Yep, like CHB for Kosi, has he played there before and dominated?

Does he have grounds to sue the AFL for that bulshit decision, forcing him to miss 5 weeks and thus not be as physically fit as the rest of the AFL....Which led to serious injury?????

you cant be serious

Sadly, I think he is.

Maguire - Breaks in his foot. Season. Baker - Just forgot but 10 weeks+. YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME! I hope that now we have a few out injured, Ross and his match committee take some risks in the short term and play the kids. Allen has been in form in the 2's and could take Maguires spot and Gea...

Bit sick and tired of hearing how good our list is.... in reality our bottom eight that get a run most weekends have to be among the worst in the league..... Rix - not even going there. Maguire - just check out his Dream Team price. L. Fisher - lacks pace. A. Fiora - still can't believe he ducked hi...

Went to the game last night, have never been SO BORED at a football game. No taking the opposition on, no daring, no risk...The players were jacked off big time after the game, and quite rightly so. As has been pointed out, the real risk is that we will lose members because people want to get some v...

yep get rid of the tall timber and put Geary in. He is in my DT too! Give Kosi or Goose a rest......

If Roo is out Rix FF Huge man, big tank...... The team that won the NAB cup is very similar to this You forgot "Can't play" Seriously, they should play the kids - sick of B graders getting a run ahead of the kids who need experience in the big league. McEvoy instead of Rix Geary instead o...

Maxie pulled Lloyd's pants down last night and took advantage of him in a most intrusive manner..... loved it!

Reckon what should happen is that the next time one of our blokes goes down with a 3-4 week injury, they should grace the field and whack someone to the value of 3-4 weeks.

That way, they may influence the game in the Saints favor whilst they are going to miss the next few weeks regardless.

Yep, cracker post..... makes you realise when you add it all up how SANITISED not just footy is, but life as well.

All of this political correctness and legalised theft makes me sick

We should play the kids ahead of our struggling fringe, finish in the bottom two and get some decent picks. No more of this finishing 8-9th - that is Richmondesque! :wink: Even if it takes Rix or one of the many other GUGS that we possess to fake a long term injury to promote from the rookie list, l...

its the coach's crap gameplan, its the coash who decides not to man up, its the coach who works out the teams structure the coach SHOULD tell them to play man-on-man, no more loose player in defense the gameplan is at the root of most of our problems What utter garbage... So when the cats players b...

Yeah Fanta Pants has silenced players that are superior to Dal, that's for sure. To Dal's credit, he did put his body in and busted his butt - that's what you have to do when faced with a difficult opponent who is both tagging and running off you....

Out: C. Jones - clearly can't use it unfortunately

The big problem is Geelong hit their targets the Saints don't. Far too many skill errors although the intensity was good. Jones, Riewoldt and Milne should have kicked those goals. Maguire was OK in his 1st game. Spot on there, their skill level is superior to ours, end of story. Our kicking has bee...

Really looking forward to watching it on the box today - we are not going to get any more injury free than this (touches wood)... with only Michael missing from our best 22, we have a very strong line up.. this is our chance to show the football world that we are FAIR DINKUM. We will know exactly wh...

I hope you guys are right and I am wrong, but I think we will flood and it will be a long and painful game, with not necessarily a win at the end of it. This is our game plan/style now. Insanity given the foward line we have, alas. Have to admit, I have a feeling that Ross is trying to emulate the ...

Sam Cranage.

Shanahan. (remember Jarman?). With respect though, Jamie wasn't a bad player, but I just have shocking memories from that day......... and now I don't like him!

I think you need to take a good, hard look in the mirror when you fill in your time by trawling through opposition forums and place quotes from that on our own forum.

Do you work? Do you have kids? Do you have other interests in life?

We nearly have a full strength side, it would be quite embarrassing to lose to them really.... they have a midfield now, I rate Carrazzo, Stevens, Judd, Scotland - not too bad in there - but aside from Fev, they have nothing else to threaten us with - their rucks are crap, their backline is leaky......

Would have to say that Adam Simpson from the Kangas is underrated even though he is captain. Gets a ton of it but is unobtrusive. Also, some players from cruddy clubs like Melbourne generally are under rated, like Daniel Ward, Matthew Whelan etc... As was stated previously, you Victorians also somet...

Interesting to hear a lot of you favor Lenny over Roo - if Lenny was appointed captain, I guess we would hear all the Riewoldt supporters stating their disagreement..... funny how we prefer to state what we don't agree with more than what we agree with. The truth is we have many leaders in our club ...

Interesting to hear everyone having a crack at CJ's disposal - and yes, quite a few times he turned it over but then often chased his own stuff up and regained the pill - at other times he DID dispose of the ball accurately - more positives than negatives IMO - far, far better than others who have a...

Has anyone thought of the left field solution if Maxie goes down again? With our forward line full of options now that we should have decent rucks, it would be an option for FG to head back to his old hunting ground and play FB for a while - specially if Goose is struggling and Miles etc have not ye...

Here is the perfect solution for you benegal - If the optimism of fellow saints supporters is getting you down you could always try this old trick. Get down on all fours, put your head under ur torso and then, with all your effort, slowly slide ur head up ur arse. This may prove uncomfortable at fi...
