As the second-highest ranking winners from the weekend's semi-finals, the mighty Saints have been afforded a weeks break before we play the Preliminary Semi at the SFS on Saturday 24th September.

As such, we have a full week's jump on the supporters of either Brisbane or Wests Tigers to get tickets as we KNOW we'll be there. The SFS has always been a sea of red-and-white come finals time since the place was opened & this is now a golden opportunity to make it happen again.

Buy your tickets NOW. The Dragon Army will be in it's traditional home behind the posts, under the scoreboard (Bays 22, 23, 26). Phone Ticketek on 132 849 or visit a store at the website:

Heck yes, 80 minutes baby! I've got my ticket and will be there with bells on and my red v.

 

[da_sharks]

the tigers will be very tough considering your team will have a week off...

 

[Hutty1986]

That's if the Tigers beat the Broncos, they have a pretty poor record against them

If we improve on last weeks scrappy effort, i'm confident we'll beat either side

Who says we'll be playin da Tigers?? i reckon we'll be playin the Broncos

Well the Wests Tigers Fanatics are trying to jump the queue in the seating. A bit of hoo-har happening after they read the article.

A whole stadium to available and they want the same bays. LOL

All it means is that Saints supporters have to get out and buy their tickets early. Doesn't matter who we play as long as we make the SFS red and white!

 

[Godz Illa]

We're also officially (according to Sportstab) on the hard side of the draw. The Cowboys at $15 and Storm a $11 are on the Eels side.

I've ticked the winning box though.

Heck yes.

lol they wanted to split the Northern End - there's like 20 of them, who do they think they are?

They've now decided to retreat to the Southern End. Good desicion fellas.

Btw you comming down Willow?

 

[SHD]

Coming down for this one Willow?

 

[Willow]

Not sure yet... there's a few issues of importance to get through. Would be great though. I should know in a few days.

I saw that yesterday and made the same conclusion Godz Illa.

What I can't understand is how we're still the premiership favourites.

You'd think with the weekend results and the easier run that Parra have, that they'd be shorter odds by now. Apparently the punters still don't see it that way.

What bay is they army going to be in, apparently the TigPies Fanatics have reserved the bays that the army has ALWAYS been in for the finals matches, Under the Big Scoreboard. Saints fans have already bought seats in that section, so is that where the Army (The real one, not this tigpies one) will be?

 

[Albinomonkey]

i can't fire up, i'm too nervous.

I'm pretty sure they'll f/o to the other end but if you have'nt already bought tickets and wanted to stand with the army buy into 22 or 21 if you can. That's where they where planning on taking over but we've got a weeks jump on them so it should be should okay.

The Wastes Tigers can f**k off to the Southern End, as far as I am concerned. The SFS = Saints Football Stadium

sh*t ON, sh*t ON, sh*t ON THE TIGERS BELOW, BELOW!!

Tigers have probably been the only team to really trouble the Dragons this year. In both games Marshall and Hodgson really carved up and our unpredictable style of play saw alot of clean breaks and a very easy victory at Kogarah.


I think the Dragons would easily dispose of the Broncos as the Dragons defense would be asked fewer questions and eventually the Broncs would tire. The Tigers still have the ability to crumble but unlike the Broncos a brilliant 20-30 minutes minutes from the Tigers can mean 4 or 5 tries like at Kogarah and game over for the Saints.

A brilliant 10 minutes for Saints will put the game beyone=d Wastes Tigers.

Saints are too big & too strong...

 

[Hutty1986]

The Tigers beat us at Kogarah when there was no Gasnier, plus a few other injuries; and even then after we played like sh*t they only beat us by 8

They out 50 on the Cowboys but the Nth Qld defence can be an abosolute shambles at times

 

[weasel]

Gasnier was playing, actually. But Barrett was out and so was Head, and Hornby got injured near the beginning. We were playing without halves (Ennis and Gasnier, and Gorrell off the bench, ended up filling the roles). Regardless, I still think the Tigers are our biggest threat, they racked up fast points against us in our first clash this season as well and seem to have the key to unlocking our defense. But, it's also worth noting that we seem to score points on Wests more easily than we do any other side, we've been on the back foot in both games, blitzed early by frenetic Tigers starts, but when we've seemed to focus the tries have flowed pretty easily. If we play each other in the preliminary final it might be a high scoring game.

Brilliant 10 minutes didnt put you within range at Kogarah, tigers were already in the sheds by then.

Geez calling us Wastes, that cuts deep, very imaginative as well:roll:

LOL, too big too strong, heard that from the Cowboys last week, oh and the Sharks were meant to bash us a few week back.

Lucky for Saints your not coach and Brown might have a slightly more detailed game plan.
