Ben Dixon's fall back position

Post: # 1738300Post freely »

Herald Sun reporting that he's taken over The George on Collins. Great to see he's got his mind on the job. Just a pity it's not on the job he's got with us!

Thanks for the heads up - I'll check with my Financial Planner tomorrow to make sure my portfolio has no interest in The George.

He's off to a bad start. Walking in the front door on day one he unexpectedly veered off and went through a window.

He better have good cleaners for the bathrooms if accuracy is any consideration.

"very part time".......ok so how much time is that then? It has been reported he has spent hrs and hrs with saints players this year developing their kicking for goal skills and not just forwards ( half the clubs list).

The St Kilda FC spoke very highly of him. He was working every day in the pre-season.

Agree he has got a life to lead outside football but the time spent with saints is possibly more than very part time. Have to laugh at some of the posts...said in jest of course...

Our yips have got better the last 4 weeks. Dixon appears to be making a difference.

They had to come good at some stage, is it fair to say that if they kick straight and a winning score against the Dees then we are back and Dixon should get a payrise?

Dixon has done to the Saints what Leadbetter did to some golfers, filled their heads with shite.


The Saints are under review, will it make any difference to the underachievers ?
