Re: Sam Fisher off field issues?

Yes K, now that I think about it they were living together not long ago, although I think it was temporary while Chips' house was being built or something. But Gram did one of those segments where you take a camera around your house to show off, and Chips was definitely living there at the time.

Re: Sam Fisher off field issues?

More BS coming out of Caro? Surely there'll be more to come. I don't rate Caro, but surely she wouldn't just throw out a name for absolutely no reason. No idea what the offence is, could be very minor, could be very serious. But one thing is for sure I think- Sam Fisher's name is about to be dragge...

Complete guess and probably entirely wrong, however it would fit.

Re: Nathan Wright !!

According to a mate who played a lot with Nath, he's a good player and a good guy but is prone to turning it over.

Wright comes from a good suburb. Was a good junior footballer, haven't seen him play for a couple of years though.

Re: Clurey... call his name!

Can't believe we passed on Clurey. I think Mcintosh, Smith, Close, Temmay all going before our next pick left us in a state of confusion. You'd have to say at this stage the draft really hasn't gone the way we would have liked. Interesting to see Garlett, Membrey and Graham all still there. Would lo...

Re: Clurey... call his name!

You'd think they will. O'Brien not called yet either. We might want a midfielder, but I wouldn't be surprised if we went two talls in Clurey and O'Brien!

Had a dream that we drafted Smith and Wright. I must admit, I'd feel kind of underwhelmed if that turns out to be the case.

Re: Tom Hickey with Milney

He has one of those outstanding personalities for that sort of thing. He did a fair bit of it up on the GC and was always very funny.

TDL and Lee also did an interview with Milney, all of them are quite funny in parts (mostly due to Tippa)

Re: Captain 2013 and beyond.

He's young enough to lead the team for a long time. He's in the leadership group and throughout juniors and into AFL level he has shown great leadership. Players and club officials have also said at times that they think he'd make a great captain. There's no assurances, but you'd have to think McEvo...

Now that Jason Gram is gone we have an obvious need to draft Nick Graham.

Re: Draft strategy

With 24 and 25, we have the chance to grab two fairly highly rated players. The top 30 are probably as follows: Broomhead Clurey Colquhoun Garlett Garner Graham Grundy Haynes Hrovat Jaksch Kennedy Lonergan Macrae Mayes Membrey Menzel O’Rourke Plowman Pongracic Shaw Simpson Smith Stringer Toumpas Vla...

What SaintDal was saying, is that pick 88 was used in about 4 trades. He/she was just correcting Ace's point that "Not one round 5 pick was included in any trade"

Why are they so intent on Brown - anyone know? Saints or Eagles? Saints- Good size, good age, already developed, quite talented. Will come in and play for the next 8 years hopefully. Eagles - He is their ONLY suitable replacement for Glass, McKenzie and Schoefield. If you take Brown out of their li...

Re: Rumour Thread

Anyway, Collingwood have 18, 19, 21, and 42 before 48. I would be insisting on something better from them, like they always do. Would be happy if they upgraded pick #25/26. CJ isn't worth all that much given his age and his playing weaknesses. Try and get pick #18, although 21 for CJ and 26 is more...

Saints offer Pick #25 and Cripps for Brown

According to Liam Pickering (Mitch's Manager) on TWR.

West Coast don't think it's fair according to Pickers, although he added that personally he thinks it's fair.


I think this is the first offical confirmation of what we've offered?

Re: Broughton to Suns ??

He's okay, but we have enough HBFers.

What I'm concerned about, is that apparently Freo are getting pick 13 for him. If that's true, then it's just f***ed. Because he's worth no where near that. Players of his type are a dime-a-dozen.

Pretty sure, west coast won't be giving us their first 2 picks in the draft, for a guy they will take at pick 135. They're only giving us pick #41 in this situation, and downgrading #44 by 3 spots.
