That was a fantastic tribute but please can the next legends of the club be 22 players who win us a flag. Why can't we just accept it for what is was - a wonderful tribute to perhaps the greatest Saint of all time. Plugger why don't you think of Rob Harvey instead of your own sniping selfish effort...

A desperate punt by the match committee that never came off - might just of cooked his goose but I thought he got a new contract last year that means we have to trade (???) - not sure we are in the position to just cut him.

FOr Gods sake lets not start bagging Armo. Other players, ok Raph, How long have they been with us now. 4 long years. Hardly setting the world on fire. Only time he plays well is against poor quality teams, then everyone screams how good he is. Not that he is alone. Bev I always considered you thou...

i thought he struggled under the pressure tonight, especially early on and what the hell was with the right foot banana as he was running the ball out of defense in the first quarter? horrible turn over Your name says it all - On this basis I expect to see 19 critical posts on the other saints play...

Let me guess Jamie you are a disillusioned colliewobble ! P#ss off and go and chase some cars.

To win a bet against a sooky Crow can someone tell me please which players we had missing from our prelim & finals in 2004 & 2005.
I have a feeling we had some significant outs.

Knowing a fair bit about epilepsy, his medication would have controlled it from day one - and I am guessing the club had him at some top specialist. I personally think its a confidence thing - Raph is starting to believe he can play at the elite level and is not thinking he is going to be the first ...

Big Mart you have set a precedent - I look forward to your views when opposition players do exactly or worse than what Milne did and get away with it. Because I am telling you - there is nothing surer.

Sam's the one - left only and even then he sprays it all over the joint.

Don't worry too much about it Rog - I'm guessing you were a bit tired and emotional :D after a pretty sorry day.However Nick probably had a few brownie points up his sleeve for the last half of the years efforts that might have saved the "sheila" tag. Any logical comments without being per...

Can't argue with too much in this TTT in regard to the Saint player comments - in fact pretty measured & well articulated.
However don't get too excited someone will come in with a major rant and try and shoot everything you have stated into flames.

Agree we just couldn't win the ball in tight. Dumb arsed options when we did have it out in the open didn't help either. Not sure we can turn this around in a week - be a miracle if we did after todays effort.

Agree X - Nup. Raph was O.K - went to ground one time going for a low option diving mark. Needs to keep his feet - but improving heaps. Kosi - Geez when he did get it he coughed it up giving dumb arsed handballs. As for bringing Gardi in the ruck - Fair Dinkum you could have Polly Farmer playing for...

Roger you usually talk sense - but I suggest you are way off the mark and probably had one to many shandys at the function today. Disappointed if that's the way you would behave (or others) but each to their own. Humility doesn't hurt anyone - what did Scarlett have to prove - surely the result woul...

Eddy turned the ball over a number of crucial times (And yes others did as well :roll: ) Tackles ? Put it this way there weren't too many chase from behind ones. Not sure what Mini gives us ahead of Birss. X needed the run - can we afford to give him another chance? Armitage - manages to get the bal...

If Milney cost a goal for that soft crap why didn't they (p#icks trying to umpire the game) award another free shot at goal kick when Blake gave a bigger shove after Johnson courageously kicked the freebie !

Their midfield is running riot - no wonder we don't look like it ! Any chance we could just shut down a couple of their guns - a better defensive (forwards and midfielders) effort this final might see us get some credibility back.
Would Birss been worse than Mini ? Hmmmm

Be fantastic if he could hit a saint on the tit as well as he manages to pick out the opposition !

Agree simply not good enough consistently enough.

Well who are they ? - lets face it even some of our young players look dead set average - at the very best they will be ordinary. Time to cull and keep turn over until we find some GOOD players.
A wsated trip to see that first quarter dished up.

Gilbert - is there any chance that he will not burn the ball every time he gets it.

What is it - a calf injury or a quad injury ?

The very reason we should be sh#tting ourselves - lose the winnable and sometimes (?) sneak a win against the odds !

St Pat you will get over it - by Friday you will have the old saint spirit back and be hoping for a win. (I remember when we lost the GF in 97 - never watched the news, sports radio or the sport pages for 3 weeks - living in Adelaide I became a hermit. We are a win away from getting a smile back on ...

Time for a spell - he has played one good game and has had a better go than others. RL needs to be consistent.
