Re: Will Gram get picked up? !!
It's easy to say "I told you so" but I always had the feeling Gram was a lose cannon and his recent behavior proves that ! What amazes me is the court believes he has an alcohol problem - how the flick can that happen in the current day so called professional environment ? I believed the ...

Didn't take long - Saints players on our website
Hi Sainters, Didn't take long to erase the delisted players from our official website - no Gram on Monday and no Raph on Tues night! Ruthless efficiency!! A bit sad, but that is the reality and they are no longer Saints. Quite a few vacant spots. Let's hope we fill 'em with some decent picks - alrea...

Re: Help! The offseason nightmare begins again...
Any idea who?
This is all we need.....No wonder The Age sponsors us - we give them so many news stories.
Had thought we'd left all this kind of crap behind. Need to wait for more details but very disappointing, especially with the new membership campaign just starting.
Not happy Jan....

Re: YOU'RE KIDDING YOURSELVES....
I must admit, in the lead-up to this last week of trade the majority of forumites seemed quietly confident 'The Pelican' had a few cards hidden up his sleeve, reassuring all that we'd see some action. TDL for 47. I don't know. After the loss of Goddard I was kind of expecting/hoping for something b...

Re: Welcome to the St Kilda FC Tom Hickey
I'm OK with this. Essentially, we have used pick 13 to "draft" a player who has a lot of potential (and shown some of it), is a bit more mature and ready to go and should have a number of years ahead. Of course, draft picks are always a bit hit or miss - but I reckon that this deal provide...

6 day breaks - poor Cats
Hi Sainters, AFL website says Cats have it tough with 3 6-day breaks to start next year. http://www.afl.com.au/news/newsarticle/tabid/208/newsid/150061/default.aspx How many in a row did we have? Don't recall any official acknowledgement that it was tough for us! I'm sure it had an adverse effect on...

That's a real bummer.
I've just found the old footy boots and was starting the motivational music getting ready for the game.

Re: Things looking up...
I would agree with both camps. A few wins in the close games and it would have been a different story. However, I always find that blaming the umpire doesn't really give much comfort - we should win with our own efforts and not have to rely on umpiring decisions to go our way to win. I think we have...

Re: Rhys Stanley
He's usually a good kick. What he REALLY needs to improve is his one touch overhead marking. Needs to go to Dempster school. Reckon it's a matter of time - has had a lot of missed time this season with injury so will get better for sure if all goes well. Think he's going to be a good one for the mi...

Re: Round 22 Team
I don't reckon we are "tanking" at all. I think that with the realisation that finals were almost impossible, then the decision has been made to look at 2013 and get some players injuries sorted early to enable them to be ready for preseason and to get some time into our younger players. T...

Re: Roos says Saints have Underachieved
The real question is where did he see the Saints finishing at the start of the year? just remember this last year we made the 8 with 12 wins this year we will have a minimum of 11 wins / possibly 12 and miss out injuries to good players eg chips, schneids, rhys,macca,blakey,etc.... no dawson first ...

Re: One More Loss...
I think you're right - but I think we need 5 from 6 to make it but Freo has a reasonable run home and even if we do win that many, they could keep us out. Freo has Port (away), WCE, Crows(away), Tigers (Home), North (away) and Melb (home) - 3 of those 6 should be wins and they would be a good chance...

Re: "We're close to our best" - Gwilt
I agree. Gwilty really struggled. I thought his first game back, against the Swans, wasn't too bad but he just wasn't up to the pace and pressure of the Tigers. Does he need more time at Sandy, or can you only get that pressure experience in the AFL? Will be interesting to see what choices are made ...
