Too many long posts around at the moment - BUT i really enjoyed reading this one! Thx for sharing your thoughts and giving me a few laughs too. Laughing because I get where you are coming from!

Quote from 'Skeptic' (Stuffed up when I did my post)......
"The gamble for him is that Freo is the last club he will eer coach IMO. If he doesn't deliver at Freo, he's finished - if he does, he'll never leave[/quote]"

With the money he is on - won't matter if he never coaches again!

Could understand if he was only contracted til end of 2011 but he wasn't! He was still contracted to end of 2012, so end of season (2011) discussion was quite a realistic business proposal I think!

Well said - first thing I did when I heard the news was jump onto Saintsational. Great to read other people feeling the same way as you and alternatively to read something you disagree with but that makes you perhaps see something in a different light!

I really don't need to say anymore apart from the fact that Nettlefold is a bumbling idiot and Westaway has the passion and presence of a cabbage. Practically thanked Lyon for leaving us in a heap and then some. We are in for a long long haul folks ...... On the other hand you could argue that they...

Funny thing is I do have expectations. They should beat Sydney, they should make a 50 50 contest with most of the top 4. We need some luck, we need some guts but why not. Tattslotto gives some of the poorest percentage chances you'll find but everyone has a go because if the balls fall right on the...

So excited to be in finals again!!
GO SAINTERS!!!!

Not happy about the new Finals ticketing system As of 9am tomorrow, you can go in with your 1 x Saints membership and buy 3 extra tickets FOR ANYONE!!. What happened to Monday being exclusive access to Members of competing Clubs??? If I miss out on Premium L1 seating tomorrow because loads of non-m...

The footy panel (ch 9) all laughed at the fact that these incidents were even being discussed! I hope they are right!
Last time they laughed at something like that on The Game Plan, the incident they scoffed at, cost Roo dearly. The MRP doesn't always see things in the same way as everyone else!

Love Joey but he frustrates me. personally I think he is over rated, just my opinion. Interesting how different people see things differently! Firstly I love Joey and the way he plays but didn't think he had a great game last night. In contrast, my son came home from the game and said, "How go...

Raph has always been a confidence player! Love seeing him stringing some great games together.

Members reserved seating area - should be just that - A MEMBERS' AREA. We often have random seats sold to opposition supporters in big games and a drunken group of opposition supporters who stands at the back of our bay. We purchase reserved seating for a variety of reasons related to wok and sport...

Don't remember much bc only young but remember of course the disappointment.
Also great memories of the courage of Barry Lawrence playing with only one good leg!

Hate that sort of arrogance - certainly made me see red!
Poor sportsmanship - it's that simple.
Not a fan of Malthouse - but at the time thought even Malthouse wouldn't like that sort of display.
Karma will catch him one day!

unfortunately all of this is enough to put one off from going to the game just not prepared to be subjected (or my wife) to such low behaviour from feral p*ssheads certainly not for the kids i don't think alcohol helps and think it needs to be band at games i know it's a minority blah blah but the ...

My husband who is a Pies supporter (not a member). He is however a Saints member, has a reserved seat so we can go to the footy (Saints of course) together and watches the Saints every week. This is his choice so our family can watch footy together. Anyway, last night he chose to sit up in Gen Admis...

I think Sam's only fault is his disposal. With regards the decision making. That problem is often caused by the game plan. Backline forces a turn over, someone comes racing out of a pack, under pressure and looks up the field and there is NO ONE in front of them. That means they have to look sideway...

Yes definitely....

and of course Lenny too!!!

Our CS is lame. Freo's mob made more noise than our shambolic bunch. This is a serious question, and not an attempt to denigrate. Why do our cheer squad sound so quiet at games? I believe Dooley when he states they are trying as hard as they can to chant and cheer, but the truth is that in Bay 38 (...

yes I found it a wee bit annoying :x It reminded me of that damned "Who let the dogs out" nonesense that footscrap used to play on the screen after a goal, and remember that "doggy doogy doggy-woof woof woof!" crap? The nice thing is that they can blow horns, whistles ring cowbe...

Joey just named as captain for tonight!

Also feel very sad for the fans. Have many friends who love the Dees just like I love the Saints and I know that they will be devastated.
On the otherhand, I am very glad that it wasn't us on the receiving end of a belting like that!
