Borderline Bullying some of the crap that he copsStC is part of the furniture of the BF Saints board. I can remember him posting on here for as long as I’ve been around.
I never take anyone’s footy opinion to heart no matter how much I disagree. What I don’t accept is personal attacks because you don’t agree with someone else’s opinion. StC cops personal attacks more than anyone & bounces back up like a true champ.
Couldn’t care less who is a member, who isn’t a member, who supports Richo, who doesn’t support Richo. Play the ball.
Yes that was rubbishUnderstand your point of view George, but boy I would rather read about his point of view of the club then the continuous admit you're wrong, admit you're wrong crap that went on all day
ExpectedYes that was rubbish
I thought it was over the top. Ask him once. If he doesn't say anything move on.Expected
That’s what you can do. Of course you thought it was over the topI thought it was over the top. Ask him once. If he doesn't say anything move on.

By the way speak about Dixon, with being the worse side in the league for conversion were is the spot light on him. Just because he is a media darling it seems everyone doesn't want to touch that subject. He should be the first person to be given the flick and I'm still gobsmacked that he is zapping the confidence out of our side.
Sorry mate , i dont agree with Trav on everything he posts but he is 100% right here IMOok mate
This year he has Finnis firmly in his sights for falling asleep at the wheel on football matters and I for one aren’t dismissing him at all but it is rubbing many up the wrong way.
again i have no issue on a person deciding they have had enough .. i think its strange to post it in a way that makes it a badge of honour but on we go ..I’m not sure I like the way StCicatriz is being painted in this conversation. It’s too simplistic to paint him (or anyone) as more or less of a “real” supporter based on whether or not they are a member.
To give him credit and whether you agree with him or not, St C is very clear on what he thinks the issue is with our club. And I have no doubt at all that he is just as clear when he talks with our membership department. We need supporters like him and I have a lot of respect for the likes of him and Mowman that took the time to articulate their (in my view) warranted concerns about the club and what they were doing wrong last year.
Just as I have enormous respect for the posters on here that give their time at the club and give us an insight on what is going on there.
St C is a funny one because, when I was a fully-fledged member of the “the club is on the right track, road to 2018 here we come" his posting would rub me the wrong way. But when you look back on it, he hasn’t been wrong on too much really. He went earlier than anyone on the “our development is way behind other clubs” well before others did. Just maybe he knows about this from watching his local club closely? I have little doubt now that what he’s been saying for a long time (that he’d trust his local WAFL club to develop young talent more than St Kilda) is 100% on the money for what it’s worth.
This year he has Finnis firmly in his sights for falling asleep at the wheel on football matters and I for one aren’t dismissing him at all but it is rubbing many up the wrong way.
For what it’s worth, I think how the club has handled Richo and football matters looks worse by the year and I worry we are still in for a world of pain until Richo is replaced at the very least. Largely because of this, I downgraded my and my wife’s membership last year and this year after going all in with the most expensive membership and social club package I could from 2012 onward (because I BELIEVED in the road to 2018 and thought the club could use the extra cash). I never get to games being overseas and my Swedish wife has never seen a game live so it’s a donation…. But I’d give the same and more in the future if I saw what I consider to be competent FOOTBALL decisions made about coaching and other things.
This club is at a serious crossroads in my opinion. For me, it reminds me of an addicted family member that keeps messing up and promises they will get better. Some members of the family will say “you have to stick by them no matter what”. Others will have limits and say “we need to let them hit rock-bottom, we need to stop enabling them”. No one is wrong in this situation, both are done from a place of love.
I personally think strongly articulating their dissatisfaction with decisions the club has made like St C and Mowman have done is better for the health of the club than just giving money to the club silently. And it’s probably better for their mental health as well.
At the end of the day, St Kilda is a family member for pretty much all of us and it is no wonder given the years since 2010 we are struggling to keep the faith. But there is no need to turn on other supporters and question their love for the club because they have a different set of beliefs about how to turn things around.
rubish... he like anyone on here makes a comment and its either supported or not if not its discussed the continual back and forward over the comment is not bullying ... no one has posted out of the blue anything hurtful to him .. no one has attacked him .. even pluggs who perhaps goes the hardest on trying to get people to admit they are wrong has stuck to the comment not the person ...Borderline Bullying some of the crap that he cops
it was over the top Pluggs ... hence i said "let it go"That’s what you can do. Of course you thought it was over the top
2 out of three aint bad .... personally i think in 20 years time we will look back at this era and what Finnis has done for the long term survival of our club and he would be deserving of a stand named after him ...Jeeeeez did I open up a can of worms with this thread!

thats how much i rate the moorabbin move in the importance of our club ...
And yet you are the one who keeps it going. I don’t tell you how to post so please don’t tell me. As if I’m going to take any notice of it. I do take notice of people I know. We are all just a bullshit name on the internet.it was over the top Pluggs ... hence i said "let it go"
we have had our run ins before where you are like a dog with a bone on something ... its not a point scoring thing sometimes it would be good if your posting style would let things through to the keeper every now and then ... really in the grand picture of it what you kept on banging on for him to admit was not exactly pivital information
