The Man from Monarch
The Man from Monarch Cakes knows a thing or two about footy. I reckon he knows more about the Saints than the rest of us combined.
He told me that when Ross Lyon was reappointed he sighed, dropped his head and quietly wrote off the next couple of years as a waste of time.
“And I don’t have much of it left to waste,” he added. “A leopard never changes it spots and you don’t win games of footy these days without scoring.”
On Sunday, the Saints kicked 54 points, 3 of those in a dismal 40 minutes after Max King shanked the easiest shot at goal you can ever hope to be gifted for a woeful behind.
As I said, knows a thing or two about footy the Man from Monarch Cakes.
