Re: Who is your round one Smokey?

Callum Wilkie. Carlisle and Austin are injured, Brown is suspended and Clavarino is probably not ready.

Re: Anyone hear Finey on the 3RRR Party Show last night?

Round 22 1980 St. KIlda played North Melbourne at their home ground, Arden Street. Across town Fitzroy played Carlton at VFL Park. The Saints were second bottom on the ladder, 2 points ahead of the Lions who were last. Both teams were desperate not to get the wooden spoon. On the eve of the game Li...

Re: Draft Night Video - Intense!

I was invited to a meeting last night hosted by James Gallagher and all the new recruits. James indicated that they tried to trade up into the early 30s in the draft when no-one had taken Jack Bytell by pick 30. They were very keen to get him but couldn't get a deal done. As it turns out we were abl...

I have heard that both Jack Billings and Jack Steven have asked for a trade. I take it all with a grain of salt.

Re: We are in the Friend Zone

That was us for decades prior to the early 2000's as well, but from about 2004 onwards (particularly when we really hit our straps in 2009) I've never heard so much spite thrown at a team from opposition supporters than towards the Saints...people are only happy when we're losing. Bring on the hate...

Re: Torn-big time!

I feel physically sick at the position the club are currently in and this has been by far the least enjoyable season ever, and this includes the 1980's. Unfortunately I think that the club will take a massive financial hit next year. Considering we already have a ten million dollar debt it could be ...

Re: Trade Whispers Update

We have said we were going to be big players in the trade period the last two years and delivered nothing. The last two years no one wanted to come to us. This year no one will want to come to us AND we have nothing to trade. We are in a world of pain.

This comes two weeks after he was pictured laughing with opposition players after a game. Our current position certainly doesn't seem to upset him too much but that may just be his personality type. I do agree that at times he looks lazy but so do the rest of our team. Everyone talks about the last ...

I don't know why Newnes never gets mentioned in these types of discussions. Considering his experience he is a massive under performer.
