NAB Cup points the way

the Saints easily conceded the least points and in their four meetings it was the Saints' defence that prevailed.
In fact in those four meetings last year - one in pre-season, two during the regular season and the preliminary final - the Dogs kicked a total of just 32 goals and lost all four games.
But they are counting on Hall to give them the kind of marking target so lacking in the big games last year.
And if the former Sydney bad boy - who has starred in the pre-season to date - gets the Bulldogs home on Saturday night, then their long-suffering fans will be entitled to genuinely believe it might just be their team and not the Saints that end the Cats' dominance this season.
