Re: Sen saying Milne will retire next week
Probably pressure from the AFL on the club a few weeks ago.
Possible negotiated outcome: play the last few this year and let HIM announce it rather than cut him loose now and risk legal action.

Re: Sen saying Milne will retire next week
It's been wonderful watching Milney over the last decade and a bit. He's the best small forward of the modern era; a St Kilda champion. ![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)

Why? he is an integral part of our team and is leaving too early.

Yeah, it's going to be really tough next week watching part of our core 2004+ team take the field for the last time.Milne wrote:Been my favourite player for a long time. Absolute champion and I'm shattered to see him go.

Re: Sen saying Milne will retire next week
Too early... He's 33??
Having said that.... The best Small Fwd ever at StK and one of the best in the AFL... Not bad off the rookie list....
And he's meant a lot more than just his goals at StK

Re: Sen saying Milne will retire next week
Gee it will be weird next year without tip rat, Blakey and Kosi. Sad day for the saints
I though Milney could have gone for 1 more season and with such a young list his experience would have been valuable

I love this club
Re: Sen saying Milne will retire next week
No I don't
He kicked 4 today, in an 8 goal win.... I would suggest most games we win by 50 points, he would figure predominantly
He's lost pace.... And has had an average seasons... Not withstanding the allegations
If he didn't retire, he would have been delisted.
Great servant, good clubman... But time was up

Re: Sen saying Milne will retire next week
That explains why every Saints player on the field went to him after his last goal. Really sad to see him go, but I suppose the last thing we need while we're rebuilding is an ageing, mercurial small forward. May as well stick a kid in that spot next year and see what happens.saintbrat wrote:Scott watters also said he anounced retirement

Maybe Milne can make guest appearance in the rooms when we win.fingers wrote:Who will lead the song?
Better hand it over to someone.
Suspect won't be needed too many times next couple of years!

Jack(Steven) to be new song leader. Or maybe Tom Curren. Looks pretty self confident. Maybe the new Yapper.

Re: Sen saying Milne will retire next week
Tremendous guy with a tremendous record.
274 games puts him 6th on our all time list.
572 goals puts him 4th on our all time list.
Amazing stats for a small forward.
Few players have given more pleasure to watch than Milney.
I hope they find some sort of role for him.
Would be tremendous doing past players functions, MCing functions etc. as he is heart and soul.
