Glad they all these saint's ferals weren't sitting near me. I don't think I could have handled it on top of the game. I was M50, but towards the front in Row K. There was one pies fan by himself in the row in front of me and along a few. I can't remember him other than when he sat down though, so h...

If we want another crack at it next year we need to have an excellent trade period, and if we are to pick up recycled players, they must have quality, not second graders, from second grade clubs (Peake, Pattison). My wish list would be: - Ready made ruckman such as Cox or Mitch Clarke - Inside midfi...

I know it is still raw after the GF loss, however i believe if we are to keep our so called premiership window open, a few big calls need to be made. We have a few players who have performed really poorly in the past 2 or 3 GF's and even though a few of these guys are new at the club, the question h...

True but that doesnt mean they cant return to the club.

Yep agree

Brett Peake's contribution to the 2 GF's = 2 collingwood goals

Good find, looks that way. Real shame, has been the heart and soul of the club over the past decade and would of been great to see him get a premiership. Joins long list of saints who bled for the club and left without a premiership

Never watched 97, 09 and don't plan to watch yesterdays. What's the point? It's bad enough turning on triple M and hearing the replay of the commentary

Still scratch my head as to how Mini gets a game every week, so he is in the team for his tackling pressure? Don't think i saw him hold one single tackle in both the grand finals. List clogger IMO and with Peake may have played himself out of a future at the saints after the 2 very poor GFs

Was sitting in M50, and this absolute knobjockey of a collingwood supporter in the row next to us kept getting up in the aisle and dancing in front of us in the 3rd quarter when we were obviously going to lose. Pathetic sh!tful disgrace of a human being. My only consolation was knowing he probably s...

Went last year when they played their guts out, but after yesterday, ill let them take their big pay packets home and console themselves.

Agree, it's just such a long way back now. All those games at etihad stadium (on that note, why can't we get more than 2 MCG games in the H&A season !!!!!). I think i'm not going to compromise my relationship with the gf any longer and ill go to less games next year... Why would i go to every ga...

Agreed, its one thing to get a player with pace, however he is useless if he lets you down with skill. Example- Brett Peake, yes he is fast but he was exposed in the biggest game of them all, costing us 2 goals in 2 GF's with shocking disposal. If we are to get somebody with speed, they need to be a...

first quarter i think Ross said, a fractured ulnar bone

Heard Ball interviewed on triple M after the game and he sounded genuinely humbled and said he wasn't sure how to feel. Look i'm as pissed as everyone else he is now a premiership player for the scum, but i think he handled himself pretty well

We were absolutley thumped by a better team today. IF Gilbert had've kicked straight it may have been a different story, but NR went missing when we needed him most. It shouldn't have been up to Gilbert. To watch Kosi shirk a confrontation with Harry O'Brien was an absolute disgrace. Straight throu...

I have found it very therapeutic to come on here and discuss all things StKilda. Personally i find it good to come on in the real dark times, like tonight for example, like minded tragics come on and discuss home truthes. I remember coming on after the 2004 prelim loss to Port Adelaide and it really...

Agree, most improved player at the club and would have to be close to most improved in the AFL, is probably our first defender picked every week now

He spoke well. He makes a lot of sense,and I'm glad he says we need to find some talent. Interesting that he brought up young Winmars name in bringing him through next year. Must think he's a bit of a prospect This time last year I just wanted the same group of players fast forwarded to now to get ...

Heaps of empty seats at the top of the MCC, such a shame really when so many saints fans couldn't get to the game (half their luck in hindsight)

would be an ideal pick up. It showed today how much we struggled in the ruck

thanks for the link, interesting comments from Ross, very measured, sounds from the presser as if David Armitage is in Ross's plans going forward. Happy to hear

I am disappointed in the supporters leaving any time before the boys left the ground. I know what it's like to be a the G and hear the final siren go, I was there last year. But the players don't just give up at 3/4 time and not come back out on the ground, they stay until the bitter end, so should...

I know that the general feeling is we may have blown our chance in terms of winning a GF with this lot of players. But i think we just need to tinker with the side slightly and we will be up and around the mark again. A quick midfielder (maybe Tambling), an experience ruckman (similar to what pies g...
