Re: Anyone see this?

Absent Lindsay Fox and Lindsay’s “clout” thru Linfox there would be no St Kilda FC There was a major bank which was the Secured Creditor That major bank was central to the Scheme of Arrangement - absent their agreement there was no Scheme of Arrangement And you can take that to the bank Those were t...

Re: Anyone see this?

Ignorance on all counts. Firstly, the Scheme of Arrangement is a Court of Law Order. That is the beginning and the end of the matter. IF you now give preference to Players, who at the time were Unsecured Creditors, what about the other Unsecured Creditors gripped by the Court Order? And the Secured ...

Re: Sandringham v Essendon VFL

My view, whilst limited because I was not able to watch the entire VFL game, is that all of the AFL Listed players performed very well yesterday, showing the depth of our List I do not know the caliber of the opposition but I assume Essendon had AFL Listed players available so like for like Campbell...

Re: What the hell is going on with Membury?

Re: Saints 150

And just to add Why the focus on St Kilda and 1984? Collingwood was required to pay by bank cheque, up front, for match day deliveries of beverage at Victoria Park Later, Geelong had half of its debt written off by Westpac, the other 50% financed by Bendigo Bank which remains a naming “sponsor” Then...

Re: Saints 150

I note that Costello’s rag has an article on St Kilda which refers to 150 years but focussed on 1984 and the Resolutions (with Crawford involved) that saw the Club not liquidated Some received 7 cents in the $1-, others 22 cents Sitting after the secured creditor, a secured creditor which saw provis...

Re: Round One VFL : Southport vs Sandy

Of the half dozen who did play against Southport, traditionally a very strong Club both financially and on field, the 2 I am most interested in regard the near future are Heath and Adams The AFL back 6 is only missing Coffield hence Highmore at VFL level And with Coffield back it will become more di...

Re: Match Thread Saints v Freo Round 1 2023

With umpiring what you look for is near enough to consistency. You will never get consistency hence the reference to "near enough". And that the swings and roundabouts even out. There were a couple of holding the ball penalties against us which I thought questionable on prior opportunity, ...
