Be Prepared For Saturday Night

Post: # 1359156Post Buckets »

No matter what the law says.

No matter what the STKFC thinks.

No matter what we supporters think.


Saturday night, the club, and in particular Milne will go through a baptism of fire. If you think you have heard and seen it all, be prepared for a shock. Opposition supporters will give more to Milne than we have ever seen. Make your voices heard and each time the 44 gets the ball cheer as loud and with feeling make sure the boos and chants are drowned out!

I reckon Milne would be looking forward to it, and he'll kick 10 !

Except for the sanity nothing much has been lost.

Let's just hope that the AFL shows some leadership on this issue. Something they have FAILED to do for NINE LONG YEARS !!


NEW scarf signature (hopefully with correct spelling) will be here as soon as it arrives !!

Have had the feeling all week. Love the 44 but gee it's going to be hell on Saturday night. Well make the booing of Jobe look tame IMO.

Yeah, what did the AFL actually do when a senior coach a bused an opposition player with a verbal attack which included a huge accusation.

Opening bounce?

I hope they have added security. All it takes is one idiot in the crowd with too much alcohol to think he is some kind of hero.

And the headlines and talkback radio will just drum it up before the game.

I wonder if Luke Darcy and his mates will be as appalled as they were when the confessed drug cheat was booed against the WCE... There was genuine outrage and disgust... Lets hope that the media afford Milne the same level of support Watson received..

Would fans prefer , " Players threaten to strike !"
If Milne is not allowed to play this is what could happen , The AFLPA could possibly take action against the afl if he's refused the right to play .

The afl will do what they do best and bury their head in the sand. If he was at the filth, numbers or the plastic interstate clubs they would have said something by mow, but te expect them to help a saint out, you are dresming


I love this club

Buckets was about to say the same thing. I'm not sure I want to go, or have my baby with me.

I feel very uneasy. Sick.
Wonder how the sponsors will react.
I'm sure the club have it all under control.
Yet, very uneasy.

Not sure it would have fooled everyone but perhaps naming him as an emergency (and a late inclusion) would have taken some of the edge off him playing?

Just a gut feeling but wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't play ... and Nathan Wright comes in. Milne plays with Sandringham instead.

That way the club gets the media firestorm out of the way ... and makes the following week an anti climax when he does return vs Port.

I dont think that is happening unless they have a rethink tomorrow.
