Good read and well thought out... Yes the window is wide open and will be for 3-4 more years Should already be one in the bag... Lovett and Peake have been picked to address lack of speed and we need players to address the deficiencies which remain...these need to be pretty much ready to go. Use the...

We will develop an emotional attachment to the new place, as time goes on, because that paddock will be where our team trains and further develops their team plan to stay at the top. Furthermore, the facilities will be leading edge and provide our team with that extra 1-5% they need to keep at the t...

The delisting today of Matt McGuire is so sad....was always on the cards with such a horrific injury and then so many complications and setbacks. Thanks for the memories goose and all your guts and hard work to try to make it back. I think the club can be justifiably proud of its loyalty and perseve...

Stanley Walsh...Tommy's gun twin...coming along as well

Everyone was hanging on to see that the filth didn't get something for nothing

The guys in the team now need to get into Bally's ear and tell him they love him and will forgive all if he comes back and does all the necessary hard work etc.

Sack Connors...manage himself( couldn't do any worse)...and save the 20%

Wonder if I will have the 'honour' of being the final poster on this masterpiece?

Fraser is useless for us...takes up a spot on the list and salary for next to no benefit.

Seems that for a supposedly clever man, Ball has acted quite dumbly through all of this... seems that for a man of the kind of principles and character we were all led to believe, over the past few years that he had...he sold us a pup and sold out to mammon... In the end, he makes the final decision...

Sadly...SO TRUE...your best effort yet BF

Saint Simmo: "gee settle down we will not hit the bottom in 2013 we have good youth coming through, our list is not that old we have armo, steven, lynch, gilbert, zac, stanley, Mcevoy etc. were ok the next three years r our years than we may slip but only slightly." I am actually in agreem...

At least, if we do hit the bottom of the ladder circa 2013....the Gold Coast and West Sydney draft charities will be over and we will get full value for our high draft picks in rebuilding.

Well after all the disappointment of the GF and bad news yesterday, this is just the good news tonic we needed.

Fast and exciting, creative and a goal-kicker. Can't wait to see him, Jack Steven, Monty and, if X can get it back on, tear other sides apart with pace, flair and guts.

Bloody good news!

If we had kicked straighter in the GF we would have won....no one disagrees with that. Everything else is just a post-game hypothetical. It has been said before...RL took one for the team...you don't come out and bash guys in public after such a monumental effort and getting so close...great coaching

The guy sitting second left would want to be sure his gun's safety catch was locked on...

Fair dinkum...less money...!!?? He's choosing to leave a club where he has been a captain, an integral part of the team from his AFL beginnings and thick in the battle with Saints loving football soldiers...he's leaving a team that has paid him big dollars, been loyal to him and which is on the cusp...

Tuned into see this...and it's a shock..to actually see it in black and white, and on the AFL site... but then, not really so much of a shock...the writing has been on the wall...injuries/OP/slow and poor kick, 2nds and lack of game-time...where would he have been heading with us? A great player for...

Bakes was great! Just needed a matching big-game performer down the other end (apart from roo of course) Thought Schneider was the man after what he did to us a few years ago in that prelim. Milney and Kosi sadly lack that consistency, class factor and killer instinct to bank on in a big final

I'm three hours behind you guys...that means I got 3 more sleepless hours than you have before the dawning of the winning day...

sleep well guys and rejoice soon

Counseling session that is.... Just think what a win will do for all of us long suffering Sainter fans tomorrow. No longer a glass half empty... No more negativity...pessimism banished.. No more of the the whipping boy mentality... our loser identity exorcized...walking tall... kiss the asinine astr...

Yeah...Congrats all round due on 50 pages of gospel...

if you jokers never do anything else in your lives...at least you can look back on this

My congrats on the photos too...just spectacular...but no doubt excitement tinged with sadness for us all. Really brings home the atmosphere to me... a long way from Moorabbin now. I too have memories of that training session before '97. We have waited 12 long years since then and the guys will brin...

Tonight was a training run for the cats against an insipid, spent cold, depleted oversold pie outfit. Not the tune-up after a week off that Geelong would have wanted to face our pressure next week. The dogs gave us a good hard honest game...and we prevailed with a good number of players fully down.....

Gwilt in

We definately need another strong, mobile good kicking forward to take the heat off Roo. Has done it before in the finals and has a big body to batter them with.

Eddy goes...he has had too many chances...form is dropping right off and he has had enough this year.
