I heard a rumour that Marshall and Steele are a bit sore and may be rested this week.

So with Higgins out, Butler out and Gresham traded - who are going to be the small forwards in the next few weeks?

They're calling it a dangerous tackle due to Jack rotating Allir. So in their eyes it's a sling tackle. Watch Higgins body and arms. Do not fix your eyes on Allir's body or his head slamming the ground Does Jack twist his own body or change direction with the way he brings Aliir to the ground? http...

Never been suspended or fined. It seems the good bloke clause is out the window. Oh yeah, he plays for St Kilda. What a joke and farce.

Come on Saints!

Sub Hastie

Worry is that the Bulldogs are getting a lot of media attention right now and it's our 3rd game in about 15 days.

Does everyone realise that for 100 years, when everyone played on a Saturday, that everyone played 3 games in 15 days?

What was the difference between the impact King’s hit had and this? Laura Kane, you’re screwing up. The system is broken. Fix it. No No No - The impact was the same and Cameron got the week - he even pled guilty - he is just a good bloke - nothing more than that. I heard that Max was a nice fellow....

If Collard did a hamstring then maybe Hastie was taken off in case we needed an emergency for the main game.

Straightening up our kicking would also help.

Does anyone know the W/L stats for when King does and doesn't play? Because, it seems to me, we play better when King doesn't play but that may not be right. EDIT - With Max not playing 2020 All games 11-8 with King 10-8 - 1 extra win without King 2021 All games 10-12 with King 8-12 - 2 extra wins w...

Go Saints!

Actually I prefer that jumper to the candy stripe - more symmetrical

The "oval" didn't suit us. We were only beaten in 1 qtr in reality. We just happened to have a better 3rd qtr (the premiership qtr) than they did in the 1st qtr. We kicked for goal badly again. Lots to work on but I don't think it was too bad, considering.

Seriously
1 quarter aside

We were putrid today

However, it was, what "they" call, 'The Premiership Quarter'

Really disappointing first half. They started like they finished off last week, and so did we.

Geez Higgins is such a team player

I agree that Owens should be that midfield bull we have been praying for - not a forward who's goal kicking is not that good.

Sharman had a head clash with an opponent (nothing in it) late in the third qtr and was probably the reason he was subbed off. Bonner really needs to go. Give Shoey a shot next week. Wilkie only took 4 marks. I thought he wasn't his usual reliable self dropping marks he would normally take. King com...

Still available?

Players look like ice cream salesman


I like Traditional and hot cross that we wore in the 97 gf

Get your Tootsie Fruitsy ice cream

I thought that red number we wore in the pre-season games was going to be the clash jumper this season?

Almost identical? Nah. It was in the play. Actually it was very much like Maynard's last year. Went to smother then turned and hit Brayshaw in the head who was then concussed. 2 metre Pedro went to mark then turned and hit Cunningham who was concussed.

Still 20 games to go for them so anything can still happen (not that I want them to make finals, of course).

Out: Wood out and Henry possibly injured
In: Crouch, Collard (unless some of our other injured players are fit).
