I just think it's great that the club's been in the position to give him a good run. It'll do him good for future years.

And why make a new thread about it instead of posting in the existing one?

I didn't mind the passing around either. They needed to keep themselves fresh for the big game next week!

Yeah I would have told them to get fecked. I'm not sure what's with all this Raph-bashing. Idiots.

Stewie was brilliant. I think he averaged 9 marks a game - that was when stats meant something and you had to really earn them, especially at CHF. He could mark it with straight arms, which not every player can do. His kicking was very good by the end of his career as well.

I went down to Ticketmaster at EH earlier and the girl there told me something similar. All the reserved seats sold, so get there early etc. I forgot to ask her - do the gates open at 17:30?

We should do what was done a little while back with other scalpers (for the Big Day Out of something like that) and stuff up their auctions by having multiple people bid ridiculous amounts.

I just paid $9.10 to reserve a standing ticket. What a rort.

Perhaps we should also resurrect Andre The Giant and stand him in the goalsquare.

Winmarvellous' team is miles better. Goodes must be on drugs, for that was a terrible, terrible choice of teams! A mate sent me the link to that a few days ago - he couldn't believe what an idiot Goodes must be.

Yeah I think it might have been. It was great!

The Wakelins are brothers, but they were pretty similar in talent level.

I thought Anthony Harvey was very unlucky to get dropped, then he never got another chance.

It's funny how supporters fight with each other. I didn't go on Bigfooty for about 4 years because I couldn't stand the arrogant crap opposition fans would post. This place should be a haven from all that!

That's fair enough - so do I!

It wasn't a very impressive performance, but I guess the fact that we still beat them without playing all that well is impressive in itself! I'm just glad the game's over with.

BJ is amazing these days. He wasn't too flash early in his career, but he's such an excellent player now.

Thanks mate. It was brilliant, and I'm still pumped to have seen them! I'd been waiting a long time.

Ah yeah, Dawson's an option when it comes to bringing Max in. It'd be a bit rough on him though. It's great to have such an embarrassment of riches in defence!

I live a 5 minute walk from Etihad, so I think I might attend. I don't like the idea of Monday night footy though. It's not so easy for families to get out then.

At the moment there's nobody they can really drop for him. I wonder what will happen when Max is fit though.

It's been a great season and I'm more than happy with every game so far. I have memories of us not putting sides away in previous years and having it come back and bite us on the arse at the end of the season though. Anyhoo, 'twas a very good win this evening. Your cut from the same cloth as the peo...

It is still slightly disappointing when we don't take the chance to completely obliterate teams though!

There's no reason why X shouldn't still be on our list next season. The club would be silly to get rid of him.

I blame Silvagni.

He was unlucky... I would have kept him. They must be almost certain we will get Cuz... Winmar's coming back? Yippee! Birss was unlucky. He certainly wasn't the worst player in a St Kilda jumper this year. I can think of one in particular who stuffed up every time he touched it in the Collingwood f...

You're welcome. I'm glad to be of help.

Pretty sure it was Darryl not Shane Wakelin. I have this recording on video somewhere.

Nah, check out the number in the mirror - 12.
