Loving the poetry that we have one player left from our last crack at 2011... one Captain Geary

Well done Saints. Back from the f****** wilderness!!!!
Want to watch the most boring and devious thing on television and probably in mankind's history, then tune into a daily live press conference at 11am.

Re: Saints are in the finals!
Very emotional stuff. I am so proud of them for the whole season. Overcame the disappointment of so many close losses, to rise to the occasion when it really mattered.
Best of all, we did not limp into the finals - we march in there. We deserve it, and the footy world knows it.
And it was a true team effort. No one had 20+ disposals , but just about everyone made major contributions.
Whatever happens from here, we have taken a big step forward.

Re: Saints are in the finals!
Rapt...in a s*** year ...this has been a real highlight.
I was desperately worried that we were going to slip out or fall over the line...
We have blasted our way right in.
Jones and Gresh to come back ?

Re: Saints are in the finals!
Yeah baby.
That’s what I’m talking about!!
So rapt for the boys - especially JB, Sebby, Skunk - those guys have played heaps of games for us and never a final.

Re: Saints are in the finals!
A great way to get into the finals by thrashing last year's grand finalists and keeping them goalless in the second half. Certainly a lot better than limping in.
Go Saints!!
Go Saints!!

Re: Saints are in the finals!
Pray let me have this one indulgence - the game against Carlton in 1991 which ended 18 years in the finals wilderness.
