anyone sitting near the players at the game ?

[st_Trav_ofWA]

i just got off the phone with a bloke i work with who is went to last nights game (WCE fan) he reckons that he was seated near the saints players were and that Gardi was making a bit of an ass of himself cheering the eagles home , aparently a few ppl were not to pleased by this ... any one hear about or see this happen or is this toss pot just having a lend of me ?

[saintm]

Gardi was shown on tv sitting with Max, Michael Rix and one other who I didn't know. That's as close as I got to it, unfortunately.

[nabby7]

As if thats true.

i was sitting in the pckt near (2nd level) the WC cheersquad and thommo was sitting a few rows across.

saw him chattin to a few fans at halftime...

[Saints Premiers 2008]

considering someone like maxxy was with him i cannot believe that

gardi has made mistakes but noone is really stupid and immature enough to do so

if he wanted the eagles to win then why would he uproot his life across the country and play or at least try and play for a completely foreign club??

[milney044]

i highly doubt that. i sit a few rows in front of the boys and heard nothing for the eagles from my area. as if anyway, the boys dont show emotion at the footy and certainly wouldnt for the opp. team, no matter how close they are. i'd say your mate is havin you on.

In fact...Why would you even bother to post this rubbish. Its obviously not true.

[st_Trav_ofWA]

dont shoot me down im just asking the question from what my co worker said it sounds like it was a bit of a joke at first but then it started to get on ppls nerves but gardi didnt stop i dunno how much truth there is in it thats why im askng if anyone heard or saw anything

[Dal'sGal26]

We sit near them and didn't notice a thing.

[True Blue Sainter]

Sat about 20m from BJ. Seemed to be in good spirits and moving quite freely.. Said he should be able to complete a reasonable amount of pre-season work, with the aim to be fully firing by about Round 6-8

Geez do you believe all the bull s*** that your West Coast mates tell you?

same...... i was sitting near BJ as well, who i think was with a friend.

didn't notice him until i was walking back to my seat with my sister at 3/4 time n he was walking in front of us...... could see the frustration in the last quarter, and he left (i think to go down to the rooms) a couple of minutes before the end of the match.

just out of curiosity, where was gardy & co sitting??

team members not playing generaly sit back of social club seating area- aisles 19-21 somewhere.
(ps Unless aaron gets them into the medallion seats )

He can't have stayed away too long. Although all the other players had gone, he was still sitting in the players area (with a mate) and on the phone about 5-10 minutes after the match, with a great grin on his face and having a good old chuckle.

We commented at the time how bad it was/looked.

The technical term for this is: Your mate is taking the p*** out of you.

That is the difference between players and supporters. We support the club they play for the club but never learn to love the club unless they were Saints supporters before they were drafted.

[saintsRrising]

I think that there is a big difference between "cheering the eagles home" and laughing during a phone call post game...

[riccardo]

Sounds like a lie.

If not, I want him to pay us back what we laid out on him to sit on his useless arse all year.

With all due respect..... if you're not on the other end of the call, how would you know what's he's laughing at?

Isn't the man allowed to have a laugh?

I've seen players walk off the field from a losing team having a good old laugh with their opposition at the end of the game....

[Sainternist]

Who cares!

Fair point - perhaps his mate on the other end of the phone thought he needed cheering up and told him a joke. I concede.

you are talking about bj aren't you...not gardiner.....

[casey scorp]

Thought it was Gardiner, others thought it was Gardiner.

[Saintly_31]

BJ was sitting in the aisle infront of me. He didnt say much except u could tell he wasn't to happy with the umpires & some of kicks in the 3rd & 4th quarter. I got his autograph 4 the girl who sits behind me.
