He would provide me with an excellent excuse to go barrack for another club.

Don't you mean Showbags Shorten, Ace...? Technically, he's the current leader of Australia's 'liberal' party.

No chance of that happening. That useful idiot is still 'needed' in Cantberra.

Carrots? Salads? Spuds? :shock: This is what's wrong with out beloved Saintas! We're becoming boring and mainstream! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=79KNO67c-UM Quail in rose petal sauce. This is more St Kilda. :D (Apologies for the appalling dubbing. Ruins much of the emotional impact of the origin...

I'm slightly surprised this article hasn't had a run on here yet. (Where are you St B? :( ) COMMENT: How to rebuild a list: Hawks v Saints http://www.afl.com.au/news/2018-08-17/how-to-rebuild-a-list-hawks-v-saints IMHO, this piece really needs to be read right to the end. I didn't consider it to be ...

I never ever thought I would be in a position to do this. I'm a life-long, rusted on, tragic painter. My father played a few games for the club. He took me, as a young boy, to watch the 1966 triumph, by his side. We gathered for countless pre-game drinks/BBBQs with the mates,then onto Moorabbin, in...

Wow! Nash Carlisle is really impressive!

Sounds like Tom Lynch... again.

Bump. (Sigh. I miss Pluggsy...) Our beloved Saintas currently (yet again?) have issues. But they can be turned around. :idea: And one major major way to do this, is to stop becoming yet another pointless boring vanilla AFL Inc. cookie-cuter produced drone. Return to what is our heart, our soul... ou...

We might be in Tasmania in 5 years Good! It would give us more direction than we have now! Guys (gals?)!!! :shock: We move away, and that's the end of our beloved footy club!!! (South Melbourne and Fitzroy are no more, no matter how hard some try to delude themselves.) We do have major issues, but ...

Saintas' cult players...?

Back in the day, no one more so than D.J. McNamara.

Having a beer with him sounds fine, just don't buy a used car from him. I think you might find Enrico, that the 'issues' weren't so much to do with dodgy cars, but with dodgy people test driving them... through red light cameras. (And Rod Keogh's loss was a largely overlooked blow to our chances th...

i've given up. been a hawks supporter these last six years. just come on here to remind me what a smart move it was. you poor bastards! I'm calling 'BS' to that post! (Big time!) I happen to know that Swiss people are very cultured. And no Swiss person would ever be prepared to let herself be seen ...

From memory, we started well under Timmy. Then, everyone else worked out what he was doing. (Switching play to loose blokes lined up on the other side of the ground.) Tim had no plan B... :oops: However, to Tim's credit, plan C was a good one. I'm hoping Richo' also adopts Tim's plan C at the end of...

We don't need Lycett, and certainly not at $700K a year(!) We currently have Louey and The Marshall. Watch these bloke show us a rosy future in the next two games. And then there's Lazar's man, Hickey. Should we get an offer to good to refuse for Tom, then I reckon we should bring back big Jason, or...

They are welcome to 'em if they want. (Though just not before our first pick!)

I understand where you're coming from here Bob, but, personally, I never want a wooden spoon or priority pick ever again.

Don't go vanilla Saintas!!! (If we had our own ground and identity I would feel completely different about this...) the JO is the GO +3 Time to bring back smaller, cheaper to run, better for the fans stadiums. You only have to look as far as Geelong to see it happen. Even Carlton has something that...

We've (finally :roll: ) cottoned-on to who should be our ruck/resting forward combo'. The Freeman is on the park. Long and BAcres are back on the park. Robbo' may be back on the park. The Bruce and Battle will be back on the park. Clarke, Coffield and Phillips have shown us they'll have what it take...

Ratten??? We already have plenty of barrackers! Very very underwhelming at Carlscum. :roll: And under his tenure they had their strongest sides since the turn of the century. :idea: And those sides were boosted by getting Mr don't-tell-anyone-that-I've-invested-in Matheson's pokies-and-am-being paid...

Well on another disappointing night Pierce was one plus. Only one game, but that was better than Longer plays and even possibly Hickey. Certainly fora ruckman playing only his second game it was a very credible performance. Was better than Bellchambers. I thought he was excellent, considering. Surp...

Back in the day players could catch up with their mates after the game in the social club of whomever was the home side. No chance of that happening now. So why begrudge a few minutes chat catching-up with a mate... after the game is done? Did the likes of Nick and Jack R not give their all, before ...

I was dead against this... till the article said how little the Hillbillies are paying Menzel. :shock: We have heaps of cap space, and he won't cost us very much of that anyway. 'Petty cash' pretty much. He's only 26, and won't cost us a single draft pick either. So do it Saintas. No cost, with quit...

He'd be outstanding. For starters, we'd become immediately relevant. He is, after all, somebody who understands the heart and soul of the club. Let's end the vanilla days. Time to ramp up what this club is really about. This!!! :twisted: I agree that our financial position makes it currently very h...

Played footy with Andrew. Always got on well. Huge Saints man. Really respect him. So happy for him when SEEK was a hit. Wouldn't surprise me if he tried to recruit another ex teammate to the board (or as a major donor) https://www.afr.com/business/banking-and-finance/investment-banking/macquarie-i...

Let's end the vanilla days. Time to ramp up what this club is really about. I've read soooooooooooo many despairing posts of late. :( In reply, some people have tried to point out that we were worse in the 80's. (We were.) But, the response to that, is that even then, our club still had stars, and ...

... So that's the intel side covered. Then we just need a hard nosed bastard to administer the True Believer-style tough love. He (or she) is the one appointed to be the senior coach. Mitchell? Roo? Vidovic? So, Lazar, you available for some head-kicking as required? If you're pretty busy these day...
