Grammy article (150 games)

"REBOUNDING St Kilda defender Jason Gram revealed today how he begged to be allowed to play on with the club.

Gram admitted the self doubts as he struggled to establish himself in the Saints' team early in his career.

The 28-year-old, who celebrates his 150th AFL game against Brisbane on Saturday, asked for more time in a meeting with then coach Grant Thomas at the end of the 2005 season.

"I was four years in the system and had played nine games. I pretty much begged for a one year contract,'' Gram said before training at Seaford today...."

Hope he feels better, and will be able to play his milestone game.

Well Done Grammy. You have been good value more often than not. Almost an NS medalist too.

Fair effort. Almost another shocker by GT wanting to delist him just a year before the almost delisting of Milne!

Interesting article. Thanks for posting it Doc.

Congraualtions Grammy on reaching 150 games. You've given us some great seasons and enjoyment. :D
  • "Gram is driven by the urge to play in a premiership team before his career ends."
Something round the mark of that last quarter intensity v the Tuggers would go a long, long way to achieving that end for all your fellow St Kilda supporters Grammy. You still have the ability to tip the scales our way... :idea:

Come on Grammy, you can do it...!


It's Dave, man. Will you open up? I got the stuff with me! -------Who?

Yeah, Dave. ---------------------------------------------------------Dave's not here.

Should have been a Norm Smith medalist, more judges voted for him. They should award it retrospectively


Gehrig emerged from scans yesterday saying he was "as sweet as a bun"

Wow !!!!!

I thought he'd played much more than 150 .



I suppose with all the abuse he cops on this forum he's one of those players who polarises the fans !
anyway

Lets hope he has a BOG performance and helps us to a 10 goal win !
