Jamie Shanahan has accpeted a new part time role at the Saints in 08 helping out the backline, this will be announced 3pm Wednesday 10th October.

Source...............................Andrew Thompson (Coleague of my father) informed him when they took charge of the new look board.

Things are looking bright again at Moorabbin, good to see Westaway and his counterparts are building your club back to what it should be, a powerhouse of the AFL finally!!!!

Well done saints, great coup!!!!
 
If this is true I expect much more fists of justice from fisher, maguire and co... which will in turn win us more games
 
Terrific to have Jamie back in the fold but I would not call him one of our all time greats! He should never have left in the first place.
 
he didnt actually leave you (in terms of passing away) dont take it so harsh in why he left the club.

jamie left for family reasons and had a full-time Accouting Job Position in Wickham Finance located in DogSwamp, Perth.

I really wish people should get their facts right before they begin shooting their mouths off.

Go Blueboyzzz, your mail is quite good, I was aware of that, not sure how you knew but spot on, not a bad effort champ!!!
 
Two things here:
1. He cost us the 97 Flag
.

I was very unfortunately sitting right behind the goals in the 4th corner. What cost us the 97 GF was not dropping another quicker player back and double teaming him, or putting Shanners on the pine. Basically it was the mother of all coaching FU's

Coach at old Hailebury is not a full-time position, and the initial thread here states that Shanahan would be part-time.

Obviously would be in more of a development role ... sounds good!

Technically, was a pretty solid defender, and terrific for us for quite a while before he left.

What does Perth have to do with him leaving us to go to Melbourne?

Not sure about the alias, but the "Violent Stool" is right. Shanners left for Melbourne (longer term contract) and Ross Lyon picks the support coaches.

And yes, Stan did f#ck up in '97 as whilst Shanners had played on smaller guys before you cannot leave the 50 totally open for that ugly pr!ck Jarman to play his tricks on the big stage.
 
i thought it was well known that the communications line from the coaches box was out, and they couldn't pull the change, they didn't send a runner because they were told it would be back up in a minute...
 
Shanna is back!!!

There was a short period where Shannahan was known as the most feared fullback in the AFL. He would spoil, spoil, spoil all day.

Not his fault they put him on Jarman in the '97 Grand Final in the last QTR.

I said to my mate at the time as the players took position "What is Shannahan doing on Jarman.

The rest is history.

Great to have him back. He was part of a good team in the 1990's.
