Great player was Ross Oakley, I watched one of his last (if not the last) games at the Fitzroy ground. I think it was in 1966. Anyway, he took a mark on the boundary. Maybe 30 yards (in those days young fellas). I was sitting on the fence. First time I ever saw a banana kick. right through the midd...

Don't get SEN, love K Roberts in his day (#23). Also a former Reserves Coach. Beautiful left-footed drop kick, exclusively a half-forward flank. Look forward to hearing what he had to say.

I was a big rap for him, but.... Last night he had 22 possessions but, to be honest, I didn't notice too many hurting the opposition. I spotted him as, I thought, totally out of gas before 3/4 time and can only assume Lenny was sore when subbed-out. I thought Ross was cooked and sure to be benched. ...

I'd love to catch up for a chat Doc. You're a true supporter of the Saints.

Ian Robson, a StKilda man through and through! What value would he bring to the Board? Ostrich impersonations aside, not a Saints person and not of any value to us. At Board level anyway.

24k. Including me, the good wife and the kid.

Turn up to the match would be a good start. It's our home game and it will be pretty lonely because not too many Doggies "faithful" will be there.

Stanley is a forward. Pure and simple.

Never looked comfortable to me forward, never, never ever.

Agree K. Come to think of it, I am yet to see him look comfortable anywhere on the field.

Rhys is THE ultimate Saintsational love child. He is in his fifth season at the club, has nearly 30 games under his belt and I am desperately waiting for his breakout game. Plenty of posters to this site are all to willing to chop less experienced players, such as Ledger, and proven performers (CJ c...

I would make Big Boy captain at the end of the year. Rooey has had his time and I don't like him as an on field captain anyway. His antics when a ball misses him and his umpire pleading looks grate me. He's a star and maybe the lifting of the captaincy will help him. I have no doubt he's a leader o...

Brilliant, almost tear-jerking post! My sentiments to a tee. I can't remember what year it was that we broke the Princes Park curse but I do remember our previous win there against the pompous Blues. My mum took me to the match (I was too young to go alone). I remember a young Blue making his debut...

A crazy old man in Hobart said he will be the best player ever out of Tassie.... he's got a bit to go yet but it was a good start. No pressure son but best ever...BEST EVER! he's got a few to get past Baldock Riewoldt Richardson Stewart went ok too by all reports and a few brownlows. I'll be happy ...

the reson for the rule was that hit.... Kosi is now part of the fabric of the rules of the game..... Spot on, very similar incident. I happened about 30 metres from our seats and is something I'll never forget. Gia was airborne and actually got Kosi in the temple with his head. That action did all ...

gun red, an absolute friggin gun ok so how good? better than barks? better than plugger? better than harvey? tough calls has to be doesnt he? below plugger, above barks and even with harvey Ooh tough call, above barks definitely. Also forgotten Baldock? Just all of them true champions of the club. ...

9 kicks, 12 h'balls, 6 marks, 6 tackles, and......1 HIT OUT. Agree, looking better with every game. Not sure his top speed is all that slow, more like slow acceleration IMO There was a bloke named Greg Williams watching the match tonight. He was supposed to be pretty slow, too, but had quick hands ...

He is a developing player, with 2 weaknesses..... And many strengths Break away speed, intensity, carry, courage, quickness, ball winning, clearance work..... His main attributes Decision making and disposal can be inconsistent.... Good to poor I'll have Jack's decision making and disposal every da...

Work commitments and a 380 km round trip make Friday nights a tough ask for me. And..............it was a Collingwood home game. 40,000 was a poor crowd; I expected more. No way, however, would I consider contributing to the wealth of Collingwood. Sainternist is right though. Of the 47,000 + at OUR...

Tony Leonard in drag? Whoever that thing is it seemed a waste of time putting out the message to stop abusing players. I don't think she was offering Milney a night on the town.

Wright's tearaway style and long kicks seemed to be the blueprint for last night's gameplan. Very impressed with him (again). I predict that, based on last night's effort, that Seb Ross will become and automatic inclusion by the second half of the season. Newnes was teriffic in the first half and an...

JCMBT and BIGRED, save your time by not entering any spelling bees! It's HUDGHTON - and even after 234 games in red, white and black you still can't spell his name!

Obviously not your grammar teacher!

....except for the FACT that he did a great job on Bennell (and got plenty of the ball himself)!

Sometimes I truly wonder if some people on this forum actually watch games.
