We need to be very carefull that we dont do a melbourne and delist,retire and trade to many of our veterans at once. that will just prolong our pain. The end of this year will be very difficult list management decisions that will need to be made. Four to five kids tops should be taken in the draft. No trading of our veterans, let them retire one club players. Our kids will be far better quicker if they play along side these great club servants.

Dawson is a different kettle of fish. He was a joke and had little respect amongst the playing group. He wanted a fresh start.

Think that last line is actually crap. he got married late last year and basically only Saints players there and also got an invite to Rooys wedding even though he left a year earlier. Why do people make up this stuff.

If it's crap then why isn't he still at the club. I invited people to my wedding that I can only take in small doses and I might have also invited people that can take me in small doses.

He's not at the club because fremantle offered him a lot more money and a longer contract.

Of course you're gonna leave for money, if you're not offered anywhere near market value... Do you blame him, and are you silly enough to believe most (if not all) would have done the same


Was a 300k per year difference in the contracts and 1 year in length (sticking point)

So 3.2M over 4 years vs 1.5M over 3 years

Come on, who would stay..... Average wage here I'm guessing is about 100k? We're not talking chicken feed

Who are you talking about?

The posts abover were about Zac Dawson, is yours?


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>)

Well you are an idiot for doing that. Everyone who came to my wedding was a mate of mine or my wife or were family. Have no idea what your first sentance even means.

Only because i continue to read your posts. Can you at least try to explain your first comment. Obviously you have never kept in touch with people who left a job for a better opportunity because you obviously think they would never leave because they are mates.

If that is correct, then congratulations to St Kilda FC for making a brave and correct decision to let him go.


*Allegedly.

I would try and explain it but I think you'd have no idea and plus I can't be stuffed.
