Re: Our Club Crest

As a passionate Saints supporter, I too feel that the corporatisation of our game has lead to the demise of aesthetics of our club jumper. Having suggested to the St Kilda Football club several years ago about the introduction of a heritage round to be played at least once where every year. Every c...

Re: Our Club Crest

I couldn't agree more. And noooo it isn't an old person mentality!! I'm 28 and I think our best jumper was the early 90's. I agree that graphic designers shouldn't be messing with our logo. Saint supporters need to take more pride in what there team wears. It's a representation of our club on the fi...

Re: Why 4.40?

The old tradition of the Saturday 2pm match is long gone now. It's all about weird times to suits the television networks. Not to mention, fans have become too soft to attend so they subscribe to Fox Footy instead. But could the AFL please GET RID of Monday Night Football. Worst copycat idea EVER. ...

Re: Why 4.40?

Answer: TV ratings.
Bring back the 2:10 time slot at Waverley Park!
We should makes some money at the game for once ;)
Ps, 4:40 is probably the worst time for a footy match, especially on as Sunday.
I prefer to be home personally watching games from a by gone era.

Re: How many more games will we win this year?

I think it's a good year to experiment with players.

Re: How many more games will we win this year?

I recon we need to play this card carefully....Tank :p haha If we are gonna end up near the bottom., why not just throw players around and get priorities..? And that way we can get some quality draft picks and load up on attack for finals in 2018 or whatever year they think we have a chance at the h...

I'm saving a bottle of Jonny walker blue for when we crack it. (hoping) But I have to say I'm a pessimistic about the future.. I'm hoping we can achieve ultimately a successful culture when we can build a strong team like Geelong & Hawthorn and stay up there for a great period of time. I feel li...

Re: Welcome new members !

A few veteran posters do like to lay bear-traps for new members.

Re: What's with our slow starts?

Unless AR addresses this, we will be regularly losing by 5 goals min. We will be regularly losing by a 5 goal minimum whatever AR does. Get used to it. 13 players under 50 games, most of them under 20. That's loser talk. If we start to accept losses and beltings then we will inevitably inherent a b...

Re: Lets be honest, Rhys Stanley is just an athlete

I think he suffers from not wanting to get in Riewoldt's way… That's a kind way of saying that he has very little fire in the belly. Not necessarily, I'm sure Billings doesn't want to get in (a giant of the game) Riewoldt's way either. Some guys don't have the anger gene, but they can still make go...

Not sure if it was you Con that said that Rhys needs to be punched in the face to fire him up but there's not enough agro from him. If he tried influencing the game and just absolutely crashed a few packs or ran his opponent into the ground by repeat leads and demanding his team mates kick the foot...

Re: Lets be honest, Rhys Stanley is just an athlete

He has all the tools but I seriously doubt he will ever become more than a 'C+' grade player. We need to draft 2 elite tall forwards in the next 2 years or else we will really be stuffed when Rooey retires. How do explain the his other games then? How does Stanley mark it when they do not kick it t...
