I’ll also put my hand up to blame. Came over from Auckland and went to Gabba and also last night at Marvel…haven’t seen Saints win “live” since 2004 and includes Gabba, Wellington, Marvel, Shanghai and MCG. Good news is I’m at the Airport out in an hour so hopefully will remove my curse for the rest...

Thanks CQ - you're right, might as well make a weekend of it anyway!

I’m trying to book a flight to Brisbane to catch up with an old mate to watch the game second week June vs Lions. I see the AFL hasn’t confirmed times/dates yet.

Does anyone know when the AFL plan to confirm timings? Need to book the flights soon, any indication would be helpful and appreciated!

On AFL NZ Website St Kilda are a sponsor…have no idea of what that means. But in a good omen for tomorrow the most recent local round scores were:

Round 7

Game 1: Goals: Behinds: Total:
Southern Saints. 20 18 138
Nothern Suns. 2 5 17

We have made 2 massive blunders that has stifled the growth of the St Kilda football club. And this is not hindsight, I was right there at the AGM and told them this will come back and bite us. 1. Moving our home games to Docklands after VFL Park closed down. Hawthorn were clever and moved their ho...

Back in 2009 and 2010 I used to love that we won often but hated the way we won. Lyon’s Slow strangulation and defensive focus led to boring low scoring ( but winning) games. I am also a long suffering Spurs supporter in the EPL. Spurs supporters demand flair and entertainment as much as winning. We...

1 point win will do - just like in 66

I note on the Saints official website that Dal won't coach this week "due to AFL Health and Safety protocols". Is this PR speak for he has COVID or is a close contact? Assume from now on the words "due to AFL Health and Safety protocols" are going to be wheeled out for all sorts ...

What I liked (and it's reflected in the posts here) is the fact that pretty much everyone performed or at least did their job for the game. No one dominated the game and various players produced at various times. Most importantly, every time the Lions came hard, we resisted and then dominated. I tho...

Liking Battle - looking best I’ve seen in a long while…also Highmore continues to show a lot

I really hope they persevere and get games into both these kids. Bytel has the toughness and skills in tight, and Burns the pace. With a bit of luck they’re going to be the future mid pairing for us.

For all those who went to the game, thanks for supporting so strongly . It came over as a far bigger crowd noise than the attendance number.

And you didn’t have to listen to Dunstall and Lyon S***can us until right before the end when they jumped on the winner’s bandwagon....

For me it was all about depth. For the first time in a long, long, long time we were really stretched through injuries and still got over the line in hostile (interstate), difficult (wet slog) and against a team desperate to show that they have turned the corner (GWS). Not to mention some (to be gen...
