Re: My favoite St Kilda players are: ?

Who are the players you love the most? For me, it is totally based on my timeline/age... Nicky Winmar If I had to choose a top ten...(I was born '63, my Dad a Queenslander and a Rugby League native) 10. Ditteritch 9. Jeff Sarau 8.

You mean a wingman in an era when players who had set positions who could do a cameo as a forward and kick 9 goals?

Yep, Cuz was a freak.

Re: Rounds 2 to 5

I tuned out for a lot of the second half of the Norf game as I was more focused on the season shutdown news. I’d love to know the effect that had on our players vs North. I asked that very question on here post-match and was reminded that e did show up and play well - for the first ten minutes of t...

I tend to agree on this case. Cloke had a great career but he was cooked. Even the greatest of them all - Plugger - was old and slow and useless in his final comeback year at Sydney.

I don’t always buy the mental health card in every instance.

Even without crowds we get the f****** Sunday twilight.
MMM said Sunday night, which would rate better than twilight - good for our sponsors.

I hope Sunday night becomes a regular slot in the no crowd at games era - they should add Monday night also during this weird time.

Great player but flawed personality. I'm still very bitter about the way he "left" our club. And would have been really pissed off if he starred at Pussy Park, particularly given the peanuts they paid for him. Maybe this is the karma bus. Must say I agree 100% but also really hope Stuv do...

Focus should not be on wiping out debt. I hope we are paying the minimum off and investing everything we can into the club.
