    Feel sorry for Dempster....

    ....obviously not confirmed as yet, but it looks like an ACL to me.

    I was certainly sad to see him and Schneider go at the start of the season seeing as we don't trade off to many players. Hopefully it's not to bad for Sean as he has settled into the Saints defence nicely.

      Confirmed ACL.

      His second half of the year has been real solid and you have to feel sorry for him. I know he no longer plays for us, but he is just one of those guys it's hard to not like.

      That's the way i feel anyway.

        Yeah, feel very sorry for the guy. Copping that in round 22 with your team in the top 4 really sucks.

          Crappy crappy timing for Sean. Rotten thing to happen.

            That's a tragedy. I really feel for the guy this morning. He deserves better than this rotten luck. I'll think he'll make it back though, and a better player.
            He had observed that people who did lie were, on the whole, more resourceful and ambitious and successful than people who did not lie.

              I was really dissapointed for him- terrible timing, apart from missing the finals he will presumably miss a chunk of next year too?
              I knew him as a gentle young man, I cannot say for sure the reasons for his decline
              We watched him fade before our very eyes, and years before his time

                Yes, unless he goes the Eski Option - but I doubt the Saints would cough up the extra I assume it would cost.
                He reminds him of the guys, close-set, slow, and never rattled, who were play-makers on the team. (John Updike, seeing Josh Kennedy in a crystal ball)

                  I was disappointed when he was traded. I really feel sorry for him now, I hope he can overcome it and come back playing good football again.

                        It was rotten luck for him. I've been following his and Schneiderman's fortunes all year and was pleased that they were settled in the 22. Still hard to accept that we let them go for virtually nothing.

                          Given that we had had to play plodders Luke Brennan & Heath Grundy in defence, I still question the reasons as to why Roos decided to get rid of him. We BADLY lack pace in our forays out of defence. And one think Titring had was plenty of pace.

                          At least he'll have Andrew Ericsson to console him, living in Melbourne these days.
