Both are appropriate.

Our motto is: Strength through Loyalty. These players epitomise that.

Take note Luke Ball.

Make that two hands on his shoulders.

Should we think of Nick Riewoldt? There is every possibility that he will be remembered as THE GREATEST SAINT.........EVER !!


NEW scarf signature (hopefully with correct spelling) will be here as soon as it arrives !!

A certainty but only when his career is finished. Should the unthinkable happen, let's say for example.. the absolute unthinkable, so unfathomable that it is difficult to type... Riewoldt finishes his career playing for The Filth..... then what would we do?

Robert Mace. His old man owns Frankston.

I'd have Stan Alves pushing Joe McLaren down the stairs, with a plaque at the bottom reading
"And don't you ever come back into this club."
Would certainly remind players when they arrive for training each day that mediocrity isn't tolerated.

Plus action-like bronze statues always look great.


Clueless and mediocre petty tyrant.

Take him out to the back paddock and shoot him?

Thankfully it will never come to that but I agree that a statue shouldn't be made of a current player...

Bryan Mace certainly owns Frankston Park - he managed to keep the Saints out.

Poor old Saints had to go to Belvedere Park in Seaford to maintain the illusion that we are still going to "Frankston".

Let's pinch the pose on the NRL premiership trophy and replace with Baldock and Riewoldt.

Across the generations...one premiership captain to (hopefully) another.
