I was sent this email by a very jealous Collingwood supporter, now I need the assistance of the readers to help me formulate an answer which will really hurt him.
He tried the samething last year but was truly floored when we beat thim in the finals....boy did I give it to him.

Thanks guys.

I wouldn't be bothered with them. What ever you say, they'll still rub their historic glory in your face. It drives me crazy especially when, since we defeated them in '66, they have won the same amount of flags as us. So who friggin cares about their flags really. They drive me insane!
Lets just hope we can beat them again in the finals and you can rub it in once again.

just tell him one is the best number and to stop being a tosser

[Skildir]

Yeah, that 1897-1903 period is the most important in the VFL/AFL history, nothing that has happened since will alter the deep and lasting impact of those seven years.

Sure, in 2009 St Kilda is on top of the ladder, having already beaten Collingwood by 14 goals in what turned into a glorified training run but I reckon even during that game the players and the coach were thinking about the events of 110 years ago.

Collingwood have a prestigious history but it all happened before most people were born and now, with massive amounts of money, the best stadium deal in Melbourne and a draw so favourable it's comparable to the Brisbane/Sydney salary cap concessions, they're still duds.

And their coach is twit

And their President is a dribbler

And St Kilda may have been crap for a long time but I'd still rather follow them than Collingwood / Carlton / Essendon or any of the others even if we never win another premiership.

[Selhurst Saint]

1 flag in the last 50 years, the same us.

enuff said.

[GrumpyOne]

Who cares about statistics.......... just kick him in the nuts anyway.

just 3 words - strength through loyalty

One great thing about being a St Kilda supporter (especially from the country) is that meeting a fellow St Kilda supporter (except at the footy of course) is exciting. Because there are so few of us out there - its a rare thrill. Granted, its a pretty lame thing to get excited about but -

The same couldn't be said for Collingwood, Essendon and Carlton supporters. They ahve so many supporters, when they meet another one its just like "well of course you suport them, who else would you support?"I think I prefer being in the minority.

When someone tells me to "come back to them when we've won another 15 flags" (You know who you are, Barry) my reply is Ã

[felixleo]

Tell him they could have had the beginnings of a good side.
2001 draft pick 11 Richard Cole pick 13 Nick del Santo
pick 27 Tom Davidson pick 37 Leigh Montagna

2003 draft pick 17 Billy Morrison
pick 32 Brayden Shaw
pick 35 Brent Hall pick 55 Sam Fisher

2005 draft pick 23 Ryan Cook pick 33 Sam Gilbert

Also I find heartwarming the story of Leigh Matthews being sacked from the filth in 95 and going on to coach the triple premiership with Brisbane twice over the filth. (as bruce says 'delicious')

I am sorry but is this a joke? A Collingwood supporter who can form words and sentences?

What a strange world we live in..

[perfectionist]

Yep, 1966. Shuts 'em up quick smart.

[degruch]

The Saints have only one premiership which took a VFL record of 67 years to achieve.

This one's confusing...isn't the longest gap between premiships currently the Swans (73 years)? Of course, we've got to wait a couple decades to top that one, the Bulldogs a bit less. Of course, he might be talking VFL instead of AFL...being such a nostalgic guy.

I think he means we took the longest to win a flag so far.

[Russman]

Our premiership in 1966 is more famous than all theirs put together

[OneEyedSainter77]

Also this might be off topic but it was actually 69 years.

Meh. We've won one more recently then the Bulldogs...what does that prove. Anyway, he's obviously a d**khead, so why would you even bother...it's time to point to the scoreboard.

PS: Yeah, sure...1 point, but we followed it up with an absolute balltearer against the Blues in round 6 of 1899. I'm sure he remembers the delayed telecast.

I think the saints were excluded for a couple of years during WWII.

[felixleo]

PJ "pressgang' how old are you? At least you didn't say Shanghai.

[Dan Warna]

tell him congratulations...as one of 10% of the collingwood fans who can read, write, have the majority of their own teeth and are currently or previously not been in jail, he can consider himself one of the truly elite that support his club...and leave it at that
