Can I drop the name Ferguson in here. He was recruited as a forward, plays taller than he is, can find the pill, has ok pace, and has only been played at senior level as a defender, but has shown he knows how read the play. Looks the ideal medium forward IMO, and showed in the pre-season toerrent in...

Is it just me or do SFF seem to have done more in 2 weeks to canvas the membership than the incumbents have done in about 7 years? Asking a genuine question here because I am not involved with any official supporter groups and as such am likely to be unaware of any communication that the club undert...

http://www.saints.com.au/Default.aspx?tabid=5315&newsId=51545 The St Kilda Football Club today announced that a Board meeting will be called at the earliest possible time to set a date for a General Meeting to resolve once and for all the notice of removal of directors, as issued by hostile Dir...

I would add Burkey to that - not flashy, but at one stage he and Banger were THE midfield combo. He did most of the grunt work and was one of the toughest I've ever seen. I remember a game (maybe against the dawks) where the commentators thought he had broken his arm in the first quarter because he ...

Can someone explain to me the stuff about not having 2 people on the Veterans list because of the rookie situation? I really don't understand the rules about that. Anyone? It's like a supplementary list - you can have 6 players on it. That can be 1 vet and 5 rookies or 3 vet's and 3 rookies or what...

I have not posted on the board topic until now. Now I simply cannot refrain any longer. I cannot believe the passion and abuse that have come out of all of this debate. After 3 decades as a loyal Sainter, i feel i am only now starting to understand the nature of the club. Why are people so devout in...

I would - even if he wasn't on fire - but then I am a nice bloke!!

Aaaahhhhh - the mere mention of the name Tim Elliott gives me a headache. My brother laughs at my impending reaction when he hears the name. I used to refer to him as "The Caliper Kid" and would declare us certain losers if his name appeared on the team list. I am sure he was a very nicec ...

Excuse me - this is a troll right? What hand-outs are we supposed to have received????

Having more than one geniuine tall marking target stretches them, especially if you separate their defenders. they like to have stoppages aplenty, and if you watch them they crowd lots of bodies into the stoppage zone, play it like rugby uniomn, and then have one or two guys sitting 5 to 10 yrds off...

Orange boots are clearly an accessory to a brown coat - tools from the same shed. Delist Gardiner - we've put in a year into a former AA ruckman who should be somewhere near his prime and you want to get rid of him without a game!! :roll: :roll: Raph has finally showed something in the back end of 0...

Looks like it's time to get the rust off the golf swing again!!!!

Firstly, it's tribunal - there is no "e" in the word. Secondly, I am guessing your age at about 14 or so. You structure is typical of that age, where you refer to certain pieces of information in a way that assumes the reader (or listener) is fully familiar with the topic. Thirdly, I would...

To put it in very simple layman's terms, he blind-sided another player and took him out of the game. By any reading of the available reports this is indisputably what happened. FROGSHYTE: He did not blindside anyone - Farmer ran into him - which part of that do you not get - the only report to the ...

Hey everyone I am doing a report on the AFL being the most corrupt organisation in Australia, I have quite a few points but I am struggling to get it started so could you guys please help me out with anything you think proves the AFL are corrupt and please don't go to crazy about Baker :lol: i will...

The relevance is that what Baker did,is by no means excusable and never has been and never will be considered acceptable in our game. Excuse me Mr SplintersuptheAr$e, but what did Baker do exactly? The problem is that no-one really knows, Baker by his own admission was merely blocking Farmers run! ...

Thanks OWTS.

Probably very good reason - there was some real spleen-venting in there and then some baiting form Waverley73 that I took hook, line and sinker!
Can't imaginie what got me so riled up last night

Thanks. I tried tracking via the user list as Waverley73 had a few posts i the thread, but that user name is credited with zero posts????

Sure there was a thread titled something like "Farmer hit from side" or some such which I can't locate.

Has it been deleted?

your implication is that justice is a goal of the AFL? the AFL is about revenue and markets, it hasn't been about justice for sometime. Sorry to disagree here Dan, but didn't the AFL overturn the result of a drawn game and award it to Freo, despite no such precedent, and in direct contravention of ...
