Historical precedent means stuff-all, so what's the lesson?
What has the '05 prelim got to do with the '09 Saints?
Did the Swans rest players and the Saints didn't?
To quote Ross Lyon:
If we improve and our effort is strong regardless of the scoreboard we walk away knowing that when we review it we’re in a pretty good state. The wins and losses are a by-product. Our aim is to try to bank four points and we don’t feel we’ve got anything sewn up yet.
You practice mediocrity and you practice it often, pretty soon you find yourself slipping down the ladder.

we are alot fitter then 2005.
how about looking at what the bulldogs did when they knew that had 3rd place sewn up last year?
Sounds as though Nexus Nick has found a way back on to the forum.
Please mods can you deal with this bloke.
It is the same over and over and over. Definition of trolling isn't it?
Lance or James??
There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say, "Enough is enough." For me, that time is now. I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in <redacted>. Over the past three years, I have been subjected to a <redacted>investigation followed by <redacted> witch hunt. The toll this has taken on my family, and my work for <redacted>and on me leads me to where I am today – finished with this nonsense. (Oops just got a spontaneous errection <unredacted>)

didn't we run out of fit players? a couple of players played who were in our best side when fit, but who weren't fit enough. that's different to running out of legs, i think.

I think two blokes named Schneider, kicking some last qtr goals and Dempster nullifying Dal in the 2nd half may have contibuted to our demise also.

From memory we didn't bring in a couple of players for this game. I'm sure one was Aaron Hamill, can't recall who the other was but they were RESTED for the Grand Final.
St Kilda's 2 premiership captains are Tassie born. The Doc & Roo.
