Past Coach Brett Ratten - set to depart NM - Thanks Ratts!

[Merlin007]

Still one of the great moments in football when the man with the ear of key people at Saint Kilda stood showboating on the goal line in a grand final only for Heath Shaw to smother.

High standards.

 

[koshari]

I hope so. I love Ratts, very good man. I fear we will lose him to better opportunities for his career. That also makes me happy.

God bless Ratts (Todd and Sonja also).

That is all.

Not being a religious man i wouldn't have put ot in the same terms but completely agree those 3 have been immensely valuable

 

[roos 10]

And Riewoldt has the dick of a midget with rickets

Nick might want to ssshhh or why he moved away might come out

 

[koshari]

Who would go out for him?

I think Phillips is playing that role. Hard to justify playing Hugh over WiPhi.

Straight swap for ccj for me.

And Rumour has it he fled to the USA after cheating with Kath loughnan and fox footy essentially dropped him

Spot on

Robbo wants us to do well, there’s no denying it.
If you still lurk on Bigfooty - cheers dude. We appreciate you

As much as Robbo cops shit, he really is one of the good guys in the AFL media. I honestly think most the hate comes from jealousy as he’s just a lad who played a bit of footy, loves the game, loves a drink and gets paid to do what we all do on here for free!

Bit more than a rumor at this stage

Wtf? How did I miss this? I mean I heard he hey diddle diddled with another woman but this is the first I’ve heard of it being Kath.

 

[Ry009]

Very rich for Riewoldt to talk about standards.

Saints were still on the grog heavily down Bayside way when I was a teen in the early-mid 2000s , then the publisided school girl stuff and the other stuff that got swept under the rug during his time.

All for a coach that dumped them like a hot potato and is nothing more than a slight upgrade on Brad Scott.

I think StKilda has leapfrogged Geelong/Hawthorn/* as my most disliked club.

Don't care if we get rolled by 10 goals for the rest of the year, I'll be happy if we do the number on those shitful campaigners this week.

If it isn't true it's a hell of a stitch up, because you'll find mentions of it being Kath in a fair few places

 

[Dingster]

Devastated for Rats today. Had LDU rightfully been able to complete that play running through the middle, we might have got it done.

 

[Horizons_00]

How did Rats get 88 tackles out of today?! Where the **** has that been?

 

[The Nostradamus]

The last dance next week for him

Lets get him a win to finish

Long chat at the end of last game. Not to worry though, normal service will likely resume next week

Clarko's return.

It’s so sad we have to have ride the emotional wave just to put in effort to win a footy game

 

[tazaa]

I wanted Ratts to win this game but f*** he cost himself at selection.
Young? Howe? and on the wing? Ziebell as sub?
Bergman and Greenwood were good to go mate.

Clarko would have had a big input I reckon

 

[Spud11]

Yeah with Howe back in, I’d say Clarko is hovering.
When you shake hands and accept the North Melbourne coaching job, 3 men in suits and sunglasses walk in with briefcases, open them and quickly spray the room with “Spud Serum”.
You could walk in being a ruthless Leigh Matthews, but when you walk out of there you are a frowning 2004 Laidley and by the end of the week you’ll have posters of Liam Anthony

It smells like a Clarko move for sure

Greenwood must not be dropped again. Absolute bullshit he was dropped for Howe ffs

You're onto something.

Remember when Crocker took over as interim coach with so much energy, so many ideas?

Before an unnamed suit put a photo of Sam Power in front of him.

And justas Darren was about to protest, the suit followed up with a photo of Darren's family and Crocker realised he wasn't exactly being "asked" to include Power in the lineup.

 

[King Corey]

Hahaha Riewoldt what a loser, has a fling with Kath Loughlan and..

Sorry what line of attack are we taking here?

Oh well, when I hear encounters like that, I just reflect on the following stats.

[tazaa]

Poor campaigner
Reckon he cost himself 4 wins at selection and not being fully immersed in game day coaching

Nice for him to step in but we need a coach whose all in and coaching like it’s life or death now
