When Fitroy was disbanded in the late 90s, it was the first time I was ever aware that the people who run the AFL were cannibals who would eat their own and kill a foundation cub. As a little kid, I had a VFL sleeping bag, and it had every club's logo on it. That was how I learned all the teams. Fit...

He told the players "See ya next year", just forgot to add "When I coach Freo against you."

I'll tell you the honest truth. When I first heard it I was shocked and hungry for info. Then I had a seizure, my 10th in two weeks. And it all fell back into place... it's only football. There are bigger things in life, regardless of who is coach. But we love the club, not the coach... coaches chan...

In person, he said to me years ago that he turned up for training and they told him he would be playing for the Hawks on the weekend. He was shattered. (When he spoke to me) he laughed and said he was probably the only player who had trained with two teams in one week. And then he made a career of s...

You never know, yobos can have a go at anyone they think is weaker than them (eg older people). So I worry about him anywhere.

But he'll be there!

No one answered my question.
Are these people on Saintsational?
It would help me get a sense of who they are, and their perspectives when they post.

Last time, we did not try third man up very often at all. It really surprised me, and I thought to myself 'Well, Ross doesn't want to telegraph that strategy for the finals yet'. You can bet we'll do it a lot this game, however.

I like the scarves and the hats. Being a full member, and a cheersquad member, but living overseas means that I got to one game this year. The win against Brisbane in Brisbane (yay!) But when I get the stuff in the mail, it's really exciting. I wear my scarf lots (we can have 3-6 months of snow) and...

I think it would be great if you could pay an extra say $5-10 and get a hand signed card from your favourite player saying thanks for being with the Saints.

I don't like criticizing North, myself, because they are in such a bad financial position. It reminds me of when we were in the "Save Our Saints" era, worried about the future of our club. The media do overuse the "Shinboner spirit" thing... and North played like crap against a m...

The tv commentators speculated that he was complaining about Goddard.
Whatever it was, he clearly said it happened "in the 27th minute", if you've got a recording of the show, that might help.

Here is what I would LOVE Collingwood plays WCE and loses. Collingwood plays Carlton and loses. Collingwood is out in Week 2. That would go a long way to making it a good finals series! And Collingwood lose to their arch rival! Ha! BUT... also... We beat Sydney Hawthorn beat Geelong, and then we bea...

Yeah, I don't know who he is playing on, but he hasn't been kicking much... his long kicks are often important to us, but tonight... it feels like he is handballing 80% of the time. Not looked at the stats, but just saying what it feels like, watching the game.
