Re: Stanley
I don't see a future for him... It's not due to lack of effort, I am sure he trains as hard as anyone and applies himself.. He is said to be the strongest player at the club. Sure genetics help his cause, but in a room full of AFL athletes, to be the strongest you would have to apply yourself irres...

Stanley
He must surely be the classic example of a physically gifted athlete who couldn't realize his potential because of a general lack of interest or heart or both. He may wake up one day (probably in 10 years) and think to himself. "If only I had given it a crack, how good could I have been?" ...

Re: Rich club, poor club
I saw the word "retrospect" in a comment. You didn't need hindsight to know that what a lot of what St Kilda FC was doing was madness. There is a simple reality here. The Hawks ran a business that specialised in playing football. A succesful business will make strategic business decisions...

Re: Jimmy and John and 'that' day...
Infamous day, no hiding from the fact it was a shameful act! Greening was seriously injured by an intentional behind the play king hit..... No excuses... O'Dea has to live with the fact he ruined the career of a spectacular footballer... And really, that's what he's best remembered for.... Not sure...

Re: Richardson seems like the right man
He reminds me of Allan Jenes. A little bit nervous in front of the camera. A leader in battle. A man for all seasons. A leader for our club. A man for all seasons should be changed to a man for many seasons. I might be wrong (and I'll know in 2.5 seconds on this forum) but Watters, Richardson and H...

Re: Billy Longer
I still cant fathom exactly how we ended up getting Billy. Appears like a massive coup. Well we traded McEvoy to Hawthorn who had previously indicated to Longer that they would take him from those nasty Lions. When Hawthorn secured McEvoy, Longer and the Saints both realised that we were a match ma...

Re: John Ralph
I wonder what sort of objective tests they used to assess him? If they used self report type psychometric tests then he might have fooled them. If he has poor insight and lacks self awareness, which appears, in hindsight, to be the case, then it's a case of rubbish in, rubbish out. If they fell for...

I would have thought that Grant happily put his name to any opinions that he had. Still it's a good excuse to hammer home any prejudices that we have. And in that case I blame Laidley!

No more blaming the players. Exhausting and taxing game plan, try kicking "easy" goals after implementing that. No such thing as easy goals when you're stuffed. We are very hard on our players. Agree.. BTW is that you on twitter ? Agree. Isn't that the problem with Nick Riewoldt? Runs 2km...

Re: Scotty on the couch tonight
The Coach is the leader. He's doing a good job and he's got the strength to shoulder our losses.
And he's selling the message: "We want to go out on the field and win every game we play"
It's all about winning ultimately even if sometimes you don't get the 4 points from a game.
