Nomadic Saints

We might be crap but the Tiges can always say they have a home  :thumbsup.

They'll probably end up out at Casey Fields but it'd be ironic if the Saints land back at a redeveloped Junction Oval. It was a great place to watch footy too in the old VFL and VFA days.

Yep and I am happy to say that we will never move. We don't sell out like other clubs  ::)

I don't think they'll move - the have a 30 year lease and I reckon the council cannot afford for them to go ... a game of bluff where they are all looking like dills

this thread's title should be "Moronic Saints" - same old same old ;D

True but we're talking about local councillers who are dills  :yep

The rumour is this is a cover for blaming the Moorabbin oval surface for all their injuries.

LOL. How to stuff up a top playing list 101.

Maybe they're trying to get out of another $600,000 in unpaid rent to the council.  8)
Pretty low to play the "we're leaving" card, I think.
