Saints! Lions suck shower!

Only team I can bag... :P
You lost to Melbourne. You don't get to bag anyone until next year.

Mailman the 2nd

I actually think that Brisbane will win this one.

Not really sure why though, as everything in front of me seems to favour the Saints

Bill Manspeaker

I hope the fact that we're actually going in as favorites doesn't flower with us.

Saints by 21. come on Sainters

Still higher on the ladder than you. You guys can barely win a quarter, let alone a game.

Lions are dreaming if they reckon they can win this.

Come on the Saints!

All our games this year but the Q Clash were against top 8 sides last year, where as you've only played 3 games against top 8 sides last year and lost to Melbourne.

Win for the Lions coming up.

Nroo to have a field day and kick a bag. Saints should get up by four goals I think.

It's simple for Brisbane really. Shut down Riewoldt and you win. I hope they don't, my fantasy teams can't take another beating!!!

Tough pick I reckon but I think Saints might win this even tho I`d prefer the Lions to win
Same as my thoughts.

Why are we playing in NZ again? The crowd is expected to be a lot less than last year.

St Kilda will win by plenty. Brisbane need to find something.

Ringo

We will Aaron and do not be surprised if we cause the upset.  Hopefully the area of concentration for a full quarter is getting through and we concentrate for the full 4 quarters In all but one of our games we have been competitive but getting blown away by points in time on so if that is addressed we can win. (162 points so far for season in time on over 5 matches is disgraceful)

@stkildathunda: News from Saints training: Tom Hickey didn't train with main group, looked to be bit ginger when walking. Sam Fisher didn't train at all.

Hoping Hickey gets up, was hoping to keep him until his bye.

Wow that's crazy Ringo, 162 points in time on his just huge. Do you think that's a fitness thing (not being able to run out quarters) or just inexperience and lack of focus?

Money

For us WA people does this game start at 3:45 or 5:45 ?

Ringo

Money I would say 3:34pm.

Lucky in Qld as all three games tomorrow are Free to air.

@toga just concentration lapses I think with the inexperience.  Senior players have highlighted it is costing us 30 points at least a agme.  Look at our match against you we were in front at the 20 minute of 3rd quarter but you got the  next 5 goals before three quarter time.  Just using this as an example of where we are really falling down.

Toga

Yeah understand mate it would be very frustrating for coaches & supporters. I guess with a lot of new guys in your team though the younger heads would have more concentration lapses than more experienced teams, and probably don't have the legs to run out quarters as hard as the more experienced teams.

Hopefully you can get it sorted out!
