We also have a 50% record against Adelaide, Brisbane and Fitzroy.

Amazing to see that we had 59 inside 50s today but only scored 8 goals. On top of that, we only had 4 different goal kickers. Riewoldt, Koschitzke, Ray & McQualter. It was our lowest score for the year by 15 points. Infact it was our lowest losing score since Round 11, 2007, when we lost to Nort...

He rolled his ankle on Sunday. Is not playing any football this weekend. Unlucky because he probably would have come in.

No Armitage. You'd think his best chance to break into the side is gone.

Interesting.

Steven King, Leigh Montagna right to play Bruce Matthews | August 04, 2009 03:08pm STEVEN King and Leigh Montagna look set to shrug injury doubts and play for St Kilda against Hawthorn in Launceston on Saturday. Saints coach Ross Lyon said King had avoided serious damage to the shoulder that he disl...

Good point on our run from defence. Interesting to note that the two games Gilbert has missed has seen the two highest scores kicked against us.

In 2008 only 4 clubs listed their membership totals as couting only 11 game, 17 game and junior memberships (in other words, genuine memberships). St.Kilda, Carlton, North Melbourne and Brisbane.

I wonder if it's the same in 2009?

Further to that, St.Kilda have not lost in Round 16 since Koschitzke was drafted to the club.

Albeit not a foundation club, North Melbourne didn't win one until 1975.

Raph's first half was as bad as I've seen from a St.Kilda player in a long time. He was on -30 supercoach points at haltime. His second half seemed like he was told exactly that at half time. Very good endevour, had 9 contested possies and scored 129 supercoach points. However, the errors in the fir...

I don't agree with Raph's inclusion in our current 22, however I certainly believe he is capable of some great football, and I don't for one second think Raph, or any St.Kilda player, isn't giving their all when they run out in the red, white and black. While I can understand some supporters frustra...

If Max is fit Raph shouldn't play this week.

Not sure if this has been discussed elsewhere, but is it a concern that we have won only 5 of our last 12 quarters? Despite winning all three games against Carlton, Richmond and Geelong, we've not managed to win more than two quarters of the match. This may highlight how when we've won quarters we'v...

Get used to it, 6 of our next 9 are on Sundays. And our first final will probably be a Sunday also.

Be nice to play on a Saturday arvo more than three times a year.

I haven't seen this posted anywhere else, so congratualtions to Jason Blake on 150 games.

Blake is an integral part of the best back six in the competition and deservedly so.

We did it once in local footy, our ruckman had a teammate put his hands on his shoulders and boost himself up like you would for a hanger so he could punch the ball when the other team had a shot after the half time siren. He touched the ball and a point was paid, no free kick or anything else happe...

The dogs are overrated. Big time. Yes they took it right up to Geelong. But that's something West Coast, Fremantle and Richmond have also managed to do. The dogs have beaten one of the top nine sides. Adelaide. They have not played Hawthorn, Essendon, Collingwood or Brisbane. They were comfortably b...

Is this fair dinkum, or just Beno88's opinion?

Just opinion. Sorry, I should have made that a little clearer.

I don't agree with much there. Raph Clarke has now had several shots at cementing himself in the best 22, I thought he had finally done it at the end of last year. However his form this year has been a decent step backwards. He is an important part of our depth, but he is not in our best 25, let alo...

About 1990 to 1994 by memory. I could be wrong though.

Prior to that it was similar but the saint was just standing with the ball.
