Special mention from Gillon for Roo and his achievements

[saintspremiers]

Inappropriate to make a current Essendon captain a life membe this year. That should've happened next year.

[kosifantutti]

What's Jack Steven got to do with this?

[stevie]

Every time they do this to get players over the '300' line I wonder why their goals in these other 'games' aren't counted to their official career tally.

Why? He never cheated. If it was Watson, fair enough. But bj? All that crap happened before he got near the place

[magnifisaint]

I was also looking for Jack in this thread

Because he's still playing, for an opposition team of which he's captain, why are we (an opposition club) paying him honours pre-season when he's got bigger fish to fry? Not an odd honour to bestow, but odd timing by the club.

Exactly. I'm not disputing his life membership only the timing. It can wait one year when his team is officially "clean"

I read the article and they are an AFL life member.

We announce our life members at our AGM.

So why the angst? St.Kilda didn't honour him, the AFL did

They won't be officially clean. Penalties will have been completed by those that were found guilty. Nothing to do with BJ.

No angst, just thought it was weird...however, I overlooked that this is an AFL award, not a club award. That makes more sense.

No worries and I would agree it would be strange for the Saints to be giving life memberships to an opposing captain.

Spider came back to the AGM to accept his life membership.

[saintbrat]

St Kilda honoured BJ as life member the Best and fairest the year he left as he had reached the 200 games

[BigMart]

BJ was a Great Saint

Don't lose sight of that
