as a person of a certain vintage I have a few friends who like saints supporters have suffered long enough I dreaded in 97 that we were going to play them in the gf, and stress the friendships, but for the leigh colbert mark we should have, anyway thats another story I hope they win and win easily t...

that would be fine I reckon, at 25 he has 6 or 7 years left as a quality player

for the millionth time I will ask the question , how does dustin fletcher get so highly rated

always tries to play on the third best forward and when he does get the best inevitably gets creamed

totally over rated

don't even start me on his tribunal record

talk of him returning to victoria

surely would be on the top of the shopping list, only 25yo, is very fit, can run , can mark, can tap and can kick goals

he said on the abc after the game that the girl who got the jumper had held up a banner for him for years I think it is one of the best things I have seen on afl ground, and summed him up perfectly Will miss his unique brilliance, i am sure he played many many games with painkillers, stretching back...

DELIST Milne He's also not good with the ball and he can't tackle to save himself. do you actually watch the games did you not see his possible match saving tackle in the centre of the ground on saturday and then the kick to fraser his goal assists this year have been excellent as I keep saying on ...

I meant over the entire season Terry; 4-7 from the first 11 is poor. agreed no worries I guess the forum has been alot of doom and gloom this last week (with some justification) the reality of the last 11 weeks is that we have really only just been beaten in all 3 loses, as disappointing as they ha...

St DAC wrote:On form? Probably not; but I'd still take it!

thats my point, our form is not too bad

if we get in we will go in with 7w 1d and 3l from last 11

I think that would stack up pretty well and signify that we are actually in form

firstly as someone said before if we win more games than 8 other teams then of course we deserve to be there I think it was mentioned during the call on friday night, that since the mid season break, if there was a ladder just on those games we would be coming third, that probably changed with frida...

thank goodness someone else mentioned paragraphs, my eyes went all watery wading through that lot. mate I think you need to have a bex and a good lie down. if you want to talk conspiracy, look no further than the draw where easily the most favoured teams are your own victorian carl, coll and ess. go...

All this stuff starts to get a bit repetitive. Thommo and M Clarke are going anyway. From the way he played on Friday, Voss should probably go too. We will also probably be waving goodbye to Raymond and probably at least two out of Sweeney, Gwilt, Brooks, Ferguson and McQualter. We probably won't b...

not sure how his fitness is going and of course whether he will play on in '08 so here's an idea for a bet each way regardless of fitness name harvey as an emergency for this week. if adelaide win on friday night (god forbid), then bring Harvey in on saturday just in case it is to be his final game ...

5. nick .......... words continue to fail
4 lenny ...... is now easily the hardest saint
3 attard till injured
2 milne , brilliant disposal, was always thinking
1 fiora

i felt was the loss of 43. he was killing fletcher up till then and we were on top in the midfield after that we were playing with a limited midfield but also with 3 and 14 struggling our interchange was stuffed you can't win when your rotations go this also meant limited relief for 27 who was just ...

so fletcher who has been up 14 times or something keeps getting 1 week

jeez don't know what games you have been watching, geelong should be about even money to win the flag they have the best defence in the comp the best midfield , maybe multiple goal kickers great rucks huge depth and enough hard bodies to win finals (mooney, scarlett, chapman, ling, g ablett) i hope ...

not many stats but could have had three goals and i thought was very important as the third forward option

his courage also helped keep the ball in the fifty several times

is an important hard player for the next few weeks

lenny, fraser and fiora top three

fiora broke the game open several times and players like him will be the diff b/w us playing late in sept and not

those players ranked from 10-16 need to play out of their skins for six more games

fqf

it was a soft effort by hall but definitely not reportable

free kick at best, result should have been a ball up probably

my problem with saturday's last quarter was that really at no stage did we actually try and win the bloody thing. #9 spent half the quarter off the ground and we played with a 5 man forward line with #44 effectively our full forward ffs. HELLO coaches we need to win games to make the finals, % does ...

he was smashed early in the game and never looked the same again thereafter

sorry mod not good enough on another post he says x the soab won't be dropped

now that in itself is not racist but taken with the other comments shows a tendency that if you don't do something this may go further
