[quote="Sainternist"]He hasn't been the same player since retruning from injury last year. He is most definitely lacking in confidence. His football smarts have all gone to the wayside as well. It'll be interesting to see where he's at by the time the season comes to a conclusuion.[/quote]...

This is not the game I grew up with anymore. It has been spoiled. I now feel as though I don't know the rules anymore. Bring back the good old days. Kosi made a great tackle.

Ross is anxious to go shopping. Get going Ross and make sure you bag a beauty.

I don't think Sam Gilbert is a forward full stop. He needs to play on the back line where he can get that run forward. Not Sam's night last night.

I agree that Gram looks lazy on the ground. It would be nice to see some urgency about his play. I think the injuries of late have caused him to slow down. He is nowhere as fast as he was and when he sinks his boot into the football to roost it a long way, the strength in his kicking is just not the...

My family have sat on the wing since the year 2000 and we don't hear our cheer squad much at all. from there I don't know how many you are in number but think your banners are really terrific. Just a bit of feedback for you to work with. Go Sainters.

She is nothing but a little tramp and why anyone would want to have anything to do with her amazes me and I have thought that from the start. Nixon is rather strange as well. Now it is time that we didn't talk about little Miss Tramp. There are better subjects of discussion.

[quote="SaintSimmo"]IN gamble (HUGE risk) clarke (expected) gram (surprise considering he hasnt been performing in the vfl) OUT montagna out (injured) polo (he is an ex tiger for a reason, no loss there) siposs (rested???) interesting call[/quote] Thats is the correct deduction I believe. ...

[quote="Buckets"]From Robbo's The Tackle today: http://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/tackle 2. Selective memory Eddie said he and the Collingwood Football Club, wasn't on trial yesterday, but in a way it was. It's terrific for footy for Eddie to make a stand, but at the same time hollow. ...

Can't blame Milney and Sneids if the ball doesn't get down to them. Saints could not get the ball out of the middle and down to our forwards. There is the problem added to the fact that Rooey needs to stay a bit closer to home when playing on the forward line.

Consider this - Dawson to full forward (can't have him as FB) and if he doesn't fire a FF after a few games then he must go. Polo gone never to return. My heart was in my mouth every time he went anywhere near the ball. Walsh and Clarke into the team. I think that Tommy Walsh could not do any worse....

[quote="mullet"]Mick Malthouse has got to stop believing his own publicity. I used to respect him as a good football mind until he called milney a rapist and then lied about it. and now he calls players cheats. And his captain decideds what questions are going to be asked at press confrenc...

[quote="SainterK"]Oh come on, Collingwood bomb it, they just have the numbers. It's not effective disposal because of hitting a target, it's effective disposal because of numbers. Kick it forward, kick it to space, run on to the footy.[/quote] Collingwood looked physically much stronger th...

I agree that we should have more day games. It does place a burden on the family when we have so many night games. Loved our Saturday afternoon game recently, it was like old times with so many families around. Worth airing our opinion as members to the club before this season finishes.

[quote="SainterK"]What about general fear for my own safety?

[/quote]

I could not agree more. Fear for your safety when we play the filth.

[quote="Junction Oval"]Persevere with the young guys. [/quote]


Totally agree. So many of these guys have been in and out of the team and found wanting. Give the young guns a go and see what they can produce. We need to know what they can produce.

I think Fisher should be left on the backline where he is a strength for us. Rotating Gilbert into the midfield might be a worthwhile trial. I did not think Dal Santo did all that much playing back. Green was so much bigger and stronger than him.

[quote="saintsRrising"]I would be dropping Gram before BJ. Just put BJ back in the backline, rather than as a contested ball mid where he is struggling. Alternatively...wing or HF.[/quote] Agree. Jason Gram has been down on previous form and looks like a couple weeks at Sandy might sharpen...

I will be sticking by my club. Been a member for 59 years and will not give up on them anytime soon. I have seen harsher years than this. Now is the time to get behind the club as a member and not be a front runner.

[quote="dcstkfc"]1- Gram- Receiver found out totally when there's no one winning the footy for him. Embarrassed to some extent by the likes of Savage and Suckling, who are still kids. 2- Siposs- A silver lining on an ordinary day. Created chances and slotted goals in high-pressure situatio...

[quote="Eastern"]In amongst all the doom & gloom of today comes the hope that we will smash the Dees next week.[b] GO SAINTS !![/b][/quote] Glad somebody else has some confidence in Ross and the team. We will turn it around within the next 12 months. This year is shot but wwait until 2...

[color=black][/color] Just because everything is not going right for the Saints everyone is out to batter them down further and having Saints followers doing this is no help whatsoever. If you are a loyal Saints member/supporter now is the time you need to step up and be supportive and encouraging. ...

[quote="RodKeoghsLoveChild"]This kid will be gold.[/quote][color=black][/color]

Siposs an Cripps are the only sparkle we have a present. Hope to see a few other guys get their chance in the senior side this year.

[quote="mullet"][quote="The Fireman"]well i'm past caring...the thing that really worries me is how many seasons will we be down from here? I feel a bit embarrassed for the players, they truly have hit rock bottom and have taken me with them. Time to tank bigtime if they haven't ...
