So no special allowances because we are such a rabble and that we are financially inept? Thought as much. So everytime we are lumped together with North, Bulldogs, etc it is once again more the point that the commentators/radio personalities don't check their facts and just 'assume' we are one of th...

I second this. Impressive email and I believe that we are going to surprise a few next year. Mark this post!!! You heard it here first!!!

What money from the AFL have we received to bail us out? Don't all clubs get allocated money (which varies due to their financial position) due to the media rights deal? I haven't read or heard of us ANYWHERE having to go cap in hand asking for more like North, Carlton, Melbourne, Richmond or the Bu...

Interesting? Thought it was fantastic. Addressed 95% of the questions on here (if not all of them) and the crap rumours circulating amongst the media.

Well done by the club.

Excellent chat. Members letter was fantastic also. Well done! Club is in good hands, despite the hysterics about us in the media. Might ring up the grapevine radio station (SEN) and start a few rumours about opposition clubs. Seems they don't require fact to run stories if the reporting from the pas...

After listening to the bullish*t spewed by Scott at their best and fairest dinner where he made numerous references to Dal and the quality of player he is and how pleased he is that he wants to come to North, I believe it should be a pick under 20. You cannot carry on about how wonderful he is and t...

Jon Ralph reporting nothing in it. Not usually a fan or hold much stock in what he says, but hope he is right in this case.

Francis Leach also saying it is not true.

I am so over bloomin' football!!!! The smaller Victorian clubs (for that matter, most of the Victorian Clubs) no longer stand a chance. After the Essendope scandal and now this, I have just about had enough of football and I am ready to turn my back on it. Imagine an extra 1 million in our cap? We m...

Is he STILL going on with this on air 3 days later? You have GOT TO BE KIDDING!!! Hate to see what he would say about St Kilda if he hated them!!! Just like to point out what a fool you are Mark if you are reading. I remember tuning in one night earlier this year whilst sitting at my son's footy tra...

They're losing more now! Dreadful station at times. Most of the time these days. It is a real 'boys club'. The only time I tune in regularly is when Cameron Mooney or Demot Brereton are on. Love their insights and knowledge and are impartial (well, most of the time.....). Actually, Friday night sho...

Hearing him talk about Kosi on game day was the warmest I'd felt towards him for awhile. Then he had to emulate Malthouse in a presser and annoy me again. Agree with most of what you said, but I loved his reaction to the journo in the presser. Backed his player in 100%. Sick of hearing the old 'I d...

Some comments from a person who was very highly placed at the club until recently but is no longer there, but still has involvement with many of the players: - playing group is very unhappy with Scott. Main gripe is that he has multiple game-plans, and tries to switch between them too often within ...

Mark Fine is the most anti-St Kilda supporter I have ever had the misfortune to listen to. If he has the opportunity to stick the boots in to St Kilda, he does. His summary of our games and the team (even in our Grand Final appearance years) were never complimentary and he more often than not has a ...

Yes, it's about me.... Not the players Hysterical.... I called it what it was.... I reckon the sponsors went harder, then the board, the the CEO.... Me throwing around a few negative comments, would have been nothing in comparison... JB Put in my box, just like Atilla huh?? Exactly how did that hap...

Well I certainly hope that the people worked at the hotel (as mentioned by Plugger) were not intoxicated when it is alleged that they said the entertainment stayed and did not leave early. Surely, they could be in a bit of trouble. If Pluggers events are accurate, I hope the club come out and defend...

nobody from admin crossing little entertainers off the list You keep saying that… why would 'little entertainers' be banned? It's not really to my taste in entertainment, but I seem to remember the footy show using 'little entertainers' so it must be funny to some? I think setting people alight is ...

Not a concept i get at all, but they don't have to stop at all. You just need to put the resources in and make sure they are adequately supervised. Biggest mistake next to nobody from admin crossing little entertainers off the list, is that nobody took the calls to the club seriously enough, and th...

It's of far lesser relevance that he's a dwarf, someone was hired for a function and set alight, apparently receiving injuries. I dont like the idea of a dwarf doing something like that for money either... sometimes dwarves are injured and occasionally killed by drunks randomly picking them up and ...

"The victim sustained minor injuries as a result of the prank." http://www.afl.com.au/news/2013-09-02/dwarfs-clothes-lit-up-by-saint Convenient that now comes out today. His partner last night said there was no burns or injuries, just burnt pants and shirt. Not to mention that the publici...

Gotta laugh at ppl defending the dwarf's rights and the big mean footballers humiliating him. So hiring yourself out as entertainment based pretty much 100% on your height and wrestling with ppl of similar stature isn't humiliating enough? What exactly is their comic value, other than the fact that...

If there are charges to be laid, lay them, otherwise report on something useful instead of filling our news wires with utter tripe Has anyone on here not been part of end of season footy or cricket trips... Can't believe the beat up.... Did anyone else laugh or was it just me? Come on, FFS, was jus...

A guy takes something, that is perfectly legal over the counter substance, just can't be taken prior to competition and is going to get a no leniency two year ban. Yet a club takes on a program to systematically secretly, off site to inject their players multiple times in order to gain an advantage...

Players have to be extremely careful of anything they take. Even you everyday cold and flu tablet can cause you issues if it contains substances on the band substance list. Everything, including headache tablets, needs to be checked by the club doctors.

How would that be any different from any Carlton game in the past 100 years......LOL

Gram's case did NOT involve violent behaviour. In fact, all parties were quite adamant about that point. Don't treat the Gram case the same as the Lovett or Milne case. OK, stand corrected again. Not having a good afternoon. Should proof read before I post. Gram was sacked due to his STALKING of a ...
