Re: You reap what you sow

Thread closed due to stupidity Truth hurts Teflon. Are Port such a good team that it’s realistic that we haven’t beaten them at our dungheap since 2010 and in Adelaide since 2011 (unless the count the fake COVID season).

Re: Josh Battle

He will definitely leave You have it on good authority? Of course he’ll leave. He’s been committed through two failed rebuilds and now we’re beginning another. He’s being courted by teams with a future, so why wouldn’t he leave. So Saints have no future? Not during his career they don’t.

Re: For the bloody life of me…

I thought we beat them in the COVID year under Ratten in Adelaide? Correct. The only win against them since 2012. It was at the Adelaide Oval and none of us in Victoria could attend because we were all lockdown at the time. Shortened quarters and we were playing in an interstate hub. Not a real sea...

Re: You reap what you sow

Yeah yeah, stand by your ideology of supporting mediocrity without question.

Watch Hinkley in tears after that win. If anyone was going to save his career, it was us.

Relish in irrelevance if that makes you feel like a “true supporter.”

You reap what you sow

We’re ultimately to blame for how depressingly ordinary this club has become. The years of tolerating sheer mediocrity - Richo, Finnis and Lethlean, re-signing Ratten and then doubling-down by bringing in Ross Lyon. The fans tolerate it and laud it, because at least these administrators are apparent...

Re: Can't take a trick...

Interesting thing about Hinkley is that unless you count the COVID “stop-gap” season, he’s yet to suffer a loss against us.

If Barrett is correct and he’s a goner for 2025, this could be our last chance to beat him.

Isn’t one of the common reasons for asking for a trade is to get more opportunities? Another is to move interstate Commonly, yes.

I would think that you should keep your shitty Sydney comments in the equally shitty Harbour city.

Re: Would a merger or relocation be such a bad thing

Predictable responses. Putting aside the emotions and the argument of heritage, what structure have we implemented to better ensure future success since our last great era ended in 2011? Relocating back to Moorabbin and participating in themed matches. Three rebuilds later and we still don’t draft a...

Would a merger or relocation be such a bad thing

The code is about to expand to 19 teams. There isn’t enough AFL quality talent to even fill 18 teams. Since GWS and GCS entered the comp, we have failed to build a competitive lineup worthy of challenging or even being a consistent finals performer. While the AFL won’t admit it, the code can’t susta...

Worked out brilliantly for us with BJ, Dal and McEvoy. Looking forward to replacing a consistent top 10 B&F player with the next Tom Lee. I love Battle but to put him in the same category as the 3 above is ridiculous. Also this is about free agency which wasnt really a thing. We don't want to l...

Re: "As far from a flag as anyone in the league"

It has dawned on me recently that we will need to rebuild through the draft due to our inability to attract high end talent through FA or trade. This can take decades as evidenced by Melbourne, Western Bulldogs and Carlton in recent times. So it seems we are still quite aways off it. I still have w...

Re: "As far from a flag as anyone in the league"

As I keep saying, the Finnis era screwed us! People canonise him for moving us back to Moorabbin and being an all-round nice guy, but that is the pinnacle of his long serving legacy. He treated the fans like we were gullible fools (calling us a “destination club” when no decent FA wanted to touch us...
