Seems like we drafted a natural footballer here, someone who can play the game, has great skills and instincts.

Good to see a promising youngster getting a fair crack at some game time.

There was a big blonde kid from Brighton who had a pretty good start to his career a lot of years ago.

Oh, to have a dominating & intimidating ruckman like Carl now !!

I've only just caught up with this really intersting thread.

Mr Siposs: your intervention was perhaps a little unfortunate, but understandable. Like you, I would never hesitate in fighting back if someone publicly criticised my son's character. As an outsider, BM's comments didn't seem so bad to me, but I'm sure I'd feel differently if it was my son he was talking about.

BM's response was classy and I hope you two can bury the hatchet now.

Finally, I must say I wasn't too impressed with those of you who rushed to put the boot into BM after Mr Siposs's post. BM is one of the posters who makes this forum worth coming to IMO.

BM has more interesting things to say about football than most of you. I sometimes don't agree with him, and he's had a go at me on several occasions. But generally I like his style.

So, those of you who want to bag him can go stuff yourselves AFAIC.

I always found BM's comments on Siposs to be a decent form of reserved praise. Unfortunately, this is a footy forum. On footy forums, you talk s***. Often a lot of one upmanship goes on. Comes with the territory.

I can also understand Mr Siposs' retort. Seems unsurprisingly genuine and is the response that really, you would expect. Must be hard for family of players/coaches to deal with the crap that gets dished up by the media and general football public for most of the year.

I can imagine how Armo's brother must have felt over the past few seasons, being active on this forum and dealing with some of the offensive twaddle that was written about David. I hope he is now getting some satisfaction and enjoying his brother living up to his potential.

I must mention, I'm really happy for Sip...Did not know he was a saints supporter as a kid. He's living everyones (on here anyway) dream. Good luck to him.

I've been quietly excited about the kid since the first Sandy game this year. Sometimes, you just get the feeling about a kid. Watching his first couple of shots on goal....off the boot you could just tell.

I have the same feeling about Ledger.

:P

Anyhow...on with the show!

Wrong again.

I was talking about Fred Ledger, who lives in a remote area of WA without Internet access :P

Are you the forum patriarch or something? Do you realise how condescending your tone is most of the time? Or is it simply part and parcel of your 'character'?

Get a handle on things, MB.

My view.

On this team we tear ourselves and everyone around us to pieces for that inch. We claw with our fingernails for that inch.

Who cares if you are impressed? People can like and dislike whichever posters they choose. It's not up to you to decide for everyone.

So in your own words ......... go stuff yourself.

i find it funny that mr sip has 5 posts on this forum (or there abouts) has put in nothing to it because he hangs about at that other prats site and facebook page
you know
the guy here who had a breakdown banned people, spat the dummy and lied about illnesses and his positions in jobs etc
everyone remember him???
the guy who stole the name saintsfooty and said he was getting a site foing using that name etc when he didnt even own the name saintsfooty

we all remember him right???

maybe mr sip you will see the light...hopefully you already have and have nothing to do with him and his bulls***

i think your boy is going alright
looks good, doesnt panic, great leg, lets hope he can play plenty of games for us and kick plenty of goals from FF
congrats on being proud of your boy. 8-)
