Cahill got a bit of the pill early in the intraclub game and offers another lead up option. Hard to judge him on 5 minutes of the game against Freo. Trying too hard would be my thoughts!

Think for his height Cahill could offer us options. If he gets his body right and can add bulk he's a chance.

The club says it has maintained its focus but perhaps last night the distraction and strain of it all maybe began to show. .....what a bollocks conclusion that is ! Maybe start with the fact that we were 2nd up after a spirited game against The Filth and a lot of players looked down. Then add in the...

New Reserved seats must be taking some time - I haven't seen my membership yet. It was "printing"

However, at the intraclub the membership dept can confirm if you have or have not been lucky enough to get a seat. I have been told my seat number but no membership.

Mine hasnt arrived either - I checked with the Club at the Intraclub and it was "printing". Therefore I didnt check PO Box every day as I had been. What is different between the Saints membership and Luke Ball/Andrew Lovett?? Membership - at least you know it will arrive, will behave like ...

I thought Jack Steven was outstanding and seemed to get better the longer the game went. Midfield time already was interesting. Reminds me in style of a Jimmy Bartel - unobtrusive but gets the job done and creative. Dosen't seem to have massive pace but can find the footy. Theres been a bit of talk ...

There's a difference between being not Guilty and not being charged in any case. The evidence may not hold up and to get a jury to convict beyond reasonable doubt may be difficult. Different issue to whether an individual did or did not commit a crime. Agree on length of time of all of this. From la...

AFL Coaches are more "managers" of players that walk through the door, especially as game time accounts for such a small component of life as an AFL footballer. I found these two quotes symbolic of the whole AL saga. "Come back from training and see how they present and see their mind...

Peoples ! Two issues here, one a serious accusation laid against a player and the one missing all the focus is that what has been reported as the Saints coach laying down the law to his charges as a plea for the strength and fabric of the club. If the reports are anywhere near true this is open defi...

+1 or is that -1 ?

The Filth can't find their seats at the ground so how they going to find a balanced argument ??

Oh be hell with it, I'm sending Tommy Tank in. Foz wonders if the Tank may be unveiled Round 3 starting just off the top of the Square. Bounce down....Luke, Luke, look out!!

Or say how many years coaching experience have we got ?

Elshaugh, Lyon, Silvagni, Royal, Lovell

Tommy Hawkins seems so lame, so slow, in comparison.

Theres only ONE Tommy!

Maybe i was young but it was a cracker - at the game i remember being in Cheer Squad with flag size that would be outlawed today by 3000% and celebrating all the early goals...the sniff of September grass, first finals for decades. Can't bottle Saints supporters expectations> i felt it so much at th...

From the East Perth article... Last night Mark Hutchings was announced captain of the State 18's with fellow East Perth player Mitch Duncan named vice captain along with Kane Lucas and Brad Sheppard from East Fremantle Mitch Duncan sort by Saints, taken by cats 2nd round. The other two went 1st roun...

Eddy because hes very well respected by the coaches :roll: No seriously I'd think Goddard would be very well suited and needs to be added now. If nothing else he has shown great loyalty & devotion to the club and plays with passion that we need. I also think the struggle he fought being #1 pick ...

Didn't Goose tell a younger Gilbert he can't have his spot at CHB because of his 'spaghetti arms' ? I can't wait to see how Gilbo turns out with an off season of weights under his belt. Think he might also be the defender instead of the forward but stranger things have happened.

CJ...remember seeing him at a pre-season game at Shepparton v Richmond. He was out on the ground kicking to himself 1.5 hours before the start. No one with him. The guy i was with asked who he was ! Not much at stake for a pre-season country game but his approach is obviously very determined. Though...

A guy in front of me at the Saints Family Day on Sunday at Jihad asked Goose Maguire how his leg was at the autograph session? Goose "It's Cherry (ripe). The best I've been....EVER." Supporter said bad luck on not playing... Goose "I'm just REALLY sick of not playing" I felt a bi...

If the showers intensify tomorrow as has been expected all week since i posted weather forecast last Sunday then, Ottens, Mooney, Hawkins ->likely impact mitigated Johnson, Chapman -> injuries will be truly tested Stevie J - 2nd up has claimed many a good racehorse! the ball won't be on a string, de...

Winds west to northwesterly averaging up to 55 km/h tending west to southwesterly up to 50 km/h during the afternoon. CityWindy.

Pressure is pivotal and no more important spot on the field than the Geelong defence - just gotta tie up Scarlett, Mackie, Enright from running it out in a wave. Their fwd line is always going to be reasonable but its the SUPPLY that makes all the difference. I think its so important that I wonder i...

Gilbert in AA squad - unbelievable year !

Went from likely 3rd leading forward to hard to replace defender in the best defence in the league.

Farren Ray would also win some accolades for much better consistency.

M55 row C

Saints M50-51, Dogs 52-53, Saints 54-55 ?

The scene moves to the new VB ad. "No matter what club you belong to".....Chris Judd walking under banner of "I tried the pressure point (again) but the fingers slipped in" He may also march to the "I tried to be a greenie at Visy but no one believed it" or "Carlst...

his shot for goal in last quarter was a horrible, horrible shank.

run and carry through Half forward maybe Raph's go.
