Fisher was a member of the Saints team which lost by 12 points to Geelong in the grand final, but the 27-year-old says the team has the drive to bounce back from that disappointment.
"We came so close, but didn't quite get there so I'm sure the boys' burning desire will be greater than ever," he told AAP.
"We were a hungry side last year and that probably makes us even hungrier to go one better next year.
"I think our young guys got back on Monday, they started their first day, and the guys with over five years playing experience start next Wednesday so we're all looking forward to getting back."
Although the article was dated Tuesday 17 November, I think Fisher was referring to Wednesday 25 November for the return of players with more than 5 years experience.
Chips but no Fish, a bit like St Kilda's Clams fish and chip shop.
Seems that whiting has suddenly become scarce and expensive so they rarely have any now.
I can have my chips but not my fish.

I'd rather players wouldn't sell the club's 2010 motives based on the pain from the season just passed. It's exactly what the Pies and Dogs are doing and this whole "the pain is our hunger" is starting to sound like a broken record.
If they are training outdoors at Dendy Park then they can hardly close it.

Pies and Dogs are like toddlers with a scratch, they only think they are in pain because they have never experienced the real thing.

Yep, its been the same thing for the last 5 years.
In the last 12 years, only Carlton in 99, Melbourne in 00. Port Adelaide in 04 and 07, and Hawthorn in 08, played in just the one Grand Final. All other teams in the last twelve Grand Finals played in at least two consecetive Grand Finals. Lets all hope the Saints can make it at least two in a row.
The biggest factor, in addition to the mental fitness of the group (ie. the keenness to maintain 24 months of 110% intensity) will be the off-season fitness of the guys.

Just woeful.
Agreed.
Lance or James??
There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say, "Enough is enough." For me, that time is now. I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in <redacted>. Over the past three years, I have been subjected to a <redacted>investigation followed by <redacted> witch hunt. The toll this has taken on my family, and my work for <redacted>and on me leads me to where I am today – finished with this nonsense. (Oops just got a spontaneous errection <unredacted>)

Always hated it.
Now that Leigh is gone he might now claim Fish.
Maybe he can go from chips to the equally witless, well probably every nickname in football.
And while we are at it why can that American golfer have his nickname up on the board.
I am sure he wasn't christianed "Tiger".

Who's had surgery? Who gets a full pre-season?
It's critical.
Pretty much agree.
Did Goddard have work done? Gardiner? Know Kingy did. Other suspects would be Milne and #23.
