Rohan is from Cobden in the Western District and his father was on the Saints list back in the 80's - 1985 at a guess ??? :shock: (but I think he only played reserves - recruited by Ian Stewart)

I'm nervous as well only. It doesn't make sense as we should romp in. Perhaps its because I have a friend who is a mad Tiger and I have been giving it to him (after many years of him doing the same :D I envy Saints supporters who can logically & confidentally say "No problems today - easy&q...

Re: We need to make a few changes this week

Our form has been poor for a good 5 weeks now so its time to look at other players from our seconds. Sandy havent been travelling well but as we dont see who plays well or poorly in a much lower competition I would think at least 3 new faces are needed this week. There are the obvious ones that wil...

Interesting stat about Blakes effective kicks - based on that I am not sure why I go into a panic everytime he does kick it :D "I scream at the tele give it to Dal, give it to Goddard " Even so he is a very versatile & much under rated player

For a 19 year old ruckmen he is is progressing O.K - the more senior game time he gets the better his development. Still our number 3 ruckmen but I am certainly not devestated when he is called up to play for the Saints.

I am concerned that the game may have passed Stevie by - I hope like hell I am wrong. Early in the season he seemed to be getting to the contests - spoiling,tackling, blocking, desperate lunges etc and his possession was a lot surer and cleaner.
Lately this certainly isn't the case.

I had already dropped him for next week. The forward line functioned better when he was sitting on the bench ..... then those two plays. But I still think Maguire would be a better choice. Gwilt simply does not throw his weight around enough. He did not get front and centre when the big guys were i...

What are you guys on. They had 2 injured before half time and finished with 17. If we had that many injuries whan we were 4 goals down we lose the game. It is that simple. If anyone thinks it didnt have an effect you do not understand footy today. A pretty long bow to say 2 before half time - I thi...

Missing targets with his kicks was a major problem - has improved heaps in this area (as well improving in most departments) He is as tough as a cats head - bounces back after getting knocked a*** over.

I believe he did have injury issues with his shoulder.

However I do know that J.B did come over to S.A to watch him play - so he must have been on the radar.
