P66 it was completely about the money. The club was going to take on the majority of the debt and thus the increase in pokie revenue from the south rd complex underpinned the repayments. Money from both govts would have lessened the debt, thus meaning the big sticking point would cease to matter

so lyon has burnt out another assistant.

On assuming we have not only just appointed a new fitness guy but a assistant coach to replace Laidley, I assume there will be a article on the Age pointing out how professional and efficient this new saints regime is....

*crickets*

best membership ideas for a good 10 years IMO Love the desktop program where you can put in images of what the saints mean to you. I have just gone through my pictures and found one of myself and a friend straight after the siren 2009. You forget what the club means to you sometimes. This was just p...

could this be a ploy to perhaps get the deal to favour us? Seemed to be fisher plus pick for bruce, perhaps it will be now fisher for bruce and change of third rounders? Wow all of one place perhaps

Makes sense if the following was to happen, longer for 25. Delaney for fourth rounder, bruce psd

Sav, hit the nail on the head!!

So wait people are not going to renew for two reasons? 1) because their fav player has gone..... can you buy a dal santo membership card? Rubbish, typical soft response. Players will come and go, the saints will go on. I support the saints. 2) because we might be crap for the next two - three years....

Will come down to compo, band 2-3 and I think its a wise move. Thanks dal but you were cruising this year. Will need to step it up for north to give them value.

As inges said yesterday on twitter, supplements can be as simple as a multi vitamin. The non supervision is the real story. Love the bombers using this as a crutch lol

Why bother with this comunication thing. The pres says they will wait till after the review and vision statement is discussed with senior staff. Hs journalist ignores this and says coach needs wins to keep job. What a wank!!!

Us saints supporters need to do something because this gutter rubbish from sen, fox sports and afl.com can have financial effect on the club we love. It could cost us sponsors, membership, players and future staff. I would suggest a bigblock of callers every shift demanding the sacking and apologies...

Just over two hours to go.

Cmon guys, its simple nowto join the dots. Ex players, annoyed current one told off after his other mate is sacked. Disagreement over martin... No one ever played chinese whispers. Btw wallace is a joke

Find it interesting that his manager makes it clear that a lot of clubs are interested yet the saints were willing to allow him to go for free?? I would understand if it was just him wanting to go home etc.

would be a huge get, very highly rated.

Confirmed as true. I just checked the sporting almanac that fell out of Marty Mcflys Delorean in front of my house the last time he visited.. And if you are interested in making a few bucks I just checked next years Brownlow winner and you should be able to get some ripper odds for Tom Ledger when ...

Have to disagree in the highest terms. Was measured, honest and played a straight bat. All players are contracted, correct, players have to want to go to the club, correct. Deal must satisfy the club, correct. Was honest about who had contacted them re; dal. Seems like all the club has done is hones...

Can you count?

#freechappy

Throw in currie and we have a deal. On trade the pick with macca for tyson and bruce.

The question in my mind and shall forever be there is why jump? He had him cold, came from a direction which allowed him to take kosi out fairly. kosi would have had to do something similar to a head check to have seen this coming. So why did gia feel the need to jump into the player, thus brining t...

A experience at the bar watching the game yesterday (you actually get a interesting view on level 2 behind the goals, how teams spread is one) made me ask 'what are the stupidest football followers have you sat/stood next too" These two spent the whole game taking pot shots at the saints and in...

Our defenders went backwards and sideways at every opportunity, it was like 2009 all over again. Not hard to get good efficiency stats in that situation! That said, Gilbo was good today. Did you see the mega flood GC applied. Worst coaching of the year from McKenna in a game that meant nothing over...

have to say he looked like a very good vfl player expected to play above his weight. Problem as some have mentioned is his age and length of time on rookie list. If you had the choice between ledger and him age wise you would have to go ledger. Also seems to have no weapons, average height, average ...
