Seems like a good attribute to me.

Now that I am old and know so much more, I know that I know so much about so little, and so little about so much.

I've said it before and i'll say it again. When you don't get on with the head coach and others it makes it hard to stick around. Just look at the Best and Fairest results for a hint. Tell me how exactly Lovett, Essendon's 2nd best player imo and definitely top 5, did not finish top 10 in Essendon's Best and Fairest. We all know who does the voting.
Anyway, it suits us and it's a nice fresh start. Welcome to the Saints.

Is he on 3 years at the Saints? Think Essendon offered him just the 2
Because unlike us they see the game through 2 eyes but once we recruit a guy we want them to see it through our eyes. Obviously he is now a top 5 player for the Dons. 4 weeks a go he was an overrated player. If we keep Bally he is a great player and if we lose him, which we will, he is finished as a footballer.milney044 wrote:I've said it before and i'll say it again.

Nope, i have always rated Lovett highly. In fact i had him in my All Australian side as a smokey. I believe he is certainly top 5 at the Bombers regardless of whether we picked him up or not.plugger66 wrote:Because unlike us they see the game through 2 eyes but once we recruit a guy we want them to see it through our eyes.

I don't really know what Ball has to do with it but whether we keep him or not i do value him, not in our top 5 but in our starting 22 for sure.

A truer statement has never been made. It's astounding how some have jumped on Bally - yes he's looking after no. 1 but he's a professional and the St.Kilda football club is a professional organisation. Supporters want their heroes to bleed red, white and black but that is just pure romance. He (Lovett) is now an employee of the St.Kilda FC and whether or not he bonds with the players is only important if it affects his performance on field.Because unlike us they see the game through 2 eyes but once we recruit a guy we want them to see it through our eyes. Obviously he is now a top 5 player for the Dons. 4 weeks a go he was an overrated player. If we keep Bally he is a great player and if we lose him, which we will, he is finished as a footballer.
I've never seen a bad St.Kilda player - that's just how they are.

I see Andrew Lovett providing what Xavier Clarke promised for so long but never delivered.Con Gorozidis wrote:i am genuinely excited about lovett. this is a good time to be a saints fan.
im expecting some seriously high class footy next year. we will be pretty much the same team but with added leg speed which we lacked and added depth which we lacked (but got away with because of a good run of injuries)
I also see Xavier Clarke having to deliver on his promise to Brisbane or Michael voss will quickly exterminate X's career.
Voss has already turned over a full one third of all players at Brisbane at his first real opportunity.
Unlike at St Kilda, X can expect absolutely no sympathy for injuries from Voss.
His job is to make Voss look good, it all about Voss at Brisbane and Voss is in a hurry.

I see you starting to identify the traits that make a fan.
We may yet succeed in turning you into a St Kilda fan, Plugger66.
