[Bowey Boy]

Article at the Hun that I cannot access due to my poor financial circumstances

Anyone able to give a summary without breeching copyright laws? Another article there where Grant Thomas lets loose. I think change is brewing big time.

Horrible reading...even though every club could have a list of poor decisions, it is hard to imagine many compare with ours.
My confidence in the decision makers of this club is absolutely gone.
The Hannebery farce being the latest example...if people dont see the stupidity of it, what an obvious example of desperation it would be to hand over good money for old rope....then I dont know what will.....it should be Point 19 on the list above.

"12. The Saints hand over pick No.16 in the 2009 national draft for Essendon midfielder Andrew Lovett. He failed to play a AFL game for the Saints."

How is this something that happened since 2011?

[Bernard Shakey]

Very poor journalism by a bunch of hacks.

Saints make surprise call to select Paddy at number one - no surprise at all.

Saints take Billings ahead of Bontempelli - so would at least 60% of other teams.

Tom Lynch moved on to Adelaide - He walked because Ross wouldn't play him.

It's actually better/worse than that - it's widely acknowledged that only Derek Hine (Pies) and Simon Dalrymple (Dogs) were going to take Bontempelli at all in the first round - let alone ahead of Billings at pick 3.

Haha, you can't make up the rubbish Jon Ralph spits out!

[Saint wagga]

Whichever way you look at it, it’s pretty damning stuff and just adds more momentum to this snowballing feeling that all hell will break loose come seasons end!

Correct. A lot of it is crap and selective, and there is no context.

The business of the Herald Pun is tabloid journalism; it's not meaningful analysis. Wrong market segment.

It’s tabloid journalism but Malthouse Hannebery comment is bang on
Dumb decision
What scared me is when someone alluded to the fact that he has close private school boy links to Lethlean....then I hear of our new no name list manager, again private school links and I start to wonder.....
Don’t Fock it up Simon or we’ll be more p!ssed than wifey after your last saga I can tell you..

No he is not. No 12 is there all right after the first no 12 and before no 13.

12. Forward Tom Lynch is moved on to Adelaide for pick No.37 in 2011.

There are two no. 12's ..Fuckwits.

Correct...#12. Lovett is online only.

You could compile a similar list of any club, but why limit it to 18? I'm sure we 've come up with a few more on here over the years
