Of course no one is happy with the result, especially seeing that it was apparently a “home” final.
But what comes first, the chicken or egg?
It’s actually frightening to think as to how little finals experience even the senior players have been exposed to.

The Cordy v Howard argument
This is starting to remind me a bit of the Hickey v Longer argument, as in who is the less mediocre. Howard, a bit like Longer is arguably better in a physical one-on-one contest (but like Longer, also a bit overstated in that department by some of the fans), but his disposal is a liability. Also, h...

Re: SCREW YOU, YOU LOSERS!!!
SydneySainter is a flog, a tool, a troll. Someone refusing to attend Sydney games unless a win is guaranteed. A wanker, who would not even meet, in Sydney, to discuss St Kilda. A fraud! I never said guaranteed, but at least a win being remotely plausible. After witnessing 7 straight drubbings in a ...

Re: Mass exodus
I have never wavered in my support of the Saints, but my patience will be tested if Silvagni starts rummaging through the bins at Princess Park and recruits a bunch of not good enough players, like he did at Carlton when recruiting GWS rejects. I don’t know how much say Silvagni had with recruiting...

Re: is Clark too slow?
Our preference is to resign him - no doubt Although Ross would be concerned about his lack of running power - speed and endurance But I definitely think he wants a fresh start, as he did last season! Sometimes for a change of luck, players need a change of scenery Didn’t he get his nose out of join...

Stupid act by Caminiti. He’s a hot head and will need to learn discipline. Or, maybe that’s how he plays his best footy and we need to accept he’ll have a poor tribunal record as a consequence. However, the act itself while stupid isn’t warranted of a week suspension. They should challenge, even tho...

Re: Did Our Backline Look Better W/O Howard?
Thought we missed Doogs tbh. I know he makes some bonehead decisions with ball in hand but as a pure 1v1 defender he's rarely beaten one-out against the monster forwards and is super important for our structure allowing Battle to play looser / 3rd man up and Wilkie to take the less powerful/more mo...

Lethers is one of the most overrated football administrators in the game (I’m sure Tony will tell us what a huge loss he would be). The Hannerbury & Hill trades being his great claim to fame before inheriting a CEO gig from Matt “Fake It ‘Till You Make It” Finnis says it all. Hawthorn are welcom...

Re: Changing coaches has been a failure, IMHFO.
Agreed. I think this year has proven that Ratts wasn’t necessarily the problem, but the list in general (11 years of ham-fisted recruiting to thank for that). Where the club really made their epic fail moves was first extending Ratts’ contract for a further two years on the back of some early wins....
