Agree with grumpyone none are required. Some good, young kids to compliment the rest of our list, a good pre season, a great run with injuries and a bit of hard work and we'll be well on the way.

IMO this whole event is another example of our football club (including the supporters) sabotaging itself in its quest for the ultimate prize.... Yes RB has his faults (don't we all) and he has made some silly errors at different stages of his journey as president of our club but in many ways our cl...

With the quality of player we would be asking for our first pick a Melbourne or Carlton could deal direct with the eagles and offer them a player as well as one of their top 5 picks.

Agree totally. Our Pick 9 is nothing special. I cannot believe the assumptions being made about the power of our Pick 9. The value of 9 in trading terms is very little.

Interesting question gazrat. If not St.K then who? In hindsight I realise I must like the drama that you get with the saints, cause there's always something to read about. I guess its just one of those childhood choices that you make. My family are all carlton and I had to be different!

I also believe we need a change; but before this new group starts going on about having all the facts they need to get their facts straight first. A quote from the FACTS page: In 2006 St Kilda coaching group was the 4th highest paid of all clubs yet we had 16 less staff in our Football Department th...

It seems our biggest problem this year has been our inability to finish off games and/or play four quarters. There have been many games which we were in winning positions that we lost this year as a result of an inability to play out 4 quarters. Given that we have had so many players below peak fitn...

Isn't john Worsfold a Chemist?

There is no doubt drugs like coke, speed and ice are performance enhancing, just watch a raver with no fitness level whatsoever dance for 8 hours straight like a maniac without stopping once :D . If you watch the footage of Ben Cousins on the podium after the GF last year, I swear he was flying. I e...

They seem to have Jones rated pretty high from what i've heard RL and a few others say. I agree, I'd take Thommo anyday

Nah, i'm sure it was a wednesday.....lol
I do think, however, that it was in April.

Does anyone know what day the St.K FC was officially founded??
I would greatly appreciate any info I could get on this.

Jolly would have to be a lot better than any of those mentioned. And, like you say AE, he's not injury prone like some of our other ruckmen.

If only it were simply a matter of positive vibes. You must be a relatively young supporter: the past decade (if you include the 1997 GF), has been far and away the best one for the club since the late 1960s-early 1970s: notwithstanding the short and dreadful regime of Terrible Timmid. More importa...

Of course Collingwood will win tonight and we WILL win tomorrow. How about some positive vibes for a change. I am pretty new to this forum and the thing that is sooo glaringly obvious to me is the amount of negativity that exists among our supporters. Its exactly that mindset that has kept us on the...

We'd be fooling ourselves if we believed that there wasn't at least one player at every club who was using recreational drugs in some fashion. Its a massive issue and not a new one either. One must ask the question....how did Gary Ablett fly so high in his playing days??? Especially given what trans...

No need for self promotion here. i have better and more productive avenues for that!

My bro played for the Box hill Hawks for a number of seasons and at the time (from 01-04) said that there were a stack of players using all sorts of stuff. On a number of social outings he was exposed to a lot of different things from players on the Hawks senior list. He told me about this years ago...
