No BAM!, there's no sensitivity to her criticism. Just rebuttal. There's no raw nerve there because I believe deeper examination of the facts show she is mistaken. I think your arguments are sound, with one exception. That is to describe as "garbage" the argument of throwing up the names o...

Yes it's good to know that the St.Kilda Football Club is at last setting trends and not simply following, both on and off the field. Witness the way most clubs were mimicking our on field style and game plan by the end of last season. Unfortunately, as Verdun mentioned, "SSh, everyone will star...

I heard on the grapevine that Josh has quite a troublesome hip injury and won't be able to play until half way through 2010. Can anyone elaborate?

If given enough opportunities, Armitage and Steven.

I read with interest that Emma Quayle fears for the saints when they "Begin to shed players", in a couple of years time. She bases this fear on the fact that the saints haven't got much up and coming young talent, and she appears particularly concerned about this year's selections. Fear no...

They did plenty of homework on Winmar. He wasn't picked because of his name. Our recruiting team is one of the best going around. A decent pick up IMHO, who will play plenty of senior football. Don't forget the rookie draft. We've got our eye on a few who surprisingly missed out this time around. We...

Don't forget Matthew Drain, one of our best recruits of late. If he's not the best list manager in the business, I'm a Dutchman. In Matthew, I trust! (No I'm not wearing clogs, eating cheese and my name doesn't start with Van der!)

I thought this thread was about Lovett getting caught drinking. Why do so many threads degenerate into these sorts of slanging matches?

Bad luck Leigh. If Dave Misson had of got hold of him earlier, he might have made it. Top young man, he will make it in whatever endeavours he undertakes. Good luck and thanks for the contribution!
PS Cripps better disposal than Harvey??!! I hope that was tongue in cheek and we all missed the joke!

Did bleed for the club for 8 years, but was paid about 3.5 million dollars in compensation. Fair trade? You be the judge. He's gone. Doesn't want to be there, so good riddance. Plenty of others will bleed to take his spot. It's a professional sport after all. He wants the best deal and it's his righ...

If we make the Grand Final again, his only use would be to sing the national anthem before the game.

True CG, not many have coached four premierships. Not many have had the opportunity to coach the best run, historically most successful, well resourced club in the competition for 27 years either. Many who know better than me say if anything, he underachieved. We'll never know. Interesting that no c...

Ah Sheedy! The most over rated person in football. More nonsense from the king of irrelevance. Still desperately trying to remain on the agenda, but is being increasingly ignored by the media as it realises how much crap he talks. Now that he is no longer a coach, his babble is seen for what it is. ...

Does anyone know how Nathan Brown's medical exam went? His selection would only be considered if he passed with flying colours.

Here we go again. The last post has just given impetus for another 52 pages!

To quote Cold Chisel, "You got nothin' I want, you got nothin' I need!"

To show how far the club has come under the current regime, just imagine that Stan Alves was sacked a year after getting us to the same position. Can you see the current regime/structure falling apart in such a spectacular way? I for one, can't. Long may RL rule. He's still only a 3rd year coach and...

At least Gary Lyon had the integrity to admit he was shyte. Pretty disappointing, but they are professional footballers, not entertainers.

Just want to make one point MB. It appears that Eade based his game plan and approach on ours. Instead of the Doggies' normally free flowing, high scoring game, they played a dour, structured, defence-based game. I would think that making the opposition coach take you on, using your own methods is a...

Eddy is the "decoy" forward/midfielder. His job is to create space for Roo and Kosi by taking his opponent way from the contests, then make sure he is accountable by creating pressure in the front half. His role will be to make sure one of the cats rebounding defenders is negated, while ma...

Bring back the Milton the Monster avatar, please M66. Legendary!

Apparently only Tony Schebecki from SEN saw it. Said BJ grabbed the hamstring, had one more kick and went in. Thousands who were there didn't see it.

Done SFA all day. Lucky I'm my own boss or else I'd be out of a job by the end of this week! Just can't focus on anything but Saturday!

See you in the Hayden Bunton Bar pre bounce. I'm the big bloke with a goatee. Love all passionate sainters. This day will belong to us! See you there!

I'll even buy you a beer P66, seeing as we'll not be sitting far from one another. How about that old fella?!!
