Can't help noticing the other two went on to claim the flag. I don't want to jinx us but we do have a history of claiming the most unenviable of records. Surely we'll go on from here, won't we...............?

Zac caught the recruiters' eyes with a couple of 8 goals bags at Box Hill last year. The guy can play forward. Might be nice insurance for the almost certain tragedy that is bound to afflict Kosi before the end of the year.

Yes folks, sounds like Ross is struggling as much as his team. How's the transformation in the man and his team since round 12 last year? 25 home and away wins and two relatively narrow losses. In Ross we trust..........

His nick name since 1982 when he was a cadet journalist with the ABC is "Quarterbrain". His colleagues at 10 call him "Himbo", behind his back. The male equivalent of the female bimbo reporter who gets the job because of their physical, rather that mental attributes. The guy read...

If they play like they did tonight Griggsy, there's every chance they could miss out. Now wouldn't that be great? I suppose that Judd's injury tonight will give him more time to devote to his crucial work at Visy.

The part about his heart not being in it is the sad truth. Many of his close colleagues in Adelaide, including John Reid, publicly stated he shouldn't have coached after leaving Adelaide. Reid was accused of "sour grapes" by the media at the time, as it was felt that St.Kilda had somehow t...

McDermott is living proof that just because you were good at playing the game, doesn't mean you can analyse it or comment on it intelligenty. Good player, very poor commentator in general and not just because of his bias for the crows. He just ain't that bright!

In The Age it was St.Kilda 16, Adelaide 4, although most tipped the margin to be fewer than 10 points. So the experts seem to be on board, although not with the same degree of confidence. IMHO one of the reasons we seem to be the focus of attention when it comes to ending the streak is that it will ...

Seeing that Sandringham has the bye this week, do we assume Bally won't play next either because he has to find form in the VFL first? It will be interesting to see if he is selected next week, without having done "penance" in the VFL. Maybe sizzling track form might get him back. Then aga...

I seriously hope "James" is taking the piss. If not, it merely confirms every stereotype of the inbred, ignorant, idiot Adelaide supporter. Then again, he may just be the cream of the crop. His punishment is his life. Poor boy.
