i would personally like to see raph given an extended contract and able to prove his abilities with the club without the continued criticism he receives on this forum. currently in positive talks for a new three year deal, i would be glad to see raph extended well past 2010 as he has plenty to offer...

Raph is in talks for a new 3 year deal, so he might be around a little while yet.

head coach: poochy 1 2 3 4 and 5 - at least he has a view on things

assistants:

ruck coach: b4e - rix rox rux!
forward line coach: hotdogs
midfield coach: aaron fiora
defender coach: trent bartlett
media spokesperson: crannypete
fitness coach: casey donvaen

1. are you looking forward to playing for the gc?

2. why is your onfield leadership non existent?

3. do you think rl is a dud also and should be replaced mid season?

soft

lack of direction

poor gameplan

players not supporting each other

my avatar says it all where the saints are right now under rl. bring back gt to the club.

why is rl still harping on about the sydney days. why are our players not able to speak to the media. cause our club has not given specific media training to the clubs leaders, its a joke. how could an afl club that is wanting to enhance its media profile continue to back away from the spotlight. ge...

alright so whos in contention rix firoa raph mini now that x is out for another 4 weeks, we really need to recall some experience. i would like to rix, raph and fiora given a chance at the expense of geary, armitage and ferg. sometimes experience over young blood can bring you ahead in leaps and bou...

rumour on this forum by the doc is that banger may be on the sidelines.

who would get the nod to come in.

who are the emergencies?

would the club consider a match day fine to bring raph into consideration for selection. just the type of player we need should banger be ruled out.

poor example- stevos

so chaps not much talk on this topic anymore. how do we rate our ruck stocks, do we miss rix, do we have promising kids, how is king and gardnier progressing now where does kosi stand, has he underperformed alright gentlemen lets get talking, barks4ever im a long time fan of yours, i wanna see you c...

hi fellow sainters,

will be bringing my dad along sunday and am wanting to sit with some fellow sainters. what suggestions do you have chaps?

i dont get to the dome as much as i would like with dads ill health now, but im looking to make it a good afternoon.

if only highlights were like that every week under lyon. - stevos

disagree poor idea saintspremiers. we need to get specialist coaches with previous experience, not untried players straight out the game.

we will never be saintspremiers if we continue to appoint coaches with minimal experience. enough said.

my father and i will be at the dome cheering us on. come on saints fans lets fill the dome and ride it home

good day all, just letting you know i am back. was disapointed at the effort on sunday, although as my great father would once say "you can only make it, what you wanna make it" we were outplayed by a better side on the day. cards on the table we will probably finish 10 to 12 now, not good...

while all the talk is around a big crowd and big event, i just hope we cheer loud and proud. too many times in big in recent meomory our crowd noise has disapointed, come on saints fans we will have 65%+ of stadium support, lets make it sound like 40,000 and not 15,000 that goes for our cheer squad ...

we are not fifth how dare say that. if many of you could remember the good old victoria park darks, supporters pissing on opposition, threatening to be killing walking back to my car, finding you dont have a car anymore, its all apart of the collingwood folk law.

ive never had the nous to come and say hi cause i usually attend games with my ill father. however one week in future id like to drop by and say hi and put some names to faces as much as I would love to be apart of the shout.

thanks for the warm welcomes both saintbrat and eastern. im glad we are able to get along and express valid opinions about something we both hold close to our hearts. ive read this site for more than 2 years now and deciding to join cause firstly it is well managed, and people are now expressing vie...

we can only improve, 5th to date and feels like we are struggling. think of the positives we can only improve. me and some fellow delegates we discussing this over lunch, and the consensus was onwards and upwards the saints will play finals footy in 2008.

i cant say it is the welcome i expected to a forum site of the club i support so dearly. 45 years i have supported this great club, i love st kilda but that doesn't give you the right to be so horrible to me. a long time reader and discusser of this site, i have some valid views i would like to sha...

if anyone has a one of our 1972 match day jumpers, i would like to present one of these to my great father who is 90 in june. he is lucky to have made it this far, and 1972 was the year in which he has the fondest memories of the club before suffering a bypass. if anyone can help out i am willing to...

You were and will be targeted again not because you are new but the fact that what you were saying was complete utter bull crap, that you made up. it was not made up, it was from a source i cant reveal. as a long time supporter and follower of the club i have established a lot of friendships off th...

5 changes im expecting
