My Dad used to take me to Hawthorn games occasionally including to Glenferrie Oval when I was really young but I never really could get into them (I don't know why). My brother in law barracked for St Kilda and, as we lived close by in Highett at the time, I used to go with him to all the home games...

Are we the shut down specialists of ourselves?

Quarter Length 20 minutes The last 5-6 minutes of each quarter (of the 20 minutes playing time) or approx 8-12 minutes of each quarter (count ...

Freo would also have to lose next week at home to the Hawks for us to jump above them.

Great Win, but...

PLEASE don't get me wrong. Anytime you beat another AFL team by more than 10 goals is a great win, BUT Some of our disposals and decision making was pretty ordinary. I just watched a replay of the game and. fair dinkum, some of the kicking and handpassing from Gilbert, Gram, Gamble, Clarke and a few...

What about the last two paragraphs of the article? That's what I'm talking about :D "The skipper is the missing piece in the St Kilda jigsaw puzzle that has steadily taken shape during the past eight games (six wins). If Riewoldt can recapture his form of 2006-09 any time soon, the Saints not o...

Is Tommy Walsh contracted for next year?

If not, will he want to hang around for another year to MAYBE get a game only if everyone else falls over?

I just hope we can win enough games so we don't have to rely on someone else losing in the last round to make it. IMO I reckon we can finish at least 7th. Once we make the finals it will be a whole new ball game. There will then be a few worried teams playing against us (the September Specialists :)...

Didn't some Indian cricketers get 3 years for betting or telling someone they were to bowl a no-ball on the third delivery in the second over or something like that? They didn't throw the match but they "compromised" the match and themselves for financial gain.

Throw the book at the scum.

Is Jack Steven now Ineligible to win the Rising Star?

I just heard someone on SEN say that he now cannot win it because of the melee fine.

Bummer! :cry:

I think his form has been outstanding and he should definitely be in the mix to win it.

Is it just me, or has Jack's improvement coincided with Armo's slump in form? As Steven has gotten better by the week, Armo seems to have gone backwards. I think you're right. It looks like Jack has taken Armos spot and flourished. There's no reason why they all can't rotate through the midfield th...

YES, he kicked some goals today but unless he gets it delivered to him on a platter, he ain't worth crap. His around the ground skills are terrible and most probably worst than Gram's (and that's saying something).

It would be good to actually SMASH a side for once though. Our percentage is pretty crap and, as there are a few teams that also have a draw and better percentage we need to get our skates on and kick a decent score. At one stage there on Sunday it looked like it might have been one of those nights ...
