Saintsational Fan Forum - A passionate community of St Kilda Football Club fans discussing news, history, players, trade rumours, results, AFL stats and more.
No doubt all of these features were part of his name being raised when St Kilda was initially after compensation for Ball over the summer of 2009.
That St Kilda ultimately refused to try to persuade Wellingham to shift clubs remains one of the silliest decisions in modern footballing times.
How accurate is this?
Keep reading...at least the Herald Sun is beginning to realise the myth that they have been publishing for the last two years, that he was actually offered is factually incorrect.
Wellingham was kept in the picture all the way through negotiations and made it clear if he was to be traded, then North Melbourne would be the only club on his radar.
He had worked with Brad Scott when he was midfield coach at the Magpies and the pair had built up a very good relationship. Similar to what he has with current coach Mick Malthouse.

Widely debated on here, but generally accepted that we were not offered Wellingham...the entire scenario involved North, Bulldogs, picks 21 or 26, a Collingwood player (nominally Wellingham, but other names came up) and Luke Ball. Bit too complicated for your average Sleepy Hollow fan, and makes for a less sensational headline.

Okay, I'll fix the article for Ando:
That North Melbourne ultimately refused to take Wellingham in excange for pick 25, which they later used on Aaron Black, remains one of the silliest decisions in modern footballing times.
There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say, "Enough is enough." For me, that time is now. I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in <redacted>. Over the past three years, I have been subjected to a <redacted>investigation followed by <redacted> witch hunt. The toll this has taken on my family, and my work for <redacted>and on me leads me to where I am today – finished with this nonsense. (Oops just got a spontaneous errection <unredacted>)
Yup, or Jethro Tull...I always get them confused. All those drugs in the 60's/70's seem to have effected his journalism.
That was Ian.
Could stand on one leg and play flute.
A required skill in a 70's folk rock band.
Lance or James??

...when it is incorrect...and is old news...and is repeated several times. He's a tool.
Incorrect, i assume you have insider knowledge?
Like I said before, why not:
