They have so many avg players having career years, they have zero injuries and they've just had everything go their way this season... I guess good on them for taking their chances..
They are also in the VFL Grand Final tomorrow.
So they cant be that bad.
Yeah, they've got no injuries. Regardless, as stated, the saints team of that era would've smashed them.
With no real great teams around at the moment, Bulldogs last year and (maybe) Richmond this year have a chance to pinch one. Although Crows are a good team.
Interesting stat they're saying. Next week, every player playing are playing in their 1st Grand Final. This hasn't happened since the very 1st Grand Final in 1898.

Who knows but it is very hard to compare teams from different eras. We had our chances.
I hope the club is learning from them. It looks like they are making changes.

Makes you wonder about how much of a disadvantage it is to play for just a team rather than a club.
Very true, I actually wonder if they will lose players because of this.
Also the commentators were saying that they're coached to play perfect football where Richmond would scrap and claw their way forward. The difference between playing for a team and a club.
Cotchin should be fine as it was a simple clash of heads in a contest... Ellis should miss next week though if the AFL are fair dinkum, which we know they aren't.
BTW - Simon… I reckon if greg winmar was (re)banned for posting in any of those political threads that are on the main board then the charges should be thrown out… If those SSM threads had of been moved to the general or animal enclosure much earlier like they should have, then we probably would have skipped the blow-up.
They've got nothing to do with the saints and are just asking for trouble being left there for days.

Last resort is spending time with our families I guess.
My 4 year old is obsessed with football and the Saints including singing the song arm in arm after every kick to kick session.
There is no escape.
One of my kids thought it would funny to go for another team... so I sold her to some Arabs and bought a yacht, just as a warning to anyone else that wants to get smart with me.
