Always

Never read a book In my life but wrote one in form 3 when the teacher realised what I was talking about wasn’t a book. She made me write it. Think I failed on both accounts.

Said it after last night's game but gee we turn Marvel into a fortress when we are up and about. We lift the roof on the joint

 

[plugger66]

Seriously, how the f**k did this group not win a flag? I know I am biased, but would have to be the best team never to win one ...

2005 was clearly a better side and by a margin.

Have a go at Blood Meridiun by Cormak McCarthy it’s the most depressive and yet fantastic read ever.

Yeah, I like Cormack Mc Carthy. Read the Road and a couple of those cowboy epic ones. He's a good writer.

 

[gringo2011]

It's really ******* sad to be honest. Cooped at home, drinking beer and watching a game from 10 years ago. Plus things will only get worse in the next few months.

The world is in trouble.

That's my dream life.

righto 2005 Saints v 2009 Saints

[Mowman]

Wouldn't mind a Kebab about now

I will vote first. 2009 because many think I’m a troll. Seriously 2005 was so much better imo of course

McCarthy, damn you're tough
If I'm in the mood for Grit Lit Clayton Lindemuth, and the Baer Crichton books, redneck trash with no manners whatsoever, reminds me of home

 

[Hubnester]

Geez we had some good teams back in the day.

Probably but the injuries and competition were a bit worse. 2009 we had a very good finals ready side with a good age profile.

Just been to Aldi at 8 a.m. New restrictions mean you have to queue to get in, then it's one in one out. The floor is marked out for social distancing when paying and you have to unpack your shopping outside. It seems we are one step from rationing!

Beyond the supermarkets, however, the streets are deserted. It's like 28 Days Later!

Not sure about that. Geelong had many all Australians. 2005 was Stkildas best side

I don't think we will get near that

Mooney was such a ********. So arrogant for such an average player.

05 more pure talent, but 09 was a better football team.

As much as I loved Harvey, GTrain, Aussie, Hamill, Powell, Penny, Thompson, Guerra, pre OP Luke Ball and pre concussion Kozy, 09 probably gets the job done. Just a harder, smarter, more seasoned unit.

Plus the 09 team has prime Lenny. That beats all

Good idea for a discussion. We need line ups for reference tho to discuss match ups

Lenny .....my favorite of all time; hard / talented / had time / used the ball so well

Oh to have more Lenny's

 

[gringo2011]

I'd take a devastating loss in a GF again if we were a force again. Football was so good when we were winning all the time.

 

[MUFKilda]

Would have to be the case that the country is in lockdown, everyone is indoors and the pubs closed, just when we get some rare lovely weather.

Honestly haven't felt the same about footy since he retired. Club lost its soul that day. Still trying to find it.

Yep agree

Little the same for me, has never been the same since Lenny left

Toilet paper and hand wash already limited to two each. Never thought I'd regard wiping my arse as a luxury activity
