that's "minus infinity"
in case anyone's confused over the symbol

is it possible to have minus infinity ..0 is 0..mind you I failed 6th grade maths.

There are such things as negative numbers. They are real.

I just took it to the extreme.

Yesterday I went to see Avengers Infinity War and I had a brilliant time watching it. It was 10 years in the making. The end end of a journey started with Iron Man, a movie that come out the year before our grand final loss to Geelong. I know that comparing Hollywood to St Kilda is a stretch, but in...

Obviously we need 2 new forums. One called 'cynical pricks' and the other called 'its ok cause we lost'. My kids have suffered my obsession with St.Kilda all their lives, as most of us did. I missed the 60's and have no recollection of the early 70's, but I admired my dad for his loyalty and commit...

Nicky had the misfortune to be managed by that pony-tailed idiot Peter Jess who persuaded him he should be paid a quarter of our salary cap (way more than Plugger). In the hype after the famous Vic Park win it went to his head. Jess demanded a ridulous pay increase that no club could accommodate so...

Bumping in hope people can enjoy a better St Klida

So, it would be around 25 years since Cuz disappeared for a few days in the clubs Tooheys Red promo car and forgot to tell anyone!!!!! Funny man Cuz, Legend!!!!! Do you mean after that game at Victoria Park? My recollection is that he wanted to walk away after that game. For me, death threats would...

You're right Skeptic.

Hall was an upstanding citizen.

When he accidentally king hit and knocked out Staker he got a very severe 7 weeks.

When Nicky got racially reamed by Brereton for years and finally cracked he got a lenient 10.

But fork me what a comeback in round 7 '91.

He was a star! But what gets my goat is that the AFL have used Winmar and his historic stand to help promote Indigenous round. Eff that, they have used a defining moment in Australian sporting history to promote themselves and their social conscious bull. Why can't they do the right thing and give t...

Scenes that may possibly have played out this week regarding Blake Acres Blake fills out the usual forms at the start of the week and lets medical staff and coaches know that he feels pretty much his usual self. Team meetings occur Wednesday and Blake is told by Richo that he'll be doing his usual ...

How can Neil Elvis Winmar not be in the AFL hall of fame? First indigenous player to play over 200 games. Then finished with over 250 games. 200 games is life membership for the AFL. That milestone alone should be enough for hall of fame entry. But no. Not enough for Nicky. His Victoria Park stand i...

After spending some time contemplating this video I think people in high places should watch this. I know the game has changed and moved on, but the skills in this are unbelievable. The skills under pressure and the pace are brilliant. And this is the last quarter in an era without a squillion inter...

I miss Peter McKenna. And his blatantly full forward biased commentary. I mean check this out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xack_Ripn_w You can't show me something like that! That was my favourite St Kilda team ever!!!! Lockett, Winmar, Harvey, Loewe, Burke, Grant, McAdam, Devenport, Mick Bloody...

Bloody great work Gilbo.

Congratulations.

Should be an inspiration to kids showing you don't have to have sublime skills to forge a career in the AFL. Heart and hard work can lead to great things.

I am usually too outraged to make a sensible suggestion after a loss.

And after the Good Friday game it would not have been safe to put me in front of a camera.

I was definitely speaking in tongues myself.

The right outcome in the aftermath. But I do wonder, if it was one of the big Melbourne clubs would the AFL have upheld the rules at the time and then changed them so it wouldn’t happen again??? Just like they did with the blackout in 1996. The AFL enforced a rule and then changed it as soon as the...

It's based on current form - he is 15th for effective disposals and 20th in disposal efficicency. He aint playing well. he had one disposal from 3 possessions last game, so was hardly showing any kind of form before the injury. He averages less clearances than the likes of Bruce. Behind everyone th...

Have you ever made or eaten mash potato without milk or cream or butter and salt? It does the job still... fills you up, soaks up gravy, pads out meat Etc. ...it’s a hell of a lot better than starving, but it’s as bland as all f&@k!! = Newnes! But it does the job. I think that was your point.

Every club has a good 'ol scapegoat or two. Seems like its now either Gilbo or Geary or Newnes....even noticed some Saints fans are having an unfair crack at Billings and Gresham now too. So true, but us Saints fans have almost made a sport of it :D It feels like after every loss there is a thread ...

With a few others here, I don’t get the Newnes hate. He is more often good than bad but, I concede, his errors can be obvious. I probably could understand better if his teammates around him were miles better and could land a Sherrin on a dime 9 times out of 10. But I guess he is the next in line for...

That is all true and the performance shows us that many demonstrated a real maturity last week. Here's hoping it continues! While many on here and at games have been negative (one reason people are not turning up) I think Saturday really turned people around. Perhaps a new optimism was born. One OL...

Nailed it. What that means on the footy field is you don’t force the team to play extra numbers at the contest because Dangerwood is so good, but you allow the boys to go one on one and back them for the challenge. IF you don’t, you are basically saying to the players they are not good enough, and ...

The OP is a good point. However if it wasn't for three moments of sheer brilliance in the 3rd quarter from Deledio, Greene and Shiel, all almost impossible to defend, we would have won and done so decisively. Some of Delidio's work was just beautiful to watch in the most awful way. Reminded me of A...
