Re: Whatever it takes to get a reply to my post
I'm 72 and began my Saint Supporting "career" in the late 50's early sixties with the likes of Eric Guy and Neil Roberts and that ilk, down at the Junction. It was a family thing. I saw and was part of the rise through the sixties, the '66 GF and all of that came with that successful perio...

Re: If Eddie's proposal is ratified by the AFL then I think.....
Because once you give away the NAME of the club, and relocate to another state, and once your supporter base is sourced from another state, then the CLUB no longer exists! The Swans can call themselves "The Bloods" for as long as they like, Brisbane can wear the Fitzroy jumper as often as...

Re: Sandringham v Bombers
Drop Long and Butler and bring in Windhager and Steele for more midfield grunt and consider Highmore for a backline player ...... DMac comes in for Clark if he is battling fitness What's this dropping Long business? He probably played with the most commitment and passion of any St Kilda player on F...

Re: The Midfield Won Us The Game....Obviously
Doubt if the club will be the end of me Vortex, I've managed to survived to age 82 so far......funny thing is that I don't get emotionally exposed while the team is behind, as I know to never expect a win, but when they started looking a threat to win like they did at 3/4 time I started to become r...

Re: Prepare for meltdown!!!!
"Seb is still a viable option when needed, unlike Kent who is a liability in 80% of his games."
My word your generous with your evaluation of Kents liability level!
I see him more as a 99.9% liability.

Re: 5 emerging young guns to watch.
Comfortable with what i have seen of Brynes, Connolly and Bytel, want to see something from Allisson. Early draft pick ( for us anyway) and whether didn't adapt to AFL standard, suffered after missed year with Covid or victim of the rubbish pre season of 2021 which no one wants to admit. Either way...

Re: Blue baggers v saints AFLW.
Oh really!
That's a period that many older St Kilda supporters have mixed memories. Fond recollections of the characters of the time out on the terraces of Moorabbin, not so much for the football mediocrity played by the teams of that period!

Re: ASHES 21/22
Jonathan Trott, who scored 3,835 runs in 52 Tests, agreed on BT Sport, saying red-ball cricket is not prioritised in England and it has been "pushed to the side"." It's just not red ball cricket, it's cricket as a sport in the UK. Here in Aus [and India], we have cricket as our natio...

Re: Concerning Recent St Kilda Stories
To go a little off topic... I just wonder, do you lot think we would have been better off sticking with one government bank - at state level (the old State Savings Bank) and national (the old Comm Bank). Do you think fees and any number overt and covert insults that the public now has to deal with ...

Re: SSP train with
Thanks Mike . I think the comments of Brett, and the structure of the list, confirm that Josh Battle is now seen solely as a defender, rather than a floater . Perhaps this might be the way it turns out for Josh, but I think he may turn out to be a goal scoring CHB, as he alway's seems to be very ke...

Re: Concerning Recent St Kilda Stories
I can't stand that Paul guy on Sky with his putrid support of a lying sexist dropkick former Potus. Sick making in fact but for anyone to suggest that the ABC gives a centralist unbiased view of current affairs or anything for that matter has their head stuck up their arse. Q & A is simply the ...

It's time for smith to step up He was outstanding in England two years ago but since then has been ordinary. Averaging 38 with one century and a couple of fifties.

Re: ASHES 21/22
I think the night sessions are overplayed by the media, trying to ramp the game up. The Aussies ripped thru India last year in the blazing sun. Last Ashes Series, Anderson had the ball on a string and looping around everywhere in the night sessions in Adelaide. Thats precisely why he and Broad were...

The Day/Night Tests will give England a bit of a leg up, as they produce extra swing through the night air in evening session. Anderson ripped through Australia last time around and will now have the opportunity to do it all again in both Adelaide and Hobart. On balance though, Starc and now Green, ...
