This was the Sweetest Victory!
Carlton is only one of 16 teams, but they have been the most successful VFL/AFL team over the distance. So, a win of this stature, our 12th this year and our 12th in a row against them, is especially sweet.
The never say die attitude of this current group is as good as I have ever seen from any team. There were plenty of mistakes and our backline was just too big, but yet again they found a way to win. A fantastic victory.

The former rich purchasers of Aussies best talent got the leveler of the salary cap and couldnt handle it. So they cheated and copped a long lull in their history that they hate.
Any time this lot lose to the Saints I am ecstatic. I am not a fan of the Bumbers but I hope they cream The cheaters too and have them fighting for 9th position again this year.
Midfield clearances and clear winners are needed to make an effective forward line.
You need to protect the ball handler to increase posession efficiency

spent a whole game behind a guy who bitched his way through the game about the umpires...
then spent a whole train trip home hearing about the umps....
They are bad losers......

You bet your a$%e we will take the 4 points. They can talk it up anyway they want, WE WON. We have the 4 points, we have 12 wins in a row and they STILL have not beaten us since 2001.........mick13 wrote:Let them have their moral victories.Enrico_Misso wrote:Despite most of the lucky breaks going their way they were calling it a "moral victory".

4 points tonight, 12 wins and 16 day break. GO SAINTS!!!!!!!!
I've already got no voice left.
Such a sweet, sweet victory after hearing such arrogance on talk-back radio all week from supporters. So many people giving me hell at work all week, I'm looking forward to work on Monday now.
I think we as supporters are glad of a week off as much as the players, just to get our breath back, especially after stressful games like that.

Re: This was the Sweetest Victory!
I really wonder about people who come onto anothers clubs board. They must have the worst life in the world. I suggest you grab $150 and go get a root.murph_u_ripper wrote:kalsaint wrote:For a home and away game this is about as good as it gets.perfectionist wrote:Carlton is only one of 16 teams, but they have been the most successful VFL/AFL team over the distance.

All i can say to this poster is....the sainters with their 'tragic' history of one flag by one point should not comment about the most successful club in the land till they have rectified the problems in their own back yard.
We , the mighty carlton footy club never 'cheated' as you put it. We simply refused to play by the rules of mediocrity- that is stoop to the level of clubs such as yours and be 'middle of the road' by stupid salary cap enforcements.
Will you win the premiership this year? History would say no way. I actually think you are a bit slow in the midfield and rely alot on Roo, whom of which will be safely held by either Scarlett of Lake, depending on who makes the Preliminary final to play against you.
Watch out for the blues, saints supporters... because U KNOW WE'RE COMMING, and had Houlihan kicked straight tonight, or Fev not missed those goals, you'd have been defeated.

My best & oldest mate & myself have been watching Blues vs. Saints since the year dot ... and never seen a contest with both teams Top 4 ... we came away saying it was the best contest overall we've seen factoring in the position of the sides and the closeness of it ...
Top night .. great win ... will prob see em in the finals

what the blues supporter is saying is their forwards are chokers under pressure in front of goals and fevola and houlahan are gutless weaklivered players under pressure.
it good he can acknowledge this weakness from carlton and until they get some forwards who DONT melt under pressure they'll keep giving away 4 points like that.
ebay more players from other clubs thanks.

It goes like this;
The umpires were against them.... because they got so close it proves how good they are and that they are going places... because they got so close it proves how shyte we are, and that we are going nowhere... and besides, if this and that and this had happened they would've won.
What makes it sooo sweet is that they thought they were going to win, they were giving us the bird and giving each other high fives!
Even though they never managed to actually get in front after we kicked our first goal.
Eat it scum.![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)

i was introduced to a carlton supporter at the bar afterwards who reckons they will improve and beat us in the finals at the mcg.
i told him they will need to because i don't think they can play better than they did last night.
all the same i think we need to be better in some areas to win the premiership.

Carlton are cheats.
Their captain is a mercenary (of and didn't the Carlton fans enjoy hearing that from me all night
). One even asked me how many "rejects" we had in the Saints team. Went very quiet when I announced to all the Saints fans around me a Carlton supporter had just confirmed that Judd was a reject
. What a tosser
Also get vey upset every time I thanked him for Goddard.
Their cancerous dead President should have spent his last days in jail.
Their current president is a dribbling moron.
Their fans are arrogant idiots.
Last night WAS the SWEETEST Victory in a long long time.
The faces of the Carlton morons behind me at fulltime was GOLD.
Especially when I smiled and said 12 in a row.
Oh what a beautiful morning....
Oh what a beautiful day....
I've got a wonderful feeling....
Everythings going my way.....
Eat s*** Cheating Carlton scumbags

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>)

5 prelims in 7 years. 40 wins from 49 games.
2009 and 2010 were 2 of the 5 best years ever by the St.Kilda FC.
Thanks for all your efforts Saints.
