Thank you SA Sainters!
G'day colleagues! Well that was a heartbreaker of a footy result (to say the least) I've had the chance to have a nights sleep, and the pain is still there, although diminishing in its intensity. I always try to gain some positives from EVERY day, and yesterday's "saving grace" for me, was the warmth of the welcome given to us by SA Saints supporters. It was nice to catch up with folk at the pre game function (well done to the organisers!) I managed to spend a very pleasant time in conversation with Noddy04.
It's going to be nice to see family and friends again in Melbourne. But my memories of SA Sainters will abide! Good on every one of you!

Re: Thank you SA Sainters!
Dave I want to dips me lid to you too Sir !
Your passion that is backed up by loyal support travelling over the countryside is to be commended !
StKilda Football Club and it's members appreciate your undivided support !
I'm hoping very soon I may too have similar free time and the fruits of working life to do likewise.
P.S remember that beer at half time next week.![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)

Yes, mate, it's always an experience seeing the boys play interstate. I've had mixed fortunes, saw them beat West Coast at Subiaco in 2010. Was at Moron Park in '04 (V Port) and THEN in 05 when Harves ripped the crows a nice new one!

You know, colleague, if I was driven to follow this club purely by results and expectations, I'd have given the job away YONKS ago! It's the good friends, the laughs ( sometimes through tears!) meeting SO many different folk from SO many differing backgrounds that gives me SO much joy!
To hell with being obsessed with results, life's short, I say: " grab it by the Henry Halls " and LIVE it!

Re: Thank you SA Sainters!
Going ok for an old fellah thanks.
Dave, we will be in the Victory Room after the game for sure.
I'll look out for you there. It will be great to catch up and have a beer.
You been a staunch supporter of our club.
That goes without saying though as you are a StKFC member. They are of a particular character.
I really related to this paragraph in Greg Baum's recent article on Nick.
"As best as one man could, Riewoldt shaped St Kilda. In turn, he was shaped by the Saints. For a club with so little success to brag about, so few laurels on which to rest, they inspire a staunch and singular loyalty, among players and fans."

I've enjoyed following your posts on your travels to the away games. It has me dreamin' of my time, which is coming soon.
I can't wait to have the freedom to do as I like.
See you soon. Go Saints !!!
