Uncle Bitter is toddling along today as the guest of a St Kilda member. I expect to be evicted by halftime as either - A. A boorish drunken loud mouthed and ungracious winner

We need the young guns to fire, I know Oliver is going to (3 Brownlow votes coming up). Petracca and Brayshaw need to step up if we're going to win. We also need to taunt Weller, his eyes are too clos

A few things to remember before today's game: Yes, the Saints will kick a goal at some stage.  There's no need to act like the world is caving in.  They may even kick two in a row, but that's no

ANB has looked like he belongs today.

Haven't been a fan but have to give it to him today. Not out of place and maybe the confidence boost he has needed because he seems a naturally cocky bloke who hasn't had anything to be cocky about til today, those kind of guys tend to need something to feed off

One more quarter to go, I would love nothing more than for us to get the first 2 goals to ice the game. 

We probably could've had another couple of goals that quarter. 

Agree.

it might be MFCSS but I'll be worried if they get the first goal or two.

Regardless of the result, I am proud that none of our players sports a man bun.

Need to pump through five goals this quarter and keep the pressure on. Put the lead out to 40-50 points with 15 minutes left in the game and they're done.

sad how much of a lead I want before any confidence sets in when playing the Aints at Etihad...

                                  Or

B. A boorish drunken loud mouthed and ungracious loser.

 

So that is the secret to breaking the hoo-doo.....Uncle Bitter in the Saints' elite section!!  Wonder if he has been evicted yet?

Having witnessed the Essendon Melbourne fiasco many years ago  where Kickett kicked the goals and us  it is very hard to remember that this is a different era But I think we might just about have won this.

The trouble with being old is that

Old travellers are always boring

Old soldiers are always heroes

Old fisherman are always liars

And old demon supporters are always pessimists

Would be good to finish it off.... a couple more goals from the Saints will cheapen the victory

After 10 years, it won't be cheap!!

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
