They were jumping on him like a bunch of wild dogs. Nettlefold should take a leaf out of Sheedy's book and some of our former Prime Ministers by demanding the time to finish an answer before another person throws a question. You have Thomas there, a disgruntled former Saint with personal vendettas a...

$1.5 million loss reported in the Herald Sun!! Stadium Deal?

It was reported we have a very poor stadium deal and we have traded to a 1.5 million dollar loss. Does anyone know anything about this?
How can this be possible?

I thought we were very stable off field.

Can anyone enlighten?

Steve Baker should be offered the very highest level of respect one can give. A B&F winner in a very strong era I struggle to remember a game in his 203 where he let us down. He was a phenomenal competitor, amazing strength in body and mind and a great character around the club as well, he will ...

I am all for it, he is a great player and I think after hitting rock bottom he can deliver for 2 to 3 years.

It will be interesting what RL does with Armitage considering he does not cover the ground at the level he demands. Ball was exited due to this as we all know. Armitage is 50/50 for me long term, it will depend on who keeps coming through. I think for 2012, A List mid fielders will be: Hayes, Montag...

Steven is going to be a top level player. I am hoping Peake can maintain this high level and its not just a rich vein of form. I had doubts on Peake after September but he has been excellent. Well done to both of them.

The emergence of Jack Steven is the best news of 2011 for the Saints. He is an emerging A List midfielder and I am looking forward to a mid field of next year of: Hayes, Montagna, Steven, Dal Santo, Armitage with Ledger looking another likely type. With Lenny back watch how our mid field will work. ...
