Bally- "what have I done!?"

jonesy · Post: # 903094Post **jonesy** » Sat 10 Apr 2010 12:58am

It was written all over his face after the game....it must of hit home.

He walked out on us to enter a side full of spineless players,officials that behave worse than the Tennant Creek league in outback NT. A side that wilted under pressure.

He walked out on a club that personified the best of the human spirit tonight. A team that against all odds triumphed,they worked together,willed themselves across the line. And he walked out on them...

When he hugged Lenny at the end I reckon it must of crossed his mind to ask whther he can come back. Wouldn't you if you were in his shoes?

We thought exactly the same!He looks a very unhappy young man .

Stillwaiting · Sat 10 Apr 2010 1:06am

the look on his face was priceless, I thought he was going to cry. But thats what you get for going to the dark side

Filth supporters kept telling us how they got him for nothing... I kept telling them that they still paid too much.

Oh well, Luke.. you make you bed and you lie in it.

Dal_Santos_Gal · Sat 10 Apr 2010 1:09am

I know some might say its cruel but I couldn't stop smiling and laughing every time the camera was on him.

He walked out, now he gets what he deserves !!! I really hope he is enjoying his Collingwood jumper tonight.

as much as i thought that when i saw it after the game, on retrospect i think he was just devastated at a loss that they thought they should have won.

as much as we would have loved luke to stay. he was smart enough to see the writing on the wall..all it took was one young midfielder to step up (armitage, steven, geary) to push him out for good. for his own career, probly made the right decision to go.

but i still love giving it to him. he left us. hes one of them. and tonight they lost. im glad he missed his shots tonight..if he'd got them it would have fired the pies right up.

Feel for Bally, I can understand if he wanted to go to get more game time, but sometimes you've got to do the team thing and just play your role.

You were loved by the fans and the club, no one hates him, everyone just gets upset/disappointed when you leave your mates/club/friends, with all the passion/support etc.

It was his decision, so I'll just leave it at that.

I loved it when a bloke near me yelled out "how does the future feel Luke?"

pretty apt i thought...

Seaford_Saint · Sat 10 Apr 2010 1:28am

good, balanced post Lefty... well done.

Sainternist · Sat 10 Apr 2010 1:31am

who cares how he feels! he turned his back on the club. F*** HIM!

I agree, he is a turncoat, its about our club and not about Luke Ball.
He plays for a Collingwood jumper now and he lost tonight, so he can go and cry in his beer along with the rest of his new team mates and feral supporters.

I couldn't care less, maybe I am heartless, but honestly as the saying goes winners are grinners and the rest can go and get ......................... !!!!!

not at all! it was he whose heart wasn't with the st.kilda football club, so he can take that tag. his black (and white) heart now lies with c*llingw**d.

Bally was upset for one reason. The pies lost and to his credit he was their second best player. Good result alround. We win and he does well.

SainterK · Post: # 903239Post **SainterK** » Sat 10 Apr 2010 1:48am

Agree with Plugger on this one, it's over now...

bigred · Post: # 903292Post **bigred** » Sat 10 Apr 2010 2:08am

I am rather sick of Luke Ball.

Just another collingwood player now.

Just saw the replay of the game after getting home from the game. His face says it all....and I feel no sympathy AT ALL..

I hope Linen House gave him a nice sheet set because he can finish making his bed and then sleep in it.

Beej · Post: # 903314Post **Beej** » Sat 10 Apr 2010 2:24am

I'm amazed that he could stay friends with our boys after some of the things that went on, particularly Milney who had a fair dinkum crack at him a few times.

And such a strange feeling it would be for him to hear the St Kilda song at the end of a game while being on the losing side.

Enrico_Misso · Sat 10 Apr 2010 2:31am

Didn't think he had much impact.
The bloke can't kick for nuts.
We are certainly better off without him.
He chose to leave.
Chasing money.
Well good riddance to him.

Hope the rest of his career amounts to nothing!

markinUSA · Post: # 903332Post **markinUSA** » Sat 10 Apr 2010 2:36am

I was lip reading what he said to Lenny... I am almost certain he said "I miss you", which was quite amazing to me if true.

He could have been referring to his short passing last year.

Saint4Eva · Post: # 903336Post **Saint4Eva** » Sat 10 Apr 2010 2:38am

at one stage after the match it looked like someone said something to him that really hit home. i couldnt see who but there was quite a shocked look on his face

Griggsy · Post: # 903438Post **Griggsy** » Sat 10 Apr 2010 6:17am

I would have supported him through thick and thin at the saints, I'm not the only one. But he made a decision, albeit a questionable from our point of view and this is what he gets. Little pity for someone who turns his back on our club. No we are not the most successful club, but we have a stack of pride in our colours. I wonder how much pride Luke is feeling at the Collingwood right now.

SinCitySaint · Sat 10 Apr 2010 10:03am

He doesn't need pride he has Eddie's wallet to keep him warm.

He played well but same as he was last year he is just is not damaging when he has the ball.

Thinline · Post: # 903534Post **Thinline** » Sat 10 Apr 2010 10:06am

As with us, he was alright. Pass.

Really, though. The guy can't kick for sh-t.

What did Milney say? Surely someone was on the boundary at the time? Would love to hear...

satchmo · Post: # 903570Post **satchmo** » Sat 10 Apr 2010 10:35am

Starting to feel sorry for him now.
