Re: Draft Target
Josh Weddle is a big chance for our 2nd pick - we are trying to package up picks to get higher as Josh may go high teens range. Roughy a big fan - this came from his dad. Saints have interviewed Josh many times. Essendon and Dogs also keen.

Re: Pressure Points - How are they measured?
The points system is a key tool for clubs and awards appropriately weighted points for each of the four 'pressure acts'. Points are awarded for corralling (1.2), chasing (1.5), closing (2.75) and physical pressure (3.75). The impact of physically influencing a contest is seen over 3 times as critica...

Re: VFL RD 7 - Sandringham vs Tigers ( Werribee)
Blake Acres still looks a little off being a regular seniors for mine after seeing him at Sandy. I tried to get a comparison with Jamie Cripps out of my head but it stuck - you know, great talent, creative, errant disposal at times. I would use that comparison at the same stage of their careers when...

Re: Pick 14
Saints were very into Clayton Oliver early in year at Murray Bushrangers as confirmed by their staff. Obviously we talk to lots of players but Oliver won't be a surprise if called at # 14. Pace early in the year was said to be the knock, but his year developed strongly from that point - played a few...

Re: Positives : against the cheats.
I compared the Collingwood game to the Essendon game. We spread the load a little more against Bombers.

Re: a Last chance to see Lenny -Country Victoria
Lenny has a 12 month gig with the AFL and won't be an assistant coach in 2015. In regards to coaching, Lenny said he wasn't (currently) attracted to the coaching video reviews and spending loads of extra time at the club. I think Cameron Ling said the same type of thing. Lenny is looking most of all...

Re: Richo's post- match video
Turnovers.....16 goals 1 behind....its clear Richo is clearly frustrated with the defensive pressure, something that he prides his team as showing week in, week out. Turnovers are the result of intensity, poor skills (coughing ball up under pressure, real or perceived) and then an inability to defen...

Re: Geez Hawthorn look good.
Hawks had 4 coast-to-coast goals against Richmond and caned them around the stoppages as well (7 goals). Their ability to link with foot is unquestioned. Turnover wise Geelong did a number on them and also Richmond were respectable. Getting it off them can impact the scoreboard. They are so skilled ...

Its all to do with quality possession and in a low scoring game, some moments that 'sword' the opposition really stand out. The possession game worked well too -as you outlined.

Re: disposal efficiency
The real picture is that the game is evolving and the simple, over-used stats don't! This year, as outlined on AFL website, the long kick to break open the "rolling mauls" is becoming a game breaker. Speed, run and carry and long kicking are becoming vital. From Monday night, the bouncing ...

On SEN tonight they mentioned "Pick 13 and a player for Josh Caddy & Hickey"
No word on 'the player' from Saints
Would we do it if it was a Ray / Gram / Jones / Raph / Kosi deal ?
