Was mentioned at the BnF the Saints intended at some stage to play their own VFL team out of Moorabbin.
Certainly seems to have worked for the whingers and the filth, and it'd be great to be able to watch a Saints side play out of Linton Street.
will not ever happen.
would need frankston to fold for it to happen and as bad as frankston are, a new grandstand has been built with help from brumby
Why would it be necessary for Frankston to fold?
well if as the post suggests in having a "saints" team in the VFL other than sandy it would need VFL consolidation.
VFL are not looking to consolidate any further teams that i'm aware of.
the OP article makes reference to st kilda without specifically identifying sandy and the confusion was born from there.
any idea that st kilda may have a VFL team other than sandy is proposturous.
the age article exists merely with reference to richmond and their extra-ordinarily poor historical situation of having the cricketers, the facts surrounding them finally having the opportunity of a semi-decent pre-season without the cricketers there and caroline wilsons own personal agenda of mixing the saints in there for extra credit on what is essentially just an article about her old mans tigers more than anything else.
as stated, the link there between "richmond" and "moorabbin" is as more slack than a desperately misguided harpoon from a japanese whaling ship.
to some people it's news. to others it's misrepresentation.
