Getting back to the boys - does anyone know if there are any open training sessions this coming week? "OPEN" training sessions are announced on http://www.saints.com.au It doesn't really matter anyway as there is bushland all around the place. If you headed down for a look I'm sure you wo...

also plays as a forward and that is not what we need at the moment

yes eddie - if we got to play most of our games at the mcg we might be in a better position financially. Are we meant to sit back and not have the advantages that the favoured clubs get given by nature of the draw and their stadium deals?

According to ameet bains last night the afl have informed the saints that the decision will be made re ahmeds suspension today,

The saints have two rookie spots available and who they take will depend on how long saad is suspended for. One spot is earmarked for him depending on his penalty

My gut feel is it is of questionable value. Dont see what is wrong with the training facility on mt bogong. Anyways its a trend i guess. Does the afl pitch in any $$ ? um there is no training facility on mt bogong - think you mean falls creek on the bogong high plains. No roads up mt bogong and the...

sorry we need players whose names we can pronounce and spell

Is being painted by quite a few. Fair? Interesting discussion anyhow. Unfair. No Pelchen is. That is why Watters is gone and not any coup from the players. Watters was not up to it. The players dealt with him and so knew this. But Pelchen is the one calling the shots. Good Call, Fair Call, Needed C...

5 shares for me thanks

3 daniel markworth
2 shane savage
1 jackson ferguson although not sure he is going to be there next year sainter k

ok put me down for 5 shares for a start and if we do actually sponsor a second player then I will be happy to take another 5 shares for that one as well. Would suggest that we do not commit to the second player until we have pledges to sell ALL shares and people have actually paid up. Just remind me...

would imagine that he will be core group. Maybe just sponsor one player next year until all those who have actually pledged to pay do so.

think we need midfielders in this draft dont we????? Why would we not pick the best midfielder available with pick 3?

think you will find that most of the players mentioned have contracts for next year. The only exceptions would be dunnell and possibly saad if he is suspended which would be very unfortunate. Dennis lane only came to us last year so would think that he had a 2 year contract, And jones finished 8th i...

As has been previously stated it was the manner in which ross left that was the problem. And I firmly believe after a conversation with the player who subsequently left to play for fremantle that the deal was done a long time before the end of the season. The conversation went as follows "funny...

sorry K - I am illiterate and can never think of anything to say

no the american supporter was far too busy and "upset" to take the call apparently.

The key issue here is that a St Kilda player, Clint Jones, set fire to a little person. That was a criminal act, even if he isn't charged... and the whole objectification of little people, and the demeaning attitude of so many of you towards little people in general, is part of the culture of hate,...

sorry still think that alcohol and fire lighters should not be mixed. Would hope that all the players who were involved have been spoken to as it was a stupid game in the first place. Happy to see an apology from Clint but really he should have known better than to become involved in such a stupid s...

Can't believe the number of people on here who think this is funny. Setting anybody on fire is extremely stupid and dangerous no matter what height they are. The fact that it was a dwarf is completely irrelevant as far as I am concerned but it seems to make it a huge joke to some. I hope the club in...

actually wondered in the last quarter whether ross had orchestrated blakey being alone in the forward line - happened twice and no opposition player on him. Same with kosi to a lesser extent - alll on his own to take an uncontested mark. Was nice of lyon to come over and shake players hands after th...

perhaps the lab rats

http://www.theage.com.au/afl/afl-news/essendon-players-can-walk-out-experts-20130822-2sekq.html "Legal experts believe there is a strong case to say that Essendon's alleged failing in providing a safe workplace would allow the players to terminate their contracts - in effect, enabling even tho...

really looking forward to the best and fairest. Should be a great night.

Good of the club to throw a party on my Birthday- be nice if they come through with the Signed Jumper ( as a winner) s sorry to all those kids hoping to win-- but elderly citizens also deserve presents :wink: sorry about that - think that signed jumper is mine. Nice idea from the club although stra...

giving the club sanctions for bad behaviour does not punish the fans at all. Yes they may be fined and lose draft picks but the club will still exist. Think it would be totally unfair to the 17 other clubs who have not done anything wrong (as far as we are aware) to allow them to get away with a sys...

[quote="plugger66" I reckon the trip to Colorado would be about one tenth of what it would cost for us to set up and own reserves side and thats before they get 4 or more people at 25K a hit to go and watch and join in the training. That off sets it even more and also maybe the players and...
