leave it to deever

vineys gone to sleep unfortunately

yea good to see them kick the bloody thing

we are playing our old game of hospital handball.

Although watching Allen Jakovich kick 8 wasnt so bad.

I suppose it is better than going to moorrabin and standing in 3 feet of mud and waiting 2 hours to go to the toilet.

Id prefer the one of the former. More of a victory chance than the saints,

Thanks for answering.

For freos sake I hope not. Wouldnt wish our poor seasons on anyone. Except hawthorn.

So it wasnt a club choice?

Is it just me but does anyone else feel we are a better chance at the G than ethiad. So why are we not? Is it the afl or culbs fault? Do we get more $ for playing at ethiad? Surely it should be all about winning or am I being naive?

I appreciate the commitment and support by fans but people imo are excused form going to a home game at ethiad. Given that st kildas home game against melbourne in the next coulple of months isnt at the mcg (yes its at ethiad again) supporters should feel a little taken advantage of. If I could get there today I would despite the inequality as I dearly want the dees to win. So thank you to all the people that do turn up and reveal their passion. No thanks to those responsible for playing another of our HOME games not at home.

With regards to deliberate out of bounds, it should be null and void if more than twenty five metres or so. This will eliminate mistakes and help out defenders. When the ball is kicked out of defence by a player being tackled he needs to have some chance.

I wonder if injuries can make a player better. Sounds funny I know but perhaps they can make a player more determined and hungry. Petracca has had a rough trot as had Trengrove and I hope he has an awesome debut.

Hes pretty awesome to watch when he has a goal in front of him and the race is on between him and some smuck. Most have no chance of catching him. Makes me laugh. Yes he is a finisher with precision kicking and slick handballs.

He is up there with the best of them. Super fast, quick thinking and will only get better.

Despite the odds, St Kilda will go into this game thinking they will win. They clearly have it over us and despite our win at Ethiad last year our record is flimsy there to say the least. However our boys are going in with 2 wins behind them and a solid game against Norf when the umpires stuffed it up. This is a confident Demons side and rightfully so. Lets hope the saints underestimate us at their peril. Should beinteresting but I think we will get across the line. Would love to see us win with a big big score for once. That would really get us up and about.

Its a good question. In my humble opinion barring injuries, Dawes will be lucky to take his spot again. Pederson has stepped up and while I think he needs to kick more goals, he is a player that takes a strong grab and can be played in defence. He has been involved in many goal assists. Dawes has cost us a lot of $ and I don't believe he warrants it anymore.

I say they will leave it open while saints supporters dance for rain.

This team is different to the one of last year. Many of the players may still be the same but their intensity levels have changed. I don't condone violence but I commend mateship. (ie Vineys effort) The tigers tried it on at the end of the first quarter and we gave it back with interest. Our tackling is harder and they stick. I think we used to be perceived by other clubs as soft. Not any more.

Given how we have been able to finish all of our games this year bar one,I give the fitness staff a big wrap.

It was a big mistake not include him against essendon.

I think the omission of Oliver shows that we have been building up a strong stock of mids and as such there is now much competition for them.

Beating the saints will be another voodoo broken

I would be surprised

Sad that Gus and Oliver are not playing but the good news is we have genuine competition for spots now.
