Where and when: 3:15 pm Today at Giants Stadium.
What it means for the Giants: It’s sort of like a season predictor. Beating the Saints means they can beat teams like the Saints, and might still belong in finals. Losing to the Saints means they can’t beat teams like the Saints, and probably don’t belong in finals.
What it means for the Saints: Sort of like GWS but a win is more expected given they were four spot over the Giants in the ladder last year, A loss would be a bad sign, though
Supercoach Watch
Giants: Josh Kelly,Tim Taranto, Tanner Bruhn, Connor Idun, Tom Green,
Saints: Hunter Clark, Jack Steele,
Father Dougal’s Watch: Matt Flynn. I wanted to say Bobby Hill, so I could make a “That boy ain;t right” joke, but really Flynn., The F2 of the brave and fearless. And, as it turns out, he could score better than Grundy, which would be, well pretty sweet. No Jinx!
Father Dougal’s Tip: Are the Giants still in disarray? Maybe. I think the Saints are steadily improving and am going with St. Kilda by 10

Both my rookie rucks R2&R3 playing against each other in this game. Who to field:
TU Hunter
TD Flynn
Thanks folks. Looks like a landslide decision but I am curious. If you voted above may I ask a further question:
TU If you don’t have Hunter
TD If you have both Flynn and Hunter
Thanks for indulging me
I went Hunter purely because Flynn is coming off an ankle injury.
Same. I think Flynn might be a bit tentative in the wet. See how we go.
So far, everyone’s a winner. Wet weather = heaps of throw-ins and bounces.
Flynn starting to dominate
Late out – St Kilda Mason Wood OUT replaced by Dan McKenzie.
MEDICAL SUBSTITUTE
GWS: Xavier O’Halloran
St Kilda: Mason Wood
Quick question. In my SuperCoach22 player draft if I have a donut on field does the highest or lowest score on my bench sub on?
Tu. Highest
Td. Lowest
Qtr time and Bruhn has had absolutely no involvement in the play. Currently on 0 SC points :/
Bruhn just running around looking pretty
I’m glad I kept Highmore.
Steele doing Steele things ,despite the attention of Cogs.
Flynn looking good.
Half Time (~>3%)
Kelly 56
Flynn 51
Buckley 43 (tech team)
Greene 40
Green 38

Steele 76
Clark 50
Higgins 50
Highmore 41
Hunter 39
Brad Hill 38
Grundy out
Hunter and Boak in
FFS Steele – stop giving away free kicks!! Four against is killing his score … as it not getting anywhere near it for more than a quarter now …
Flynn coming off in massive distress applying no weight on his ankle :/
More strapping to his ankle and will return to test it out
He’s on the field to start the 4th quarter
Bugger. Fynn injured too rd1 you suck go away.
Flynn flying! Whoever had the huge balls to start him at r2 is laughing today
I started him at R1 and Hunter at R2. Don’t plan on having that ruck setup all year, but the impact those cows had on my starting 22 were too much to ignore.
Hickey had a monster game, and Stef represented very good value too.
That includes me.
Missed out on Gulden and Rowe but backed Flynn in.
I think a lot of benches have outscored premos this week…
flynn, gulden, Rowe all going big
I love you, Matt Flynn.
Some of the most disgraceful umpiring I’ve seen at the end of the final quarter. Deliberate out of bounds missed followed by a dodgy ruck infringement and then an incorrect holding the ball decision. Lucky there are few Giants supporters to upset…
Sydney teams always get the worst of the umpiring.
The 2016 finals comes to mind as an obvious example.
I don’t know about that, it just bothered me today because it ruined a really tight finish. Even in the wet, a player should not be able to push the ball out of bounds with minimal pressure.
That said, the Giants could have won if they iced late goals so it’s their own fault.
Victorians are weak as piss!
In what context?
Flynn and Gulden are gonna be my two highest scores of the week wtf. If only my premos decided to play as well
I have Flynn, Gulden and Rowe all on the bench.
This is a live reaction of me now:
