We really do have pathetic supporters. I suppose every club does but do most clubs picke their captain weekly like we do. Is it Dal this week and then Chips ot BJ. Pathetic all of you. Yes you. We just finished the season in 6th place and were easily punted out by the team that finished 7th. Yes, l...

I think Rooey should be Captain, provided he can get back to 100 percent fitness. This, to me seems to be the problem, Rooey provides exceptional leadership through the WAY he plays, as we have all seen. This year, his knees, or whatever have not allowed him to do that, and the situation is compound...

Collingwoods two quick goals before half time killed the teams confidence. very fragile then Yes, and can we cut down a little on the umpire rants? I know it's frustrating, but really, the Umpires making a few dumb decisions that didn't go our way is not the difference between winning and losing. W...

Is it me, or do we always seem to have players in the wrong place? I was listening to the game on the radio when I could at work tonight and one passage of play had me bewildered. As Dawes got the ball and kicked a goal, the commentator said, "the Saints player", Baker I think was, "w...

Absolutely monstered by Cloke tonight. Worked under the ball with ease, didn't make much of an effort at ground level. He's what, 24ish now, and still has little kid skinny arms. Severe lack of talent and intelligence. Get rid of him, for christs sake, get rid of him. Or continue to persist with hi...

Here's hoping Lynch for Raph next week.

Why wait until next week.

Hang him now !

IMO, the the signs of a slump were evident early in the 2010 season. When we got towelled by both Essendon and Carlton, the weaknesses that are being talked about now started to become apparent. We often struggled to score, due to Roo being swamped, the poor kicking, the lack of mid field goalkicker...

The thing that people are also not considering is that, all teams are much more even than ever before.(Gold Coast excepted !) Apart from Essendon we have been competitive in all the games we have played. This indicates that we are not as down as some of the pessimists seem to think we are, with a 10...

Moorabbin v Seaford GT v RL Old Admin v New Admin Old Jumper v New Jumper Not everything we wish for is possible. I enjoy what we have; not despair about what we don't have. I'm just glad that in 2011 I am able to follow a team named St Kilda, that is known as the Saints, that is based in Melbourn...

You're being sarcastic, right? No. I'm not. I can remember being so angry and in such despair when St. Kilda lost to Hawthorn in 1971, that I cried like a baby. After that, with a few exceptions, it was all downhill until the early 2000's ! There HAS to be more to it than just luck or bad players. ...

The on field performances may not be anything to get exited about, but, off field there is room for optimism. I've been a St. Kilda fan for a long time, but I can't remember being so impressed by the administration as I am now, matter of fact, I can't say I have ever been impressed by a Saints admin...

You can romanticise about the good ole days in 04-05. I loved watching them as well back then. Bottom line is that team wasn't good enough to even make a GF let alone be competitive in one. In 05, the team was absolutely good enough to win a GF, but if you remove 6-8 of the starting 18 for the Prel...

I totally agree with the OP. I think some Saints fans are being over optimistic, we were not the dominant force we were in the previous 2 seasons, we got absolutely hammered a few times and barely scraped into the GF. Even though we made the GF, it wasn't a very consistent season. Our attack and ge...
