The stand alone VFL club thing is a complete non issue. The relationship between the two clubs is important though. We'd have been absolutely non competitive in the VFL if we stood alone, and a non competitive environment is never good for development. We've been somewhat competitive due to the non...

Seeing the goal post get a 'lap of honour' by Saints fans definitely sticks in my mind

It's a good opportunity for Carlton

Yep, an opportunity for Mike Carlton to interview the Saints over their huge win over the Blues

Don't worry, we're just lulling the other clubs into a false sense of security. When they least expect it, we will strike like a cobra!

Really that long ago? I was at that game, seems like yesterday. Still can't believe there was no rule in place for a cancelled game. There was always the possibility of flood, riot or one of those old wooden grandstands catching fire when the rules were drawn up. The outcome really sucked.

Maybe they knew we had no chance of winning in WA, so they rested players?

OK, I'll play "Goats are like mushrooms, if you shoot a duck, I'm afraid of toasters"

The Sainters are doing better than I thought they would this year. We have played two lousy games but been competitive in 6 games, I predicted we would win 6-8 games this season.

What does "paid overs" mean? Is this some new "buzz word" doing the coffee shop / wine bar circuit?

Perhaps a drug test on Carlisle when he gets back here from holidays would settle all arguments?

Good riddance to him, this jerk has been on my 'blocked' list for some time. I just hope the mods have this obnoxious creep's IP address on record so he doesn't sneak back under another name. If he was on your blocked list, then why would it bother you whether he was here or not? Because I don't li...

After years of multiple warnings and two bans, Plugger66 has been deactivated.

Another 'five year plan'?

No, it has always been, is, and always will be Carlton. Win Loss doesn't matter - they have always been the most arrogant, self righteous, cheating, and dishonest of all clubs. Compared to Carlto, Collingwood are almost OK. I recall in the early 80's Carlton demanded St Kilda be penalised "for...

I don't recall anyone 'booing' Michael Long and he was very outspoken in regards to indigenous Australian issues.

There was no booing of Goodes until he became a gilt-edged sook. No racism, people hate sooks! I suppose all the booing of Carl Ditterich was anti-German racism? What about the filth screamed at Milney? Why was he a sook? Because he didn't want to be called an ape or that he spoke out at AOTY award...

At the start of the season I guessed St. Kilda would win 4-6 games

Some putrid "opinions" on this thread. Not a top ten pick - pfft. When asked what it was based on gave Petracca as a name. Where are the other eight how are better. Really Goddard must be really hopeless. Hasn't even been in the team yet. Both have had six weeks. Delist both. Fair Dinkum,...

I don't think Paddy was a top ten draft pick, but he will improve. Petracca was the obvious choice. none of these guys have played yet 6 Caleb Marchbank 7 Paul Ahern 8 Peter Wright 9 Darcy Moore What do you base your information on? The fact he is an ordinary player in the VFL and Petracca was a cl...
