Quote ="Saddened!"Does anyone really care? Of the 14 or so proper trophies I've seen Saints win, I think I only went to one homecoming. It was a complete shambles watching drunken players show their todgers, rant incoherently down the microphone, watch their kids run round misbehaving, listen to various members of the board coming out with self gratifying speeches and listen to some random councillor gegging in on the club's achievement. What's the point?
What's far better when you win a Grand Final is to have a fry up and sit in front of your TV watching endless repeats of the final, then walk to the shop and pick up the paper, which is usually a front and back wrap of the trophy presentation. Homecomings for the Cup final aren't so bad, the weather is generally good so you can have an open day style show with various things on. Grand Final time it is ALWAYS raining and with the season finished the players will ALWAYS disgrace themselves.'"
Agree 100%.
I think with the fact that we have already had 1 homecoming this year, it is a sensible decision.
Let the players have a blowout whatever the result and have a day off on Sunday!
