Anything less than an 8 goal win will be a failure, and that’s being generous!

It would help if our players could start hitting targets by foot.

Just weather their initial drive and then pick out leading targets after running the ball.

Barrass is this week's defender of the year it seems.

shouldn't tempt fate, but i tipped us. should be a good hard contest against a team looking to make amends for their no-show last week and desperate to restore a bit of pride.
our slightly superior form should steer us home, but any win in the the west is a good win for the saints.

If we outlast their burst we should run over the top of them.

Fisher not doing us any favours at all.

Webster gets dumped earlier and nothing.

We are an ordinary team with too many plodders.
