Great read! I am a born & bred South Australian living in the Barossa Valley, but I love the Saints. I have supported them my whole life all because of my Grandmother. I did sway a little when Peter Motley played for the Blues but that's it. 40 years a supporter, this is my 20th year as a member...

Apparently there is no standout which is a bit of worry at this point. Just our luck. wright is the standout.... So far Wright has played 2 x games in Under 18 champs Game 1 1 goal - not in best Game 2 0 goals - not in best Difficult to call him a 'standout'. By contrast Boyd only played one game l...

From what I understand & have heard, Adrian Anderson is still a big chance to be appointed full time CEO of Cycling Australia. CA have always said they will appoint someone in February, so we have 2 weeks at the most to wait. I think if they don't appoint AA, then he is a very big chance of beco...

She melted in the second round after holding an early lead. She gave it her best shot in all the heat, but not quite good enough. The commentator mentioned that she loves her football , & is a great supporter of St Kilda FC. Sam Stosor, another Saint, was firing last night and is now into the 3...

It is rare that a player who wins All Australian at the U/18s state carnival misses out on being drafted. I remember there was a South Australian AA who missed out but got picked up in either the pre season or rookie drafts but eventually proved a failure - name eludes me. Panos. Last year. Port pi...

Would love to get James Battersby as a rookie (I'm pretty sure he wasn't drafted), Very competitive, composed, smart small defender with the potential to go through the midfield. We need an extra ruck option as well, I'm not fussed if it's Jolly or not. Personally I'd still get rid of TDL and Shent...

I think we will rookie Weller. Not sold on Jolly though. Hire him as a ruck coach!

I hope we rookie Zac Webster & Maverick Weller.

I wouldn't be surprised if Adam Kingsley moved to the midfield role & Aaron Hamill was given the forward role. I think Danny Sexton will stay as defensive coach.
As for the academy, what about Stan Alves?

Just out of interest, will it look like this?

Senior Coach - Alan Richardson
Forwards - Aaron Hamill
Midfield - Adam Kingsley
Backs - Danny Sexton.

or will Richo bring in his own staff?
I think it's a little late for the latter!

length of contract. Greg Denham in the Australian says we are down to 5 years (Choco) v 3 years (Us) at $600K.

When was his last official game as coach? They say the game evolves monthly, let alone the years since he last coached. I'm saying OLD SCHOOL.

He has never left the system!

I still wouldnt be laying my hard earned on Choc just now. 1: there is no value in the bet 2: I dont beleive anyone really knowes 3: Banga has been firm all through the betting I believe its a 2 horse race with Choc the odds on fav with no value in the bet, so no bet.
