Re: Saints' big call unravels

I was under the impression Lovett asked to be traded - at least that's the theme of an SEN interview Knights gave just after the season finished...and that they were happy to assist Andrew find a new club.

Would Essendon have extended his contract if he didn't ask to be traded?

No, Matthew Knights was prepared to move Lovett on at all costs.

If I have to hear the term ''Saints Footy'' ''Due Dilligence'' one more time In the mortal words of Wallace ''I'll spew up''Never heard so much PR spin and Bull****.Heard some hilarious content on the Saints Propoganda network [SEN} last night one of their overnight presenters claimed Stkilda did the right thing asking Knights his thoughts on the Saints picking up Lovett! Stay tuned for more propoganda

poster just said out site was balanced and fair in the Lovett drama! Mind you the next post was making some unfunny joke on the income levels of our supporters! If we get someone from Sainsational on here we could arrange a scheme of arrangement for payment like say 8 cents in the Dollar.

Please only discuss the facts of this as they have been reported. We cannot have speculation with the source of this being a friend of a friend etc.

It's a serious charge and we cannot discuss any rumours about innocence or otherwise.

Saints to part ways with Ratten after review

BRETT Ratten is set to depart as St Kilda coach.

AFL.com.au understands the Saints are set to part ways with Ratten, having gone through a recent review of the club's football operations.

It comes just months after he signed a two-year extension with the Saints in July through to the end of 2024.

Ratten had been St Kilda coach for three full seasons since taking over from Alan Richardson, steering the club into the finals in 2020 but missing the top eight in the following two years.

It follows a quiet Continental Tyres AFL Trade Period for the club, which just missed out in its pursuit of Collingwood free agent Jordan De Goey.

Ratten was in his second stint as a senior coach, having led Carlton from 2007-12 before he was cut by the Blues, where he was a champion midfielder.
