Actually, I think Christopher Dale Flannery, the "missing" hitman referred to by Stinger a few posts back, may have actually been a Saints supporter. That isn't to glorify him by any means. He was a cold-blooded, evil bit of work who carried out contract killings for commercial purposes as...

Let's do the maths !! It is estimated in Court documents that Visy (Pratt) ripped off corporate Australia in the vicinity of $740Mill Visy (Pratt) was fined $36Mill That leaves approx $705 in illgotten gain. More than enough to throw a few $Mill around to a few charities and still have plenty left ...

Joe McLaren to North. Wayne Thornborrow to Richmond. Am I being harsh to say neither Darryl Cunningham nor Andrew Manning set the world on fire at Essendon? Ditto for Danny Craven at Brisbane? Who were the two players we had to give to the Bears in their first year? Brodie Atkinson and James Begley ...

Certainly I think we had the best trade week by some way, but I think we may have to wait a couple of years before we can pass judgment on how we've drafted. It sounds like we've done well but they all seem like long-term prospects so a lot will depend on how they develop/improve. I don't have a pro...

Re: Is Northcote/Thornbury a Saints strong hold?

During last season I caught the train in for a couple of games (given I now have my local train station all of a 3 minute walk away). I was quite surprised when coming home how many Saints supporters got off the at the same train station. Have I by some chance moved into a strong Saints area of sup...

Choice draft choices

This is one of the best emails I've received in ages. Got it from a Saints mate the other day. If it's doing the rounds and already been posted, I apologise. :D not sure if i told you but a mate went through our list and there's only two players who have been born on days we've won games - Harvs Sat...

Yeah, I couldn't help but notice they talked about five things and then listed them as 1,2,3,4 and 6!
It proves my theory, yet again, that there are three types of people in this world - those who can count, and those who can't.

Some forums with relatively big backing should take on the AFL on matters such as this. It's not a news reporting situation and shouldn't be treated as so. Basically the AFL flexes their muscle and forums cave. The only difference between this and a chat in a bar between mates is that it is recorde...

The St Kilda Football Club is NOT Rod Butterss and his cohorts. I liked that passage from "The Club" too. Yeah, but do you remember the following line? It' something like: "Yeah well I didn't get the 100 years of history and tradition, I just got Jock, Ted and Jerry" I love that...

I will be mightily peed off if Baker gets rubbed without any video or eye-witness account when that thug Hall was let off even though he was caught on camera whacking Goose BEHIND PLAY. As for Farmer, I don't know what happened, but I actually think it may have been Karma that got him.
