Re: Integrity

TJS Integrity comes from respect, wisdom and leadership and the club has bugger all of that. Leadership doesnt always come from great or average ex-footballers, it comes from smart, highly skilled, dynamic and pragmatic people. We cant buy 4 points or high draft picks but we can choose to bring bett...

Integrity

St Kilda

- has none
- thinks it has some
- wants to have more
- money cant buy it
- lost whatever it had left today

Where is St Kilda's version of "Leigh Matthews" to take on the board when we need him??

SW should never have been our coach.....

To our Departing CEO You may have done some good things at the saints but you will be forever remembered as the person responsible for letting Ross Lyon walk out on St KIlda As a result the club has staggered from crisis to crisis to finally where we are today.

Sign up Watters to 2016

If we want to attract ANY great player. assistant coach or administrator to our club we need to have certainty over the coach for the next 3 years. If we want to retain sponsors sign him up The reality is that by 2016 we will still only be in the bottom 4-6 clubs as the rebuild of the drafting calam...

Re: Rhys on the table

Stanley isnt a backmans a...hole. I equate this to playing Glenn McGfath as an opening batsman for Australia! All we are doing is killing this kids confidence to try and not get smashed in the back line Whislt we all dont think his form is great, if we end up managing him badly he could end up like ...

Play the Long Game, it's our only option.....

For me, tonights game painted a very clear picture of not only our current plight but also what we need to do to turn this ship around. Tonight highlighted just how many years of pain we are in for and just how far we have fallen. It also highlighted the HUGE gap in leadership between the two teams ...

Re: Nicky and Gilbert - Open Mike

A great watch - good to see Nicky is recovering well I have so many great memories of watching Nicky in full flight at Moorabbin, taking a great mark, making a game changing tackle, passing to plugger or kicking a long range goal on the run. When you look at the video highlights it reminds you of Hi...

Transition from Old to New

There is no point in delaying the inevitable retirement of our older players by a few years if all that does is delay the rebuilding process. This year is the 1st uncompromised draft in 2-3 years. We must take advantage to get the highest and best draft picks available and position the team for the ...

Tonight was more painful than GF09

Why? well because in 09 I thought missed opportunity but the window was still open Tonight showed how wide the gap has grown between us and the top teams. Watching Geelong tear us a new one is like reliving 09 over and over and over again (swallowing razor blades) If it is the end of the era then le...

Tonight is entree of what is to come in the next 2-3 years. I hope SW delivers on his promise to trade hard at seasons end. As much as it pains me my expectations will now be lowered for the next 2-3 years with probably no finals. Watching the game tonight brings back memories from GF 09 and how clo...

Thank God for Scott Watters.....

* Attacking game style
* Introduction of new players - young and old
* Better across the board team efforts
* More enjoyable game to watch

As much as I would have worshipped RL if we won in 09 or 10, may we NEVER, EVER, EVER go back to an RL game style.

Keep up the good work Scotty!!!

We lost by less than two goals tonight without: 1. Sam Fisher - would Jack Reiwoldt have kicked 8 goals on Sam?? 2. Ben Mc - would we have been smashed in the hitouts if Macca has played?? 3.

To be a competitive top 4 side again.... How many years? - my guess 2-3 years How many trades? - 1 ruckman and 1 key defender How many delistings? - 7 to 10 incl polo, blake, ray, peake amongst others My take on it is that there is no point doing a Nth Melbourne and being competitve to just miss the...

Whilst lacking some consistency across 4 qtrs at the moment, his foot skills would have helped tonight in my opinion. 50-60m long accurate kicks would have broken up freo's defensive zone On the turnover we dominated Freo 1 on 1 but on too many occasions our footskills let us down.
