Who takes up the little runt Milne for us ? I swear Saints have the two most 'want to hate players' in Milne & G'Train. Mind U we could have had the G back in 2000, in which case he would have been ok.
Heater has been quiet for a few weeks (based on his standard this year) so reckon he will fly for us this week, and hopefully Pendles will spend more time up the ground this week, make the opposition come to him. Noticed in Hawks match though that the zoning from Kick Ins by the opposition we get caught out to easily, based on the number of points we kick you'd hope we get better at that...I reckon best solution is kick a goal not a point !! LOL :wink:

The candidates would seem to be: Cox, Goldie, Harry, Iles, Tarks, JB, and Licca. Out of those, Licca lacks pace, Harry is needed for the big blonde sook, probably play Goldie down the back too. Cox is pretty useful attacking through HB and the middle, Tarks is far too useful covering ground and picking up kicks, and maybe a little lacking in toe over the first 5-10 metres.

I'd do one of two things: give the job to Johhno, or to Iles. Either way, the other one of those two stands ready to be swapped onto Milne if needed, and if all else fails, we call on Mr Fixit (Goldsack).

Hmm, I reckon rather than use Johnno put Cox on him, he's got a good build (& pace) so he could put Milne on his b/side, also like U said "Tanin" he could rebound to HB & Midfield. Cox wouldn's need to 'tag' as such, I reckon we will need Johnnos run through from the back to get past Ball & Santo, allowing Johnno's experience on Harvey when needed.
Whatever happens, I'll be there with my kids giving the boys a boost after missing out on last weeks match ! I so want this win !

I think he will be OK.

This game will be a cracker. The weather will be the factor here as well. We need to win to maintain any chance of a top four finish. They need to win for a top eight finish. Rumour has it Maxwell won't play. I rate the Saints on ballers as one of the best in the leauge and it's those players around them that kill that team not their on ballers. Shut them down you win. Like the Swans, negative game plays into our hands while we are undermanned.
