


But devastating nonetheless.

Yeah it does, but that's what I need. Got plenty of distractions, got engaged, love my job etc. But the job is sport related so get force fed grand final talk most days, hence hard to get over it

Well I have actually pulled out both round 14 and the grand final and made the following observation.

We actually played better in the grand final except for atrocious kicking. Rather than losing a 30 point lead (as done in round 14) we actually should have had a 24 point lead at half time in the grand final.

We better learn to kick straight next year. Clear the mind and keep things simple when they are simple (and they were).

C'mon 2010. We can do it. The journey is still another marathon and the game plan will be nullified to some extent by astute opposition coaching to some extent.


Nevertheless, 2010 should still be the year of the Saints as long as pressure is maintained and ball movement remains quick to forwards. We also need some assistance in and under that is consistent over 2010. We must win and Geelong must lose.
