BrianSpeaking on the Saints Big Footy posted this morning that the pervibial was hitting the fan. He's normally close to the mark....

Watching the debutants play is exciting. Amazing to think Markworth has become the forgotten man...
Club seemed to have pencilled him in for matches this year before the knee injury.

To ignore that would be folly in understanding the fact that Lyon was gifted such a team.

Never said he wasn't great, I will argue that he is not in the elite bracket yet.

Harvey had them in the finals in 2010. In 2011 the cattle he had to choose from was beyond limited. The amount of injuries that they had numbered near the 20 mark. At one stage they were going to ask for special assistance they had 23 fit blokes to choose from. But it is very easy to blame a coach ...

So he lit the fuse? I don't get it, if there was discontent why did it need him to light the fuse??

So let me get this straight (been a rough day so jumping on here distracts me) We don't want to farewell players with honour - ummm what the hell was Rd 23 about then? Speech at B&F - didn't Roo have a similar speech few years back about getting on the bus or leaving? We need Richardson bc he wo...

Absolute fantastic documentary. The passion and bond between these guys just amazing.

Gone for the best deal IMO after listening to that.

IMO the club will try find out what compo they would get for him as a free agent. If not good enough then I reckon he will stay.

If Dal was to go, I would rather he left as a free agent. Would be likely to get a 1st band compo for him. Which would technically be the pick after our first round pick, effectively giving us 3 and 4...

Dal for pick 26 and Delany is a loss for us!

Where in Wodonga?

That was it???? Oh god I thought that ACA. Couldn't get worse.....

His regime saw the departure of a successful coach, a former captain, a former #1 draft pick, the sacking of Gram, the move to Seaford (detested by players), the non defense of Baker after being shafted, no presence as a leader Membership fall, not sure about Tassie Bail out? Stopped the recruitmen...

Hahahaha just another reason to find a better sponsor....

Well thanks everyone for your support. I am very sad that I am not in Melbourne right now. If I was, I would be at St Kilda Football Club tomorrow, with the Clint Jones run-out top I bought through the Saints auctions, when he was first drafted. I would be burning it in public. Not with a dwarf ins...

So now the FACTS are out.... Can some responsibility be accepted now.... I love how the same apologists have gone quiet.... Even though an APOLOGY by player and club and compensation has been agreed to as a consequence which intimates guilt!!! Or are we going to continue to defend or be dismissive?...

You can now probably add the dwarf burner to the list of possible delistees or trades I would. Hasn't done him any favours. Wouldn't haven't any sympathy if he is delisted. IN my books he was right on the border anyway. Would send a strong message this club needs. What the same message sent to Gram...

Oh for crying out loud now he is a coward?

Bloke did the wrong thing apologised and all parties moving on.

Just not condemning anyone until full story is known.

Why is that so hard to grasp? And why is it so wrong?

Wouldn't think there is anything wrong with that. IMO

Who was the eye witness with Duthie.... Did someone watch the act.... You said it yourself... He may be telling the truth.... If he is, (not sure why he'd make it up?)Do you give a position.... Or continue to look for a defense? Why is it hard to accept.... Especially after the last 5 years... That...

No ones defending it.... Mmm, really?! I will see when this fully comes out and the club makes a statement..... Then can I call it moronic I can't just take the word of an eyewitness? And if it is proven to be overblown? Will you admit you are wrong or still stay on the high horse. Hell the article...

The mighty saints, coaches, players, supporters.... Just can't do anything wrong can they? So charges need to be laid, for it to be a low act? Mad Monday... Had it last week..... Had about 20 in cricket and footy... Never lit anyone up? Something dickheads do.... Oh mighty sage should we sack first...
