Re: Match Sim 1 vs Essendon
Pencil in Bonnar for Round 1.
Reads the play well and is a beautiful left foot kick.

Re: Lockett 🆚 Dunstall
Both Great Full Forwards but I believe Plugger was the better comfortably. If you look at the players delivering the ball to Dunstall you had Judge, Platten , Buckenara, Eade, Wallace , Hall etc. We didn’t have those sort of players. In addition in Plugger’s first six years at the club we won the wo...

At the end of 1976 Jeans was done. He was coach from 1961, so that was 16 years in charge. They got Ross Smith to coach in 1977 and that didn’t work and he left after one year. 1978 was the year that could have been , should have been.

Just give me George Young at his prime roaming across half forward.
A forward line of King, Membrey and Young complimented by 3 of the following smalls ( Gresham, Higgins, Butler, Billings).

Re: The persecution of Robert Muir is the story football doesn't want to hear
On his day a brilliant footballer. Had 2 very good seasons in 1975 and 1976 when he played 21 and 20 games respectively. He and Syd Jackson were a couple of the early trailblazers for the indigenous population. I remember a game at Victoria Park in 1980 when a certain Collingwood player spat at him ...

Re: best 22 round 1
What is the fascination with Lonie being in our best 22.
He can't kick more than 35 metres, is not quick, can't take an overhead mark , his tackling is average and misses too many easy shots.
Am I missing something?

Re: Cooper - Bruce?
Best mark ever by a St.Kilda player would have to be Trevor Barker V Essendon Windy Hill Round 2 1979.
Trevor's knees were sitting on Denis Scanlon's shoulders. Worth the entrance fee that day alone ( We lost).

If Carlton and the Gold Coast can't get a priority pick with the mess they are in, then you would have to think that the priority pick is dead and buried for ever.

mcadam05 that is the 1972 Elimination Final video. George Young did not play in that game.
We played and beat Essendon in consecutive elimination finals ( 1972 & 1973)
George Young started with us in 1973 and his last year was 1978.

Absolutely brilliant footballer. Had a great left foot kick. Kicked 6 in his first final against Essendon in the 1973 Elimination final.

The new deal is supposedly a winner. According to the figures released by the club we should make an extra $ 200,000 approximately every home game. Over a season and 11 home games, then that is an extra $ 2.2 million coming through the door. However the club has also conceded that the handouts it re...

If we are looking at the team of the last half a century then we are talking about the years 1968 to 2017 inclusive. On that basis it can be argued that both Baldock & Howell should not be included as they both finished up in 1968, and thus only played one season in that 50 year period. In fact ...
