Thankfully no Deboy!

This is actually the epitome of a "danger game"

We were as flat as tacks in WA, played poorly and the fingers started pointing; especially down back

At some point the Saints are going to have a "day" where it clicks

We need to be switched on and play to our strengths and play as a team... do that we win; we don't well keep everything crossed the Saints woeful skills get us over the line

Quite true. And I still believe that no matter where the sides are on the ladder, the travel factor in terms of returning from WA still needs to be considered.

For a number of years, I made some nice coin betting against any side that had travelled to the West for their previous game.

It isn't as big an issue as it used to be, but it is still a big factor.

Na we will smash them. I’d be more worried about the following weeks game of those cheats win this weekend

Couldnt agree more. That match we played v the Saints in 2016 is one of the all time worst games Ive been too. A little scarred, so not expecting big things.

To be fair we played unwatchable football in 2016.

We just need to accumulate and bank 4 points.

Scrappy play in them middle. Short marks the Saint kick off the ground. Gets it Grigg but his kick inside F50 goes straight to Carlisle.

We get it back. Caddy goes long to Jack who goes high but can't mark. Saints clear.

Lambert off HB. To Cotch to Caddy. Gives to Houli to Dusty to Edwards. Kicks it to Jack who cops a whack to the head from Carlisle  . Jack is wobbly and goes off. Caddy takes the kick = Goal 

Rich  1.2-8

Enjoy your enforced holiday, Carlisle.

Cotch with 6 possies already.

Great play by Macca. Beat 3 Saints. Butler had time to find a target but hits Geary instead .

Saints run it down the other end for a goal  .

Good one Butler
Sloppy defence

[mightytiges]

Our entries into the forward line are shoddy without Jack there. Our disposal efficiency is worse than the Saints 67% - 73%  .

Finally we kick a goal. Butler with the goal.

Rich 2.3-15
StK  1.0-6
