Nick definitely needs to spend less time on waxing his pills and more time on improving his skills :lol:

Am coming over to Melbourne this coming weekend from WA and the way we are going Melbourne will beat us. I am so disappointed. Like a lot of us on here I have been a Saints fan for over 40 years. It is real hard work sometimes being a Saint. Hang in there. This year is shot, so definitely some players should be given farewell games and move them on. Unfortunately there are a few in the squad who will not get any better. We do have too many front runners.

Still plenty to see even if we dont win next week. Barracked for them all my life. Nearly 50 years. But there is more to life than football.

Enjoy your weekend next week but rug up, bloody cold over here :D

FFS there are some here that saw the Saitns win one game a season. 4 wooden spoons in a row.

You have been privileged so stop you whining. :roll:


Lance or James??

There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say, "Enough is enough." For me, that time is now. I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in <redacted>. Over the past three years, I have been subjected to a <redacted>investigation followed by <redacted> witch hunt. The toll this has taken on my family, and my work for <redacted>and on me leads me to where I am today – finished with this nonsense. (Oops just got a spontaneous errection <unredacted>)

I remember in the 1980's following the Saints and Subiaco when they both won on the same weekend. It was like a dream as I think it only happened once in 5 years.

Compared to then we are sitting pretty now. Old time Sainters will know what to do, the young ones who have been seduced by our recent success - hang tough :!:

Blake and Gardi were shocking today. Contributed nothing: if they weren't in the team next week we wouldn't notice the difference.

This is a great point, there are many old time Sainters who have suffered through very barren times, us youngsters, well some of us youngster-ish can make it through this to better times again :D

Yep every time I think I am never going to see a premiership I just look at Dad who is 83 and played with the saints. He saw 66 but played in the 50's for nothing and still hopes to see them win another. He still loves the club so if he can I can

This team is mentally shot. I understand why. Not an excuse. But they are gone between the ears.

I can't even suggest an answer to it.

i'm just absolutely broken to be honest.

My brand new five month son has a st kilda dummy which is the ONLY one that will help him settle - and you know what, I'm considering NOT inflicting this team upon him just so he doesn't have to experience what I have.

i need to let it all out before i punch someone in the face

what a pathetic, gutless effort today and i am absolutely disgusted in the lack of effort by the players. we are the laughing stock of the AFL, below GC ffs!
after watching Dawson today im ready to explode. it angers me we have such hacks playing for us. Dawson has to go along with Baker, Schneider, Kosi and Gram. Riewoldt doesnt have to just yet, but he better pull his bloody head in because hes playing like s***. talking about Roo, Gilbert has lot the plot. the whole team has turned into s***.
their making themselves look like morons, and letting us mmbers and supporters down.
Harden the f*** up St. Kilda!

I usually don't bag us out....but..... We looked tremendous in the first quarter, and then after some back-slapping, winking, patting each other on the ar$e, we went on to play one of the most disgraceful, lame, heartless 3/4 of football I'd ever witnessed.

I'm not posting any more negatives, I've seen enough already this evening :(

Joffaboy, do you remember when we did'nt win any games in 40 odd straight matches, yet we still never missed a game at the Junction Oval. Now those were tough times. Especially if you went to a school in a Collingwood - Essendon supporter dominated area.

Oh yeah to all the old sainters, congrats, must feel special. I first became a member in 2000, clearly i wasnt after wins. But i think us "youngsters" have the right to whinge every now and then.

the reasons to whinge may well increase weekly from now to seasons end..

At least we can now have a proper pre season......all those new players injected into the club will need all of it to have their flair negated..

what will be the ratio of rejects to youngsters in the off season influx...

You've got to be kidding, you have seen the best 5 years this club has put up in 40 years. Lucky you weren't around for the 80's you may have killed yourself.
