As far as instability as an arguement and using 16 years as to prove a point: Bulldogs 6 coaches Terry Wallace 1996–2002 Peter Rohde 2002–04 Rodney Eade 2005–2011 Paul Williams 2011 Brendan McCartney 2012–14 34 Luke Beveridge 2015 By dumping their 5th coach their 6th took them to a GF. Melbourne hav...

I guess my disappointment is based on the club claiming we are building a future...but this year at BEST we have stagnated and gone backward in the development of many of our promising youngsters. A massive list of stars yet few emerging most back peddaling. A few have improved and Ross has picked u...

What I dislike is Richo's assessement of the outcome which he claims was a 'kick in the guts'....same old rubbish...blame someone else. A kick in the guts comes from someone...you can't kick yourself in the guts...right? BUT the loss was not due to an external force but 100% St Kilda staff and playe...

So another year flushed. Excuses from die hards and positive praise from the club for effort...but I ask this... If the club is building yet it is going backwards does this signal improvement? How? What is the strategy? We have almost no overall team improvement. Individuals have had improvements. B...

The issue is culture. I believe their has been a MEGA change for good since even 15 years ago. However...We lack a strong culture. Some would say how can I know from my lounge chair? Culture is easily revealed in the attitudes of the playing group not by being so close you smell their breath. In 199...

Roo is a club legend. His committment to us means we give him whatever he asks...that is how it goes. He wants to play at 50% (thats generous) like he did against Sydney...he gets to play. If someone had scraped together some balls and been a coach and told him to go home and sit on the couch for 2 ...

Hmm

Hmmm

No way! He is not physically defined for such a role. I reckon CHF or set him up with a plate of sangers in the goal square those are our only 2 options.

The standard at every club is play to win...play to get into finals...play to win the grand final. But are we still doing this? Surely no reasonable human (I know we cant be Saint fans and be considered anything by masochistic lunatics :twisted: ) can say we will win the grand final. Can we get into...

ABSOLUTE RUBBISH....we dont need more players to win ...we have excellent young players. We are rich in players from 50 games down to yet to debut. If a team has a gaggle of youth and they are all sh@#t according to many...not more than a few who are worthy of a senior spot.... How about looking at ...

I did not want Paddy at the draft. I still do not think he will make it. BUT ....we have to play him every game he is fit. Every game in the senoirs. Not VFL. He needs 50 games in the forward line and that is seniors not vfl games. If we are not prepared to play him or he cant physically then he has...

The exact moment was when our clueless coach thought last weeks game was great and decided to keep the same team minus obvious exclusions. He failed to rectify a 2nd half capitulation and looked blindly into the sun.

No excuses we have a full team of healthy players. Our best half ever followed by 2 goals in a half?
I dont care about 6 day breaks or who is suspensed it is the same s@#t every year. NO MORE EXCUSES! Let's go! C'mon!

As we relish this fantastic half and frolic shirtless jumping lounge suites like gazelles, high fiving the dog, and calling that Tiger loving mate that said we were rubbish and having a go....remember Maddie. Remember her heart and her passion for life. This year me and the kids are doing it tough a...

I really like Webster. He will be ashamed of his behaviour. Our goal is to be a professional football club. Our goal is to be so damn effective our guys get tagged every week and cop the chatter and niggling...Our goal is to take It, absorb it and beat our opponents down like champions. It appears f...

ROFL

Listening to the radio and a Freo caller says Roo is a cheater for "scamming an oppostion player into a 50 metre penalty". Firstly - this is obviously my opinion and we won so I am suddenly the greatest Saints fan ever and the defender of the faith. Secondly, it is damn bit rich to call Ni...

I ran my mouth about 3 weeks ago and added Carlisle to my dismay about players not living up to the price paid for them. He has disappointed in games for sure but today in Freo he seriously impressed me and I enjoyed watching him defend, mark and rebound. I hope he builds on this performance. He was...

He cant get 20 games in a row when does that sink in? I like him. I hoped he would be amazing. But I was gutted when we didnt take Petracca as mids win seasons nowadays not big body forwards. But really who cares? It is unlikely we will see him play many more this season but 4 or 5 would be great e...

I am not "bagging" Paddy. I think fans (read this as paying members - dont support the club? Your opinion matters not) have a right to question the decisions and strategy of the club. It is quite normal to have a high expectation of a #1 pick being something special. Many fans will compare...

Saints Win! Look poor but we win! We can't put a team in 15th away but we win. Billings could have killed 5 or 6 but 2 is enough for win. So many inside 50's with poor conversion but we win. Jack Steven was not a factor but we win. It was ugly but we win.The midfield looked so weak after the 1st qua...

I do not understand why any of us even hope. Have ylu not been on the planet in the last 3 drafts? Yes we got some ok players further deep. But our top picks since 2000-1 seem to be poor. I still think Billings, trade for Carlisle, and Paddy were just a waste of opportunity. These guys are much bet...
