If Thomas had stayed he was getting rid of Milne, oh dear what a FAIR DINKUM absolute clueless buffoon we had running the joint.
Players like Milne are the soul of the club you don't just show them the door.
Milne is a champion, a gun and one of the best small forwards in the history of the game.
Yet Thomas stated categorically that had he not been sacked Milne's papers were stamped, he was out the door and would no longer have been at the club!
What a FAIR DINKUM imbecile!
Had Thomas not been given the flick, Milne would have played his very last game for St Kilda in 2006!
Thankfully this ignoramus was exited out and Milne exited back in!
To all the nuffies, nongs, ninnies, numbskulls numbnuts and clueless cretins who still think the sun shines out of Thomas's arse, ( yes these vacuous ones still exist believe it or not ) pull your heads out of your own and get a FAIR DINKUM CLUE!
Milne is magic!

Exactly, I still like GT because at the end of the day he is a saints man through and through and loves the club, but Ross Lyon has got a hell of a lot more out of all of these players including Milney than GT ever could. Carn the mighty bloody sainters! Great win tonight!felixleo wrote:Milne today isn't the one thomas had.
When Harvey played his first game in 1988, I was a 12yo wearing short pants and struggling with my readin', writin' and 'rithmetic in grade eight. Now, I'm a father of three and a retired AFL player. And he's still going. Amazing! - Michael Voss

The Milne under GT is most definitely not the same player as the Milne under Lyon.
Lyon improved him by 50%. Gave him a defensive side.
Made him a valueable TEAM player. An aspect of his game that was seriously lacking under Thomas.

One of my most replayed moments from 2010 was when milney kicked his third in ten minutes on josh hunt in the qualifying final. The build up - the roar when he marked - and then the deafening roar when he played on and dribbled it through from an acute angle. I just love cranking the telly right up and replaying that moment. The roar when it goes through is unbelievable.

GT could have been playing mind games with Milne. Putting him under pressure to think about his game and attitude.
I agree Milne has changed since the reign of GT...he has developed.
Change is part of human nature.
It is OUR choice whether we change for the better or worse.
Think of crims who get out of jail and develop into decent people with jobs and families, and the other crims who just get worse.
