Wondered where this thread went.

Gonna need Freo to pull something out today, Saints are looking pretty ordinary against North's powdery skeleton.

Saints have given up.

 

[finbarr]

Saints have given up.

They might produce something out of the box next week for Nick's final game.

 

[tribey]

Saints have given up.

Mmmm. There's still a chance they'll pull out all the stops to farewell one of their greatest ever, but we wouldn't want to have to cling to that on today's performance.

 

[El Zorro]

wow, that passage of play only needs the benny hill music.

 

[Magus]

I have an irrational hatred of St. Kilda.

 

[Greasyrhys]

The 'Aints certainly won't be breaking that long flag drought anytime soon, they've gone slightly backwards this year

There's also the backing up from a trip to Perth factor. Is that still a thing? There's also the possibly of Richmond entirely shitting the bed with only needing a win against St Kilda to make top 4.

Rance and his perfect face is the equivalent of a 6-goal breeze.

I've disliked them since they gave Adelaide their first flag. That and always thought Riewoldt was a good player, but a prick, so never liked them during his time there (which is a majority of our time in the AFL).

 

[Trough Lolly]

CMON Freo!!

 

[It Just Is]

Perfect start!

 

[scottjr]

So far so good

 

[scottjr]

This has the Richmond feel about it already

 

[Beats28772]

Freo on the board early

 

[It Just Is]

Not rewarding the tackler when a player is dispossessed really grinds my gears.

 

[Grave Danger]

Saints with the last 3-10 against N0rf

Ah yes, '97 plays a part. I think I mostly hate how happy their supporters are to cheer mediocrity. Their membership slogan was 'Strength Through Loyalty' which essentially translates to "Thanks for stickin' around, even though we're historically garbage'

 

[Seanybruz]

Bennell started well

I agree and I hate Norfs for the same reason- the softest competition

 

[finbarr]

it's Happening gif.

They remind me of Glenelg. By the sea, entitled playboy culture, paradoxically shit despite having a stack of historically wonderful individual players.

 

[It Just Is]

Would love to know how number of off the ball free kicks compare to prior years. It seems to have gone through the roof.

 

[Beats28772]

Torrensville over Crer lite. No finals for them.
