He said hello to me one day as he kept everything in order at training, does that count? Honestly I have no idea what he actually does at the club, just walks around looking busy.

You forget the Chair of the committee is our Pres. Very astute businessman from the recruitment industry. Doesn't give the impression he would let a boys club sway him.

Stuv going well, a class above. Very lively but a bit rusty and got caught a few times. The standard of his general play is being affected by the quality of players around him, particularly the non Saints players. Very impressed with Mayo, a good size, athletic and looking more comfortable at this l...

Not a Kent fan at all, the guy is not a consistent AFL standard player in my opinion and I believe he should have been dropped for the Melbourne game as there were players like Hind, Young & Long in the twos who could have replaced him. Whilst he had an absolute shocker against Brisbane he has ...

Sick of reading the suggestions that our club has been negligent in this issue. If you read the article in yesterdays Herald Sun you will see the meticulous planning that our dietician did in planning what food we would take and where and what the team should eat once over there. She even collaborat...

Possibly to part ways with North as soon as this weekend. Tom Browne suggested we might be interested. Why would we want him. After 10 years as coach of the Roos has he been successful? I think not.

Just an observation. Every time I see him at training he is messing around annoying other players etc, maybe it's a maturity thing. I should add he also does some good things which indicate he has some talent

That new structure at the front is the facilities for the AFLW team I think.

Purple recently went head to head with our Pres in a 25 minute interview on a range of issues (see AFL.com).Be interesting to see who initiated the interview and whether the Purple one changes his attitude towards us. The Pres certainly doesn't suffer fools gladly. The Pres is an impressive individu...

The FOXTEL telecast: 1. The Demons Mutual Admiration Society consisting of Lyon and Roos, with new recruits McGuire and Russell, absolutely fawning over the Dees in the early part of the game. 2. The interview with Jack Viney coming off the ground at 1/2 was a shocker. Stumbled over his words and sa...

Didn’t see Bytel or Clavarino

Couple of nice things at training today: * Guard of honor for Max King as he joined the training group for first time. Skipper had rigged up a makeshift banner. Cheers for Max when he did something well. * Hanners running on his own and Lade went and joined him for about 10 mins. * Carlisle welcomed...

and what did we win the 66 Grand Final by ..... 1 point

I did and concur with Bernard Shakey's comments above. I would add Ricey was lively on the forward line, like the look of Langlands, he cracks in, Marshall rucked, roved and got possessions
around the ground all day.

According to AFL website Newnes will be one of two FA key targets (with Sam Day). Given the mediocre year he had this year should we be worried?

Bit confused about this 'closed' training session. You can go down to a training session at any time, I go quite often. The whole complex is quite open, it's a bit hard to keep people out.

Nathan Brown included amongst those who did well as well as Ross and Jill

12 PB's, including White, not a bad effort. McKenzie home first.

Based on training ths morning:

Marshall for Carlisle
Coffield for White
Mav for McKenzie

Based on training this morning: Ins Marshall, Dunstan, Outs Billy (inj) Sinclair and Clark omitted. Steven noticeably limping but trained with the main group. Didn't notice Stevens at all. Billy out there but struggling with hip ended up in Reserves team. Wellar in 1's initially but seemed off the p...

Didn't we just lose our media guy Josh Gabelic. Thought he was very good, not sure why he left but the timing wasn't great. We don't seem to be able to keep them very long but they seem to go on to bigger and better things eg Tom Morris. Don't forget in the past 2-3 years we have won an AFL best med...

Not overly happy with this appointment either because of questionable character. Has suffered public embarrasment, served some time, is taking a step backwards career wise but if it’s going to benefit the Saints I can live with it. How long though before he steps into Finnis’s job? Part of a success...
