Luke Ball???

Remind me.. Who have the filth lost???

A player who was struggling to get a game is hardly a star.
That would have to be one of the biggest calls ever. Still he's gone so you can slam him now :shock:


Hold your ground :shock:

Earlier this morn I read somewhere that Ray was happy to take a salary cut but can't seem to find the article now
Anyone confirm or was I still asleep?

No doubt Luke Ball was once a star of the St.Kilda footy club, but the 2009 version of Luke Ball was a shadow of the footballer he once was. He was not a star for St.Kilda in his final couple of seasons with us, nor was he in his first season at Collingwood. It was great to see him fit and playing good footy again in 2011, but he certainly wasn't a star in 2009.

Geelong lost King due to salary cap. Ablett leaving definitely helped their situation. Also lost Mumford as couldn't match his salary ala Tommy Walsh.

Unsure how Hawthorn have kept their stars, then added to it, I think they'll be ripe for the picking when their younger stars like Suckling, Smith and Shiels hit their straps and demand some good coin.

So while the media are focussing on us, we aren't alone and we are suffering for our own 'relative' success.
See.. there's a right way and a wrong way..
Hawthorn had to let Kennedy and McGlynn go.
Sorry don't mean to be mean but..

Your arguments are getting worse...

NEITHER of them were in their premiership side, sooo....
While I understand your need to pick on everything I post, I was referring to your comment " think they'll be ripe for the picking when their younger stars like Suckling, Smith and Shiels hit their straps and demand some good coin." They lost McGlynn and Kennedy in that exact situation.
