Re: 2005 QF v 2009 PF

Yeah '97 was the best and been there was even better, but also we were the complete underdogs and the tackle by Burke (and not sure who else) on McKernan was a game changer. I think I actually shed a tear because the Saints finally got into a grand final. I agree '09 was more of relief and '05 whils...

Re: Which club to you hate the most?

There are a number of teams, although I did vote for Essendon and the whole drug saga, but then I remember back to various games and Hawthorn had some pretty obnoxious supporters, so did Geelong back when they were winning everything. Sometimes it depends on the fans on the day. I have never barrack...

Great lad speaks really well ! Would get my vote for our next captain over Armo.... I love Margrook my favourite footy show all week! Gilbert McAdam does a great job selling the Sainters!

Re: the media's friends-St Kilda (+ audio from coaches box-r

I loved how when Nick tried to talk...he just said listen to me. Loved the excitement at the end because when they showed that on TV, you always wonder what they are saying and their reaction....brilliant!

Re: Hawthorn moving training base to dingley

Dingley...grew up in that place when I first moved over from the ditch as a little one. Even though I don't live there anymore, hate to see the Hawks there. There were a few Saints players that lived around there. David Grant...(would drive by his house just to see a glimpse of him...not stalking at...

Re: Guess this weeks ins and outs

After last weeks (well second half) performance, it would be hard to drop anyone. However you sometimes have to look at the opposition and who is a good match up for who. It is a hard balance between wanting the kids to play but also having experience out on the park... As for changes, if Savage is ...

Both are awesome but had to pick Plugger for his presence on the football field.

When are we going to vote for Riewoldt vs Lockett or did I miss it?

Re: Our favourite Saint - Burke or Winmar - Vote now

This is probably the most difficult one so far, love them both as i loved watching them both play. Burke tough as nails run hard where as Nicky was silky smooth and would hit a target easy as. Had to pick Winmar in a very very close one.

Like the end part is it a dig??? - "Next year we'll be doing what 3AW Football has always done best - comprehensive, entertaining and accurate match coverage and analysis,"
