Agreed. Try as I might, i just cannot picture us wining the flag this year.

We're rooted.

1998 all over again.

Cant be any worse than Kosi. Discuss.

It could be to do with the departure of two of our key assitant coaches. Perhaps unrest amongst the match committee.

The year is a write off now.

We cant win a flag with this lot of players.

The bottom of the ladder beckons us for the next few years.

50m penalty to start the quarter. woeful. game over now, if it wasnt already.

Not looking good at all

That vid really brought tears to my eyes too, absolutely inspirational stuff. Seeing a Saints premiership in my lifetime is one of my goals in life. Hopefully it can happen this year.

Still not in the best 22, but 'steak knives' Peake has shown to be a solid contributor to the team. Right now he's definately in our best 22. Why wouldn't he be??? When Raph is fit, he would take Peake's spot since Gram is now back to assume the role of our main outside player. It goes to show how ...

And what would this accomplish?

Roo is a forward, simple as that.

Great defensive display by the saints, but really its just another 4 points. Both teams has key outs as well, so this game should not be used as a guide for what may or may not happen in September. Absolutely happy to get the win though.

Will be a true test for us. Freo will come out swinging, especially after having their colours lowered by Adelaide.

Our next captain? No way, do you see the way he goes off at team-mates due to an error, not what you want from a captain I reckon that's exactly what you want from your captain. Far from it. Would you want that from a manager? Captains need to know how to get the best out of players. Going off at p...

Agree. Have to lift by quite a bit to have any chance in the next two weeks.

I like smashing box

Love the tiprat, is underrated amongst non saints supporters. 400 goals from 200 games is a supreme effort by a small forward.

Essendon are a rubbish side, yet we leaked way too many easy goals. The tackling and pressure is way down on 2009 as well.
