Gee, the Saints have been kicking a few off-field goals lately. Mate of mine (in the AFL industry) reckons we are building nicely off-field. Have scored a real coup in snaring Drain and we now have the most Professional fitness / conditioning team I can ever recall. What happened to the turmoil Car...

He seems to now say things in public that are diametrically opposed to what he did? Maybe he thinks he was wrong. Maybe if he had his time again, he'd do things differently. Maybe nobody gives a s*** because he has nothing to do with our club anymore. Yes, why do people talk about this guy...he lef...

We have improved it at the bottom end, which builds our depth, increases pressure for spots in the side and allows us to better cover ...

Nothing to do with the politics, just that I am led to believe Lyon had other ideas about who he wanted to do Ken's job and was disappointed when he found out Ken was staying. Lyon has since made the relationship work well. Lyon strikes me as the sort of flexible guy who would find a way to work wi...

Peake (ex-cats) &Lyon-master traders

With Ross Lyon's connections getting Schneider and Dempster, and our new recruiting guy John Peake being ex-cats, with Archie Fraser and Tony Trout Elsahug doing their magic behind the scenes, we have had , IMO, the best trade week in club's history...

Who paid out Blight's contract The club did, not Rod Who contributed money towards the three overseas training camps outside of club money ] The club , and Wallace Cameron gave $100000 twice for 2 trips. Not Rod. Just because he is going donesn't mean this bull%^&$ should become legend.
