there is no guarantee that Judd will be fit and right either...we have seen how long these injuries can take, he could hardly run last year and played in the goal square for half the year.....its not certain that he will be right and he is in a s*** team with expectations high on his performance.... it will take him a season to work out Ackland jumps 3 seconds before the bounce

.....and now no cash from the pokies deal....

You're all clutching at straws I reckon

riewoldting2 · Sun 09 Dec 2007 9:44pm

yes the blues are gone in my opinion. they are about to have more trash to join the board in ahmed fahour. how the hell would the CEO of the NAB bank be of any use? they're a rabble

Oh When the Saints · Sun 09 Dec 2007 9:56pm

CEO of the Australian operations of NAB ...

Isn't he the guy who managed not to notice that several of his employees were stealing tens of millions of dollars from the business?

Cost them a fortune. Millions disappeared.

Seems like he is well versed in turning a blind eye to corruption.

Should fit in nicely down at Princes Park ...

I was employed by Vic. Arts Centre when Pratt was Chairman of the Board of Trustees.
Went to three staff meetings that he chaired /spoke at.
FWIW I thought he was an arrogant, misogynist, aggressive, up himself twat.
Should fit in nicely down at Carlscum.

Exactly, just the kind of bloke Pratt wants next to him in the trenches, someone who won't notice he's thieving millions.

How about being a bit more gracious to former Saint players, guys....trash talking about our players, former or not, who've spilt blood in the St.Kilda guernsy is ordinary.

He didn't take over until after the Foreign currency loss scandal. Frank Cicutto resigned as CEO as a result.

Has SOS defected to the Blues?

crap...the only blood hackland may have spilt belonged to blake when he jobbed him at three quarter time after black told him to go find his balls which he had left in his bag.....

almost correct...the dumb sht managed to get baker stitches after spoiling a (what should have been an easy) mark for Baker...might have been the same game as the blake bitch fight

The club was out of brown paper bags and thought direct debit was a simpler option?

Seriously, be a bit smarter and pick your battles carefully, General Custer.
