The picture Seaford painted in my head was of a nice,slightly upper class bayside suburb,then I ventured into the housing market and saw it... Wowee,that suburb would have to be the worst outer suburb in Melbourne. If it wasn't bayside you might as well burn it down. I got flash backs of some of th...

No-one goes there anymore? Do you know where Carlton is? Have you ever been to Carlton? I reckon more people would use the public toilets around the Princes' Park running track in an hour than go to Frankston in a day. I'm talking specifically about Visy when I say no-one goes there. It's a Heritag...

1. visy is a d-u-m-p. the grandstands are a throwback to a bygone era. in terms of the whole complex it is bound by heritage listing. visy will not ever be an elite facility.

I'm anti-Moorabbin in the shape it's in now. TBH I can't wait till we move out of that dump. This sums me up too. I don't care where we move to, as long as we have first class facilities, and the new Seaford training base will be a vast improvement on Moorabbin even if it is in a less desirable loc...

Once everyone has their new training ground, sadly ours will still probably be bottom four. Why do you say this? Our new facilities look impressive, what's wrong with them? I've read on here that, cost of the land aside, our facility itself will be the cheapest of all the new training centres. Gene...

Now how many ppl if I told you ten years ago would have thought that St Kilda would own the best facility in the AFL? You're telling me now and I still don't believe you.

http://www.saints.com.au/news/newsarticle/tabid/5315/newsid/104086/default.aspx Maybe I'm easily pleased, but it all seems great inside, and the building itself looks modern with a suitable colour scheme. Not sure how much you can glean from the facility by looking at that video other than, as you ...

If he can bring that to AFL level he could be a jet.
Does look good. Has a bit of Greg Broughton about him.

Highlight videos are always dangerous though - I could make Clint Jones look like an accurate kick of a football in a two-minute package.

Hope people are right with Miles but I cannot see it. If it wasnt for playing the last 2 games i doubt he would be at the club next year as his form at Sandy wasnt great. He can run but i really worry about his disposal under pressure. Like i said though happy to be proved wrong. I'm leaning toward...

Luke Ball = Care Factor 0 Different opinion from me totally. I like the bloke. Always have. I could never understand the decision and undue force for him to change his game style at St. Kilda given what he did for us was what Collingwood needed too. I honestly believe he is one of the players we ha...
