Press conference at 10:30


While sad to hear it, it's not surprising and really gives us an opportunity to celebrate the greatest player to have ever represented the St Kilda FC.

Is this perhaps to 'counter' the potential spur that the Collingwood players will have this week?

Somehow I don't think it's something the club could put together within 24 hours to "counter" the Pies. I think it's more a case of good timing :) let's steal their thunder Saints!

There are freaks and freaks and Baldock was both of those.

I think it's perfect timing given the Collingwood situation.

If history is a guide, the Greening episode is probably due for a run in the Collingwood press to help divert attention from their shitty club culture.

Not sure, today is exactly 20 years from his debut so may have been already planned.

But

Yes could be and brought forward using todays date as a reason.

I hate saying goodbye to champions
and Harvey is the echelon
But I'm praying todays press conference is just to launch his book.........
Don't look - cos this grown man is going to cry :cry:


If everyone speeds, why haven't you been overtaken?

Sad to see him go - a good reason why we should go all out and get that elusive premiership this year!

Harvey has always stated he'd never hang up the boots mid-season...so I don't believe it. I don't WANT to believe it


When they created LENNY HAYES (in the shadow of Harvs) they forgot to break the mold (again)- hence the Supremely Incredible Jack Steven!!

i cant imagine st.kilda without harvey :( i dont want to either.

if this team is struggling for motivation, they must look at harves and give everything they have.

come on saints.

We all knew it was coming.
I just hope that tackle hasn't made the it immediate due to medical advice.

If ever there was a reason for EVERY Saint supporter to get to the game on Saturday night this is it !

Lets hope that it is NOT immediate. There are many passionate saints fans who are interstate or overseas or whatever who will do everything they can to get to see the great man one last time, and they may not be able to get to the G on Saturday Night !!
