Re: The torment of 14,975 days ago when we were level ...

Jeez 1971 must have been the most heartbreaking of losses. Up by 4-5 goals near 3 quarter time. Can't believe it. It's 10 to zero premierships since then. Amazing stat. Mate, 97 - up by 25 near half time against Adelaide (that would be like being five goals up against Freo now) 2009 - level in time...

Re: Former Saints in FInals

How many games did Walsh end up playing this year. I counted two - including the one against us that he got subbed off in.

Re: Lynch at CHF for the Crows?

I thought we were a real chance against Hawthorn every time we have played them for ten years - but Adelaide are not us, I reckon Adelaide might, if they are lucky, avoid a very huniliating 100 point plus defeat which sets them back 12 months, like North got in Perth.

Re: How many members will we lose if BJ leaves?

If members want to leave because one player leaves then we don't want them as members. I am loyal to players when they are with us, but if they leave well that is it. The St. Kilda Football Club is who I support and follow not individual players. Stupid thread. Spot on - for years the criticism of ...

What a load of crap! Why then, after being a life long footy tragic following Fitzroy almost religiously, did I choose the saints once my proud club folded (taken over, merged :roll: ) to follow?

Re: Carlton Supporters are the worst

Remember an article about feral supporters several years ago - Richmond supporters talking about giving it to Geelong all day - and saying that they wouldn't get away with, or even try to - at a St Kilda match "no way".

Re: Our third biggest win ever!

For me the huge wins always mean more when it is against a traditional club, which includes the Swans.
Interestingly, before 1991 we had only won a handful of games in the vicinity of 15 goals or more. Over the last fifteen years we must have won something like 20-25 by that type of margin.

Re: This Guy (Rossy) can coach

I met him with my son at a St Kilda family day at the Kars St Oval and found him to be a totally likeable guy. I don't think he'd take any nonsense from people who want to pot him, but honestly, would you respect anyone who did?

Re: Congratulations to the St Kilda football club

Since 1997 the club has really turned itself around. We had a few ordinary years at the turn of the millenium but generally overall we have had plenty of highs since we won the Ansett Cup pre-season 1996 and the McClelland Cup for finishing on top of the ladder in 1997. We may not have made finals t...

Re: Debut's for next week

Two rookies that look likely to be promoted next year could get a run. Curren and Ferguson. Not sure if they can be promoted for the last game but both have shown form in the VFL. Ferguson as a 194cm defender may be part of our future and it would be good to give him a taste of AFL. Similarly Curre...

As a supporter back in the dark old eighties when we never beat Carlton much between 78 and 91 (twice in all those years) I really appreciate the fact that in the past ten years we have beaten them fourteen or fifteen times and by big margins, considering that for ninety-odd years we only beat them ...

I cheered when Kosi was subbed off. I was cheering for Watters. Applauding his move. Bold but clever to sub a ruckman for a small forward. There is a reason hundreds applauded.

He didn't swear at the umpire - he swore at OBrien - first time in the history of the game that a player received a 50 metre penalty for swearing at another player apprently.
