Predictions this Round

[saynta]

For all the doom and gloom and piled on s***, Higgins dropped mark was the game changer. Take the mark and kick the goal and it would have been game, set and match. Thank you for the rabbits as a former Saints forward was frequently heard to say.

Hey go easy on my man Higgo, I have a lot riding on him winning top goal scorer.

[flack]

I just hope the boys can get up against Sydney, the umpires and the Media in Buddy's 350th.

On the S.C.G
Why do we win so rarely?
Answer me fairly

The last decade
Has told the tale of horror
Swans High, Saints fodder

Nice



Buddy 350
Never helped poor Rob Harvey
Will not help Sydney

Haiku?

I'll try.

Longmire gone stale
A twisted Sydney tale
The Boss is Back.

I've got one more prediction... the reverse Fraser Gehrig.

We have the momentum, Franklin kicks a goal and the crowd decides 1056 goals is enough to run onto the field, takes away all of our momentum.

[CQ SAINT]

Most goals
Hammer 3
Higgo 3
Most Marks Cal W, 15
Most touches Sincs 35

Margin
Minus 43

Bump this

[CQ SAINT]

Higgo to advance his grip on the top goal scorer

Crouch to advance his grip on the TB medal

Swans by a really small margin in one of the ugliest games of football ever to be played

My Brother Teffers to crank up his screaming at strangers on the steps of Flinders Street station.

This too.

What Ross says to the media and what he believes are two different things. I judge based on actions not words, so we will see what happens this week.

It would be a wise investment to put a few $$ on Swines to win by 35.5+ as 6 goals minimum would make sense, based on how rubbish we've been since the Carlton game.
Paying over $4.

Revisit this one late on Thurs night

Consider it revisited.

I think it was a streaker this time but it slowed play down (not that Sydney were on top) but I think it helped us more than them.

Papley averages 1.8 goals per game, this season.
He averages 3.8 shots on goal.

Based on our team's very poor performance on stopping oppo from streaming into our D50, since maybe the Blues game, I predict the Swines will give him many more chances.
Also based on their game vs Blues.
We are as bad as the Blues, maybe worse.
RTB giving the squad a very nice long weekend, where they flew to Noosa, Bali or wherever, sends a very strong message to the lads that the Hawks loss was another Mulligan, 'put it behind you, forget about it'.

What about...getting them to sit through videos as a group, pointing out where they stuffed up, and get out on the track and work on getting better at what made them win those early games

Someone needs a nice holiday. By the way, the AFLPA decided they would get the week off. It's in the agreement but of course, Ross can just do what ever he likes. He is the King of the SCG.

I'm happy with 3 out of 5 predictions correct.

It's why tbey call me the Footy Mystic.
