Nah.....not at all....

Two Power fwds.....the target for every entry.....Focus on big bodies winning contested footy and long direct kicking......focus on hardness, and ruthlessness....

Nothing like Brisbane :wink:

It is not about the 1000 or so who rock up (half of which get in for free - members) that makes money.....it is the community support that they get through sponsorship.....St.K struggle to get the corperate support to back the senior list.....

With the same injuries GT would NOT have done any better with the list IMO.....

Explain how we would field a side........ 44 St.K players......22 in the seniors.....8-12 injured as usual.....10 to 14 players will not make a side...... would we have to grab some non-saints players......pay them...... sounds familiar.......bit like the Casey arrangement....only we don't pay them....

Pathetic end to a pathetic season

Glad it's over, sick of watching a boring, reactive crap style of footy.....supercoach Ross obviously has a rule.....start dominating the game, close down and try to hold on.....team rule - win by less than three goals...not let any player with natural ability take a risk... and on Ross......
