Maybe he was trying to bounce it

Yeah I thought it was a little low too...

Lloyd's was actually very good, but it is almost identical to the back-heeler by Riewoldt earlier this year (or was it last year?)

Having said that, Milne's was a lot better. The impossible angle, if nothing else, should be the edge.

looking at it, if brisbane win the ladder becomes VERY tight. Sydney would be only half a game ahead of us with two tough games to come. So in some sense we could still gain if brisbane do win. true, but we would rather the swans to win????? As far as I gather, it means a second spot in the 8 becom...

One could almost say the wheels have fallen off their ship.

Seeing this. I wonder why Voss, Blake, Birss and Raph havn't been used more. They play good footy, think they just need people to have faith in them. Agree with Voss, undecided on Birss and Raph. How much more faith do you want in Blake? He's played every game this year (IIRC) :P Blake is a star. h...

Awesome. Hardly lost a hitout against Gilmore.

You beauty!

Pretty funny that he and the Hampshire board found a loophole in the system.

I can't think of a word to describe him... so "he" fell over. It's as simple as that.

Yeah, getting rid of Tim Watson was the best thing we ever did

Picture this. The saints are playing in the last AFL game of september, and Thommo had gotten over his knee injury and played a half of footy for the scorps and amassed 25 posessions. Do you play him in the grand final? Of course you would. Experience is vital. He has played in finals and a Grand F...

If you cannot win us some games. Please look alive, and speak as if you are positive. In this day of media, we all hang on every word you say. Unfortunately your next job might be for some sleep disorder company. Ross, I hope you prove me wrong and stickit right up me, by delivering the holy grail....

Haha bigcarl.

In answer to the original question, I honestly thought we would make the 8.

Brad Johnson

i remember being at a boxingday picnic and there was this fairly big aboriginal kid (i would guess maybe 13 or 14) kickin a footy about 30m on both feet into a garbage bin then running to collect the ball to then run back and kick again i watched for bout 30 mins as he actually got bout 60% of them...

theres one kid who can kick the ball 30m, he's pretty hardcore tanky pacey midfielder and his so pro at grade 1 he has full saints kit plus mouth guard. he's one of the best two kids!

Would the Ross Lyon game plan suit him?

Don't like tempo posting?

in an otherwise blando day, that brought a smile :thumbsup

Milne is a gun. We need more of those sort of blokes who are willing to take a risk. He snapped 2 or 3 last night? He's doing his job, very well I might add.

Watch the match and everything will fall in to place. Clarke was absolutely terrible... hell, his turnovers resulting in goals alone probably cost us the game.

Worth the punt at the start of the year, but I'm almost tempted to see him Capuanoed. Looks completely out of place at AFL level. Demote immediately, promote friggen Geary if we must. We've given the boy a good salary for a year, 12 months in the AFL and a great time he'll never forget. He'll now g...

It is?

What is different about that era, compared to 2007?

I'll give you a clue, this person came from Sydney and his initials are RL

Ahh, if only....

Overreacting. He wants to play on next year. He'll come good.

The Eagles plane is diverted to Auckland or Tahiti perhaps?

Tell you what, there's a few posters on here who want to be tackling the coach...
