Lyon in rally cry to Saints!

ST KILDA coach Ross Lyon has urged his players to make up for the farewell for Robert Harvey that fell flat at the MCG against Collingwood. http://www.foxsports.com.au/story/0,8659,24156778-23211,00.html Now is it only me that finds it very worrying when such an unemotional coach suddenly sprukes th...

How many times have i heard some fans declare we were going backwards in 2006 - it's a very simplistic statement based on no real investigation of the year as it unfolded. Shocking injuries 11 six day breaks 7 interstate games afl rule change costs us 2 points we missed top 4 by % then to top it off...

Addicted and will never quit!

It's an addiction! Almost every week i end up frustrated and wishing i could quit my addiction, but i can't. So many players playing without heart So many poor decisions by the man with the ball So many umpiring decisions overlooked for us and called against when the game is in the balance So many c...

Bloody glad it wasn't on telly after reading this - just fed up with such poor umpiring game after game - it is the biggest problem in the game today.

Agree with plugger66 on this. I think it was a smart-arse comment and he didn't consciously deliberately penalise st.kilda...

After last w'end who knows who'll win. Do think game vs Collingwood is vital to the final makeup of the 8. We need 4 quarters and to go on with 1st qusrter leads. Currently i'm more fearful when we have dominant, yet wasteful 1st quarters, than when we're trailing. Our mental strength is very questi...
