Re: Wealthy St Kilda figure Gerry Ryan and former coach Grant Thomas endorse Larry Benge to join Saints board

Crouch has been good, but he is virtually the same player as Dunstan. We recruited yet another "inside" midfielder. One of the two had to go. And the younger player Dunstan was quickly snapped up by the premiers. We just keep doubling and tripling up on the same types... how many small fo...

If Blake's the right person, has ideas (is not just a yes/consensus man) and is a clear thinker - why not? Does he have the expertise/gravitas? You need someone who will command respect. as a member of the board, will the dentist command respect ? Especially as he will probably will go and tell Gra...

We need someone new and motivated on the board to make sure we are indeed turning the corner and now on a new track. To keep the incumbents honest. This is St Kilda we are talking about ... things need to change. You want someone new? Jason Blake has been nominated by the board. I would rather have...

Re: Tristan Xerri

In 2021 our ruck back ups for Ryder and Marshall were McKernan and Hunter. In 2022 our ruck back ups may well be Campbell and Hunter. I think if we take Campbell you can say goodbye to Hunter. I thought about that but then i thought, we picked up McKernan and Hunter = 2 back ups, so maybe they like...

We keep hearing and reading about how times have changed and that players are playing for themselves (i.e their families future) more and more. I know few will agree with me (or pull the COVID card) but we don't have a gang mentality. We are not a pack of dogs locked in instinctively to get the pri...

Re: Pick Swaps

Each NGA player will cost St Kilda 197 points If we have to match prior to pick 41. From the trading done it looks like they're expecting our NGAs to go after 41 so they're only costing us next single pick rather than 2 picks combined, but the points of those combined are still enough should one of...

Re: No Harvs for us ....

I don't think Ratts would like having Harvs breathing down his neck as an assistant. I have no issue with this. Me either. Besides we burnt Banger before. Would like former Saint McQualter from the Tigers but so would the filth and Carlton, or so I hear, banger burnt us, not the other way round.

Costa, Cook and Thompson transformed Geelong at all levels and deserved the remarkable success that followed. Absolutely no doubt.
Plus Balme coming in was the final missing piece in the puzzle.

That was at the ‘end of an era’ speech in 2011. He was basically saying “I don’t think this list can do it” I think we were the most dangerous team leading into finals in 2011 and I was so disappointed in the way we played in that elimination final.
