Loved Baker when he played, hated how he got shafted by the tribunal (Kickett incident, the tall idiot from Essendon standing on him, suspended for a jumper punch etc etc), but now I'm really struggling to get past his confessions in the Mike Sheahan interview. We'd hate a thug like that if he playe...

Would hate to see what you would've said if you were being rude to both. Agree though.

I'm not a Caro hater at all. I actually think she does a very good job overall - sure she's stuffed a few things up over the years, but who hasn't? But I agree with the comments that this article is rambling and lacks a point. The whole tone of the article is critical of Roo, but then she says he sh...

Doesn't anybody have a comment about the Hun's article today that suggests that Beveridge is a shoe-in for tbe Doggies job???? Any inside info to put my mind at rest? I was getting very bullish about the contribution that LB could make generally but also as a confidant/sounding-board/etc for Richo....

I also heard the interview today and I couldn't disagree with him anymore when he said we were in a similar position to the Hawks in 2004. Maybe we will be at the end of next year or even the year after but we are no where near the rebuilding stage of the Hawks in 2004. Not even close. Completely u...

Richo knows the Petracca family personally and has done so for years.

Disgraceful! That's almost as bad as when GT forced us to draft Ball ahead of Judd because he used to be having it off with Ball's mother!!!

Is the jury in or out? Not sure how we can be pro or anti Pelican yet. Too early in his plans. But we will know one way or the other in 3 years time. Yes, agree it's still too early to know if he's doing any good or not. But what I do know is that I like that he has a plan. It might not work, but a...

what I was actually alluding to was the rate of decline in terms of W/L rather than the decline down the ladder per se. Do you realise how insane you are sounding? The following year we finished 16th... So from 6th place we went to 9th then 16th Nothing about that can be considered "arresting ...

I reckon we're closer to a premiership now than Freo.

Best final he's played, easily Didn't see the game last night but heard he was good. Was he tagged? Hmmmm, looks like Saints didn't know how to get the best out of Dal...

hey pelican.....what did you get for dal santo???.....billy longer you say..........???....what a flowering joke.... .....and don't try and tie in delany...he was coming our way anyway..... Yeah, I hear what you're saying - it definitely hurts to see one of our own playing for someone else, particu...

The best trade in the clubs history, if not the comps Why? Because we offloaded an overated dinosaur for two premium midfield kids lol . Then throw in Savage for good measure. I am happy to hear if we've done a better one, I can't think of it? Way to early to call. Losing ian Stewart for Billy Barr...

I think there was an ego struggle between RL and LB. Sadly that was put before the best interests of the club (egos over team is probably a saints trait over the years....) My position is if RL wanted him gone well thats his prerogative as sr coach - but it is disgraceful we got nothing in return. ...

That's not justifiable.

Was more than just Ross.

Why Luke Ball is still critised on here amazes me, we all know it was RL who ended his career with us as well as costing us a flag by refusing to put Luke back on the ground in the '09 grand final when he'd been one of our if not the best in the first half. Any player worth his salt would've wanted...

Would add Joel Smith also. $$$.

Would love to know how Kosi got on with Hutchy given history.

Got in a fight in Tassie on bye weekend. Dropped for disciplinary reasons.

Is this the team coached by the guy who ripped into us when we sacked Capuano mid-season and said that this sort of thing could lead to a player "dropping off a bridge or swinging from a bridge"?

Is that book the story of when Carlton tried to "merge" with us?

Dermott Brereton, I'm reliably informed by a source at the Herald Sun. It is Dermott. Came out at our footy club on Tuesday or Wednesday. His son hasnt been playing in the junior side he coaches and apparently has some pretty serious personal issues. Seems like a strange place to come out. Not that...

Will get back to you on this in 5 years.
