rest assured if they were missing fiora - im sure the'd be a few people on here that would give up their day to help fiona pack his locker, and personally drive him to punt road.



id even host a afterparty as a celebration.

NO THANKS!!

Dud, absolute dud, don't even know why we'd entertain the thought of going after him when we already have Montagna, Xavier, Geary, Jones who can all play the same position just as well if not far better...

I disagree. I think he could be quite a good pick up if the price was right. He is very quick and gets stacks of the ball. Much better than Fiona and IMO X.

Your comparing Jones and Ray?

They are completely different players

So who wins the AFL's cream puff award.

Nominees are
Aaron Fiora
Nick Dal Santo
Farren Ray


What a midfield they would make if the other team forgot to turn up.

I heard the Weagles and Freo were already his preference, earlier this week.

If he were to come to St,kilda would people respect him or bag him out like they have done with Fiora?

I actually think he's pretty maligned. The question would be what would you have to give up to get him. I think a pick around the 25-30 mark would be worth a go.

He'd be bagged of course. What else would you expect from the keyboard heroes on this site.

Would love to see the Fiora critics put on a jumper and see how long they'd last in an AFL game.

So Fiora hasn't worked out. Big deal. Why do some get nasty on him?

Pathetic... people... pathetic!


The lid is off after Round 2! Enjoy the journey, coz you just don't know where we'll end up. Live for today and seize the moment.

Gee, a #4 pick who WILL develop... vs a 24 YO who can't kick?

Or someone who racks 40 in the VFL, but does SFA in the seniors...

or another who doesn't even get on the park 80% of the time?

Hmmm... that's a hard one. Then again, what would I know?

A player being written off by supporters... like RL was, like Dempster was, like King was, like Raph was... I bow to your collective wisdom. :roll:

Because he doesn't deliver and most StKilda supporters have had a gutful of ineptitude......

The real pathetic people are the ones who keep recruiting these duds,or more importantly,extend their contracts......
