And we have been screaming out for a genuine blockbuster opportunity to prove that we can fill the G on the day as much as the others.

I hope it moves, Saints and Cats fill it to at least 70.000 and the AFL books a permanent fixture there between the two clubs every year.

Re: Why Princes Park when .....

When the junction oval can redeveloped at the same cost with half the local council and resident’s issue. The ground is a previous VFL ground, it has a fantastic surface. Easy public transport access. It can double up as a viable cricket venue, which it is already used for. It is in a sporting pr...

B.T.W Geelong currently get $650 000 for a crowd at Kardinia Park equivalent to what we get for a home Freo game. Good luck to them for having the foresight in upgrading their ground. I just wish our club had've seen this coming. Unfortunately we would really have needed to have put it in motion ba...

Isnt that like saying the GPS in your car is useless because the car has a roof ?
I think the concrete roof might be a little thicker than your car roof
Concrete? Are you talking about the metal roof?

If I remember correctly Plympton handed the job over to Rod. It was a smooth transition with Rod being mentored by him. In regards to the membership I am pretty sure that we did not have 27,000 members in 1998, I think that is Plympton being generous with the truth. As far as Rod being the most fina...

What's wrong with this jumper?: http://www.bomberblitz.com/~rmered/images/North-3.gif North used that as an alternate strip during their recent premiership years. It has stripes, it has a Kangaroo. It's easily identified as a North jumper. It has some history. It doesn't clash with Collingwood. Pro...

What's wrong with the social club? The worn rippled carpet, the stale beer smell, the dodgy circa 1970's curtains and the substandard projector with even worse sound....good times. :wink:

I am very anti tattoos, but if the saints won a flag. I wonder .perhaps just 3 little dots in 3 colours?

My understanding is that we were going to own the new Social Club on the South Road/Linton Street corner. At Seaford we own nothing.

Re: Anticipation when you're winning

For me, when you're doing so well, next week just cannot come quick enough. Just keep on bringing em on. It makes it really bad because every week that goes by you want another win which will get us closer to the finals... on the other side there is the dread that the inevitable loss and associated...

Waverley is a quality site now, when Hawthorn moved there it wasn't (in fact i believe the area was a s*** hole in the rain belt). Moving to the Frankston area increases the club footprint as the BaySide Club, it stretches the clubs area, from the St Kilda to the peninsula. Why will Seaford never b...
