There is no guarantee the sun will rise tomorrow, but it more than likely will.
I don't care that it's the GC. We travelled interstate, missing our skipper and came away with a 20 point win.
If you're not happy with your team winning, then I don't know why you bother.

Interestingly I thought that when Roo was out last year that Stanley played very much like Roo from a structure perspective ie ran to the same spots and presented in a similar manner. Obviously he didn't take as many marks or get his hands on the ball as much but the other forwards all knew where he was going to go. I thought it was a big factor in us winning as many games as we did while Roo was out.SainterK wrote:Structure was out of whack, no offence to Lynchy, but he can't come in and just play like Roo.
It's all good.

How many defenders will The Saints pick in the 2024 draft ?
Well how about just OCCASIONALLY posting something positive..your obsession with whinging, the glass being perpetually half empty, our kids being rubbish..gets a bit tiring after a while..and if you think Im the only one who thinks so then you need to go back and read the responses to a lot of your posts..bobmurray wrote:Knob.....cant you make a decent contribution once in a while...a real shitstick poster.....no wonder they dumped you as a moderator.....saint66au wrote:Off you go back to Sad Sack land with all your other "Oh woe is us" friendsbobmurray wrote:Another idiot steps up....AP Erebus wrote:Ridiculous statement.bobmurray wrote:no guarantees we'll win thoughAP Erebus wrote: Also, watching the Hawks/Dockers game on Ten atm...

Seems the conditions in perth aren't troubling Hawthorn.
As I said, I'm glad for the 4 points, however, that win may have been applauded and greeted with an outpouring of happiness 30 years ago when we hardly won a game.
We all know what it takes to win a premiership, because we haven't realised it yet, plus I have no doubt Gold Coast would have beaten lst week's Adelaide, or this weeks Melbourne easily.
I expected a fair bit more competition this week and I'm saying that we we're defintely not switched on this week and that can be fatal.
But this week's over, the game's over, just review see the mistakes, learn from the errors and come out a better team next week, and that is what is really important.

Except for the sanity nothing much has been lost.

Just home from the game - some observations
Umpiring was atrocious , some of the worst this year
Dal is playing at a level beyond most other players on the ground - he is above ablett and BJ at the moment
Umpiring was abysmal
We missed Roo - different forward setup had us working harder for our goals. We did miss some easy ones in the first qtr that should've seem us kick 6 or 7. Suns will lament their behinds but a few were rushed by us
Did I mention the umps were woeful?
Anyway we won. That's all that matters. Suns didn't give in as usual so solid workout for us
My top 5:
Dal
Peake
BJ
Farren
Milney

Sorry.
For you: Why can't we lose pretty? I really think we are s***. We'll never win how I like to win... Where's my dummy?
For everyone else: Four points in the bag, looking forward to Freo, at Etihad, with Roo back.
