Its just the power of love... can you feel it? What beer are you on now? I always love people after a few. I just drank a Titje. What the hell is a Titje? It's a Belgian beer. And I think it's also Swahili for 'women's breast'. But I had the beer. I would have preferred the breast to be honest, the...

Did I miss something? Every club has problems. Does ours have a Problem? Perhaps someone can spell it out for me. It depends entirely on what you, as an individual consider to be a problem. From where I stand, the only problem I see is that we haven't been able to seal the deal on Grand Final day f...

........I have been a big wrap for Lyon and the footy admin in the past 3 years, but why can't we admit that not everything's perfect at the saints? The only place we seem to be able to admit it is on here where arguments flame. Heaven help anyone not connected to the club who has the audacity to a...

Well, I love the Saints.

Just thought I'd share that.

We are copping it, from our own too.


But I don't care.


I'm not going to tell anyone else how to support our club, it's up to them.

But I love the joint. Always have, and always will. And the media aren't going to change that.

Pretty sure people have made it clear there were certain elements that they perhaps agreed with, nobody (to my knowledge) has pumped it up as anything more. But you could write the same article about any club, and certain elements of it would be agreed with. Infact for most other clubs over the pas...

Interesting point too about our player welfare manager and other resources not being able to cope with these issues as they have been stretched in other areas. Makes sense considering how we have probably been putting all our eggs into the basket of footy and don't have the finances to adequately c...

It doesn't bother people that the Saints have denied wrongdoing regarding the other NZ incident for days, even to the point of mentioning it at the AGM, radio. Yet now days later, have launched an internal investigation into it? The admin just go about things back the front, and it hurts the extern...

Oh come on everyone, pluggers is an extreme view, but I absolutely agree that if any other club had a shocking couple of months off field (in or outside of their control) they would be copping it as much right now. No they wouldn't. I think the very fact that you call it a 'shocking couple of month...

The concept of a 'bubble' is to block out external uncontrollables. As simple as that. I didn't think it was about hiding things away that happen inside the bubble from the outside world. Most individual sportsmen use a 'bubble' when preparing for a fight or an event. It allows you to focus on your ...

The Herald Sun know how to flog papers. They understand that most people in society are stupid and can't seperate fact from fiction. I think they know that most people don't want to separate fact from fiction. The fiction is often far more entertaining, especially when it's aimed at a perennial whi...

I'm no expert, but I would have thought that when everyone is fresh is when a guy who lacks pace would be most vunerable.

To lose pace after 8 minutes points to an endurance issue rather than a power issue doesn't it?

And I would have thought that an endurance issue could be worked on.

Spoke with an ex-player on New years Eve who used to play under Ross at the Swans. He said Ross was the best coach he'd ever had (he'd also played at another MEL club) and "...was a tactical genius". Not bad accolades! Tactical geniuses and brilliant assistants don't always make for great...

I was more disappointed with Nettlefold's denial that there is even an issue. I was more puzzled by his comments about not being able to play in 2 GF's if you have a culture problem. West Coast played in 2, and won 1 of them when half their team including the captain was completely and utterly off ...

I don't know where to start with answering that question, or if you are even serious about it.
