We haven't lost at the Gabba since 2008 (I think). So it's virtually a home game for us, so the maggots treat us like the Egirls in Perth, lol Jesus wept, talk about selective use of stats!! I moved up here in 1992 and it took me 16 years to see us win a game at the Gabba, I thought we were cursed....

I can't remember if it was footy or cricket but a year or so ago I was at some sporting event and they kept running people from the crowd's tweets on the scoreboard and it made me feel like stabbing somebody with something sharp - probably the idiot putting them up there in the first place. Why the ...

not being critical...but if history repeats itself we'll also lose 3 GFs in 2 years...

Never happened...

Joey's having a dip too, and Lenny and Fish have a crack but seem hampered by failing bodies...

I understand your point re Lovett, but I still believe that no one could have predicted what played out and that we would get absolutely no return (zero games) on our investment... Losing Ball for nothing still staggers me...

We're the only club who has won 11 games or more every year for ten years, and in this climate of equalisation that is unsustainable. We're paying the price for a long run of "success" which equates to no decent draft picks, plus topping up our list when we were legitimately close to a fla...

Sorry, saw thread below, glad you had a good time!

How was the bash?

Still in NZ after Anzac Day (coming all the way over so we figured we might as well have a holiday, drove the South Island for a week) and just back in Wellington, apparently there's no live AFL coverage at all here this year and last week was an aberration because we were all in town. Went to about...

I think everyone is overlooking the indisputable fact that after Lyon had taken us to two Grand Finals at the end of 2010, he still had a clause in his contract that enabled his contract to be terminated with three months (12 weeks) notice. So in effect a coach who had taken us to two successive Gr...

Thought he was ok in poor conditions.... Coaching structure did him zero favours... You didnt see the game so how would you know. Why do you lie. Were you brought up poorly? or did no one hug you as a kid. Please now go into your kids room and apologise for being their dad. Mods? Ban please. Insult...

Awesome to be a part of and the club should be both proud and commended for driving such a bold initiative. Great to be at the forefront rather than lagging, well done to all involved...

I did notice earlier in the game McEvoy and Pike locked in a contest and Mumford was free to go up himself. That apparently was OK.

Really thought no saide was favoured by the umps. They got them early and we got them late. its going to be along few years if every week people think they cheated so we would lose. You are a d**khead. Total and utter. Please barrack for someone else (anyone), it would be a win for all involved (ex...

Last night walking around Wellington there were Saints scarves and jackets eveywhere! Biggest concentration I can remeber seeing, except walking to a game at Linton St or something. Only saw a smattering of Swans fans, hopefully that's indicative of crowd at game. It's a tad chilly but not too bad (...

At Brisbane airport, plane delayed. Plenty of Saints scarves and shirts to be seen!

You do realise hall getting suspended didnt help us. i have read on here someone saying it cost us a flag because he wasnt suspended. How was Goose feeling after he was hit you goose?? He was fit enough to play at FF moments later, so I don't think the hit was as hard as we like to think. Yeah righ...

Pissweak thread then, lazy and pissweak thread now.

Anybody who criticises Goddard after that needs their head checked. He loves this club, he loves these players. He's still a human being and I totally understand why he left. Really, given the offer, and not knowing what holds for life after footy, who wouldn't? Maybe some of you have never been at...

Embarrassing, if he loves the club so much he shouldn't have accepted a Life Membership and then held us to ransom for a salary we couldn't justify or afford. He didn't have to participate in free agency, he chose to. I don't care about people crying when it's justified but that was just weird.

I'll apologise up front because I'm sure this has been discussed elsewhere (couldn't find in first few pages of posts) but just out of curiosity why did we play our home game against Richmond at their home ground? Must have been a financial windfall for the club with that decent-ish crowd but possib...

Noticed today in our Sunday paper ( QLD ) an article about the Suns and how much they like Guy Mckenna and tacked on the end of it was a note about murmours of increasing dissent amongst players are getting louder about St.Kilda coach Scott Watters..? First time I've heard of any negative comments ...
