Re: Private Messages

I think we'd all appreciate a PM - but why say you're PMing - why not just do it instead of making half the board feel out of the loop? A real get f**ked moment!

Re: Can we please hurry up!

They can’t be real Saints supporters if they cancel membership every time a coach is sacked. I’ve seen 21 coaches since I first watched the Saints and I still support the team. As I've said elsewhere, this isn't about a coach being sacked, it's about bringing back a coach who's shafted us once alre...

Re: POLL Y or N- happy for Ross to be our guy again?

It's funny isn't it that it's largely those who complain about the club too often 'bending over' who are.so keen to take another shafting from Ross Lyon. We're like a battered wife, blaming ourselves and begging our abuser to come home. I'm afraid those who think he'll make us relevant and respected...

Re: Welcome Ross Lyon

So it's back to the future. We officially have no new ideas. I expect the delay has been something to do with Lyon trying to make sure the deal was in the best interests of the st Kilda football club. Hahaha.

Re: Go Saints Gurls . Great jumper today.

I'd like to know what the process was before appointing dal santo. Clueless. And someone suggested bringing him over to coach the men. In a way I wish they would - if it means then they'll appoint a proper coach for the women.

I sorta think there is something wrong with that actually. I don't think it sits very well with 'strength through loyalty'!

Re: YOUR CHOICE FOR NEXT COACH

I guess we’ll follow the modern trend of running a “process”. I can see why clubs do it as it gives them an “out” when things go tits up, some sort of plausible deniability. Would be refreshing if the club just picked someone and backed them in. I agrree. If Lyon wants the job, give it to him. Spar...

Tough call brave call and rather than worry about the perception from outside the club they just did what needed to be done.

Re: Clarko and the Hawks alleged disgusting behaviour.

This appears to be the result of a club operating at the extreme end of the 'professionalism' spectrum. They've behaved like a cult. Stripping players of their phones. Demanding they should have no distractions. Cutting them off from their old lives. Whichever poster said they were sure the coaches ...

Re: Clarko and the Hawks disgusting behaviour.
