Easily beating by Goodard, and he is just a developing kid. Redpath bigger spud than Liam Jones

This is nice, but Redpath has never played StKilda ... was this VFL??

You guys melt best though.
Must be your victim mentality.
Victim mentality? Please I've never seen fans like saints fans get all defensive and jump down opposition supporters throats when they actually try and praise the club. Some freo and Melbourne fans have been attacked for being diplomatic! Just check out the st Kilda progress thread
 
They get shitty because people talk up the Dogs young talent and not the Saints .......

People have been talking up our young talent after we beat Geelong, the team that flogged your team the week before.
 
I mean, he could still turn out to be a good player and worth the money (although I strongly doubt it), but there's a reason you don't usually give a million bucks a year to a 20 year old unless you know they're a true professional. And you probably can't know they're a true professional unless you've seen them first hand at your club. And that's why trading for a 20 year old and giving him a million bucks a year is very risky.

Boo Riewoldt, booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Pathetic cry babies. Everyone else's fault you cant make a GF. We get there but were beaten fair and square. We don't need to BOOOOOOOO champions like Bulldog victim mentality flogs.

But then again anyone who would boo Rob Harvey winning the Fairest and Best Award would be low enough to do that to any champion.

Lets be serious. Boyd will probably end up being a very good forward. At the moment it looks bad, but a long way to go. Still the money they shelled out will have serious repercussions in getting OOC players from other clubs.

Ooooh you must be the better team then ... :eek:

Saints fans haven't disappointed in this thread have they?? :o It's like Christmas for some of them :p

There aren't many of us who booed Riewoldt. In fact on our board we were saying we hope no one boos him when we played this year. I was also at the game and saw plenty of dogs fans applauding him on and off the ground. So if you want to group us all together and call us flogs because of a few stupid, idiotic fans then I can do the same and call all saints fans flogs because of you.

And btw you've turned a diplomatic response into an attack again....

Eased into a champion side.

And never forget he was so bad early on he was hand balling shots 30m out to his teammates. But let's all agree he really hit the ground running and was a champion from day dot :rolleyes:



Google is your friend



I'll go Scully



Jesus. Let's all take a minute to gather ourselves.



And you went again. You're not very good at this, are you?

Let's say he was eased into a very good side, Geelong were never a champion side in that era. Champion sides win back to back or triple premierships. Hawkins did play 24 games in 2009 ( A Premiership year) in just his 3rd season. He won the B&F and was All Australian in his 6th year. I guess Boyd still has time?
My bet is he won't make it and will be out of the "Kennel" by the end of 2018 or sooner if today is any indication. Boyd is young enough to come good, but i doubt the Dogs will see the benefit and today's revelations indicate an early discipline issue. IMO the Dogs have better options.

St Kilda are 5 years in to their 40 year rebuild. Fans need something to make their days less painful. I understand.

Not a good look for Boyd.

On the field... he's tall and he puts in effort, so I think he will come good eventually.

Only took about four pages today before we were rewarded with the indisputably saddest refrain among all supporters: the 'Aints' "well at least we lose grand finals" brag.

Never change haha
 
I wish. Bieber is actually successful.

He's shaping up more like this bloke

I think the main point is your original post implied that Collingwood paid two first rounders for Treloar, when in fact they paid two first rounders for Treloar and pick 28. There's a significant difference between those two statements, and failing to mention that the deal involved a second round pick going to the magpies is blatantly misleading.

As for the point you were originally making, are you really trying to say that Collingwood trading two firsts for Treloar, who is comfortably the second best player on our list now, and a second round pick, is anywhere near comparable to trading pick 6 and one of your best mids (and club captain) for a first year player, who had yet to establish himself as even a best 22 player, on a million dollar contract?

Don't get me wrong here, I actually think Boyd has the tools to develop in to one of the better key forwards in the game, but don't try to deflect the ludicrous price your club paid for that deal by using the Treloar trade. You're just embarrassing yourself.
I didn't make the original post. Did you just see the Bulldog logo and assume we are all one person? My point was only in regard to the comment that Collingwood DIDNT pay 2 1st round picks- you did, and I said you got a 2nd rd in return. I'm not even vaguely embarrassed by any point I have made on this forum.
 
****, not smart Tom ..... like there's not enough pressure on him already :( Some Saints fans here will get there jollies over this :eek:

Don't know about that. I'm impressed that the boy has shown some. If a touch misdirected.

Now if the doggies can tap in to it on game day they may actually have something.
