Was a great player in our not so great period. Brought some joy to those cold days at Moorabbin.

Had a really long torp, he looked like he was trying to kick longer than Jeff Fehring at times.

His glass blowing skill is exceptional.

Thanks for the memories and RIP Darryl Cowie.

He'd be an excellent choice.

Mitchell is a win at all costs person, doesn't worry about niceties, being polite, or crushing feelings, just wants to win.

It's what we need.

Remind me, what was the outcome when a young Stewart Loewe shook the goal post, in similar circumstances, in the late '80s? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I seem to recall him being suspended for a week. What year was that? I reckon it may have been in 1986 (Stewie's rookie year). I'm glad you posted...

Here's a couple of links to articles in the Perth papers. https://thewest.com.au/sport/swan-districts-football-club/garry-sidebottom-wa-football-hall-of-fame-inductee-state-of-origin-ng-b881151434z https://www.perthnow.com.au/sport/afl/former-saint-cat-and-lion-garry-sidebottom-passes-away-aged-64-n...

So sad. Best wishes to his family and friends.
Poor Malcolm's suffering is now over, theirs is just beginning.
A talented man who made the world a better place.

I was accused of not being an ITK, now I am accused of being Ameet, if i was then surely I was an ITK. Make up your mind people! In all seriousness the nature of criticism in his forum from some is quite staggering. Have said it before and will say it again we are all Saints people and should be un...

Jaxons wrote that Haynes WILL be at St Kilda next year. No ifs or buts. Some clarification would be appreciated. That is all. Pav, you're normally pretty balanced, Jaxons' comment was: "Ok will tell you now Nick Haynes likely to be with us next year." Things may or may not have changed, H...

Again, what is Jaxon's position or job title? Not asking for a name. Its probably the 7th time I've asked on here but I just get donuts each time. Otherwise, its all just BS and its probably someone that just reads news articles and is playing people for a fool. "It’s not what you are undernea...

Rossie didn't have time to show Tom anything, he wouldn't have taken the time to show him the door.

No reflection on Jaxons at all. Shows how fluid this time of year is. Win some lose some. The Bombers were forced to up their offer.

All good for us, no downside at all... we move on wards and upwards.
Please keep us in the loop Jaxons.

Hopefully somebody on here knows, I've been wondering about the patch Paddy has had under his arm for the past few games. Is it a glucose measuring device, similar to the one described in the following article? http://www.news.com.au/lifestyle/health/health-problems/new-device-for-diabetes-eliminate...

I do love the Aussie sense of humour.

Well Lyon isn't renown for bringing young talent through. There was talk that at St Kilda he had very little to do with players outside his top 25. But you don't know what Lynch's situation was - did he feel neglected, I don't think we had a great development environment for young players. But mayb...

Rossy had his favourites in those days.
Tom Lynch wasn't playing brilliantly, but he said Ross only spoke to him 3 times when he was at the club. He felt it was time for a clean break even though Ross had gone.
It has worked out well for both parties.

For once the Saints are in the driving seat. Carlile wants to move on so Essendon have to make a deal happen.

For once the Saints can sit back and say, "No"....."No"

I don't see Carlile being the great hope for the Saints future.

Funny, if I had been asked to go to court and give sworn evidence, I would have said Gary Colling wore no.13. However, I have checked and, of course, you are right. Now I need to know who actually did wear no.13 for quite a few games at about the same time that Gary Colling was playing? :? :? Robbi...

Just on how comparable players from different eras might, or might not, be - I reckon you can only compare them with their peers of the time, and if they rank highly in their time, use that comparison to decide where they fit in our history (as subjective as that may be). I've read people comparing...

RIP Phil. Thanks for making the world a better place.

I lost a dear mate the same way in the early 8o's. The only blessing from Steve Wearne's tragic death was that helmets became compulsory in many grades of cricket.

A lot of people have said he's an enormous d**khead but a lot seems to come from him screwing up a scholarship at Haileybury or something. There are knocks on how he fits because he's athletic but not KPP or mid sized and so is a Goddard sized utility type with good endurance but not really sure wh...

No conviction. Con, can she now sue him through a civil action? She already did, and settled, years ago. Which adds to the stupidity of this whole situation. Seems like a sensible sentence from the judge, and hopefully we will never have to read of this again in the media. Thanks Legendary, I'd for...

Jeff Sarau gave plenty of entertainment. There is some great footage of pup and Mike Fitspatrick having a nice little punch up with an umpire (was it Kevin Smith?) in between them. For maximum dickheadidity (I like making up new words for emphasis) Mark Jackson was entertaining in his brief Saintly ...
