Martin Pike would most probably be put in the same category as what Nathan Carroll is being put into...and he turned out to be a pretty reasonable player...4 premierships....
Let Nathan carroll do pre season with St Kilda and let the match committee decide if he's worth a punt or not...
He just may prove everyone wrong

Surely nuffy supporters are better placed to have the ultimate say in list management.... F*** meThe Saints return for pre-season training on November 17. It's anticipated Carroll, if released from Melbourne, as is expected, would train for two weeks with St Kilda before the national draft on November 29.
In that time, Carroll would need to convince the St Kilda leadership group he would be of value to the club.

If you are so serious about then please post the entire contents of Archie's e-mail as you did with your mate's e-mail.MilneyMagic wrote:Feel free to attack myself or my mate, it is just water off a ducks back.
He so strongly about this issue that he is willing to go to any lengths to make sure that it does not happen.
Below are some exerts from Archie Fraser's email back to him yesterday.
'I understand your concerns but let me reiterate that while the media are
a good source of information, they often misconstrue the facts.'
'I am disappointed that you have made up your mind without considering all the potential recruitment scenarios and gone ahead and attempted to lobby with media broadcasters before even hearing the Clubs side of the story.'
'I can assure you that I have absolute faith in my team and that the right decisions will always be made, and if that includes Nathan Carroll then it would be well thought out and every aspect considered.'
'There is a far better way to go about things than the way you have
approached this on this occasion.'
'I would appreciate it if you just backed off and allowed our Club and List
management staff to do their job.'
Also, he has been in touch with the producer of the good oil and there is a strong chance that he will be appearing in a segment on Friday. He wants all Saints supporters to listen and phone in with their feedback and thoughts.
Keep up the campaign...we can not let this happen!!!
Think Mark Gale, Robert Powell, Shaun Charles, Fred Campbell...we can not let our club slide back into the days of recruiting hacks from other clubs!!! We must move forward!!
Also, don't be so selective in your examples of recruits. Think Fraser Gehrig, Aaron Hamill, Stephen Milne, Andrew Thompson, Stephen King...

What a laughable idea.
Sending a petition to the CEO of a football club relating to a player with a chance of getting picked up.
I know, lets all petition to make sure Peake and Bevo have Steele Sidebottom as their first choice. Lets let them know that we will riot if hes available and we DONT pick him.
Or wait, why dont we just give Archie a list of player preferences that we like, and tell him to go and get them for us.
What a magnificent spud of a post.
