Post: # 684899Post sainteronline »

Who will you blame

2) Robert Harvey for staying too long

3) Ben cousins

4) the board for not picking up Ben cousins

5) Ross Lyon

6) Ross Lyon for not picking up Ben cousins

7) Ross Lyon for getting rid of Harvey

8) Ross Lyon for not getting rid of Harvey soon enough

9) Max for being the oldest player on the list

10) all of the above

11)oops nearly forgot peckett,winmar,burke,loewe or thommo

Clueless and mediocre petty tyrant.

That late into the year? I reckon some will have that discussion if we happen to lose our opening game for the year!

Those who compiled that list forgot to put Raph Clarke on it, too. And John Beveridge. And Grant Thomas. :roll:


Still waiting for closure ... if you get my drift.

In all fairness to me

it was stated in another thread that Robert Harvey has been holding us back

so I just wanted to see what the excuses for next year would be

I prefer to blame the real culprits - Demetriou and Anderson.


The more you know, the more you know you don't know.
When I was a young child, I knew that I knew so much about so much.
Now that I am old and know so much more, I know that I know so much about so little, and so little about so much.

Deal with it if and when the time comes.


The lid is off after Round 2! Enjoy the journey, coz you just don't know where we'll end up. Live for today and seize the moment.

no we must knock it on the head now

cannot have the dog wagging tail or is that the wagging the tale of the dog no no wait the tail wagging the dog, that's it

no more of this messiah complex

Max must go

it's his fault that Lyon never recruited Ben cousins

and that Harvey quit because of all the adulation

So you got nothing better to do than bait people? If you want to have a dig, at least have the balls to do so directly. And you reckon I've got mental issues.

Dude, we had this discussion last week. Ok?

I didn't bait you. You wanna make infantile comments about other threads, that's your call. Keep me out of it.

If you're going to argue the point, at least get your facts correct regarding who said what. Last week, you accused me of being the type of loser supporter who holds the club back. Now you're having a dig because I have an opinion about idol worshipers? Where did I state that Harvey held us back? Get real kid.

SP2008 can fight his own battles.

If you wanna play with the big boys... get a clue. If you want respect, try posting something intelligent for once.

I'm still waiting for you to put up the money for the bet, btw. But I doubt you'd have that sort of pocket money, or the guts to put your money where your big mouth is. Squibb. All p1ss and wind.

BIG keyboard hero. OOOh, please don't reort me to the mods. Ooooh, I'm sh1tting my pants again.

Now run along to bed before mummy comes home and catches you on the net.

I would blame Carlton becuase the bookmakers have them at shorter odds than us to win the flag... so they'll take our spot in the 8. I'll also blame Richmond because they recruited Cousins.

And if that fails, I'll blame Archie Fraser for... wel why not? Everyone else does. :wink:

Which Barks, BTW? B4E or the great man himself?

Definately B4E...Wouldn't commit sacrelidge

by associating the great man himself with any St.Kilda shortcomings...one of the untouchables :roll:

Disapointment would be an understatment but with draft pick ups & recruitment it is not going to be a walk in the park. The Ben issue will be a defining moment in our season , if he goes to Richmond & stays drug free & can have an impact then we are gunna think what could have been but on the other hand if he reoffends or has limited success then we can all say I told you so.I really think there was more to gain than there was to lose but I think he will stay clean (for this year anyway )& would of had a possitive influence for whoever picked him up.But I have been wrong before & I doubt it will be the last :wink:
