Still would’ve missed the 8 if we’d beaten Port.

Well we are talking about an incompetent football club. I don't really know what St KFC is good at, but i do know it isn't football. I don't think there is any question we are number one for sacking coaches when a scapegoat is needed. Lol We kept Richo for 5 yrs .....he was shite all 5 yrs Yeah we ...

Didn't Timmy Watson play Barry Hall at full back? That also worked out well...

Now that this season is effectively shot, time to look at the future. To me we need to focus on bringing in young players via the draft and stop trying these quick fix options via the trade period. It’s about time our recruiting team brought in some young mids that hopefully will become important p...

Needs more red.

It’s obvious to me when Dougal gets injured we are in a lot of strife. If Andrews ever becomes available I would ask our top 10 paid players to take a 10% pay cut and the next 10 highest paid players to take a 7.5% pay cut. Then I would make Andrews an offer to good to refuse. Any chance we could m...

It’s interesting that when Bassat mentioned they were looking to extend Ratten a few weeks ago, and Lethlean on SEN today, neither of them said he’s an outstanding coach. They said ‘we want to keep the coaching group together’. Lethlean’s comments today (not in so many words and with some serious r...

Funded by AFL so 6 months payout even if 3 year contract.

If it's the incident I'm thinking of, didn't Syncs get stuck into Cameron? Mate Syncs is the bloke you'd hop into the trenches with, I want to see more nastiness from more players, you can't win premiershipa without it so good on Syncs for leading the way. And while I'm dishing out the man-love, do...

Only happens about 100 times a game.

We were definitely more conservative in the first half compared to the second half. Don't know whether this was a game plan issue so much as a players pooed their pants at the pressure & occasion and went defensive, then got a rocket at half-time. Plenty of pre-game commentators (including Rossy...

Tough conditions. Sweatier than a Sumo wrestler’s butt crack.

I love how the commentary becomes about me (usually snide) when there’s nowhere to go Where have I said coaches have NO importance? Evidence suggests Coaches MUST have good teams to be successful Good teams don’t necessarily have to have great coaches to succeed And What makes a great coach? Win/lo...

Credit goes to the players

Can’t remember Enright getting a kick or performing a spoil this season

Agree. We should sack all the coaches and let the players coach themselves.

Talks up Max every opportunity he gets so not sure what the drama is.

From afl.com.au Jack Bytel Conditioning TBC Updated: March 29, 2022 Can anyone explain this, and how it came about? I'll guess: we recruited a player with a serious back problem and he will be listed as two weeks away for the next 5 years at which point we will stubbornly admit we should cut our lo...

Every chance. Not sure what I would think about this. Spent a lot of years hating this guy.

Well I think it’s vital that she continue her fearless campaign of speaking truth to power and holding the club accountable for its incompetence. Just disappointed she didn’t mention equally disgraceful and relevant decisions such as the Ian Stewart/Billy Barrot trade or sending Russell Greene to Ha...

4 matches for a 2nd strike, 12 matches for a 3rd strike. If that’s what this is.

Push in the back as Ling kicked a goal

Good get. And in a fairly important game too.

Didn’t Butler or Lonie get one round 1 last year?

The club did a good job keeping Gresham’s “knee reconstruction” quiet.

In essence I fully understand and agree why St Kilda went after Dan Hannebery at the end of 2018, but the real question surrounding his recruitment from the Swans is the due diligence the club's medical team were required to perform on his dodgy calves and hamstrings, which were widely reported tow...

Geary’s feedback to Richo a few years ago was to focus more on positives than negatives. You’d think we might learn from our past mistakes but no.
