I'm not sure Campbell was necessary and may spend a bit of pointless time on the bench but he will give King and Membrey a buffer up forward if put up there.
Paddy BOG
Max 6
Higgins 3
Gresham 2.
38 point win.
Tight first half, attacking explosion by Saints 3rd quarter.
Pressure and keepings off in the last.
If ball movement is fast, Campbell will be needed for the ball-ups that Ryder can't get to. I think Paddy might stay near the middle or backline if Port gets into their 50 a lot.
Campbell can ruck in the fwd line

Mmm..
Both teams have had a terrible, absolute pile of crap losses. Us b Collingwood, Them vs Hawthorn.

With a long injury list,
Port lost narrowly to Brisbane - 11 pts.
They lost to Melbourne.
They lost by a kick to Adelaide and Carlton

It is not as bad as it looks from their side and it’s not as good as it look s from our side..

We haven’t beaten a 2021 top 8 team except GWS, and I think they aren’t much chop yet..

I am now thinking that fitness will win it for us, unless we suddenly get accurate in from if goal..wouldn’t that be nice for a change!!

And we are fielding our weakest side this year.
WTF?

Come on man!

Has anyone's predictions changed seeing the strong performance of West Coast (who Port beat last week)????

On the contrary just shows how easy & bruise free their game was last week very different to our scrap with GWS so they will be a lot fresher going into the game tomorrow hence I think we will really struggle to match them for 4 quarters but IMO only :wink:

I want to see Cambell as a battering ram leaping into the oppo ruck and smashing them at ground level,
Then Paddy will dominate in second half

I think we will win and win well.
I am not going to predict what individual players will do because who could predict that last week Mad Max would kick 1.7 and Higgins would kick 4.3 after missing two sitters right in front 10 metres out, and Battle would be the matchwinner rucking in the second half?

FWIW Port's win can now be viewed as a win against a totally uncompetitive outfit the week after giving away a nine goal lead against a side which hasn't finished in the top 8 since 2011. I mean, come on guys!

We're playing too well at the moment to lose this one. We won't take them easy because of their record against us.
Margin - we double their score in a low scoring affair.

Not confident at all.

History says these are the games we always drop, especially against Port, a week after they’ve had a confidence boosting win.

They’re just a team we can’t beat and we always play them at the wrong time.


Until we have an administration that demands success and a playing group that bleeds for the guernsey, St. Kilda will just be a sh*tty football club.

And we gave up a home game in Melbourne to play in conditions that favour them!

If we lose tonight we will get belted next week against Melbourne. Humidity and travel will be a huge issue. Travel to Cairns might = 2 game loss.


Rugby League would have to be the stupidest, most moronic and over rated game of all time.

Did anyone predict a 1 point loss?


The Saints are under review, will it make any difference to the underachievers ?

These were my thoughts going in, yet I’m still irrationally annoyed at the way we lost - how can we miss so many goals!!!

This is the worst - thought we were on in the 1st - then a few misses and the team started to drop their morale (viewing from afar)
