Worrying time to bottom out with all the concessions going north. Thought we'd have another 2-3 years in is yet with another close grand final loss or two up our sleeve.

But we self imploded in extraordinary circumstances in a matter of 6 months and made just about every f- up in the book,coupled with Lenny going down.

Who can honestly be bothered sitting through another bottoming out phase. Crowds will be down to North melbourne levels. Hope the club has been wise with it's $$$'s the last two years,as we're going to need each and every one of them to ride out this storm

Pain is not something you have to get used to being a saints fan, you're born in pain. the last 2 years have just been a holiday from the pain, that's all.

concession doesnt really mean much... west coast have only been down for what 2 years?? and theyre starting to look on the up again... its how well you manage what you have.. and woosha has done a brilliant job(so far) even if they dont make the 8 theyre showing all the signs that theyre almost there

if we really are at that cross roads... then it comes down to how good ross is in this position

Funny. Nothing like a bit of dry humour to ease the pain of a loss :(

Very depressing night. The near-misses of 09 and 10 really come back to haunt during times like this as you start to wonder just how long it will be until similar opportunities will present themselves.
