1.10 is worse then right on Mothers day Lunches

I could think of nothing better to do on mothers than go to the G and watch this one unfold.  

 

I'm not a mother though so what would I know

We’ve beaten this mob once at the MCG since the 2006 elimination final.

Saints on an 8 day break should have recovered from their Cairns trip.

Really hoping we can bank this win as we have some tough fixtures between rounds 11 and 15. Would love to be 10-0 before we face Sydney and Freo at the G.

We can afford to lose 4 games this year IMO in order to finish top 2. Would rather not use one up today.

Would you happen to have the breakdown of many times we’ve played them at the G since then? We rolled them last year but that was at Marvel.

Yeah, we don’t do Mother’s Day at mine. 
Apparently we do game day…

Now to work out whose work this is: the hipster uni student or the bedroom-dwelling, PS5-playing teenager. 🤔 

LOL found these in the bottom of the wrapping. They know I lose/break earbuds on a weekly basis.

Added a pic of what was almost thrown out with the wrapping paper. 😬

This haven't been tested B/S. The doggies threw everything at us and come up short. As did the Suns Hawk and Tigers. Port is the only team that rolled over. 

[Clintosaurus 7,891]

Bit too much taking in the media puffing up the Saints. We win this by 27 points.

They just want a bit of excitement. "Best team wins again" is dull compared to "so-called best team is vulnerable" or "pretenders toppled from top of ladder."

[Tarax Club 4,029]

Wayward Saints seeking salvation. Last seen sliding for a slither of soap in slippery northern slimes. 

Scraping like seagulls in a slather for seemingly senseless seconds searching for a slim score.

Media mogul machinations on Mother’s Day may mirror minor minds.

Determined Demons dastardly dash delusions of disorientated  delinquent delight.

Saints or sinners saved for slaughter by the last quarter.

Memorable Mothers Day

I was more talking about posters in here believing it.

[Satan 2,885]

Ill take the 4 points

[dl4e 5,851]

MFCSS is strong today.

[daisycutter 29,795]

perfect footy conditions today

dry,  no wind, 16 degrees

[Fork 'em 7,008]

Time to vanquish an upstart challenger.
Bring on 7-0.
Go the Mighty Demons.

I'm more interested in a "Love Eight" relationship.

Mums eat breakfast and dinner too, you know. Just saying…

Would love to see Jackson put in a dominating game today.

Geez they're a weird looking bunch

I don’t have the breakdown handy but I believe St Kilda have won 8 of our last 9 meetings at the G.

[Fritta and Turner 4,593]

Nervous as all hell.

(I hated mothers day; something always came 'unstuck' and then it was on....)

[dees189227 12,432]

Hope Tom has a great 200th game. Not that you'd know with little fanfare about it.

But hope we have a good win & we carry him off

Mothers Day is just the creation of Hallmark and retailers. Surely every day should be considered Mothers Day.

Don't get me started on "Secretaries Day"

A cynical money grab by the florist industry.

Just smash them Demons

8-0 awaits 

[D4Life 2,572]

Expecting to win well.

At some point we drop a few games during the season.

Still when look at quality across ground 

Backs - May Lever Petty Brayshaw Bowey

Mids - Max Trac Clarry Langdon 

Forwards - Fritsch Brown

Running power - ANB Kossie Spargo Sparrow Hunt

Add system and we look very hard to beat!

Go Demons!
