Re: Saints v. Cats Who will win?

I'm a neutral supporter on this one, but would like to see the Cats win.

Is the weather a factor?

Looks wet from Patagonia.

Will a wet weather team have the advantage?

Please no rain! It would be such a scrappy affair.
I'm hoping to see free, fast flowing football that these 2 can play.

Rain, possible thunderstorms & hail. Max temp 14c
Plenty of mud larks in Geelong.
Dal Santo will be to busy restyling his hair every 2 secs in the wet to worry bout the footy.

Adelaide bucketed down with rain and hail all night. Should hit Melbourne around 1pm I reckon.

What do you people feel about moving the junior games away from the MCG? Poor kids, and are we being a bit precious about the oval? In my day........:

Does Footscray exist any more? The difference between the two teams is that the Cats have quality players right down the list, whereas if something happens to the Saints captain, well.....Plus Tom Harley went to my son's school and he is a legend at the school along with Howard Florey!

Molly Coddler! Let em slug it out, i say.

Geelong will win as they have greater finals experrience and perhaps play better in wet weather.

 

[jbocker]

Considering the weather Geelong win. Chapman for Norm Smith, always admired his style since early days.
Who else you reckon for Norm Smith.

Gotta go ...fridge needs a clean out ...too much beer in it!

 

[Santoro]

SAINTS!!! Every quarter....

 

[Prospector]

Lordy, you should look at the weather on the radar about to hit Melbourne. Bugger.

 

[justjohn]

ST.KILDA only because they are called the saints

 

[Agentm]

going for the cats

but if saints win i will be right in the heart of st kilda celebrating

 

[MrBurns]

After 30 years I think the Saints deserve a flag.

They should be 3 goals ahead at least but they cant kick.

 

[tech/a]

Hmm

I'm seeing raw passion from the Saints.
43 yrs of it.
They want it more from what I see.
Should be further up,poor kicking and a x eyed Goal umpire.
They seem more at home in the wet.
If it was dry then a different ball game.
Sainters by 5+ (Goals).
Last quater White Wash.

Re: Saints v. Cats Who will win?

P.S. that goal thing was a typo i meant points

 

[Knobby22]

What a close one!

Re: Saints v. Cats Who will win?

yeh yeh 97, i know that well I cried myself to sleep that night while cursing Darren Jarrmen.

this is a different saints team best i have seen in my 28 years of life.

Sleep tight bud!! : whos it gonna be this time? Chapman, Ablett?

 

[MrBurns]

Saints were robbed, that Cars point that was counted as a goal changed the whole dynamic of the game, we all saw it on TV dunno why the goal umpire who was standing next to it didnt.

So give the Saints a free goal, Cats would still have won by 6 points. It was given straight back to them anyway with some of the stupid umpire decisions. Saints wasted way too many opportunities with misses.

They did waste too many opportunities I agree, but giving them the goal wont make up for the mistake made by the goal umpire, for a start there would have been a kickout instead of a center bounce, we'll never know how that changed the game not to mention the psychological effect on the Saints.

How the hell can a ball hit the goalpost and it goes unnoticed.???

Everyone who was watching the game on TV saw it straight away.
