Re: We're still going ok
blind freddy can see that we are going ok. We always knew this year was a tougher draw, combined with the fact ALL teams now do their homework on us - and yet, we are better placed than at same time last season!! Real finals chances!! Added to that the continued improvement / development of: Carlyle...

Lol hilarious stuff Obviously you need to find another pastime - following a footy team seems to get to you. Believe what you want mate. Don't give a rats - just confirmed we have really crap supporters at our club. The worst. Reckon your old boss may have told "you to pull your head in laddy&q...

Re: Saints "supporters"
No. We are pissed off. I've supported the club for 48 years. Been a paid up member for 27. Worked for it for 14. Essendon has 16 flags. That's why their supporters keep signing up. We have one in 143 years. That's why our supporters criticise the club, as every one else in the competition does. I h...

Saints "supporters"
Really we have the worst in the AFL. The crap I have read in here lately is just astonishing. Little wonder all the old posters no longer frequent this site. Even attacking our insiders ITK types for merely posting info for you to read. How dare they!!! No wonder players are warned off social media ...

Excuse me for asking the obvious question?? If he is such a dud, then why are other clubs circling?? Must be pretty stupid wanting such a dud to play for them??

Re: On track
my two bobs worth: We ARE actually on track - I never expected finals coming into this season, 2018 was the target year for finals and I believe this will still be the case. After we beat GWS i did certainly believe we were tracking for finals this year. We are horribly out of form at present, our m...

Re: Freeman
I think we'll have to accept that if (when?) he hits the senior team, he's not going to have that pace touted in his draft year. It's very hard to do a hammy and feel like you can do burst actions without popping something again. I'll be happy with good ball user and medium pace if he can get a gam...

Re: Freeman
Freeman was very good today. Not clearly above vfl quality but he found the pill a lot. I also noticed that he pops his kicks up a bit, as if he doesn't point his toe. He is very good at lowering his eyes and spotting up with R Harvey-like 20m passes. Developing nicely and could have a very good 20...

Freeman
Word from the club is Freezer has his explosive pace back. But after his hip surgery - still has not full power in his kicking yet. Lacks penetration in his kicks. Once this is back ... look out. Another 25 touches today and in the best. Saints doing a terrific job with him. Senior footy no longer i...

Re: I have 3 months to fight the big C
Got a fair idea what you and the family are going through. We went through it too... just fight and be strong champ. Just give it your best shot.

I've already played in those games, so no backing up necessary... I played well enough... and am in season... playing both Sat and every second Sunday.

Re: Run and Gun
Mate I think you have made your point. They lost a game of footy. Has happened before. May even happen again. But let's give our coaching team a chance to review it and get it right next week. They were disappointing yep. I am betting they feel pretty crap about it too. Hickey Gawn match-up was cruc...

Re: Winning margin competition Round 1
absolutely crucial that Hickey at least breaks even with Gawn. this will give our mids a chance - and if they get a sniff - we have aerial supremacy up forward.
Tough game this one - Dees, like us, are no pushover anymore - but 20point win to us I reckon.
this will be a great game..

Re: Former Saint not in the best health
Sorry guys but I doubt anyone who saw George play could liken him to Billings. George was probably 187cm in a time when that was KPP height and rucks were 193-195cm. George was a great one on one contested mark and on the lead played FF or Tall HFF with a racking deadly left foot. Billings is a sma...

Re: Former Saint not in the best health
I think Jack Billings is a lot like George Young for those of you who never saw him play. Very highly skilled. His left foot kicking was lethal. Great hands. Just a classy player to watch. Billings can be like him. Let's hope he can be half as good at least.
