Good move

[bergsone]

Sounds about right imo,may even get another one if he has a good year,and the body holds up

[st.byron]

Excellent.

[SemperFidelis]

Great. He really finished off the season well after such a long time out.

I for one will be very glad that he is able to get those 2 extra games needed to run through the banner on his 200th for our club.

[Con Gorozidis]

Showed hes still bloody good in that last month. The bloke loves an intercept mark. I think we were always going to only keep 2/3 of Gwilt Dempster and Fisher.

We simply couldnt keep them all on on the books and Sam's August meant it was the end for Gwilty.

[MCG-Unit]

Great news if true, really didn't want to lose him.....

[tony74]

Quality bloke, quality team mate. For some reason Chips is often thought as a loose cannon but I can assure you he is a quality bloke. If you are going tonight and get the chance ask any player. Ask Eli in particular.

[bigballs]

So happy that he's playing at least one more year. They could have very easily delisted him given his age and the horror year he had with injuries, so hopefully he can repay the faith in keeping him on the books......players of his class don't come around that often so they're worth hanging on to for as long as they can.

Good News for chips. Good News for the club/fans !!

[supersaints]

Good news we need one old head in the backline

[Bluthy]

I'll sign off on that. With Gwilt gone and god knows if Gilbert will get back in any meaningful fashion we need some experienced coverage back there.

[Wayne42]

Right

[skeptic]

Have never been Sam's biggest fan but this was a really good move

He finished the year strongly, body looks like holding up, we need him in his position.

Nice work Saints

[magnifisaint]

Always been a gun and loves the Saints. He's the beat player we have in the backline. Hopefully stays right for the whole year.

How could you not be a big fan?

Coming back, he is probably still one of the best zone-off defenders in the game. Furthermore, he can play key if need be.

There is a reason that every opponent he take always takes him to the square. Every opposition coach wants him out of the game....

[SemperFidelis]

And, if I may say, a fair reward for our newest life member ...

Always thought he was a bit weak as KPP and have heard some unsavory things from sources RE off-field stuff that isn't worth sharing.

That being said, I certainly don't dislike the guy and am glad he's still with us

Fair call. He probably is a tool but in the end he is a great back for us.

So who are you are fan of?

Tom Ledger?


You seem to want to slag off everyone except players that the club has let go.

lol - I think you'll find I slag the same few players over and over again rather than everyone

if you have more specific questions, I'd be happy to oblige

[SainterK]

Hope he finishes his career off in the way he deserves.

Haven't stopped worrying about him, but wish him well.

[SaintWodonga]

Sam is the best StKilda player from SA ever! In my opinion.
