Preview R21 Elimination Final: Melbourne v St.Kilda - MCG (A), Sunday 13th, 1:10pm AEST *Brown's 150th*

[saints2066]

Id keep persisting with Lones the last couple he was getting better. Not numbers but execution.

Yeah 8 possies and passing to the opposition, really on the improve..I'd rather get battle in..give him more of a taste..Lonie should be finished, unless he radically changes next year he is just a list clogger, he is a mid, not really a forward, struggles to crumb or kick goals in the seniors..consistently poor and ineffective, Minch is a little better, but he too is a mid.

We may finish on 12 with a lower percentage and finish 9th again

9th?

That's a bit Rich

 

[Glen Buterol]

Essendon with 12 and percentage is likely. We may finish on 12 with a lower percentage and finish 9th again

We need to scrape over the line this week with the Bombers getting beasted against the Crows. Then win by 100 against Norf. Suddenly our percentage is competitive

 

[Glen Buterol]

We need to make up 171 points on the Bombers. That could be achieved over the next fortnight given they play crows & we play Norf

 

[PoppedCorn]

Tbh we should win well this week.

 

[Persevering Saint]

I surrender. We are soooooooo ****** this week. I'm just going to stay on this board for a bit and pretend not to be too concerned with the way things are going. Don't tell anyone.

I'll even sport you one of those nauseating posts after the match where I pretend to be a really good sport and say stuff like "the team that wanted it more" won. I'd better get lots of likes when I do though.

You know you always get lots of likes on this board anyway.

 

[Saint Watto]

As long as he doesn't lose his goal-kicking ability along with his hair! Heaven knows we need the goals.

That's the last thing we need....another Samson....I present Stuv your honour...lol.

Have a like old sport

Don't really want to move Carlisle as has been superb down back last couple weeks although playing Gilbert forward sounds like a non practical idea.

He will make JB, Gresh and Mav look like dead eyes in front of goal

 

[Saint Watto]

What's that grotesque stat about our win/loss when any of Roo, Members or Bruce are out of the side?

That was the first thing that flashed thru my mind when I heard Roo was out......we win a heap more games when all 3 are playing.

Well Essendon's big outs this week against the Crows should help somewhat.

 

[Diehard Saint]

Got to Learn to win without Roo and there's no time like the present I guess.

Came so close without him against Port and he didn't play at the death last week when the whips were really cracking, so I think we're on our way.

This year we haven't had Roo at his absolute best ( for obvious reason) so the other guys have had to start standing up, and I think it's happening.

 

[Glenn Barker]

Surely Hickey comes in? Put him forward and it will really stretch their defence. It will also allow Bruce to play forward for the entirety of the match.

Actually his careers goal kicking stats of 36-40 is better than Mav's 51-61 and JB's 46-62.

 

[Glen Buterol]

Apparently Jack Watts WILL be dropped when final team is announced tomorrow arvo.

No,

#GotIt

 

[Glen Buterol]

No,

He usually plays okay against us. It's a win in my book. Many of their selections are actually quite perplexing.

 

[TheBalls]

Strangely calm about this game. I pretty much accepted our season was over after the Essendon game, so every win will be a bonus.

I think I am the same, although just waiting on Saints to troll me completely by winning the next 2 and losing to Richmond.

He has been very poor last couple of weeks

Terrible idea for mine..

Dogs & Bombers have easy draws, both should make it

Dogs have GWS, then Port, then Hawks (Hodge's finale).

They're not over the line yet.

 

[Red White Black]

Gilbo straight swap rooey

No other changes plz

TBH I think we've already gone past the great man. Wasn't great viewing last week.
