You're sort of right - you would think that such an irrelevant team wouldn't even be on a St Kilda supporters radar. But they are, because we know that they keep beating us - even though they're irrelevant.jonesy wrote:I don't get the hate a lot of our supporters have for the dockers?
They just evoke no emotion from me,they are irrelevant, there laughable exsistance is bearly noticed.
It'll be hard to get excited about thrashing them this week apart from the obvious % boost we get
They're that irrelevant I didn't even realise this stat ? Surely it's incorrectcasey scorp wrote:jonesy wrote:I don't get the hate a lot of our supporters have for the dockers?

That failure of a team has actually beaten us more times than we have beaten them.
No, its quite correct. We have played them 21 times. We've won 10, and lost 11.jonesy wrote: They're that irrelevant I didn't even realise this stat ? Surely it's incorrect
Regardless of which, it's never about the Dockers being Shockers, but the Saints being Cheats.But after half time, the Dockers unveiled "Operation Finish Lower than Port"
Great post mate, i will just say this " Never under estimate winless teams" they can do the impossible............ just have respect for them Saints thats all i ask and i am hoping we do that and come away with the four points.Thinline wrote:If you're not catching a glimpse of the tongue in the cheek of that particular Docker scribe then you take yourself far too seriously.
Still, I hope we dismantle them with the precision of a surgeon and the ruthlessness of an Rd1/2/3 2009 Saint. Our goal should be for every Saint to beat his opponent. The score will look after itself.
Geez they must be a tough side to follow, Freo...
Imagine a Dockers side without Pavlich. She's a pretty bare old cupboard if he's gone...
Imagine how deflating it would be to have a seven foot ruckman who can't win a clean ruck contest...
Imagine how frustrating it would be to have a rising star in Rhys Palmer who can't hit the side of a barn from two feet away...
Imagine owning a purple scarf...
Imagine having Mark Harvey as your coach...
I've tossed a hundred on 'em for the spoon. All the money's on the Demons. I reckon the Demon's have a little bit of spark that will net them a game or two. Freo have no enthusiasm, no structure, no players, no plan and they have no alternative other than to lose and rebuild.
Still, don't drop the ball Sainters. Treat 'em with the respect you'd pay a premier...
yep, it's horrible. but i guess it is a fansite so they've got something of a responsibility to be partisan.Winmar7Fan wrote:That's the most unprofessional B grade Article I've ever read. Did a 16 year old write that? Blowing wind up themselves for stages of the game when they lost and labeling us as cheats and blaming poor umpiring from games in the past?
It's just making them look like bigger second rate fools than they already are and lowers their credibility even more if that's possible.
If someone wrote an article like that for us I'd be embarrassed.

Certainly some tongue-in-cheek there... some vitriol too.Thinline wrote:If you're not catching a glimpse of the tongue in the cheek of that particular Docker scribe then you take yourself far too seriously.
The Dees have backbone, spirit and always give it a go. Big difference to the shockers. Still the Saints must come out and play maximum pressure footy. This is the AFL comp - all teams can get up on any given day.Thinline wrote: I've tossed a hundred on 'em for the spoon. All the money's on the Demons.

Exactly thats why we need to show respect to winless teams if we do that we are certain to take the four points on gameday.yipper wrote:The Dees have backbone, spirit and always give it a go.
