Fraser has been placed on the long term injured list indefinately as a result of "chronic arthritic condition in his hands", that has worsened in recent weeks...

I tipped them to play off in the GF this year. They'll be lucky to make the 8 the way things are going.

Is this a legit injury, or are they just putting him on the long term list so they can upgrade a rookie, as opposed to retiring when i believe they can't upgrade anyone..

That'd be my take on it too GWW. Watch out Cain Ackland is gonna be seriously injured too soon, and young Sam Jacobs (former Eagle) will take his place...

He's not setting the world alight in the AFL, but is a very good SANFL player.

No way Jose! Fraser is finished and the Saints know it. Some good list management at St Kilda for a change. They've pulled a swifty here.

Has been a great player over the years.

Age and pain catches up with everyone.

Retired last year.

His passion for the game and the club he loves made him think he cheated the fans.

Well done FG.

Fraser "I'm not very smart but I can lift heavy things" Gehrig to concentrate on the worlds worst beard competition instead of clogging up the Saints forward line.

Great player 3 to 5 years ago but simply an embarrassment of late.

Your right there Mr66, pre-season I thought they were a good thing to push Geelong all the way but they sure have sunken into their old ways.

As a guy that i play golf with always says about the Saints (everything evolves around the Saints to him) they are a good side controlled by someone who can't coach.

They have been highly erratic for about 10 years as far as my memory goes. The seem to start each season as the "great white hope" of the Melbourne media, and then fold up.
