True story.

My dog's name is Kosi. As a puppy he would run around without watching where he was going and crash into walls.

Love threads whinging about people whinging. Some crazy people think a FB is an important role and that maybe we should have one. Why don't you STFU?

"Don't kick it!"

"Riewoldt must really love the delivery he's getting."

Interesting analysis. I think of the 2013 group, Simpkin, Stanley, Saad, Siposs and Hickey could become A-graders. Possibly Lee too, although he may be 'just' a very good player in the right place at the right time, and made to look like an A-grader. I know I'm looking through red white and black co...

It's our midfield stars that worry me...I don't see a Hayes/Dal among them We have exactly one of each! But seriously, I agree we can't expect Lee and Hickey to be superstars, but there is definitely potential. Any kid in the draft has the same potential, but at least these two should slot into the...

Can you elaborate on the deal that Pelchen was unable to do that another, more capable 'employee' would have?

Got to say out of our first round picks over the last decade or so only roo and armo have really been worthy. That Goddard kid could play a bit. :wink: Seemingly a lot of people haven't considered that fact that our current recruiters have demonstrated considerable success so far, at St Kilda and e...

Here's the link for those of us not on mobile devices.



I can't say I've watched videos of any draft prospects (this year or any other) so I couldn't offer a meaningful answer to your question.

Looks to have good hands, though.

From a value perspective it could favour them considerably but from a needs basis it could be our best bet! I would trade an airplane for a commodore if I had no other way to offload it, I need a car but I can't fly a plane! For want of a fair trade the full back was lost. For want of a full back t...

Half raspberry-chocolate, half raspberry-white chocolate.

It was entirely my wife's doing. We had a black and white theme (no stripes though!) and she's an Essendon supporter.

EDIT: Yes, that means it was red, white and black inside too. Sort of.

I've posted this here before.

It depends what the problem is, I suppose. But it creates the problem of not having him at CHF.

Glass houses, Bob.

Quoted for truth. "My team has lost heaps more grand finals than your team, so there!" said no one, ever.

When I saw Geelong 50 points down with no goals on the board I was sold. It was nice to see them on the receiving end and I was (dare I say it) happy for Fremantle. It helped me realise that there are two possible outcomes to each season: a) Saints win it; or b) Saints don't win it. I can only imagi...

Saad makes me haapy.

Thanks for the info. Here's the article for those who haven't read it.

A friend of mine called me earlier and we got to talking about the Saints, as we do. He said he heard Scott Watters talking to KB and someone from The Australian (Patrick Smith?) on the radio. I assume that's SEN. Apparently Watters said the Saints will be a juggernaut in three or four years' time. ...

I take it 3D it's the GT section of the thread that offended you. Well let's just say that their is quite a few of us Sainters who, like Saint77, enjoyed our years under GT, Stan Alves & Kenny Sheldon etc. I guess you could say we remain positive as some of us ride the waves of emotion that com...

While I don't disagree with the sentiment of the OP, I take issue with the thread title. http://gosaints123.edublogs.org/files/2011/08/562611-greatest-grand-final-marks1-1lpifgj.jpg Apologies to those for whom old wounds will be opened through viewing the above image.

So maybe he was telling the truth when he said:

I felt I had to express this in meme form.

"The appointment of Robert Harvey as interim coach smacks of amateurism" he said while wearing his zip-up knitted sweater and reading from his iPhone.

I'll take four.

We need another 467 (net) wins to reach the 50% benchmark. That would take almost 19 consecutive "perfect" seasons (25W 0L) If you define a goodish season as say 14 wins and 10 losses. Then it would require 117 consecutive goodish average seasons before we reached 50%, so bookmark 2127. W...

It's not a draw. It's a fixture.

The word draw implies an element of chance.
