Sensitive Saints data stolen - Police investigating

jonesy · Post: # 979835Post **jonesy** » Wed 01 Sep 2010 10:46am

In all seriousness,if police happen to find the culprits,and it is linked to a club (we all know which club it will be), should they be eliminated from the competition immediatly?

So not only does a punter have $500000 on us to win the premiership, but someone is desperate enough to commit a crime to steal information.

My confidence just went up

depends

if a club gave a employee a directive to do it then yes

If it is a employee of a club who thought it would be good idea and did it on their own accord then no.

But most probably isn't either. The computers were probably stolen that happen to have the data on them rather than the data was specificly stolen.

Pretty sure whoever did it just wanted to steal the computers etc

If the culprits read today's paper though, only then will they realise what they actually have.

How much of a game plan/strategy could you convey in writing that you wouldn't be able to see if you watched us play?

Yet we still made top 4 this year despite EVERYTHING that has been thrown at us both off and on field. They can throw the whole freakin' kitchen sink at us this year and we are STILL going to win it.

Last year was just a bit too easy going for my liking. No dramas, no injuries - it was smooth sailing and not what we are accustomed to.....LOL

The Saints like a bit of drama and intrigue to keep them on their toes.......

If we need notes to remember how to play our brand of footy or how to beat the Cats, we're in a lot of trouble.

Over the last three years I'm fairly certain we've become well aware of their strengths and weaknesses.

Storm in a teacup.

Typical media sensationalism.

This will have absolutely no bearing on Friday's result.

I wouldn't think to much Matrix, surely Ross and the other assistants would take their laptops home of an evening....I mean, they do have laptops don't they

gringo · Post: # 979898Post **gringo** » Wed 01 Sep 2010 12:02pm

the real issue is wether they can get new computers ready for friday. If we go in with mini whiteboards and some magnetic names we may struggle a bit.

That would take a matter of hours to purchase computers and setup the software.

This is 2010.

Also routine could be interrupted. As Ross has said previously we're big on the routine. These days players have videos of the opposition where they can work out their moves, patterns etc.

If you're used to every tuesday sitting down and watching the plays and working out your stategy so you can train to that effect on the wednesday, that could be the pain in the arse.

Wasn't sure, given it's reportedly 'third world' down there

I'd be pretty confident all the top secret match day stuff for Friday night would be on Rossy's...

exactly
but theres nothing in it and its a storm in a teacup

win or lose , its still a big deal imo

Ross deserves a freakin knighthood for getting us to top 4 after all the crap he and the team have had to deal with this year.

markp · Post: # 979923Post **markp** » Wed 01 Sep 2010 12:23pm

If you read the article carefully you'll notice it's long on speculation...

Victoria Police last night confirmed it was investigating but refused to elaborate on the items stolen.

St Kilda coach Ross Lyon is understood to be furious about the security breach.

While neither the police nor the club would divulge details of what information may have been on the computers, a source close to the club said it was "football sensitive".

This could include confidential player medical information, opposition analysis dossiers or details of the Saints' game plan.

Could all be relatively negligible.

No Panic. It will only even things up a bit more.

Not only the coaches, but the players too would know their game inside out.

What could you read in a Geelong analysis that you wouldn't already know if you were a coach or a player also given the fact that they're our direct rivals for a flag and we've met and prepared for them in a GF.

"Ablett: quick, evasive due to core strength, coral rather than tackle.

Steve Johnson: highly-skilled, sore right hand, break it."

The only thing we should be worried about is if the computers have info that proves we've been cheating the salary cap or if we've been secretly running an underage brothel out of Moorabbin.
