Huge Game this Week !!
So now we have more injuries to key players, we are behind the ledger, and the window to recover our position is shrinking. this week is an absolute MUST win, otherwise the gap (4-6) grows to something that will likely be unrecoverable with our miserable percentage. This week is a HUGE game for our season. We need to show that our effort, application and endeavour against the cats was not an outlier.
Bring that all again this week against the Dogs, add some improvement to our set shot kicking and we can keep our season alive.

That's the spirit. Wasn't it you that said we'd lose by 80 plus points to the Cats?

No chance!
They are just not skilful enough to execute when it matters.
The bulldogs seem to have no trouble kicking goals so it won’t matter how hard we work, tackle, pressure or anything else when we can’t get the basics right.

Re: Huge Game this Week !!
If anyone bothered watching their game against Port on the weekend - you would have good reason to be concerned

Re: Huge Game this Week !!
St Kilda usually play to the script - and in this case it is a positive for us.
We don't have that many injuries in terms of quantity. And if we get back Geary and Carlisle this week, and if Kent is available after his concussion a couple of weeks back we don't really have many to cover. At the moment we have the second least number of injuries. The Dogs have nearly the most apparently.
It is impossible to pick winners. I was surprised we did as well as we did against the Cats.

Re: Huge Game this Week !!
I always dread the “brave loss hangover”, and we get ‘Em pretty bad from a fans point of view anyway.
Like Gold Coast, who put up a great show, just get done, but then get a horrible hammering the following week.

Re: Huge Game this Week !!
I'm reinstating my 'Golden 10 goal rule' from the dark days. If we lose by less than 10 goals we've actually won. It's amazing how it can lift you psychologically. I'll reference the same George Costanza quote from another thread here....'it's not a lie if you truly believe'. We're actually having a pretty good year.

Re: Huge Game this Week !!
Our backline can beat the Dogs forward line. If our midfield plays like it did against the Cats then we might break even through the middle of the ground. It's our forward line that could undo all the good work in the other two departments.

Farking massive. Big chance to pass on our yips and bust the Dogs early with 8 first quarter goals. Max to dominate. The Bulldags won't know what hit them. Huge.

Re: Huge Game this Week !!
Just read Sandi report. Rushing to judgment:
Geary in for Lonie
Joyce for Frawley
Dunstan for Couch (broken bone in face)
Not sure about Rowan's replacement. English is athletic and can go forward. We are out of mirror images of that. Poor Battle may find himself in ruck changing on the wing, resting at half back.
Coff the medi sub.

Huge game.
Definitely winnable.
Bring that pressure again. We must bring that pressure.
Surely we couldnt kick for goal that poorly three weeks straight.

Re: Huge Game this Week !!
Just got impression Ratts was not impressed. Had 2 kicked on him and gifted another to Menegola. Didn't really think Joyce deserved to be omitted. Just an amateur speculating.

Not a bad speculation and could be true, except for the money that Chip is on.

I don't believe it.
This has to be the Jiggster's fake burner account.
How did the ever-optimistic creaky old bugger learn how to do that
2020 was an aberration, when we travelled twice to Adelaide and won both, beat Tigers early, beat our bogey Swans. 2021 we've returned to our old ways. Damn
