Big Ron fan Posted 9 December, 2009 Share Posted 9 December, 2009 Not surprisingly, the players being nominated have, between them, barely played a game for Saints in the second half of the decade. Everyone should make a post May 2005 nomination in each category, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
