Is he the greatest Saint ever? IMHO yes but really it's between him and Lockett. The rest aren't in the same class and to even mention Riewoldt is ridiculous.

Mmmmmm......
Let's see what I've done to rank at No.9
Have I pissfarted and buggerised around for 100+ years?
Have I continually and wilfully refused to be a success?
Have I thrown away (the very rare) gold plated chances at winning GFs?
Have I embarrassed and humiliated my supporters for decades when I petulantly throw away victory after victory?
Do I have any clue what it takes to be a power club?
Do I want to be a power club?
Will I continue to spitefully dismiss any chance of success in the next 100+ years?

Thanks for the ranking mal, but I don't think I'd make a good saint as I have been successful and played in three premierships during my long career.
They were in the Under 12's and two in the lower grades of the VAFA, and even these clubs were far more professional in their approach to success than that obscene joke that runs around the AFL.

You did jump off the Saints because you can't handle supporting a team which doesn't win every week so that is about as pissweak as the Sainters have been in their 100+ years.

Masochism wears thin after enough time for anyone..

Spot on Psyber.
I just wonder how long Roostermarty could smack himself in the forehead with a hammer before he realises it hurts and is not conducive to good health.
