[ScrappyDo]

nuclear holocaust vibes

I’m tipping a draw, but a brave one.

Yeah it's gonna be a nervous day.

 

[StFly]

What are we thinking, 4.17 each and plenty of missed attempts to win it?

 

[Miha]

Tigers by 14. Dusty will recapture his 2018 form one last time just for us

. Their backline looking pretty lean and we've got King back off a suspension as well as Membrey and Caminiti who should stretch their backline, a few of their good mids out and their star key forward out. If we can't get this one done there's some worries.

 

[SteeleSaints]

Hopefully Pou has a blinder today and gets his contract sorted early next week.

Saints need the win, but please no more suspensions or injuries.

 

[Murraj1966]

Hanging to see the candy stripes in full flight again

 

[bergholt]

as well as Membrey and Caminiti who should stretch their backline

People keep saying things like "stretch their backline" but if that was a thing then wouldn't sides just pick 6 tall forwards every week? Personally I don't remember many occasions where a notably tall forward line took a lot of marks and kicked a lot of goals. Usually they concede just as many intercepts and the ball runs out easily because they can't chase.

 

[The Jack]

As long as we’re strong in the contest, we should be happy.

PTSD just kicked in.

I miss the off-season

Was much less stressful

It only works if you get good clean ball use and deep entries.

A key forward 1 on 1 with the above and it’s generally money

 

[stavro#4]

Hastie sub again

 

[jumperfan]

I'm expecting Port vs Saints in Cairns 2022.

Whoever kicks the most behinds wins

Might even go for an Adelaide classic and repeat the Robbie Gray incident of 2017

 

[Yawkey way]

We’d want to win this with the players Richmond are missing.

 

[Jade Buddha]

I get tigers are missing some handy players but so are we.
Saints by plenty.

 

[god_of_the_universe]

Just get the 4 points with no injuries or suspensions please

Hastie sub again

Understand why Hastie is the sub, but just seems strange having Sharman, Caminiti, King, and Membrey in the same 22. Would've got Sharman or Caminiti as sub. Haven't had those 4 in the same lineup before so will be interesting to see the dynamic of the talls, as well as whether Sharman even spends the majority of the time up forward.

12 months ago. When Sharman was struggling and out of the side.

He wasn’t seen by our coaching group as a “tall”.

I’d imagine that’s still the case.

Lol RTB speed demon.

Yep will be interesting especially when you add Philliou (190cm) and Owens (191 cm) to the fwd mix.

 

[Saintos The ITK]

There should be a sea of Pou in the crowd with all the lations there in radelaide.

 

[stavro#4]

Why?

They are mids playing forward.

IMO Sharman has to play not forward, and Caminiti has to play second ruck
