Hayes and Ball

It doesn't matter, with all the delistings and retirements - it's hard to keep track

Khan wears 46, so Begley can't have the number he wore at the Lions

The only regular senior player, that might want to upgrade to a lower number could be Jones

My Suggestions/Guesses would be -
Cahill to 30
Begley to 36

Allen wears 36 doesn't he ? If they Rookie list Howard, he would keep his number

Leigh Fisher was one of the first picked, playing HBF under the old coaching panel - Last year the new coaches tried to turn him into a midfielder, tagger which didn't seem to work From memory he was dropped once or twice, then selected again and asked to tag Judd and maybe Goodes :shock: With the ...

The Rookie Draft is Tuesday 16 December, right after the Pre-season draft

I hope they take 2 x inside mids

1 tall KPB

Then best available, best recycle


If they must take another 'developing' ruck, please do it in the Rookie draft

And no outside players, or someone who will need 2 years in the gym to be ready for AFL

Thanks ausfatcat.........

I know players need permission to train from the AFL

From that list of 'Draft Nominees - Delisted Players' - there are about 12 doing pre-season with clubs

To be honest, the only ones that have any value to any club would be and where they could possibly going by what they need Greg Bentley- Melbourne Leigh Brown- Bulldogs Nathan Carrol- Saints Nick Davis- Lions Courtney Johns- Demons Matthew Moody- Freo Tom Hislop- Saints, Freo, Carlton Tim Clarke- S...

Michael Roberts #10

Couldn't agree more saint66au.....also nothing more annoying than post subjects that don't state the topic

Yep, rest 35 for a while - then give it to someone who is worthy

4 and 9 might be given out next year

Thanks for posting that st byron, don't see much from the WA media here in Vic

Yes I believe he was offered the forward coach role with the Saints

If they don't find anyone suitable, maybe Lyon will do the midfield himself and hire a new forward coach

Yes no one listed for the Saints yet - on BF, a poster said that Nathan Batsanis and Ryan Jackson were going to do pre-season with the Saints

I also complained about the selection at the time - nothing against Howard - but for taking a project player at such a high pick, when there were more highly rated players available IMO

They could have taken him with the last ND pick or as a rookie

Anyway, I hope he plays 100 games

Couldn't agree more - no players who will need 2 years in the gym to be ready for AFL

If they want a 'development' player, use the Rookie draft

Any relation to Max Middleton - keyboard player in various 80's bands ??


I don't really want Nathan Carroll at the Saints - but shivers, I wouldn't be sending emails to the CEO

I will never understand why Birss was not seen as a member of our starting 22, it is simply beyond me, I believe he had a definite role as a forward tagger who could snag a couple of goals.... He probably wont be picked up again and that is a shame, he could have been a valuble player even if he wa...

I think the club needs to and will think in a systemic manner about all these delisted players........ Now, my thoughts are: Damon White (Port) - too old - He's about 25 :shock: The only ones delisted so far I would consider, based on Saints needs are: Wade Mills, key back, Gary Moss, mid and Damon...
