Hey @stkildafc I don’t mean to be rude but you keep playing the music after goals, which no one ever asked for, and it’s really taking away from any atmosphere and is comically long and loud and it’s embarrassing. #AFLSaintsDees #AFL

That Higgins goal was one of those moments that rip open the fabric of footy space and time. It just…happens and that is your footy reality all of a sudden. Happens in microdoses in every contest when there’s a small knock-on just to right place. And it happened at that moment.

Paddy Ryder in a St Kilda jumper was a rare joy of the Post-GT and Ross Eras Era. There was something so un-St Kilda-like about him. I can’t believe he played for St Kilda, wearing a St Kilda jumper.
