Dont people read or listen. We have no money in our salary cap. Apparently not Plugg, but what on earth was RL on when he spoke of Mitch Clark? If the Saints are serious about bringing in a ruckman they'd have earmarked some cash to get the deal done. RL may have gone but the need for another ruckm...

It's surprising what you can get for pick 30.

Let's hope GT has enough on his plate to give his raison d'être a rest during trade week and the rest of the coach selection process.

And for all we know, it might have been 40 phone interviews.

Posting a loss and being in debt are two different things...

Is there a definition available to be studied regarding a partial ****ing idiot ? I've been away for weeks, and haven't been bothered to post since tuning back in, but this I'll have a crack at.

McCarthy involved in a very ugly scene at an Albert Park house post-Grand Final last year... would not help the club's reputation. Toovey might get wedgied in the locker rooms a couple of times after his little dog act at the opening bounce of this year's round 11 game. Neither are viable candidates.

Are you a mental patient? I think youa re trying to somehow connect the Rhys Stanley trade with overall forward planning? For starters in last years trade period we did not even have anyone working in the job - so thats pretty big up rflection of how much he/we cared about the future. For seconds -...

So going by that even though I dont agree we would have taken the same player, we are actually better off and nothing could be done with forward planning. I would interested in those who say we lacked forward planning to actually justify it. I didn't say anything about who we would take. I just off...

A hypothetical look at our draft and trading under Lyon. 2006 Shane Birss came as part of a trade package with Michael Gardiner. Cost = lollipop We also traded out pick #43 2006 pick #43 = Tim Houlihan 2007 Schneider and Dempster for pick #26 2007 pick #26 = Brett Meredith Blew pick #57 on re-drafti...

Last I looked CJ was a St. Kilda listed player. I think he might be eligible for free agency in 2014 but until then he has to tell the club he wants out and it is their discretion to strike a trade, or he takes his chances in the draft. That is the way it works. Coaches don't "take players with...

The word is that is why he left!

So nothing to do with a $3.5M salary then.

Exactly that. Melbourne, Footscray and Adelaide have a six-week jump on us in surveying the coaching landscape. Not a good position to be in.

Now they have to find a coach with 3 other clubs having vacancies, and the trade period / draft coming up. So he's left a fair trail of destruction....

A couple of questions... Would he come back for less money than he was on 6 years ago Would he tolerate working with an operations manager and reporting to a football CEO Would a current board that included former assistant coach Nathan Burke give him the time of day That's just for starters...

Stunned.

Might help stop the forum database crashing for starters...

How are the online betting odds looking now, I wonder?

Where's the Herald-Sun scoop when you need it?

F*ckers.

i am 100% a st.kilda fan thank you.. im just not deluded enough to think we are better than geelong.. can you honestly say that we are? back to the subject though, fantastic news about ross. im suddenly feeling a lot more confident about our future. so its official? RL is staying for at least anoth...

so its official? RL is staying for at least another season? shocking news for us saints fans. ross has been poor at bringing talent into the team and he has wasted our chance to win a premiership, the window has finally closed.. i can't understand why you are all so happy we have kept his hack to c...

No beef rendang so I went for the red curry with rice.

You can believe that if you like. The club hasnt given the media anything because they dont know anything. RL hasnt given them anything because he isnt sure what he is doing. The media will not say anything negative if he stays. Cool heads get it. The distinct impression I got from Gary's "int...

Gary Lyon on MMM right now scoffing at the Kim Hagdorn report... total bulls***. Deal has NOT been done yet. Not been done YET :? What, you think if ink had not dried on the page that Ross would be saying goodbye to the club and players already? The point is Hagdorn's reputation has just been shot ...
