29 / 30

Including finals and the pre-season comp, the AFL season runs for 30 rounds. St.Kilda featured in 29 of them. The one missing? The one that matters.

The same thing happened in 2004.

So close, but in reality, so far.

Hawthorn had 4 at York Park so I reckon they are doing Ok.
True. However I'm sure the 12 games at the MCG makes up for that. They only played 4 games away from the MCG, TD or Aurora.

St.Kilda's achievement of 1 million fans through the gates is far greater than that of the other four clubs to achieve this, as despite us having played 25 games after Saturday night, none of Hawthorn, Collingwood, Essendon or Carlton have had to play at Carrara or the capacity reduced SCG.

Although it seems likely that Ball will miss, keep in mind that not once this year has a Saints player coming back from injury failed to take his spot in the side when named.

Fitness & Final Quarters

It appears as though our fitness and finishing has been better this year than any other in the recent past. The extra funding allocated to this area seems to be worth it, particularly in the latter half of the year. If indeed it has improved then it will really show through this week. Despite a brui...

1999 Prelim, Essendon v Carlton. Essendon were unbackable favourites, and flag favourites, they lost by a point.

All five ins possibly playing for their future at the club....

Despite it being an interstate game, I'd rather see Allen, Steven, Armitage & McEvoy instead of Gardiner, Clarke, Rix & Ferguson.

It was an injection of youth that got us over the line vs Freo last time.
