Matt "Bundy" Rendell gave our club good and loyal service. I wish him a full and speedy recovery.

My answer? MUTE the *merchants!

*"Merchant Banker"...rhymes with..................

of all the commentaries I opt for ABC Grandstand.

One can be unhappy with the loss, but take comfort/consolation from the PERFORMANCE

Spot on

I’m afraid some on here are looking for quartz amongst the gold

OR mouse turds in the strawberry jam, Colleague?

We are the 'real deal' for commitment and game plan. Just need some more talent that can execute under pressure.

Maybe need some of our injured players back too?

I remember well sitting in my old seat (between aisles 18-19 level one) for a game between the Saints and Essenbum. This was during the period following the Peptides scandal when they were prevented from playing most of their 1st choice squad. Jimmy Gwilt was playing for the bummers (after having be...

I saw the footage of the lad being led off... horrendous stuff I think the Saints tried to do the right thing by Paddy in delisting him. Whoever at Sydney thought it was a good idea to recruit him should be horsewhipped.

Our depth is real my friends

good question Colleague! EXCELLENT (ahem) "problem" for our club to have, I'd respectfully suggest.

I'm looking forward to this game with no expectations other than it being a CRACKING game of football! Enjoy the GAME colleagues, let the result be what it will be!

Go Saints!
(To Hell with the rest!)

very generous gesture Colleague! COYB!

That was a fair-minded and astute analysis of the side's performances thus far. I must confess that when I saw the title of the thread I feared the worse. Thank you for sharing this with us Saynta.

Wonderful story Jigster, a lot of us have had similar experiences. Like your good mate Les I too copped a lot of flak over the years, especially in the early 1970s when I was living and working in the Eastern Highlands town of Goroka in Papua New Guinea. Every Friday morning during the season all o...

Oh Jigging One you have made my eyes leak. That is a beautiful story - yes how could you not carry on the passion for your mate Les. Awwww sorry if it upset you Loris, it wasn't meant to. I reckon one of the greatest rewards I've had from hitching my star to the the Saints has been the amount of wa...

Lovely story jiggster No finer way to induct yourself to an afl club…possibly a bit biased but I reckon you have chosen well :) I’m guessing you immigrated from Scotland 😉 :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr that would be "the bonny bonny banks of loch Mersey" Colleague!! :...

I came to Melbourne in 1990. Like most immigrants to this fine city, I viewed "footy" with a blend of curiosity and confusion! :lol: I'd truly never seen a code, and a culture connected with it, quite so unique. I watched televised matches without understanding the first thing about the g...

Greetings from the Humble Pie Cafe colleagues. I believe I posted something along the lines of "I wouldn't have Lyon within a bulls roar of my club" when the possibility was mooted of Lyon returning to the Saints. I certainly resented how he left us and was letting this influence my thinki...

That the teams who play and lose to the Saints have a cognitive dissonace through the media that they are underperforming rather than they were outplayed and smashed by the Saints . We are on fire no doubt . Really good point…wonder when the media take us seriously..David King said on SEN this morn...

What's your local?

The Jester's Arms??

Relax guys. If we lose this one, or the next one, so be it. We're working on something so much bigger than wins and losses. This is about creating a competitive culture, right to the last man on the list. Fact is, if we have to dig deep into our list to try players out, so be it. They all have to b...

Kane Cornes? David King? Caroline Wilson? Robbo? Barrett? Clutchinson? Connolly? Etc. etc. etc etc etc?? Totally irrelevant to my interest in/enjoyment of Australian Rules Football.

Probably themselves, Colleague? They're looking very VERY omnibus at the minute mate!

Yep, things are looking pretty (ahem) "omnibus" here at the Ventura depot Loris!
