I can still remember Mark Scott and his ability to keep the white stripe on the front of his jumper clean no matter how muddy the Moorabbin mud was. I also have memories that Tony King's first game was actually pretty good. He was still wearing his brown and yellow boots that the Hawks players wore ...

For as long as I can remember we've had a penchant for playing other teams into form!! You are entirely correct. I have no doubt that St Kilda is cursed. It is up to the lads to overcome this adversity. St Kilda also has the ability to rectify other team's injuries - just the mention of our teamshe...

Yup !! We almost never win in Brissie, although a better performance was clearly in order. I would suggest that a final's berth still awaits as long as the lads perform their standard second half of the year performance. Its not like we were much better off at this stage of the season for the last f...

I dont understand these selections. From what I can see neither Dempster nor Maguire are in form. If we wanted to bring in a defender why not Ferguson, who is in form? Crap selections if you ask me. Weak as water. Certainly seems that Dempster is a selection made on hope not on form. Then again, he...

I still remember leaving the final in 2006 and how helpful you were. Pointing me in the direction of the gate as I left a minute from the end of the game.

Bill Picken from Collingwood (and Sydney). A player made to look great by the umpires...he could do no wrong.

Perhaps Craig Bradley as well...very good player who played forever but mastered the art of receiving.

Special mention Mr Wanganeen - you can't touch this !!!!

Seems Seven have not learnt from last year's reluctance to show live footy. Looks like I will have to follow the ...
