Go Saints.

Game day thread/s will be monitored and any rule breach will result in a minimum 6 hour ban.

Post about footy NOT about posters.

Post respectfully.

I have 5 fantastic Lord of the Rings Posters and just had an Autographed Nicky Winmar one framed!

Posted in defiance of the "Post about footy NOT about Posters" rule

Go Saints

Membrey to kick 2
Saints win 3-39
Hill to have 20+
Roberton to have 20+
Total Score 150+

Yep the knowledge will come in handy next time there is a pandemic.

Sorry can't take it seriously. We'll learn SFA about footy. The game is a dead rubber and the players will be happy just to get it out the way and start thinking about commencing thier responsibilities to thier families.

It's just not the same being locked out.

But here's hoping for a promising start.
Go Saints.

Fair enough.
I'm guessing the players have experienced significant arguments and frustration with loved ones this week in the lead up to games. I'm guessing arguments would have revolved around the PR spin that the player's are taking the risks to themselves, thier families and our communities because they want to "play for the fans."

I've never heard more complete and utter garbage.

As always just lacking that little bit of composure in the final third. Hopefully as the game goes on Hill can get his eyes down and impose himself upon the contest.


This was my father's belief
And this is also mine:
Let the corn be all one sheaf--
And the grapes be all one vine,
Ere our children's teeth are set on edge
By bitter bread and wine.

Kent very slow going into F50. He’s lively but needs to move the ball faster

Good first quarter

Could’ve had one or two more albeit kings was a bit lucky

Billings going at 100%

Team looking so much sharper and more attacking / free flowing than last year. I know it’s been said before but players playing to their strengths rather than focusing on weaknesses

Really stop making up bulls***. Watch the game or go and do something else if you are disgusted.

The AFL web site is s***. I want to look at the Saints players stats but can't see where I do it.

Good start Saints.
