Still think Peake is a sneaky chance at norm smith (can't play worse than GF 1)
I must say I found it funny when some people picked peake for the norm smith last week. In 20 games this year I doubt he has been in the top 5 once let alone BOG in a GF. Doesnt make sense to me. Just look at last week, the 2 best Sainters for the year were the best 2.
You make too much sense, lol... I guess we get seduced by the juicy odds offered, i guess he is that price for a reason. Although i had $10 on Gram last year to win the norm smith at $101, as i didn't think he could play anywhere near as badly as he did in the prelim. Nearly got up
Very unlucky. Should have got half the money. Grammy is a superstar on last years form compared to Peake though IMO.

True. But If he had a 20 possession game and kicked maybe three goals....he would have to be in with a shot. :P

Its possible. Well, when he was paying $60-80 it was possible.

Back to the OP....

I reckon this game will be close for a half. I'm hoping we are much better positioned than four goals down at half time. I think that one side will fade in the third and moreso in the last quarter.

That said, I gotta back the saints in here. They are hardly mentally fragile. Would not be out of place saying they are the mentally strongest side in the comp.

WE
DONT
STOP.

Very much agree, we won't be folding.

Exactly how I feel about it!

If there is a team that can go the distance, we'd be the ones!


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