when adam was a lad we had trolls turning up ,
we used to take a break from bagging each other
and turned on them as a unit

maybe some trolls for tension release
could be helpful

There aren't any active mods apparently, hence it's knobsville. It's good for a laugh though.. the intellect is quite low, so the expectations should be on par....
Do they even have mods over there? I used to read it a lot a few years ago, but its an absolute tip now

Well he started in 2007 so I suppose that makes him a restricted Free Agent. So the question is should we try to match any offer they make?

I could probably scrounge up a fiver to put towards a four year deal :)
i reckon i could also put in a stuart diver...or do we let him walk and free up cap space seeing as ss is in a re-building phase?
Contract discussions have been put on hold till the end of the year .( will he stay or will he go ) ...if he doesn't want to be at saintsational due to better opportunities elsewhere who can begrudge him for that , there will always be a soft spot here for him , wrote his best stuff in 09/10 has been treading water since hasn't got over the grand final loses...a fresh start may do him good capture some of that form that made him number 1 ....

You make some good points felix but make no mistake; if p66 signs with BF it will be for money and money only :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:






But karma may get him cos I've heard a rumour that ASADA are sniffin round BF  :P

I think you should take a chill pill and just relax. Firstly IMO there is nothing wrong with this forum.
Out of interest, how long have you been a member?

From what I have read in this thread to date, the remarks on the good old days, and that there is nothing wrong with the forum are being made in the main by posters who perhaps do not know how thriving the forum used to be.

If you think now is good, you would have been postively orasmic a number of years back.

damienc wrote: There is a diverse range of opinion which is exactly what you want I would have thought.
Yes diversity is good and desired. However I do not see constant baiting and thread derailing on an over the top basis as part of that.

Etra spice has been part of the SS allure. But too much just ruins it, a bit like the time my brother first tried to cook a spicy dish and added a whole jar of chilli powder.

By the way, I do not want over moderation. However we currently have virtually no moderation, and have not had for some time. In such a void invariably some will test the limits, and in finding there are none, they just stretch, and stretch and stretch till you get a lot of crud like we now get from some.

If the Dons for example get done for Drugs, it will be in large part because they failed to have good Governance. This allowed a situation where if someone was tempted, that he could offend, and do it in a big way.

SS is no different at present. There is a lack of "Governance". It is on the whole left to posters to self-moderate, and that is why so many threads get trashed. You can trash a thread and there is no consequence, and indeed the lack "Governance", just feeds those that want to trash that it is ok.

Agree on that.

Hi bev

Stanley is already considered a core player by Scott, on fact he said he saw him as one of the defensive six in a recent interview. I don't need to help him out, he's already in there.

I don't profess to really know much about footy, it's just a way to support those guys that have been around a few years and gave yet to establish themselves in the best 22.

Nobody really qualifies this year to be honest, only guys like tdl, Roberton, lee, hickey but they are from other clubs.

I'll wait until the end if the year to see how the guys that will then be 20ish are looking. Bit embarrassed, it's just a bit of fun ;)

Jarryn for captain can be my campaign :)

What about Jimmy Webster? I think if his body holds up we see him play a couple of games this year and cement a spot possibly next year, more than likely the year after. I read that he's considered one of the best kicks at the club....And the boy has some serious wheels.

I don't post anymore for my own reasons. Still jump in to see what is going on all the time. When you filter through all the ego crap, there is still plenty to keep me entertained. One thing I don't understand, is posters putting other posters on their foe list yet constantly refering to said posters in their posts.

Does that make sense?
