Re: Terrible newspaper article in Sydney
The COL is total crap. a) its assigned as a percentage. It costs a fixed amount to live in Sydney. Other factors such as real estate are an investment choice. b) if we are going to do COL adjustment it has to include all locations, Perth, Adelaide, Brisbane, Gold Coast, West Sydney, Melbourne and Ge...

Its the middle earners at Sydney who suffer.dragit wrote:I'm happy for any Sydney player earning less than $100,000 to receive a cost of living bonus.
The ones on minimum probably get their 20K on top, but the ones on 200 -300 would be on what they are on and its neither here nor there.

Savvy?
If I walk up to the Hotdog stand , and there is one left, and some dick offers the Vendor fifty bucks , and I choose to spend a few bucks on chips instead and keep the fifty bucks in my pocket, does that make me not Savvy?

Re: Markworth? Is he any good?
Decades? Seriously what a douchbag. Basically you are saying it doesn't matter who we draft now, they'll be retired before the team comes good? ( I agree about the drafting in the last decade, but the people drafting now aren't the ones who did it ). Hawthorn hawthorn ooooh I'm boning over hawthorn,...

Re: Other clubs are the source of our trade speculation.
Who cares in a few weeks everyone will know the truth, and if they are full of crap its their credibility they are devaluing.
( Of course it may be that their credibility is similar to Tom Ledger's trade value ).

Re: Official Trade Rumours thread (all in here please)
Maybe im reading it wrongly because I think McEvoy can play but pick 18 doesnt seem enough for me and I have no idea why we would get rid of him for pick 18 anyway. Again probably because I think he can play and he is in the right age group. If we have to get rid of players then get rid of our 29 a...

Re: fevola - money's gone...
Carlton didn't do enough to help him. Poor culture at that club for a long long time which allowed a bloke to act like he did off the field, and they basically turned a blind eye because of his on-field performance. Something that the Saints were possibly guilty of a long time ago, but we are only ...

Re: Sandy partnership in trouble- Capt abandons ship?
Cockie won the best and fairest by a fair margin. He's remaining at Sandringham. ( Captain material )?? Curren came second. I think its fair to say that Sandringham got more of Curren than they should have expected. Saints could have legitimately played him all year. Dunell was next. Played minimal ...

Re: Sen predicting mass exodus
But clearly Ball left because of Lyon and not Riewoldt. This is beyond question and should be put to bed once and for all. Yep. He couldn't meet Lyon's benchmark for mid-field running. Lyon had zero flexibility over it and consequently marginalised Ball to 'motivate' him. It worked. Ball became mot...

Re: Sandy partnership in trouble- Capt abandons ship?
To be honest I thought that injuries were a massive problem for Sandringham this year. Fisher, Gilbert, Gwilt, Ferguson, Markworth, Wright, Milera, Stanley, White , Siposs , Koschitski ( and probably others ) were all affected by injuries that either directly affected Sandringham, or meant that StKi...
