the 500 Goal club



sorry Bill the jpg is cutting off.

Nice piece for collectors only 100 made. So is the riewoldt one that has his boot signed where their is only 12 made.

[saintbrat]

I'm liking the range of memprabilia that is coming out- giving even the little colllectors something
-ie the badges or the Rooey balls

then the limited number of the higher priced items.

and planty of occassions for them this year- a 250 and a 200 game yet to come in the next few weeks.

Nice piece but Plugger should be front & centre

[Leo.J]

I agree.

[Teflon]

cant believe we have 2 lots of those fwds that have played in the same sides and all have now kicked over 500 goals.......and we got zero flags return...

geezus that shytes me...........but I understand why we hang on to individuals success so much...

Perhaps loyalty was the top criterion

Yes, no knock on Riewoldt but I agree. i'd buy it if fat boy was at the front.

It would put things in their proper historical perspective.

Teflon is correct.

The lack of success at St Kilda results in focus on individuals and the success of individuals.

The problem is that it is teams that win premierships - not individuals because individuals can be curtailed when the season defining games come around including because the opposition focusses on curtailing them.

I have always had a view, and have very specifically put the challenge in past times, that your foot soldiers need to stand up in Grand Finals with one of them "playing out of their skin" and taking the performance of the others with them.

Remember the Adelaide guy who kicked plenty in 1997?

A foot soldier who played out of his skin - and Adelaide won.

I had expectation that Hall could have delivered for St Kilda in that game - but he could not maintain his performance and faded, as did St Kilda.

The Adelaide guy kept kicking goals - was it 5?

Summed it up in one. We have a god culture that probably still exists and will only go away with a flag.

It makes no sense at all that we can have roo/milne and locket/buckets and literally nothing to show for it.

It was Darren Jarman and he kicked six including five in the last. He was a genuine star, much more than a foot soldier.

He backed it up with five in the next year's grand final when the Crows defeated North.

No think TTT was thinking of Shane Ellen

Kicked 5 then never heard of again

- sorry have tried to block that out of the memory banks

too many unhappy memories
