Who are , in your humble opinions, the worse St.Kilda players, the ones we couldn't wait to be delisted, the ones that you feel you could have been better than.
This should be interesting.


Except for the sanity nothing much has been lost.

Don't get me wrong 3rd g s. Good thread. Just waiting for a current player to be whipped again. :idea:

Cain Ackland was a big one for me. Fiora was another.

Plapp was another.

Yep doesnt matter how much they tried when they played for us but once they leave it seems they are fair game.

Are you losing your sense of humour?

It seems that some are fair game even whilst they are still playing for us.

Well I wasn't sure, because you're annoying sense of sarcasm appears as strong as ever.

I was a naive teenager at the time, but there were two rumours about Stewart that I still remember.

One was a joke that he only played well once he had been primed with a fews drinks of beer.
The underlying suggestion being that he was a drunk.

The second was far more serious.
Alan Jeans the coach at time was a policeman and was called as a character witness, a role he did not like.
In particular, court cases that no-one wants to even be associated with.
The cases were the sort that those found guilty of still deserve to be stoned to death.


Can anyone confirm or deny these.?

I think you'll find that there were a couple of celebrated cases, including 1 involving a trffic incident in the CBD.

As I recall, the cases seemed to be more of unusual behaviour rather than anything really untoward.

From Wikipedia (and take that as you may)

Just a few weeks into the season, Stewart quit the club, citing a heart attack. Speculation was rife that he had actually suffered a nervous breakdown, a view that was supported by the fact that he had been charged by the police (under the name of Ian Cervi) for exposing himself to daytime shoppers in Glenhuntly Road Elsternwick, when parked opposite to the Elsternwick Post Office, but it is certain that he quit before he was sacked.

That was when he was Carlton coach in 1978.

Does it matter? the heading says choose a team of people we have delisted and i think this guy is on my list of players that should never have gotten game. Whether i saw him or not... i answered the question

So living in Brisbane is a negative? How's the weather down there?

I like it here, i get to see the games... I can travel down, but you are still stuck on shitty winters mate

I've heard that when Stewart and Baldock first came to the mainland from Tassie, Doc would keep an eye on Stewie when they went out to parties because he had a tendency to do that sort of stuff.

So as soon as Stewie started to show a few signs that he was on the way, Doc would slip a mickey into his drink that would then make him pass out on a couch and nip any potential 'public disgraces' in the bud.

Not sure if that's true but it's pretty interesting.
