[plugger66]

Coke back sounds like what I need to get back to my old form.

Rumour is $450 a gram now. How can people afford that.

Get a law degree.

I feel for Paton a little bit, but he also going to struggle to compete with Webster, Sinclair, Stocker and now Nas rotating through the backline. He seemed like our next start a few years back and copped that broken leg, then Sincs rocketed up the order and Webster has coke back to his old form.

His form is good enough.

Webster is pushing 30 while Paton is 24. Close call either way on output yet i would of thought the younger player gets the nod.

I am happy he's contracted for next year as he's better then Long and he was sought out.

Good old Jetstar. I going to Bangkok in august with them. I’d say I’m more chance of being here than there. Any alternative way of getting here?

I reckon “senior experience” would have been part of the call.

Same as it was for Ross over Windy last week

Ok I will.

Not sure why anyone would pick jetstar and belive they would make it on time.

Surely both were ability especially Ross. Webster was ahead of Paton so he stays ahead.

Cricketers arms I think me and a few mates are heading to if it's any good? No idea coming up from Warrnambool

That’s where I went when I was down a couple of years ago. Had a great pre game lubrication. Nice old pub.

 

[Saintos The ITK]

Anyone want my barcode???

It’s hard not sometimes. I going to Bangkok $400 return. The next best was $890.

I recon it's going to be hard to get a real read on which players Lyons rates until he starts getting a few back but this new sub rule is really just 5 men on the bench with some restrictions that are designed to introduce tactics so I don't see Paton as being dropped.

Add me to it as well. I’ve got a ticket in my wallet phone that is for one person.

What if bytel is sub.

At least you didn’t book to fly in tomorrow.Still got time for them to put you on another flight hopefully.

I’d say with an injury list as long as it is.

You would be feeling pretty uneasy if you were Sharman.

 

[sunny3193]

I couldn’t have given him more credit but everyone I heard even said before both games that they move the ball to slowly and don’t go forward enough. Don’t worry Lyon was a huge part of both wins especially the first but Essendon won’t play like that. That doesn’t mean we don’t win or Lyon can’t come up with something else

Depends on what Lyon believes is Essendon’s “signature”.
He used exactly that word to describe the Bulldogs prior to that game.

 

[Cairnsman]

What if bytel is sub.

Yeah well then I suppose Patton is well dropped, who's your choice for the sub, I'm probably thinking Patton because I'm not sure I trust Bytel yet.

 

[DougalHoward]

GA tickets are $15 now (sorry if thats already been posted)

 

[Cairnsman]

as I said in another thread, even if we run out of players and Sharman was the last fit body they'd still go with a player on crutches and a moon boot.

Does the occasional good thing but it can only be the "do" that gets the commentators really excited about Sam Draper

I’m so proud to be a Sainter. Not just because of the resilience of our great club, but also the people that make it. The supporters. The lifelong, diehards.

Through the ups, the downs and every bump along the way, our loyalty will always remain.

Thank you to those who shared their stories for this special video. I really wanted it to embody the almost intangible feeling of what connects every Sainter to the club, and express why it’ll sit fondly in our hearts forever.

Carn the Sainters.

I was at the Freo game and they were trying to move it but we were sticking to them like a cheap suit. There was nothing ahead of them to kick to.

The Dogs did to the Lions what we did to them. Just pressured every possession and played the game at a higher tempo and intensity. I think it was 100% the Saints making them look bad.

I don't know how much to take out of the practice match but they looked like they troubled us a bit without being able to score. That again is making them take long range or angled shots through which is game plan too.

It's been well known for some time that Freo move the ball very slowly so whilst I have no doubt they were trying to move it, the pace in which they were doing it was going to allow us more time to push back and set up
