I was delighted seeing the Crows beaten and beaten well....As far as old memories are concerned we should hate the (Brisbane) Lions for our loss to back in 1913.

Does Dr Spaceman count as a somebody ? I also went to Bentleigh West Primary 1963-1969. I went to Bentleigh West Primary 1967 to 1968 when we transferred to Melbourne from Brisbane. I've loved the Saints ever since and have never stopped following them.We transferred to Sydney in 1969.I never went ...

Thanks Big Carl

Has to be Baldock, and don't forget our current home ground is named after the Doc, "Doclands"

I agree with supersaints and saynta. I won't be watching.

Thanks Dave McNamara for the detailed reply. I may be of similar vintage to you! I lived on Centre Rd at East Bentleigh after moving from Brisbane in 1967. Doc was my hero and I used to run out onto Moorabbin at the start of the game in those days. I also saw the '68 1st Semi against Geelong (Docs l...

Question Dave McNamara, if Gellie and Duper were a couple of the best rovers you've seen (and I agrre they were great rovers)
how do you rate Ross Smith, also another great rover? Not having a go at you, just interested in your thoughts as an obvious long
time sainter fan

You keep visiting SS and reading opinions you don't like or agree with but you
read them anyway because they are fellow Saints Supporters!

Sorry for my fat fingers...should be KEEP DAL!

KKEP DAL!

Maybe we can send Jim O'Dea around to his house.

Tom Lee looks promising in # 9, could he be the "Lee Train" ?

mcadamo5 and bigred,
Thanks very much for posting,a great read of days gone by.
Carn the Saints....Mark

Maybe Watters with Malthouse as his mentor,either way, don't be sad cause 2 outta 3 aint bad

The problem is we have several players in the same number and other numbers without deserving players. #10 at the Saints is a good example Bill Mohr Neil Roberts Big Carl Spider Bill Mohr was an outstanding Full Forward in a very poor Saints teams in the 1920's and 1930's and was easily out best ful...

We all tend to rate the players we have seen, but way before I was born the Saints had a player called Harold Bray. In the late 1940's and early 1950's Bray was third in the Brownlow and 2nd a further 2 times. On one occasion he missed out by 2 votes. Naturally he was part of an ordinary Saints team...

and we can now increase the cirlce of the supporter base

Our history shows we spend a few years playing finals and many years in the wilderness. Happy for Ross to rewrite our history as soon as possible.

Anyone know which Saints player won the medal tonight,Milne perhaps?

how about Knightsy he's available.

point taken

and Tim Lane is a dick

As footy fans we all know anything is possible. High flyers can be beaten and underdogs can win. The only way to ensure a flag is to be in the Grand Final, and be in front at the end. Don't have to be the best team all year, just the best team on the day (Hawthorn 2008) or have a bit of luck and hel...

Thanks saints66au, we will get their early to get some good seats. We
usually get down to MEL for one game a year and end up on level 1 near the goals so it would be nice to try another spot. I like the sound of the "Moorabbin Wing" cheers Mark

Thanks pluuger66 and Go Sainters Go for your replies. We planned this trip earlier this year,when Hawthorn were not playing to well, we thought it was the pick of the games we could get to,taking into account our other commitments for work,family etc... Hawthorn are going all right now,but I suppose...
