    <p>good game last night, very intense. Fuck the Hawks are an impressive outfit.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Booboo i agree about the SCG, the first time i went to a test there in the 90s i was astounded how small it was. I felt like i had played on bigger club fields. Given the size you would think the Swans would be a bit more cautious about giving up 50s. </p>

    <p>I know i said last night the 8 was sussed, but there is now a glimmer of hope. North are still 2 wins ahead of Port, but they are in freefall. After round 9 they were top at 9-0. Since then they are 1-6, and in that time have only beat the rubbish Tigers. Port flogged them on the weekend, are in with a sniff all of a sudden.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Sorry ACTC, yes St kilda are on the same points as Port, but they aren't as good as a side. Next year though... </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>The Lions once again showed what an absolute disgrace they are. </p>

    <p>oh shit. Bomber Thompson wants a job. The Lions should throw all of the money at him. Look what he did at Geelong, they sucked when he took the job. He's the kind of coach that players would move to play for as well. </p>

    Our % sucks so given how tight the points are, we aren't in a strong position. <br><br>
    Out draw isn't too bad but even if we win 4/6 which I think is doable, we will be relying on other results in our favour. <br><br>
    Bulldogs<br>
    North<br>
    Blues<br>
    Sydney (at Etihad)<br>
    Richmond<br>
    Brisbane

    <p>I don't think your list is mature enough to win 5 of those, but the great thing for Saints supporters is they can go to the footy with an attitude they can win any of those games, and an expectation of winning 3 of them. That's a great thing. </p>

    Yeah we are in that good phase of development where promise is high but expectations aren't over the top and every win is "great". <br><br>
    Whereas the likes of Richmond and Collingwood still expect things that simply aren't a reality when a proper inspection of where their list is really at.

    Woohoo, we hold on for the win against the Dogs. Poor Doggies they were down to one fit player on the bench. <br><br>

    The Lions are even rubbish at being shit. Beat the Bombers, so we can't even get a #1 pick. What a shit season

    Went to my first ever game tonight. Tigers v Hawks. Surprised how much I enjoyed it despite the 50 odd point thrashing. Would be good to see two quality sides go head to head. Was a masterclass by the hawks in the 2nd half.

    <p>If you haven't seen it, do yourself a favour and watch Jacko on Open Mike last night. It's TV gold. </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>It was brave of Sheahan to bring him on, given Jacko openly fucking despises him. And makes absolutely no secret of it during the "interview".</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>There are some great tweets about it floating around as well. Best one i saw was</p>

    <p>"If Jacko doesn't shut up soon Collingwood will make him a board member"</p>
