The pre season games are for new draftees and rookies. No wonder a team full of kids played the better football in a meaningless preseson game in there home town.

Particularly Dal looked disinterested- at one point he gave away a free and he was standing still watching when the Giants player barrel into his legs. He seemed to be doing a lot of flat footed gazing. I don't think many established players besides Joey and Steven looked too concerned with winning that game.

Is that a good or a bad thing, Gringo?

Does it bug anyone else that GWS will win basically 4-6 flags from 2016-2026. It dosnt bother me.

This is why you shouldnt base your love of a club on success. I lpove the saints for the being the saints. We are a colorful club, we are one of the orignials, we have arguably more top 20 players of all time than most if not every club (harvs, Lockett, bulldock, stewart) YET not much success. 1913, 1971, 1997, 2009, 2010 I mean my god could any other club lose these flags? hahah its not funny but kinda just so weird you have to laugh and say, well thats us. We are the saints CARN THE SAINTS!!
you forgot 1965.. :cry: :cry: :cry: ...i cried all the way home to tassie...

No sure what it is- we were not going hard, I guess it's just a thing -not good or bad. I means we weren't beaten playing our best footy.

You ever been to Western Sydney Cairnsman? It is psychologically damaging as well as being physically hot.

All those middle class welfare recipients, whinging about the carbon tax. They probably attacked Saad because he is a muslim and probably tried to whack 457 visas on the whole team as they were taking local's jobs :D :wink:

Seriously though Sydney feel 32 at 25 degrees because of the humidity, I was there at Christmas and it is oppressive at 30 degrees.


middle class welfare recipients in rooty hill.....?????/pigs arse as someone once said......bogan class welfare cheats more like it...just because they gave fluffy arse gillard the cold shoulder doesn't make them middle class ffs..... :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

moonboot? Oh no, what the hell does that mean he's done? Has to be serious?

Amazing how a reasonably injury free pre-season ends with our 3 first choice "tall" defenders all injured. The area we are most desperately lacking in already.

Not necessarily. Some players where them and still play the following week. Better if he didnt have one on though. Not sure we will hear the real truth anyway.
