Gaertner yes. Cahill.... his height is all he has going for him..... will not be retained IMHO. Gaertner has a lot less hope of being retained next year compared to Cahill. Not sure if you go any Sandy games but Cahill has been one of the best so far this year. Praccy match form Plug? Yep praccy ma...

What things? That Roo would injure himself at the last training session prior to the GF? That Melbourne would produce the worst rain/hail we'd seen in ages, heavily curtailing our aerial effectiveness? That a number of players who had been very accurate previously inexplicably missed easy shots at ...

RL acquired a bloody good basis of a squad from GT. Thomas acquired an amazing squad from the biggest draft bonanza in VFL/AFL history and managed to send a list from heaven, half way to hell in 5 years! Lyon inherited a very slow, pedestrian team, unfit and poorly conditioned! Was he a better coac...

Some supporters see players as they are and why. I dream of players that they could become and say why not? One of "fun" things for me as a Saint's fan has always to watch the raw talent. Used to love watching the Reserves and used to always arrive at games at 11am to do so. Ah! Fond memo...

I have seen Cahill in a couple of Sandy practice matches and he definitely has picked up since last year, can take a good contested mark and knows how to kick a goal. Good to hear Bernard.

Welcome to the "Lets All Kick Rodger Thread". :roll: RF is right, the proof of the pudding is a premiership.... nothing less. RL acquired a bloody good basis of a squad from GT. He has fine-tuned it to a solid top two side. He has learnt a lot about the coaching game whilst he has been wit...

Carey's career is over. If the poll was taken in five to ten years time, I'd be surprised if Brown wasn't level pegging with Carey.

Do we still need...

The ""still looking for sponsors"" banner?

Thought we had achieved our sponsorship target.

Brilliant idea, and served its objective, but perhaps we should mothball it for next year. Will alteration to 2011 of course. :D

So when a company sacks an employee, you have to tell them "Oh by the way you can go get another job somewhere else if you want" ? News to me Baaaa Baaaa Not every ex-employee makes front page news sueing their ex-employer. And I have been known to point out the direction of the Centrelin...

Re: Let Lovett play elsewhere.

The message that he is free to play elsewhere has obviously been lost in the hurly-burly. Lost by who? Everybody I speak with on this seems to understand that we've sacked him. I saw a difference between being sacked, and being free to play elsewhere. I get suspicious when all we hear is "Lawy...

Re: Let Lovett play elsewhere.

Nobody said anything about St Kilda advising the AFL. I just said that St Kilda should issue a public statement saying that Lovett is free to play elsewhere. Public opinion amongst non-st Kilda fans is that we are preventing him playing anywhere. Hence we are not getting the sympathy that we deserv...

Re: Let Lovett play elsewhere.

Lovett was sacked by St Kilda, he is no longer a St Kilda player so what business is it of St Kilda to advise the AFL as to what Lovett should or shouldn't do, now that he is no longer a St Kilda player? FAIR DINKUM, which bit of that did you not get! Which bit of it did you not get? Might be a goo...

Said what? That he is sacked? It's not up to St Kilda to tell any other CLub what they should do regarding Lovett. He's not a Saints player any more so we've got no right to tell him or anybody else what he can/cannot do, other than when it pertains to St Kilda. As for the AFL, they haven't told hi...
