if we're to play all of max, dawson and blake in the same backline raph would be the one likely to make way. in some respects it would make us perhaps more solid defensively but maybe at the cost of losing some run and flair, There seems to be a misconception that Blake and Dawson are purely defens...

Love baseball and love the Yankees!!! If only my beloved saints could have been half as successful!!!

Could this year be the year the Yankees win the world series and saints win the flag?????!!!!![/quote]

After watching Kingy this week Is he still ahead of McEvoy for the 2nd ruck spot??? I'm not so sure, his tap work at boundary throw ins is still pretty good, but he was getting soundly beaten at centre bounces and his movement around the ground resembles the Franz Joseph glazier. Big Mac is improvin...

Ive heard a rumour that a couple of Blues fans were on the recieving end of some of your best work the other week? Not one of my finer moments there Michael!! But I am getting a tad cranky in my old age. My wife still hasn't forgiven me. But again you expect abuse from opposition supporters, and we...

I am sick and tired of goign to the footy and having to tell St Kilda supporters to pull their heads in...again it happened this week, two old fogies bagging the crap out of Raph before the ball was even within 20 metres of him. It was the churlish, boring and obnoxious abuse I have had the displeas...

simple never tip against my sainters, never!!!!!

maybe not every player but maybe every player thats played 100 games?? Great idea Rodg

Too many good StKilda players for a Saint to win. Bartel did it with Ablett and Selwood finishing in the to 5. With the distinct possibility of us winning more than 18 games this year and with the majority of them being fairly sizeable wins, we will probably poll a record number of votes for our cl...

interesting hypothetical.....the upside of Cousins in the side is tantalizing, the down side, could he have taken the focus from the side? would Geary and Jones flourished as much or given the same opportunity? Would Joey and Dal grown to the players they have become without the extra responsibility...

Another good read Rodger. A few points..... Totally agree about Eddy, good trier, hard at it, good stamina, terrible kick cannot be trusted by foot. Good to see someone acknowledging the fact that Raph was given the hardest assignment in the back half and kept Le Cras pretty quiet. I thought he at l...

I am sick and tired of the Clarke bashers on this so called fan forum. FFS yeah he made a few mistakes in the first half, but his direct opponent Le Cras, who has been very good this year for the eagles hardly looked dangerous. Plus there were a few players who were far worse than Raph but don't fac...

Not bad Rodger, quite a good summation. Totally agree with your comments on Joey and Gram. We don't have any kids coming through still. Geary is battling, Eddy is ordinary, McEvoy is still 2 years away and Armitage is taking a while. An injection of youth is important, and I think Rosco needs to fin...

If it's the former, I could just put $100,000 on that for $14,000 payout, to cover me if I loose the $14,000 bet at $5.50 for the 25-0, which pays out $63,000.

I don't think u thought this through....IF we did go undefeated, you would have just lost $37,000!!!

I had the distinct misfortune to be sitting next to a couple of tools at the Geelong game who just bagged the crap out of Raph from the minute the ball was bounced. Some of the hate filled garbage they spewed out made me ashamed to be a St Kilda fan. It's one thing to be critical of a player for mak...

One of the bi-products of the close checking, ferocious tackling, high pressure game this week was some of the most incredible contested marks I have seen at the footy for some time. Gards took 3 rippers, Kosi and Roo, and Jimmy Bartel, is this guy the best medium sized overhead mark the game has se...

The other thing that we must do is use Gardiner when he moves forward. Last week I noticed at least half dozen occasions when Gardi set up at around the 50 m arc and we completely ignored him and bombed long to Roo or Kosi. If Geelong defence sag back as they tend to do, then we must use this option...

I have a man-crush on bally Some of his kamikaze head first dives into packs last week were just unbelievable. He NEVER thinks twice before committing his body to a contest you gotta love him

this is where we also need a goalkicking third forward Bingo!! We must have a 3rd DANGEROUS tall forward this week. This is the only way to stop Milburn and Harley peeling off their men to double team Roo or Kosi. One of Goddard or Gilbert must be played forward and then not be ignored if they are ...

Can't wait for this game, I HATE Geelong with a passion and will be screaming my lungs out. Speaking of home games, I think the club could do a bit more to contribute here, I really liked the way the doggies and Nth "dress up" the stadium at their home games, it at least identifies who the...

AND there's more chance of Paris Hilton joining the nunnery than Gram ever winning a hard contested ball, even when it's Grams turn when he happens to be the closest player to the contest, he will shirk it, hang back and not commit his body 100%, only player in our team that does it, This is by far...

Back to Blakey for a minute - Also saw him stand in front of packs, throw his body into contests to protect the man getting the ball, shepherd at every opportunity, tackle like a demon, often going twice, even three times. Saw him take defensive marks, create opportunities for players under pressur...

I may be wrong in saying this but it seems the people who have seen Goose play a few times this year at Sandy are the ones with doubts on if he is now good enough, after all his injuries, to get a game this year and the people who want him in havent seen him play but are hoping he can play like he ...

Junior Wrote: Firstly he has done well to get back playing and he looks very fit. His body must be going well as he has now strung together half a season. Having seen him play now on 3 occassions this year , the reality is that he is just not the same player. Not that I would expect him to be given ...
