Re: StKilda again the ones that cop it.

How he got off and Ryder got weeks is an absolute joke and is frankly completely illogical. One guy makes a decision to effect a contest and in doing so was going to effect a collision with the player who had eyes for the ball. The player with his eyes on the ball gets his jaw broken in the collisio...

Re: Tell me it's not so

Geez. No Saints person should be smug. The 80’s was like a completely different lifetime. Very few of us can claim to be enlightened back then. Imagine if Glen James decided to file a case? Glen James was a Vietnam Veteran and had a great sense of humour. I remember hearing a story about a player p...

Re: StKilda again the ones that cop it.

Dermott said yesterday on radio that he really hopes we don't see a situation where a big club with influence face a similar consequence and get a watered down sanction due to fear of outcry.

I think that is what we all know will happen.

When we play North in Round 8 I expect all St Kilda supporters to remember this, and give him the reception he deserves.
He deserves weeks for this outburst.

Good that we got a win and got minutes into our younger players and new guys.

Re: Hunter Clark is injured again and looking at 6 weeks...

So, in recruiting players either by drafting or attracting them from other Clubs, the caveat with the St Kilda FC is that if you cop a couple of injuries which cost you game time, and which happen in the AFL competition some injuries costing a season, you are on your bike. St Kilda FC does not want...

Very weak team this. North should beat us comfortably.... Yeah, nah. North was only able to win one game out of their last twenty-one against the most underperforming team in the league last year and given it was off Broadway in Tassie, I don't think the Suns even tried much after half time in that...

Re: A bit of help from regular game attendees pls

Having been to a lot of Saints Roos games at Marvel, I think you should be fine to buy on the day. Because there is seven of you and you probably want a good vantage point, buy them a couple of weeks before on the ticketmaster website. But getting the tickets won't be an issue.

Re: Injury update

Port hadn’t even been inside 50 by the time of the ground invasion. The way things were going we could easily have been 6 goals up by quarter time, had Port not had that chance to regroup. The way we started that game was some of the most scintillating footy I’ve ever seen us play. I suppose the ot...

Re: I'm tired of it YOY

Let's face it. North are going to be a bottom six team for a decade.
Goldstein, McKay, Cunnington, Ziebell and Thomas all leaving at once leaves them terribly exposed.
Without those guys and guys like Brown, they are going to struggle for years.

Re: Bogy team(s)

I think based on not only 2023, but since 2020, the bogy teams definitely seem to now be Port Adelaide, Melbourne, Brisbane Lions, Collingwood and the Crows. Given that four of those sides have been top 4 for much of the decade so far, it's hardly surprising. Bar those five, I am pretty confident of...

Luke Stubbs' perceptive take on Ross at Saints

This video was made 11 months ago, before the 2023 Saints had played a match against opposition in anger. His analysis on what RL might bring to the StKFC turned out to be pretty accurate. One thing I found very interesting was that he includes data Jake from Saints TV unpacked that during the 2022 ...

Re: I'm tired of it YOY

Year on year is usually an financial term to describe comparisons between years. In reality, positions 4-14 are very close and I don't think you can even come close to picking a top 8. It will almost certainly come down to luck and injuries. The comp equalisation strategy is finally working. Until ...
