If we do repeat this, disappointed won't be the word.

On the negative side, this team caved in to Port like the Saints of old earlier this year. Maybe it's worth a Roo injection into the side?

Just like you, I hope your fears will appear unfounded when the siren goes on Saturday night and another 4 points are banked.

I just feel really confident about the game and see it as a chance for this team to write their own history. It wasn't that long ago that we were certainties to lose on the road, last year we won every game interstate and this year we won twice in Subiaco in 3 weeks.

This group has the right stuff and Saturday night is another chance for another hoodoo to be put to rest.

It is a danger game. The biggest danger is that we become complacent next week after our thrashing of Brisbane!

my gut feeling here is that we will put in a disappointing performance that will put the focus on whether or not we're too reliant on Riewoldt who will do 2 or 3 nice things at a crucial time but will be otherwise ineffective

Remember what we did to Melbourne in the last quarter, tire them out, then go for the kill....

GO SAINTS!

True!

Should never have doubted them, that's 2 wins from our last 3 trips to the gabba and 4 wins from our last 5 trips to the sunshine state!!

Never in doubt!!

Go Saints!!!

Great to hear the song blasting out at the gabba, didn't play it last time or back in 91!
