We have a chance to overrun them in the second half.
They will have two rotations short for more than half of the game.
Just need to tidy up a bit at both ends.

Anyway, we were good in that half. I think Cameron and Patten will steamroll us in the end, but the boys are doing us proud.

WTF was that free kick against Longer in the ruck?


Rugby League would have to be the stupidest, most moronic and over rated game of all time.

All game I would say. The free against him was rubbish.

As everyone would know, I am a great fan of Nick, but he should stay out of the back 50. He has no idea back there. Mind you, bad short kicks don't help.

here are the rules for kicking out.

1. An easy 40 metre kick to someone unmarked by 40 metres OR
2. Long to the boundary and a contest.

The saints are the real deal , this first half shows we have the skillset of a top side...now if we can just get the umps to ignore the AFL's push to have GWS dominate we are in.

Mummy did a similar thing last week. No case to answer for a Giant. Koby? Saints player. 3 weeks.

Even though they are two down, because they are bastard child of the AFL
and are 40% more skilful than everyone else,
and our skills are rubbish,
they are still a lot better than us.

I agree partially, but the second half will show more of whether we are a top side

Forwards flying for the same ball, kicking out of defence horrible late. Kicking for goal as usual. We lack class/silk, we are 2 class mids off being a top 4 side, but do we find them ?

This is a very winnable game , we just need some poise, but where will it come from?
we need to get another one of the younger GWS guys without paying too much.. like with Steele
Just keep picking them off as they develop

SO TRUE - Watch this space - the commentators had him hung drawn and quartered. Unbelievably negative commentary again from 7 scumbags.
Not enough ratings with the saints.

They seem to have us for pace as well as skill. Endeavour may not be enough.

Bruce out, Paddy in for next week, Josh is looking like a real spud tonight. :shock:


The Saints are under review, will it make any difference to the underachievers ?
