Re: WHY THE HELL...............

Watch them jump back on if we are top 4 after 12 games...... All supporters are fickle, some clubs including us, just can't afford our supporters to be that way. Well you obviously haven't read my post correctly. I will always renew my membership (as I did for the last 17 years). This is more than ...

Re: WHY THE HELL...............

. And why wouldnt you go to games because we arent a big club? it makes no sense. That sounds more like you are pissed off with our club. Believe me, the Hawks got a much bigger pay-out than the Saints. I'm not pissed off with the club, more with the AFL. I grew up in Europe with a very strong socc...

Re: WHY THE HELL...............

The Hawks got bigger because they got an extremely lucrative compensation when they were forced from Waverley. Unlike the Saints, as with the Etihad deal, got practically nothing compared to the Hawks. To give credit to the Hawks, they used the money wisely. I don’t think the poorer clubs want chari...

Re: 27,488 members as of 12/03/2013?

They don't like Seaford! That’s rubbish. It doesn’t matter Seaford or Frankston itself. The point is that they want to capture the market down there. From St Kilda down the coast has traditionally been Saints territory, and many in the Frankston area. It might take a while, but Frankston could beco...

Re: Family Day

Loved it. Thought it was a brilliant idea to hold the Family Day on the Frankston foreshore, open to everybody, not just Saints supporters. Good marketing ..... and they had the Hare Krishna side show!! Hope they all signed up as members. So it wasn't at Frangga oval? Nope - Frangger's foreshore.

Re: Incompetent umpiring

Dempster head over the ball was collected heavily and the play went on but then when Kosi marked they overturned the decision because he used his strength same with Goddard. They ju...

was less confident going into the port game . Aside from the genuinely one-sided umpiring that game, ..... Well yes, Port Adelaide - with five 50s against us, it's almost impossible to win - after all we were only 5 points down. I'm reasonably confident, but don't forget, the Bulldogs were always t...

Re: We get the points - AFL Statement

Honestly couldn't care. Will it help us make the GF? If so, ok, that's good, if not, it's meaningless. No, it's not meaningless. Personally, I don't care about the NAB cup. However, it's the principle. We've been screwed by the AFL so many times. At least this time they did the right thing, even if...

Where does he get this figure? Can somebody confirm this figure

It seems highly unlikely that you can interview 40 candidates in this short time - particularly a senior coaching position.

this is one of the dumbest theories I've read. Hard to believe that they would throw a game and probably not at all true, but this is far from the dumbest theory.
