Saints Purple Patch
For some reason, many teams at times during a season , enjoy a purple patch. Lack of injuries, confidence from a series of wins and a bit of luck can contribute.
Whilst I don't underestimate the loss of Matt M (now in Europe) and who knows about X, our team seems fitter, collectively, than at any time during the year. Can the color purple last?

We kicked of 2004 with 10 in a row but couldn't finish off.
This year we are a good chance to finish the H&A season with 10 wins in a row!! - that should be a confidence builder - going into September with 10 in a row and a double chance....

Imagine you're in a desert, no food or water and everyone is talking about a nice clear glass of water.
It's only a matter of time before you start thinking "cold beer".
We are all very very thirsty.

I don't miss him, I think he's too front on and not lateral enough in his movement for 2008 footy if that makes any sense?!saintjake wrote:i still miss the goose though.
the arrogance he carried himself with,
when he was up and about, so was the team.
As for our "new" run and fitness, perhaps Misson has successfully implemented the Sydney-style fitness base whereby the team's fitness levels peak at the right end of the season after a slow build up.
Certainly appears that way at the moment.
