Let's hope Jayden makes a full and speedy recovery. Rookie list him if we must...but definitely not take him in the draft. Some good posts about Gehrig retiring - I'm starting to realise he's not going to be part of our next premiership, and that's what we have to aim for. I'd think about trading h...

Well only a minor miracle will see us in the eight. It is time to ponder the future of some of our players: Jason Blake I'm not really sure what purpose he serves in the team. His skills and pace are not as good enough to be on the ball. He is not big enough to be a defender. Matthew Clarke Ended up...

Fact is that the 50m penalty was there! Stupid play by Vossy then. Absolutely no need to drag the player to the ground. Gifted them a goal. Not that it would have mattered...we have to be THE worst side I've seen at killing the ball on the last line of defence. WCE got too many goals tonight because...

I agree on tonight's performance :shock: The only time I thought the coach made an error was in the last goal by Le Cras when we had no one inside defensive 50. Maybe they knew how long we had to go and that we would not have had time to rebound it. But anyway...our disposal was ordinary tonight fro...

My e-mail from Archie Fraser earlier today indicated that the advice the Saints received from their QC and legal team gave them little chance of winning a challenge through the legal system.

So Baker out - Attard in

Judd should be out (suspended ) for eye gouging for the next six weeks. What a farce that Campbell Brown got 15, 000 dollars for lying... Why did the tribunal not then suspend Judd on the light of new evidence that Brown WAS eyegouged - I bet they would have re convened and gives bakes 12 weeks if ...

How bout you?

easy just replied to the one he sent back two days ago

Same here...

Can someone post a photo of the sign?

The whole In Play / Behind Play category was scrapped for this season.

The grounds we should use are that no reasonable body could find anyone guilty on the evidence presented. Blocking a player's run has never been rough conduct. And it should never be rough conduct.

To be fair...Stafford copped weeks for that!

I did... Here is my e-mail to Archie Fraser sent last night... [quote="Life Long Saint"] Dear Archie, As a long time St Kilda Football Club member I implore the club to take the Steven Baker decision to the highest possible appeal process. If that means taking a legal option outside the AF...

But they still found he had engaged in rough conduct, acting recklessly and that he made high contact to Farmer with high impact. THE LAST STATEMENT IS AN ERROR IN FACT. FARMER MADE CONTACT WITH HIM WITH HIGH IMPACT, NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND!! ST KILDA - FIGHT THIS STUPID DECISION!! Since when has ...

It should be:

WHAT'S THE POINT
OF MAKING THE EIGHT?
THE AFL HAVE ALREADY
DECIDED OUR FATE!

If Farmer ran into the back of an umpire who suddenly stopped running, how many weeks would the umpire get? And there it is, folks! Kosi copped a week for doing that last season. If the roles with Baker and Farmer were reversed you can bet London to a brick that Bakes would have been done for charg...

If he blocked his run wouldn't that be an illegal shepard off the ball?

Yes it is illegal...it should have been a free kick.

Don't need a crow bar...just let them do "Saint Scared" again!

I reckon we'd be pretty pissed off that he got away with it... BUT... If there is no vision and no witness with corroborating evidence what could happen? I actually think we'd just accept that the AFL would do nothing about it. It would hardly be the first time other clubs have played whack-a-saint ...

He should say Farmer made certain allegations surrounding his little sister (or some close female relative) ... His action was just a retaliation!

Remember that he has a week from the double contested report from earlier this season still hanging over his head. When he is found guilty (the AFL must have already decided to get this far) he will be out for some time. Some of those past silly acts are catching up to him. BTW, I think this is a st...

Fair call...his action could have ended Bell's career.

EPO...$500
Crack...$400
Ice...$200
Watching the Saints win clean

PRICELESS

look, without being too negative, Freo were crap.....no ruckman, a one man forward line (Pavlova) and no idea how to slow a game down. The moment X.Clarke ran down the guts at full speed to bang it inside 50 really showed up how different a game plan against us Freo had compared to most other sides...

Isnt that the whole point? Bomber Thompson licked his wounds, recognised he was not able to manage the many hats Cook and others at the club said he was managing - it was affetcing his coaching. So whats he do? Agrees with the Board for the footballmanager position, the club sought some outside lea...
