Hi everyone, This is Playon's wife. Thanks so much for the support, advice and encouragement you all gave him during his battle with cancer. I'm sad to have to inform you that he passed away a month and 2 days ago on Saturday 16th September at the Austin hospital. Our 2 kids and I were with him duri...

Hi Guys thanks for all the well wishes and hellos. Unfortunately I haven't been well, where I was walking to training for some exercise my biggest walk which is a struggle is to the letterbox or shed.The loss of being able to do things for myself is really hard to handle and I struggle to be positiv...

Thing about Bruce is that he wasn't really dropped for poor form. From what I saw it was poor form as his marking had declined as was his total disposal count. His last 2 games in total only added up to 5 marks and 14 disposals. Yes he was working hard, but he was off his game which equals poor for...

Its one of the questions I asked Richo the other day when I bumped into him. His reply was most definitely, well what else would he say, but there was an air of his confidence in the team. I have no doubts he doesn't think were a chance and if all the cards fall our way, why not. I also asked who he...

Thanks dragit

I have to tip in this one Saints by 66

Thanks for all the well wishes and support, You guys/gals are the best. Be assured I've read each one many times over, I tried to reply while I wan hospital but I deleted it 3 times by accident and gave up, thought it best to wait until I have a keyboard. I was never expecting this much support and ...

Well after getting ct scans last week, my doctor's prognosis is that I have cancer with 3 months to live with little chance of survival. I can't tell you how devastating this is for my family. To say that im on an emotional roller coaster is an under statement, at my worst I keep thinking of how my ...

We didn't spend much on Freeman, it was certainly worth the gamble, and although he didnt look like ever playing a game for us at one stage, that has somewhat changed. He's playing at Sandy. He's been out of the game for a long time so it will take him a long time to get back into it. Now more than ...

What a win .. I have to admit I didn't see that coming. I thought there was a chance that we could win by more than I tipped, But Would never of tipped us to win by THAT much. Well done Saints

Why because we want to try both young rucks out and see how the different styles go? Thats actually clever. Its a laugh how precious people are about certain players. Are we going for a flag this year and I missed it? Or do we still have a lot of experimenting to do. Me thinks the latter. We need t...

I'm OK with Stevens for Long. Dissapointed that Dunstan is out, but hope Sinclair goes well. Dissapointed that Paddy is not in the team, and surprised that Longer remains. Would you be ok with Stevens in for Dunstan and Sinclair in for Long? OK with Sinclair for Long, Sinclair has earnt his chance,...

Well we take on the resurging Hawks down in Tassie, their stronghold. The hawks have had a tough draw to start the season meeting Adelaide, GWS and Geelong in their first few rounds, So are they as bad as the ladder reflects? Most likely not, this is an important game for them to win to get their se...

It'll be the tackles from behind that drags him down and puts pressure on his knee that will be the worry for him. I wouldn't be expecting him to be doing to much run and carrying unless he has a clear paddock.
