Still processing, what a win!
To come back from 29 points from the ladder leaders - who have owned us at Marvel for the last decade.
The team played as a complete unit. Every player on the field was bleeding for the guernsey and was hungry for a win.
Super proud of the boys!
That was the bravest win I have seen in a long time.

Best win since the 2020 Elimination Final.
Best home and away win since the 2015 comeback game against the Bulldogs.

Re: That was the bravest win I have seen in a long time.
Definitely one of the bravest wins today and a significant step for the younger players in the team.
For shear joy, I can't go passed the win against Richmond in home and away in 2017 when we won by over 10 goals. We were up by over 80 points at one stage.
I don't think Richmond lost a game after that and they went on to win the Grand Final

Yes, a surprisingly good win from what the OP recently demeaned as, amongst other things, “Just a shitty football team”.

A great win but you have to wonder where that effort and care has been for the remainder of the season.

As ex-president Peter Summers said:
“If we are going to be a contender, we may as well plan to win the bloody thing.”
St Kilda - At least we have a Crest!

I still don’t think a relocation would be such a bad thing. You can disagree.

Re: That was the bravest win I have seen in a long time.
It was a fantastic win. It shows that we have more player depth than we thought.
It shows that our players can "enjoy" playing together.'
It showed that (as with the Collingwood game) - if the players "buy-in" 100% to the gameplan - then the coaching is as good as it is at Sydney - or anywhere else!
Go Saints!
It is beyond me why anyone would raise the issue of relocating - this is a one way street for us - and there is nothing at the end of it except a big pit of lost fans. Anyone who says anything else about this topic, simply does not understand our supporter base - is an AFL Apparatchik - or comes from some alien place - that is not near Melbourne!
We must stay as a stand-alone club and endeavour to play as many finals as possible.
This is the way, Saints!

This is a team game and there is no room for individuals who think they are above walking through the fire.
