LOL

Well done Sainterone..you were in teh Victory Room post-game as well I assume

Sainterone · Sun 07 May 2006 12:17am

No - not there today.
was it mentioned?
lucky guess.

Anyway here is a Thommo Q given he got to the 200 today.

Back in the late 90's Thommo and Harves used to rack up heaps of possies each week.

Thommo's all-time best is 36 (I don't think he spent much time on the bench that day). LOL

What round / year was this effort of Andrew Thompson's?

-if ya knickers are that knotted-
Collingwood player John Greening got knocked out in a game v the saints in 1972, how long was he unconcious for?

riccardo · Post: # 208199Post **riccardo** » Sun 07 May 2006 9:56pm

The Clubs book reports a full 24 hours.

Sainterone · Post: # 208882Post **Sainterone** » Mon 08 May 2006 9:29pm

I thought it might have been a couple of days?

saint66au · Post: # 208885Post **saint66au** » Mon 08 May 2006 9:36pm

Ask any Pies fan..he was unconscious until 1977

Thats a disgrace having that picture there and making light of it, no wonder we win a wooden spoon every 4 years on average with supporters like you lot

saintsRrising · Mon 08 May 2006 11:50pm

I think that this is in pretty poor taste....as are the supposedly "comical" replies.

luckysaint · Tue 09 May 2006 12:22am

gone a bit over the mark

saint mite: Don't be an ignorant fool.

This player's career virtually ended after this incident. Very poor taste and VERY STUPID!!

Marchin' In · Tue 09 May 2006 12:34am

That's absolutely shocking, saint mite. I have never, ever bagged one of our own but you deserve it posting a picture like that.

Grimfang · Post: # 209034Post **Grimfang** » Tue 09 May 2006 12:49am

Don't even know where to begin with that question, Saint Mite.

Incredibly poor taste, and that goes for any comedic responses as well.

Lift your game, son!

Sainterone · Post: # 209037Post **Sainterone** » Tue 09 May 2006 1:26am

Have a go Ric.

Let's move on folks.

There are plenty of posters on this forum who might find the photo distasteful. However, there are also plenty of posters who were not born in the 70's (or even 80's) and would not have heard of John Greening and would not be aware of the story - I'm guessing the mite falls in that category.

Give saint-mite the benefit of the doubt thanks.

Settle the hell down guys gees.

Over reaction and a half.
Im sure no offence was meant, she wasn't taking the piss out of the incident.

The picture is removed, now move on.

Calm down FFS.

Maybe I should just go ahead and ask a question -

There is a famous story told by Alan Killigrew of a St Kilda player who died in France during WWII carrying a sod of the Junction Oval turf in his pocket. What was that players name?

Sainterone · Tue 09 May 2006 11:54pm

It was Harold Comte (known as Harold WJ Comte and also William Henry James Comte) who took soil from Junction Oval to Europe.

This article identifies the Saints players who paid the ultimate sacrifice.

More stories of VFL soldiers (including the story on Comte).

Lest we forget.

riccardo · Post: # 209464Post **riccardo** » Wed 10 May 2006 7:59am

Well done, Sainterone. I actually hear the story might be bogus, but it is a nice story nonetheless.

Your turn.

Sainterone · Post: # 209479Post **Sainterone** » Wed 10 May 2006 8:59am

Here's an appropriate Q for this week (with a bit of a slant).
To showcase the performances of one Robert Harvey:
What is the best passage of play by Robert Harvey?

Better make it reasonably current or I may not remember (LOL) - neatest correct entry wins. Submit all entries by kickoff Friday night.

See how many we can get to highlight how good this guy was (and still is).
