I would love if we got up by 6 or 8 goals. The d and g would disappear overnight. :D

Depends how we play. Ie if it is the lack of game plan and structure like last week then yes it's bad. Or we kick 4.8 again. If we lose because Melbourne is better then it's not a concern as Dee's list is looking pretty good now

So then even though it's a prac game it matters, which is the point i'm trying to make. and if we lose to Melb because they are better then I can Visit D&G central because I see it as a concern.

If we lose thus one, it shows us another club, that was behind us, has motored past us. That's why there is G & D around here.

Well - now I can say to other saints supporters in 10 years.

“You call yourself a supporter! I supported the saints through 2014, 2018... If you think things are bad now, you should have seen it then..!”
:P

How is Melbourne behind us? They started their rebuild WAY before us! They are actually ahead of us in the rebuild process.

Which rebuild? 1, 2 or 3?

Well they started behind us and through better recruiting and development they are now ahead of us. 4 players rated as elite by CD against our one and then there is the little matter of them finishing AHEAD of us on the ladder in 2017! What more evidence do you want?

hated the first half. Not just the score but how we went about our game. Over handballing and missing the maek and long kicks into 50. Then in the third we start kicking the ball to each other and looked what happened. Melbourne did fight back in the last but it was good to see that we can play when we change our game plan to suit the match.
Young guys held their own although Marshall was a touch overwhelmed at times but generally pleasing.
And minimal injuries thank god.

Now for the season proper
