Normally I barrack for anyone against the dirty Pies and I used to harbour fondness for the Saints but I wish nothing but the worst for the St Kilda this season. Hoping for a very bruising draw for tonight 😁

Actually tipped the Pies, I know they have significant outs but I think McCrae will drill the replacements to play his system. Plug and play. Really not sure what to expect, nothing will surprise me.

Go MRO and physios! 😁

I guess 1/4 of the crowd just didn’t show up

Worse at GWS game.

16,000 attended at a 24,000capacity ground.

2/3 full.

No wonder AFL see the northern states as an issue. Opening northern round here to stay sadly.

16th season for GCS and 14th for GWS, but they don’t fill small stadiums. Sydney and Brisbane both get good crowds consistently. Does the AFL care about crowd numbers for those clubs? Or do they care more about eyeballs on the tv/streaming?

I don’t actually know what metric the AFL concentrates on to determine GCS/GWS being a ‘success’.

Good game last night, but we should remember The Demons beat them up there, did not do us much good.

and Brisbane have had a bit less of a pre season than the rest. Like Jeelong

Glad all the [censored] games are almost over and we can get to our mighty Dees winning.Getting cataract done friday got to stay overnight home in time for the game. One eyed as usual

Good luck with the colours when you take the patch off. for me 4 times as bright, seems normal now.

No it's not.

The fact that we let go 3 of our big name players, including 2 that we're having to pay out, plus changing our CEO and President, plus restructuring the FD/Board relationship with a new senior post, would strongly suggest that the issues went a lot deeper than just Goodwin - or any individual for that matter.

Head Coach let it all happen.....

Dogs were fun to watch last night

No defence, all out attack

a game plan everyone is moving too that finally suits them

Seems that the MRO has done its bit with Harris Andrews handed a three-week ban and Zac Bailey and Darcy Gardiner offered one-week bans. That’s on top of the injury to Hugh McCluggage which will test the Lions against the Swans and star forward Charlie Curnow at the SCG next Saturday.

Jesus.

Honestly, what the [censored] has St Kilda done or achieved to warrant all this hype?

NWM- 1 breakout season, albeit a great one.

TDK - emerging

Silvagni- Overrated. Has never been in AA conversation

Max King- Can’t get fit

Phillipou- inconsistent, can’t string together good games

Owens - Promising, but still yet to fully breakout

Wilkie, Sinclair and NWM are genuine A listers, but who else do they have?

I just hope Collingwood bring them back down to earth and give a massive reality check.

Tonight, I am a Collingwood fan.

You don’t have to hope, St Kilda always come back to earth

Ross is just in it for [censored] and giggles

Then we get a team looking for revenge next week. They beat us twice last year on one occasion by 10 goals and then we lost the un- lose able. I will just imagine you didn’t say the unthinkable at the end.

Seriously if the AFL is serious about head injuries then it has to be 6 weeks!

Ump Kilda. Terrible 50 for a goal then a soft as butter free results on a goal.

I tipped the Giants and the Dogs, I had a couple of bets one with Saints and the other two with the Pies. I cashed out all three this morning. I think Collingwood will win but don’t really rate either side. Pies on a massive slide and the Saints yet to really achieve anything. Need to check what picks the Pies gave away for Houston, he’s very underwhelming.

i thought the alf always told the umps to favour the pies clint?

Why are the saints supporters wearing yellow hard hats?

As soon as next weeks games are on Sportsbet get on the Dees.

pendlebury still influential.

Saints poor skills.

so fumbly
