Top Blokes

Post: # 1263584Post Con Gorozidis »

A lot has been made of the Saints players over the years but I think we can all say with confidence that Len-dog, Rooey and Seany D are just ripper blokes and probably the heart and soul of the club. One gets B & F, one AA and one takes a massive pay cut.
Proud to be a Saint today.

the world is made up of misconceptions


In Springfield, they're eating the dogs. The people that came in, they're eating the cats. They’re eating – they are eating the pets of the people that live there.

You would have to include a few others as well, namely Big Mac, Dal, Monty, Schnieds, Sammy Fisher, Kosi and there are others as well.
We have a very loyal, close nit group at our Club with a good bunch of young guys coming on.

He must have been young when he played for North. He is only about 21 now.

He did but Reiwoldt plays for the Tigers. As for the pay cut it was part of a contract signed in 2009 and has nothing to do with BJ.

His contract he signed a few years ago was front loaded so next year he gets 500k. A pay cut would be if he was contracted to a mill for 2013 but told the club he would gladly play for 500k.

B&F and AA awards would make you 'a good footballer', nothing to do with being a good bloke… I'm sure Wayne Carey got both and he's a chit bloke.



*coincidentally Lenny seems like a good bloke, don't know much about the other two… Andrew McQualter seems like a really top bloke.

True but other clubs , three years ago when he was at the peak of his powers, may have offered Roo a million a year including the final year being next year. That means he may have taken a pay cut to stay a Saint. In any case I have no doubt about Roo's loyalty to the club and place him up there with the best ever.

Jesus this thread is a far cry from a mensa meeting. Good job there's no IQ test to join Saintsational that's for sure.

Yeah I know;

I'm a kanava bloke.

I got my photo taken with my hero, Saint Nick, at the Crown footy finals launch last night. You're right, he is a top bloke :)
