This is the biggest joke of all time. The club could not possibly take him back, we need to move on and will do just fine without him.

To Batnoe: I spoke to the membership dept. a couple of weeks ago. They have capped their Social Club members numbers and he said that last season they had 6,000 Social Club Members, so not to panick. I went ahead and still filled out the forms so we would be sure of retaining our Social Club Members...

Of course Mr Gale would be concerned, especially if he had to deal with 42 players without a job and not playing the game they love. Mr D could of been giving him the heads up of what coudl happen if the Roos do not succeed. I for one hope they do just to rub MrD's nose in it, but i won't be holding...

In regard to meet and greet with the players, memberships sigs and buying Guernseys. This is a great idea, the only problem is that i rang the club to purchase 3 Guernseys for Xmas and they had just a handful left. New Guerseys won't be available till about March next year because of the ne Sponsor.

Thanks Saintbrat. 11,850 sounds alot better and i don't know where they got their numbers from, they are obviously wrong.
Ialways purchase our membership before xmas. The option for 12 months instalment suited us just fine, this would be a good option for most right on xmas.

Our memebership stands at 10,000 at the moment. We are the second lowest at the moment with Nth Melbourne at 8,000.
Doggies have about 15,000, hawks 16,000, Demons at about 11,500, essendon around 17,000 Collingwood and Geelong i can't remember. This was in todays Herald Sun.

Well nick, your contibutions to the club have been exceptional, we need to find out more. Ishall get to the bottom of this as i never let a chance go by.

Thanks Nick. I will ring the club and check and if you are right i will be writting a letter to Mr Westaway. There needs to be something, 10 years is a great effort for a family of 5.

Can anyone tell us if we get something special for 10 years membership with the club.

We are due for long service leave in 2008. Just wondering if there is anything special coming our way for 10 years service.

Young Nathan was approached by the powers to be and taken under their wing, fully knowing that he was never really interested in the first place. He obviously has alot of issues to deal with and for him to be under the pump is unfair. Let him go and do what he likes, let him live the life he wants .

The big G train is back with pick no. 57

The other half wants to know where each player went , can someone put that on the website or is ther a website to the afl that i can go . thatnks cheers stairway.

Thanks Enrico, i new it was some place with a Mt in it. Iguess we will know who we have picked up in the draft by Sat. Arvo.

One of my workmates was asking me where Harvey lives and i couldn't tell them, can someone please enlighten me.
Is the draft tis Saturday going to be televised live on tv?

I would luv to have him back and the media will luv him to, he is just so different ya just don't know what he is going to give you on match day. As far as wanting to come back to the Saints, he has every right. I remember not so long ago a so called player went around a number of clubs and intervie...

I remember back when Ken Judge wa coaching this team. He went to the board with a problem, nothing came from it and he was sacked at the end of the season. 5 to 6 years have passed and the problem has taken hold on not only one player, there are now a few who are on shakey ground. I believe we all h...

I for one believe it's a great article and it shows that it can happen to anyone. Great courage and determination by the both on and off the field.

Iagree with most comments especially in blaming the WCE Football Club.There has been a number of discressions and they continued to cover up and pretend that everything was okay. I'd just like to remind all you folks that our Bakes got hung out to dry and was penalised for 7 weeks and Cousins does t...

I posted a reply on the above post about the AFL saying that they could strip West Coast of their picks if they got in trouble again.

This is a sad end for Ben Cousins. Drug squad following him most of the day, chickie babe with him and two girls as well. He looked very awkward when arrested and didn't look comfortable when walking to the police car.No shirt on and looking tough. Gosh this guy is in trouble i just hope he doesn't ...

Sorry looks like i have missed the boat again. Should of known you guys would of been all over it. I just found it as i was browsing through Optus net news.

He has decided to call it quits. There are a number of people that they are looking at to replce him, such as Cook from Geelong, Jackson from Essendon and Fong from WA. Hope there hasn't been an earlier thread on this. I for one are not really disappointed and will be looking forward to a new face f...

If they allow this free trade to happen i will not follow AFL anymore.
I could see it right now as players stack a team so they can win a premiership. Border line cheating that is.

The report also said that his wife and children were on a farm at the time of his death. Many people had apparently found out before she did. Lucky for a friend who let her know.
Sounds very very sad, just maybe his whole world was falling apart and he just lost all control of himself.
