But does Ben acknowledge the horror & hopelessness of it???

Have realised I made HUGE ERROR last night in naming Eicke at no.10 because Pop always maintained BILL MOHR was the best he'd seen - met Bill Mohr's widow in queue for finals tickets in '61! Many of the old timers at St.Kilda when I was a kid maintained Mohr was the greatest Saint of all!

I've been saying for years that when the Saints win another flag I'll get a tattoo. I too have a low pain thresh hold but it will be worth it. Can't possibly be worse than the pain of '97! 2004 !

Injury-free BOTH Clarke's have the skills, talent to be match winners.Very creative and exciting players.

Would be happy to see the boys getting tatoo to celebrate their Premiership win.

What justification ,if any, did they give for this farcical title?

Can non-saints stay OFF this thread UNLESS they as outsiders have a GENUINE contribution to make!
Personally I don't know where you're coming from - why bother acknowledging you're concerned/interested in the Saints?
Stick to your own

My hero was Darrell Baldock - Lockett was the best - BUT the greatest EVER was TREVOR BARKER. He alone brought people through the turnstiles when the club was on it's knees ,like Harve's the epitomy of loyalty, and sacrificed financial gain for the sake of the club. If he had been at a successful cl...

Does anyone know what his attitude & behaviour has been like since he joined the Saints!!!!

Can we now close this thread & go to the new one? Saint Mik don't tell me you still want him?

My brother-in-law an x-alcoholic-'though he classifys himself "recovering" & is now AA/Drug councilor & I have had heavy discussions on Ben - my once suffering sister involved too - Both say until User admits problem/addiction ,NO BODY/NO-ONE can Help! Ben has never really acknowle...

66!! vs Melb.'63 - Carl Ditterich's debut- you had to be there to appreciate it- out of a Boy's Own Book to quote Press of the day! AWESOME! 97 Prelim. Final- Brilliant! The win at Wav. after Trevor Barker's untimely death. Beating the Filth at Victoria P when NICKY WINMAR STOOD PROUD & TALL &am...

Have not heard anything but recall is meant to be really special. Have a feeling he's a couple of years off yet.

:D Oh Dear, this thread brought back SO many memories!!! The fleecy navy blue jacket that Mum bought me at 8-had zipper down front before tacksuits were in!! - spent hours sewing St.Kilda badge on front & cutting up perfectly good white sheet so I could sew 43 on the back [Leo Garlick for the ig...

Wonder how many of these posters saying NO to Collard said YES to Cousins?

Hope he's happy, hope they both come back to Aust. to live and hope they produce some happy,healthy Saint recruits!

Luke was in year 11 when drafted! The only reason he wasn't No.1 draft pick is that he wanted to NOT play league footy so he could complete YEAR 12! GT respected that & Saints drafted knowing he'd virtually sit out a year.

Don't really care about the pre-season cup but would like to see a blend of recruits/fringe players given a good run and the likes of Gardiner playing every one for match fitness after long lay-off. The fickle supporters will jump on the bandwagon quickly enough once we string the wins together in t...

Hope Fox is NOT involved at St.Kilda! Unlike RB & Pratt he certainly didn't put his hands in his pocket to help club previously. If he really loved the Club would have got on board as sponsor years ago - to my knowledge he's never even sponsored a player & we never hear mention of him attend...

Worth every cent just to read Jim Mayne's letter section with Swan supporter's letter re our draft coupe!

Have "had" the slogans! The badge & motto says it all!

JILLIAN!!! - only ever got called that when I was in big touble as a kid !

Great to read - WELCOME DAVID MISSON, WELL DONE ROSS LYON
GO SAINTERS 2008!

After watching Catalyst on ABC ice ,if taken in moderation can definitely be performance-enhancing. Iit's NOT just a "recreational" drug. Show also illustrated how easy it would be to "use" without others being aware. :cry: I just wish press would leave Ben alone and let him conc...

Yes.
