Nobodies second team is St Kilda. Is it?

Nope really don't like the saints at all, i don't hate them like i do Essendon, but there a pretty boring club. crap jumper, crap colours, crap mascot or nickname, crap theme song and derived of success, at least we had our good run in the fitness and sixties.

I think the problem people have with the St Kilda board is that, until McClure broke the story that you were taking McCartin - Petracca was an absolute hero. The supporters made a damned good show of damage control after that, where he went from a Dangerfield clone to having worse hips than Toumpas, no tank, and a worse alleged attitude than pre-draft Jack Darling.Just thought I'd drop by and thank the lads for coming to our board and stirring the pot.
Good to know people can derive so much confidence from a draft.
Unfortunately it doesn't always pan out the way you want, as was the case with our club in the early 2000s when Mark Thompson said " everyone is raving about St.Kildas kids, well we're pretty happy with ours too" and well the rest is history.
Do you really expect us to sit back and praise another clubs player? Of course we are going to find reasons why the club didn't pick Petracca.it actually makes a lot more sense now the club has told us.I think the problem people have with the St Kilda board is that, until McClure broke the story that you were taking McCartin - Petracca was an absolute hero.

It's like, rather than Bains and Elshaug deciding that Patty was the better fit, Christian was such a shit bloke that you were forced to overlook him. The schaudenfreude is pretty awful.
I don't agree with trolling team boards as a general rule, but I think you'll find those who chose to stir the pot on your board were responding to ridiculous posts that were cheering on Petracca supposedly pulling out of his first training session, which is false.Just thought I'd drop by and thank the lads for coming to our board and stirring the pot.

What did the club tell you, exactly?Do you really expect us to sit back and praise another clubs player? Of course we are going to find reasons why the club didn't pick Petracca.it actually makes a lot more sense now the club has told us.
As for people having a problem with our board, fair duece to you all, express your feelings over here. Don't come on our board then come back and gloat about it. It's rather pathetic.
To be clear I was the one who posted that Petracca pulled out of his first session. And to further be clear, as I explained in a further post and also quoted one of your supporters who called bullshit on me, I was going off second hand news from my mate (melbourne supporter) who was at the training.
Nice mature response there buddy. See ya laterWell now you're clear...
Jog on superstar

tasmanlvr attends almost every training session and writes up on them. He'll confirm to you that Petracca didn't pull out.To be clear I was the one who posted that Petracca pulled out of his first session.

Yeh he did on our board, hence why I explained how I got the news. Anyway it was the kids first session, he struggled, it'll have absolutely 0 impact on his career.tasmanlvr attends almost every training session and writes up on them. He'll confirm to you that Petracca didn't pull out.
The club said that as we drafted 3 mids (5 if you include Templeton & Weller) last year, and that the next 2 drafts are extremely light on for key position players that McCartin was the best available player...(for us). They club don't want have to pay extreme to get a key forward in (bulldogs & Boyd example) so we drafted one.What did the club tell you, exactly?
Great call.A kid from Canberra (Aaron Vanderberg) met with Melbourne FC yesterday. He maybe that pick ND53, PSD2 or more probable a Rookie pick. Won the last 2 B&F's at the Ainslie Football Club and has a great tank and good disposal. Can also kick goals when moved forward. Don't be surprised if his wearing Melbourne colours next year.
Great call.
