saints vow to cure interstate record

NEAR enough is no longer good enough as St Kilda tonight embarks on a mission to improve its horror record in Adelaide. The Saints have won only four games in 18 years at AAMI Stadium - the least of any club.

Despite an emotional qualifying-final win against the Crows in 2005, the Saints have saluted in only two of their past 12 at the ground. It mirrors a poor 28 per cent strike rate at all interstate venues since the start of 2002.

But star midfielder Brendon Goddard said the days of accepting "honourable losses" on the road were over.

"It's easy to go interstate and lose. Lose and lose well," Goddard said.

Though I think perhaps that our horrid record against Port may have more to do with it than the Crows..??

I thnk that of our last 4 rthere against the Crows that it is 2 all??

No point talking about it BJ, talking about it just tells me that in our minds we think it is a factor. Travel should not be a factor, when it is not a factor in our minds then our road record will be more reflective of our overall record. IMO


Maybe this year?
