Maybe you cant read but it was front page of the papers and first item in the news not that you care but you still comment. Strange.

And the impact of this huge story is?

I can vouche and say I saw Ahmed out during the bye weekend and he was drinking soft drink and water all night, talked to him about the Saints and he was very nice.

Wouldnt have a clue yet. if a player murdered someone the sponsors probably wouldnt have left the club yet but most would.

Ok, so this huge because sponsors are going to leave?

Is that correct? Or am I missing something?

Saints will be lucky to have 20k members next year.

A dismal 32k was probably on the back of misplaced optimism.

I didnt say anyone would leave but they may. One thing I know is it aint a good thing for the club. Actually I also know that for a person who claims no interest you seem to have plenty. Not bad Roger.

Wellington may feel they were sold a dud!
Hopefully we play the giants there and have one competitive game.

Maybe we can move our Anzac game to the MCG seeing as it's unlikely Collingwood will have an opponent :wink:

If the Bummers get a 2 year ban we should push for the Anzac Day game in Istanbul in 2015, lol.

If he's playing still, Saad's goal walk up will start just near Gallipoli.

"Any sanction for Saad could range from a warning to a two-year ban, depending on the degree of fault and care taken by the young Saint."
