Funny story. I thought he had already left at the end of last year and mid way through the first half of game one my mate texted me to say “oh and addo-carr is still playing for us “

was leaving but stayed for another year
Doesn't want to leave he loves the storm but has family interstate

Damn. What a beast. 48 points ahead of Roosters too now so let’s see them catch back up to our PD.

Wonder if Ned Guy’s strategy seriously was to offload cap to get Petracca and now that The Trac has signed on at Melbourne Ned is cooked?

That was the rumour.

there was a rumour that eddie personally paid off a huge debt for beams, which the AFL then ruled to be in cap. then they had to re-sign Grundy on big coin. plus moores values unexpectedly shot through the roof, which ****ed the treloar deal they had just done prior. they asked treloar to take a cut and he told em to get get ****ed. basically they were forecast over the cap massively and had to cut hard.

 

[Roddy Grant]

I don’t like the way they Hung Ned out to dry tbh.
They sure made him the Fall Guy.

ah well. Such is life.

Yeah that bus has been coming since late last year and he was definitely going under it.

 

[pebblesofsand]

That was the rumour.

Seems a fair "2 + 2 = 5" rumour - Petracca's brother works at the same Player Manager agency that Guy worked for before he got the job at Collingwood.

Man what a game... granted Souths had massive holes with injury but Bellamy is 29 out of 39 odd games against Bennett. He must hate it.

Just found this. Thats me with the great man Darrel Baldock in St Kilda when I was a kid and the other kid watching is Darrels son. My old man was mates with the Doc back in the day.

 

[kernelT]

That is so awesome saintos.

 

[Saintos The ITK]

That is so awesome saintos.

It's pretty sad really because I'm pretty sure Darrels son was killed in a car crash some time ago.

that’s awesome. Whatever happened to his son?

nvm just read the post above mine. That’s so sad

Hard to believe North were two and zip round two last year. Their sole victory since then has been against a side that at the time were winless from eight games and would go on to be zip and 13.

the quick dart in the back of the EH tops it off, great pic

Hoping Richmond can beat up Geelong tonight to soften them up for us next week, loved watching them beat up the Dogs last Friday night.

As much as I'm sick of seeing Richmond winning flags I can't help but admire the way they go about it and the tough brand of footy they play.

Wow that's some claim to fame, not many Saints fans would have a pic of themselves with the Doc back in his heyday, especially in this day and age.

 

[AFLOnline]

Does anyone actually know why we overlooked Shai Bolton? We were right into him at our pick weren’t we?

 

[plugger66]

That was one of the best ever. Unfortunately took it to easily. Look how high he was.

 

[plugger66]

They are seriously a great side.

 

[plugger66]

And because most a role players will always have heap in the cap.

 

[LiterallyNobody]

That’s mark of the year sewn up. Was in the car listening to the radio and had to stick on Kayo to check it out.

mint.

 

[bergholt]

Probably shouldn't hope Geelong lose because that makes it harder for us next week, but great to watch them get flogged.

Terrible call from BT, and then a bit later he spent some time arguing with Hodgey about the definition of an intercept mark. Usual idiocy from him.

Was a ripper call from Howie and dunstall on the ms

Because we just had to have the mighty Ben Long.

To be fair he was pick 29, we had plenty of mates.
