Kind of scary but perhaps Blake - did job on Cloke last week -maybe ( a big maybe) he can step up and contain Brown - 4 goals conceded would be just about a win. Would send Kosi back - whether roo plays or not - give Kosi a shot a FF , alternating with CHF thru the game. Max could go Brown but i'd h...

If our midfield wins as much ball as last week (Ball brilliant - got BOG in The Age), and our bigger names build on last weeks improvement , with or without roo we are a good chance - as long as we learn to kick to a feasible target! Why is it so hard? Our kicking into the forward 50 killed us last ...

well no one has been burnt for mentioning kosi, so here goes...nick reiwoldt - not a confident kicker - tries hard, runs all day, but becoming a bit richo like (not the richo of these last few weeks unfortunately). Fades in and out of games - not a player to win games - would be much better for the ...

2 man bench 2 umpires?
Modern AFL is changing rapidly to a game many bemoan is akin to basketball - we see a game played by athletes who run all day, prefer a handball to a kick, and focus on keeping possession and flooding the opposition. The AFL has allowed this to happen by simply looking to basketball annd other sport...

Hall of Fame Match/State of Origin
Don't know about victorians but i've yet to meet anyone else support this weekends 'Vics' vs 'Not Vics' with anything other than cynicism. Thinking on that - i initially believed there should be two games WA v SA with the winner playing the V. The following year (or every second year) after that the...

12 wins may not make the 8 - our percentage will work against us - the boys need to learn to crush teams and not take the foot off the pedal - remember a few years back when we'd thrash the inferior clubs (milney v brisbane a perfect example) -should have done the same to essendon and carlton this y...

THE SW-AINTS
"SYDNEY SWANS’ coach Paul Roos says when Ross Lyon departed the Harbour City for his new post at the helm of the Saints, he took one vital piece of documentation with him – The Sydney Swans’ game plan book.

'intensity' is all important - it's why blake should be in! I wasn't a fan of blakes (in the mould of troy schwarzer - without the kick), but if he plays with more desire and discipline than better players he should be in -hopefully they'll have a look at themselves and match his willingness. One ex...

I'm positive we'll beat richmond - we are not playing to anywhere near our potential - we controlled essendon and carlton, and outswanned the swans, but played terrible footy for the other 3 games -bar 2 first quarters. Port always beat us (except when missing easy goals) so no real alarm bells at t...

We still have the best jumper (and since the expansion teams we no longer have the worst song) We have 101 wooden spoons (soon) We can keep score with just our fingers We have a coaching turnover of around 3 years (hopefully less this time) But.. we have one more year of Harvs -the only true legend ...

my family no longer joins me for saint games -too boring and frustrating for them -and i have to agree - only i can't give up on them. But through all the lean years - 70s and 80s (oh and the watson years) i have never been so frustrated with my team. They are BORING - i don't think i could enjoy it...

what we need?
Simple fact - the saints ARE good enough, but never are good enough - now if we could discover the switch that turned Geelong from potential champions to champions we WILL be champions. I have an idea it's about motivation -the will to win, the strength to push harder, the support of your team mates...

Supporters aren't reacting simply because we stand 3/3. They aren't even reacting to the fact our club is not progressing in the way our new coach promised. Rather we are reacting to the fact that the team and the individual players are playing far worse footy than we have seen under the previous co...
