This will be my first melbourne Saints game i will miss this year. I have to do a lot of wheeling and dealing to get the early shift at work, in order to see friday night games. Most disappointing game of the season was the Collingwood game, a lot of effort to get the time to see it, and then the sa...

Reported as recently as todays Herald Sun, the Queensland government is insisting the new franchise team will have to play all their home games at the Gabba to 2015. There is no money to build a new stadium as all the money has been blown on the gabba redevelopment and the new titans stadium. The AF...

I used to sell seafood to Darth Vader Every saturday .

I think he is the man for the job, and I support him no matter what. He is the right man for the job, read his comments from tonights presser - he has had enough of this bullcrap and will start to revolutionise our team [goodbye hacks, hello youth and speed and Goddard,S Fisher, Gram into midfield]...

Review of the rational and the irrational

Foxtel cameras seem to be positioned in row A on the ground. Hard to work out what's happening overall. Glad i never sit on level 1 if that's the view you get.

Barry Hall has had a reasonable return.
Saints goalkicking still dire, Again too many anonymous saints.

Because he really wanted Sydney to win in 05 didn't he. :roll: "ootobea" i think his boring style of play comments were a cover. I think demetrioeu would have been quite happy that the biggest potential market finally had it's AFL winner. I can't see why clubs with 20'000 to 30'000 member...

Fair enough that's your opinion, but if you want to make a statement like that then answer my question. In fact all the people that want Lyon gone, answer the following question. IF the club sacked Ross Lyon all be it tomorrow or at seasons end. Give me a replacement? and why? I just don't want a n...

yep, they get to play hawthorn, geelong, bulldogs, collingwood and brisbane twice this year.

Geelong didn't sack Mark Thompson after 5 years or even 7 after many ups and downs and look what happened in his 8th. At St.Kilda whether it be Alves or GT-politics always wins and it is the club and supporters that continously pay a heavy toll. The reason why we must let Lyon stay for ten years, b...

Plugger, I would humbly suggest that given we went into the Collingwood game without our Captain (and CHF), our best tagger/small defender and X, that we would have been the underdog and expected to not win by most pundits. Doesn't that put us in a similar position to where NM found themeselves pri...

There is no such thing as relocation. The so called relocation would be the saints killed off and a team called Western Sydney put into the league in its place. Anyone thinking the new team is the saints is stupid. Good on the Roos for fighting "relocation" and hopefully there aren't too m...

It's ridiculous to have scheduled 2 victorian teams to play 2000kms away from their home. I wonder if any of those people who felt smug when they turned their lights off or other inconsequential "green acts" for earth hour are flying up for the game. Also holding the game up there is preve...

Mike sheahan is an "authority" on the game, and he mentioned that most of saturday's carrara crowd were travelling kangas and eagles fans. So i guess he already knows some people will travel thousands of km's to see 2 victorian teams. Despite this he said after saturdays fiasco the game sh...

Mike sheahan on tonights on the couch show, is saying the game should now be played in Melbourne, and he is not the only Afl commentator saying this. Lets face it hardly anyone will see the game up there, so why not allow 30-40,000 to see it, by playing it here. There are only 3 games in Melbourne t...

After sitting on the fence i'm putting myself in the "we're not going anywhere this year" half of the forum after that result. Tonight's game was season defining.

I found tonight to be the most disappointing loss out of the 4. Collingwood have been beaten 3 times already by average sides, they're not good. Realization the best the saints can hope for is 7th or 8th.

Frankston takes ages to get to from anywhere but.... Frankston. Telstra dome is a very convenient location for footy. Although i would like the occasional outing to the MCG now and then, will be over a 10 month gap since we last played there. I'd prefer if the club's training ground remained at moor...

Adelaide a better chance than the Bulldogs.

In todays herald sun (unless i read it wrong) it states that North had brought 3 of their 4 gold coast games back to Melbourne. They play West Coast up there this weekend, which means the saints game is being played in Melbourne ! I strongly suspect the herald sun is muddled and really meant to say,...

Whole ticketing policy a farce, particularly online booking. Plenty of St Kilda ticket only games this year to learn (play) the system but so far i have paid more than i needed to have, for each ticketed game so far this year. Seems pot luck as to what seats are on offer, usually get directed to buy...

Nottingham Forest, commonly called Notts Forest in error by many soccer fans. Forest fans get quite upset by this abbreviation mistake, where offense is never meant. Though they should be happy this week, as should fans of all fifth placed teams.

st. kilda the Notts Forest of aussie rules !

I won't even bother to watch it on TV. The name Dream Team puts me off, no clue in the name as to who or what geographical area is being represented. Just a marketing sales name.
Anyway all the best players are playing up their injuries to get out of it. with the exception of Jonathan Brown.
