Re: Paul Roos whacks Watters

I thought people could have an opinion? I don't get the whole PC mentality. If people choose to leave the club I love to play/coach elsewhere................ they are now the enemy. If people disrespect the club or anyone involved in the club ........... they are the enemy. It is the same with ever...

Re: Paul Roos whacks Watters

Agree with most of the posts above. No one here needs convincing that the environments at Geelong and St Kilda have been significantly different the last 2 years, for many reasons. No one needs convincing that Roos attachment to Ross disqualifies him from comment, just as if Robert Harvey was commen...

Re: Freo

Who gives a monkey's about Freo? Good luck to Ross, good luck to Zac, I hope that we will beat them and be better. The rest is pettiness.

Hmm, very good Saintbrat. Very good indeed. By the way, just for the record for the poster criticizing Plugger66 on page 2, I don't know why you say he's the most blocked user on here, I think he talks a lot more sense than many. He may not pull his punches, (my first ever post was called "f---...

Please don't tell me you guys block people? The different opinions, insights and disagreements is what makes this sight interesting. It's part of life and it is normal.

Awww, thanks you guys! Just when I thought I'd get smashed for another long self-obsessed blather.

Re: How much of Melbourne do the Saints cover-

I agree with those saying people aren't restricted by their post code. There are even some contrary people who deliberately do NOT support the local team cos all the bogans immediately around them do. People like me. When I picked my team in '95 I was a newbie in Melbourne, living in Collingwood off...

Re: Should our heritage be used to sell online betting?

Geelong have publicly distanced themselves from all other AFL clubs by stating they will support betting limits. http://www.geelongadvertiser.com.au/article/2011/09/27/281871_opinion.html We should at least do that. I concede that it is nothing tangible other than a step in the right direction but ...

Come on SaintPav, be fair. I don't see how swearing and abuse means that a poster knows nothing. You can be an uptight aggressive person AND know what you're talking about, can't you? Not only nice respectful people are intelligent, are they? Having said that, swearing and aggression are not welcome...

First option = Port Adelaide Power + hurts the eyes

current option = St Kilda Saints/Sydney Swans

From recent teams, only Bakes Gardi and Milney, but then Milney is a pretty big one so others aren't missed. From the new crew, who knows?

I've got no problem with pink, I personally don't need to affirm my masculinity with more macho colors and the dark background with white writing hurt my eyes a lot more than this floral tone. What the dickens has blue got to do with our club?

More reasons for people to laugh at us. Inexcusable effort. The person responsible should reimburse purchases from their pockets, no joke.
