''I still get really excited, and I've got the '66 thing up on the wall in a frame … You look at it and think: one day, we want to achieve that.''- Arryn Siposs
Few other teams wouldve dealt the way we have with the drama's we've had on and off field this year.
> Lovett: was almost a mistake within a month of trading for him: drunk in fitzroy st and then the rape allegations.
> Riewoldt missing for 12 weeks. Arguably the most valuable player to any one team in the comp.
> Milney and Joeys investigation coming up again.
> Baker disgracefully wiped from the game for 9 weeks.
Very proud of the boys - and excited by the fact nothing but the best is accepted, as shown by Ross at 3 quarter time.

Yep...not to mention the sex with school girl allegations and our past association with Brian Waldron.
It has been a busy year but so far our boys have managed to keep inside their supposed 'bubble' and not let it affect their performances.
Couldnt agree more. It is a good achievement to get to where we are now, considering so many wrote us off as not even being able to make the 8 without Roo. Long way to go I agree but good work so far.
I also liked when Ross showed the emotion like he did, in my opinion it means a lot and made the boys take notice because he doesnt seem to act that way normally. I like his calm nature but good to know he can step it up when need be.
Considering it will be only the second time in our history that we have finished top 4 in 3 or more consecutive seasons, it is quite an achievement.
This group having been put together after the horrific years at the turn of the century have been busy doing what not a lot of St Kilda teams have done.
Consecutive wins, record winning margins against clubs, record winning streaks against clubs, consecutive finals series.
Obviously there is only one measure for ultimate success but it must be said that this group has been doing all they can to give themselves a shot at.
There has been a steely resolve about them this year, let's hope it takes them where only Saints side has gone before, it will be a well deserved victory if it does.
Life is very short and there's no time for fussing and fighting my friends.

Agree 100% They cannot play any better, we are only playing at 70% efficiency and intensity at the moment, if we lift to 95% we shall cream both teams, 100% and the flag is in the bag.
