Saints dont really run with a tall forward line, they have leadup types like Membrey and Bruce and then rely on smalls like Billings,Gresham and newbie smalls Parker and Young.
They will look to run it in and hitup Membrey in particular, he doesnt miss very often so denying him the footy will go a long way to winning the game.
Parker is a highlight reel player, can kick the freak goals and also takes big speccy's like Liam Ryan but lacks consistency.
Josh Steele usually plays on Cripps and does ok, Dunstan is the relief tagger but there is no Jack Stevens this time and they only have junior ex forward in Marshall doing the rucking.
If we do our homework, plan properly we should win this game and win well IMO.....Saints are injury ravaged and run a very small non physical team which should suit us.
