Absolute disgraceful umpiring all night. Couldn't quite believe what I was seeing at times...

Scum led by scum.

Agree - absolutely nothing in it, jsut one of those things and Fish unfortunately came off second best.

But what a comeback.

Absolutely brilliant stuff, full of guts, charcter and determination. Had everything thrown at them and still ran out with it in that manner - superb.

One of the proudest nights as a Saints fan.

Great stuff.

Whilst I don't necessarily agree there has been a "conspiracy", it is hard to argue against the fact that there has been some very stranger decisions against St Kilda when it comes to disgressions at the tribunal. Let's not forget the infamous "love tap" to the stomach by Fraser ...

CJ is EASILY the best tagger in the league now - without a doubt IMO.

Great link-man down back - has actually become very important in the abscence of Fisher. Seems to always get to the contest to provide an outlet, and his disposal is good.

Could he be the next cult figure????

Not up to it I don't reckon. Not trying to bag the bloke after only his first game, but he just doesn't seem to possess anything (other than height) to give you confidence that he will get better. Maybe I'll be proven wrong - I hope so, but I don't think so. Would much prefer seeing a young fella (i...

He was absolutely superb tonight - a leader in every sense of the word, and he just seems to be getting better. Great game all round - was this possibly the best team game the boys have ever played? From start to finish I thought it was one of the best performances this bunch of blokes have put toge...

Couldn't agree more Kate - bunch of absolute tossers so far up their own bums it's sickening.

Give me Footy Classified any day of the week...even if I have to put up with GT!

Yep - back on tonight. Should be 'interesting' for want of a better word - GT has already come out in the media recently to bag Lyon over the handling of Ball and Lovett. Expect him to put himself in the headlines again with some outlandish statement like he always does - tosser! Good to have the sh...

Absolutely brilliant - brought a tear to my eye.

THAT VIDEO is what being a Sainter is all about - superb. I remember listening to the radio and when Dal kicked that goal, I went 'Ken Bruce'.

Awesome.

GO SAINTS!!!

But is he ever going to do it - and how long do we persist?

I have only skimmed thourhg most of the discussion on this thread, but there definitely seems to be a stroong for or against Kosi split amongst the St Kilda supporter base in general. I try to remain calm and not post things or here too much in the heat of the moment, and I like to think I don't jus...

I'm on the side of those who want to celebrate the high points of the season, despite the devasting ultimate loss. 2009 was a season where we were all fortunate enough to witness a St Kilda side at the peak of it's powers for the majority of the year, dominating games in a manner rarely seen in the ...

Roo and Lenny.

Can't split them. Absolute guns who bleed for the club and are superstars.

Personally I don't think the goalsquare is the right place for Roo either - maybe in the twilight of his career perhaps, when he can use his brain and strength to outplay his opponent. At the moment, the ability he has in spades and far superior to any other forward in the league is his ability to r...

"If Schneider had've kicked straight we'd be bowing to him"....hmmmm, yeah, we'd have a premiership Cup too that WE DON"T HAVE. He didn't kick straight, that was the problem. I'm not here to hang players or try and justify the loss - the reason for it was simple, we didn't kick straig...

Well said.

The correct balance in my opinion is somewhere between the two ideas on this topic. Yes, I'm sure there isn't a St Kilda supporter in the land who isn't proud of the guys yesterday, their application, commitment and effort was brilliant - it would be fair to say they did everything right execpt get ...

Brilliant all day. Epitomised the spirit of the club, as he has done all his career.

Gotta love the guy.

Just a quick observation, one that annoyed me at the game and was backed up again by the statistics in this mornings paper. Much had been made prior to the GF of the club's recent ability to draft or trade for 'quality' players from other clubs, and the manner in which RL had managed to forge them t...

Spot on. Whilst it was our kicking for goal that cost us the game, those three decisions were appalling. How do you see an incident right in front of you, put your whistle to your mouth when the infringement is complete and then not blow it? What has changed to cause you to stop? Incredible. The Abl...

I agree - it's seems simple to me, and I have been a Yapper fan for a long time but the fact of the matter is in Finals he is a major disappointment. Will get seriously looked at by Ross I would think as to whether he is what they want going forward - remembering we need to IMPROVE to get back to a ...

Working nightshift, believe it or not. Home at 6am for 3 hours kip then off to the big game. Holy crap, I'm so excited!!!

GO YOU SAINTERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
