Never seen a group so happy to lose their coach!!!!!!!!! :D Face it: they had had enough of dour arm wrestles, time for a change and a chance for attacking players to play with flair. Kosi, Gilbert, Gram ,Goddard, and even Raph are the 5 that come to mind who will be happy to change playing styles....

quick, stupid question.

what exactly does it mean to sponsor a player? does this money go directly to the player? what is it for?

up for sponsoring any player--hope i havent missed the pledge process.

I'm proud to be a saints fan and a saints member and its great to see so many people come out for the filming of the ad!! We're a great club and I'm proud to be a part of it. Great to see the passion in the interviews in the behind the scenes footage and I'm really excited for this season and this a...

I'm confused as to what the fuss is about. The site was down for a few days and a couple months ago it was down for a bit longer. Is everyone so attached to an internet forum that they need to go absolutely crazy at battye for a problem he couldnt DIRECTLY control? Heres a thought: when SS is down, ...

He wants to improve our attack and keep our defense good<--THE MAN IS A GENIUS! I'd say hes the first coach ever to realize that if your attack AND defense are good as opposed to one or the other, you'll win matches.

*sarcasm*

cant wait for a Roo v Dawson match up. Roo will outmark and outrun Dawson. Roo to kick 5+ vs freo (if they play on eachother that is, Mcpharlin usually takes roo i think).

EDIT: cant believe i missed someone saying the same thing above. apologies.

I find this moment infinitely more frustrating than the toepoke goal at the end. Really bothers me down to my core. Only to St Kilda could that kind of decision happen in such a close game...

what a bloody trade! I love it. Watched Saad a couple of times last year and he looked the gooods.

1) Winning the 2009 Prelim--bawled uncontrollably (happy tears) for hours after that.
2) Goddards mark--genuinely thought we had won and the drought was over.


...now f*** off you dog

as a musician, i love the OP

We never went defensive. There was one point where they had 8 backwards kicks to our 1. Thats an encouraging sign and gives a good picture of how Ross wants us to play. Also, the endeavor was there right until the end.

Anything can happen in finals and we showed that we DESERVE to be there.

absolute gem: We get all players healthy and conditioned, we do a little trading and we play in the GF next year. I have no doubt about it.

the incidents were the same. it makes no sense to me that dawson would go but not brown. i dont mind that dawson went--it was stupid--but due to the similarities between the incidents, the MRP should have been consistent and rubbed them both out.

F***. i know people will say he needed a rest, but still--it wasn't that hard a hit.

very true, he always seems to have the extra second and its all he needs.

we will almost inevitably lose the clearances so it will be interesting to see how our defense handles that. our halfback line will be crucial in stemming the flow from their clearances and then setting up our attack.

according to reports from Sandy, MG might be used more than for just a "farewell game". If, Misso say's he'll make it through games without the body breaking down, I'd love to have him back.

actually all i see is a very tough run if we make it.

one week at a time...

as far as i'm predicting, we'll play essendon in the first week of the finals. with our (and their) form turn around since we last met, i truly hope we can get the monkey off our back and finish them.

Well Joffaboy me owld mucker, its like this: The trouble-and-strife (AKA Mrs Jigging) gave me a haircut (I KNOW not a lot to cut :roll: ) and the old scone was FREEZIN at match time so I grabbed the cover from the teapot and stuck it on me noggin and thus dressed set out with the jigging daughter o...

here it is for those who havent seen it. spectacular. hate carlton though.

wait I never got a PM! Please!! I'm desperate everyone!
