Anti-Saint

so we wanted Dump Rd to win? tks WCW

when did we last lose to North?

tks @deejammin'

INS/OUTS for next week? where do u find online our injury list

disagree @WalkingCivilWar - Harvs is boring as a commentator YES generally for mens footy but his insights were complementary for that game's pace and atmosphere - Harvey wanted to go further with his insights but he was scared as he thought he was still an AFL coach IMO! Jak Hevron was terrific not talking all the time - THE ONLY callers i want to hear all the time r Dennis n Bruce from the good ol dayz!

u r right @Queanbeyan Demon - VFL allowed Dump Rd on to our ground and then The Filth followed w/o compensation

is it possible that Ratten could have a legal case against St Kilda for impairing his ability to seek other work, such that St Kilda ought to be required to pay out more than the mandatory 6 months of salary? I hope Ratten goes to court - the 6-months clause gives all the power to the clubs. While Ratten has been well paid, compared to you n me! he's in a billion-dollar comp and I think 6-months payout is unfair with 24 months left in contract (Oct 2022 - Sept 2024). To see the Saints losing and in Court - what a combination. That club should be thrown out of the league.

I agree with other posters that this is what Linton St should do: move further south to Hobart. They can keep the name St Kilda but change Saints to Penguins: "Oh when the penguins, come waddlin' in ..." To be fair, we were this bad 10 years ago but at least we had contributed much to the game and behaved with dignity. I hope the Penguins are slaughtered each week next year and we kick 200 points against them.

you can't say that QBD - Kim Jong-un will cut up ruff!

i believe Ol' Fella that AFL changed all club contracts to mean that only 6 months salary to be paid out no matter how many months are left. Saints president, Andrew Bassat, said at today's media conference that paying out was the decent thing to do! The decent thing to do!!! what about the other 18 months Bassat - that's Bassat the multi millionaire from Seek.com, where poor Ratten now finds himself. Pay Ratten the full amount but that's typical of Linton St - they went broke what 3 times in the 60s, 70s and 80s? Didn't pay their only premiership coach his dues - even when the two-headed monster Butters and Thomas were making record profits. no wonder I am an Anti-Saint!

supa intell Bstander

Hill - yeah/nah/yeah; Clarke - nah; Long - yeah - you have good intel down there at Linton St which is a dump of an area, I know I grew up next door! @Queanbeyan Demon

we win Maldonboy first 10 then lose 8 from 14! in 6 of the 8 losses we were up by three goals - the othe two we are within a goal

Agree Dee-tox u dont call players spuds or duds - and all but milkshake are premiership players

and from 1961 to 64 we won 4 of 9 finals. the slide was beginning,

and from 1954 to 1960 we won 11 of 14 finals!

Beeennnnnneeeerrrrt! Loved the WA recruit - and what an excerpt ... hey, is it me or does that ball look smaller than today's Sherrin - could that be a Ross Faulkner?

thought the same last night - top get by you.

well QBD buy a copy of Ian Munro's MFC book: and send Swooper a copy - Swoop runs a pub down Geelong way?

look QBD - as you know, Murdoch has sacked all the sub-editor so as he can record another billion-dollar profit. so I missed a letter in "they"! you give me goals off the boat (get it - I know it's meant to be boot) of Max and I will shut up!

hi all the only stat that matters is winning but while we await another win reflect on this (the modern era but if we went back into our domination of the 50s and 60s this record would be even more impressive): 1987: 2 wins from 3 finals 88: 3/4 89: 1:2 90: 1/2 91: 1/2 94: 2/3 98: 2/3 (stupid Final 8 system then deprived us of a flag) 00: 2/3 (only year until last year we got a week's rest in the finals) 02: 1/2 04: 0/1 05: 0/1 06: 1/2 (we got rid of Mini-Bus Thomas from St Kilda with that one win) 18: 2/3 21: 3/3 Tallies: 21 wins from 34 finals It would seem as though we have a reason to be confident going into Friday based on these simplistic stats?

the zoning - and I recall this as a kid - by the VFL for the Hawks was fair dinkum unbelievable that the Saints, which were located in that vicinity (St Kilda) prior to moving down to Linton St. I can't stand either club as both harbour and excuse thugs. Nevertheless, how did the VFL do that zoning decision?

thanks for the review Jack ... $45 a copy and Ian Munro won't make a cent such is the time one puts into publishing such a book. into the Christmas wish list ... I want one nearly as much as a flag after your and Mike Sheahan's reviews.

thanks DS ... i think the were at HFC?

u r right - that's unreadable is it produced by McGuire Media possibly?!!!
