Caminiti trained as a defender Good news. I hope we play him as key defender in the seniors for at least as long as it takes Howard to get back. Cordy is not the future. Even if Caminiti does not ultimately play asa key back, it will be good for his career as a forward. Plus makes him more versatil...
Keelor - gone ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? No way is Keeler gone. I was all about it until I watched him play, not a Keeler fan now, seen him play 9 times, 2 good games...the rest very avg or dud. Forward twice and the rest in defense. But he is ...

Clark 56% TOG (62% last week), less than Cordy who was subbed out, and Dow 63% TOG (77% last week)
Both building to full game tanks
Clark was also being checked for a collision by our medical staff during the game. So that will have cost him some TOG.
Hopefully gets 20 possessions. Well there is now un upside if we kick a truckload of behinds.......we get to watch Arie take more kick-ins ;) Well I'll be...... you learn something everyday. I didn't know a Saints player kicked out when the Saints scored a behind. What, haven't you seen how the bal...
This narrative that he is going to leave for less money is a classic saintsational.net story. No chance of that happening. I think you misunderstood me. I did not mean less money than St Kilda, but he may not take the biggest offer from another club. ie North are evidently the highest bidders, then...
It only makes sense IF he generates Band 1 Compo, and that is not at all certain. If not, we gain a pick that may or may not be as good as Battle and who will be raw. Whomever Battle plays for you know he will play very well for many years. There is a huge assumption that Battle will go only tilla c...
Rebuilding to me Means you are changing your core and building a different list Virtually no club does it that way these days. And in the old days even less. North have tried to. The Hawks to some extent. No other club has, and certainly not in just a couple of years. North years ago were first mov...
I would pay Pou on Half back line it would allow him to get his hands on the ball build confidence and he would have a lot of experience around him. Its about decision making as he has a big kick he could really turn into a weapon there. Once he gets confidence back move him to where ever coaches w...
Our most impressive first year player since Rooey ? Rooey only played 6 games in his first year,. Wilson's first 8 games are more impressive that Rooey's first 6. Wilson could well play every game this year given his current form, and so as most impressive first year player as a measure is likely t...
All great points sRr. One worth dwelling on is: Can Shoenmaker become a genuine CHB and take the 2nd tall forward? I think not in his first 20-30 games at AFL level but that should be the goal. Height is overrated from key defenders. We trust Wilkie at 191cm to take on some pretty big forwards. It'...
We are in a stage of the season where we are seeing some magnets move around the board at a fast pace. I want to ask some questions of you all. Sharman - Having the least productive season of his career. What's his position? This year I don't thing he knows as the Coach is throwing him all over the...
Arie doesn’t have the tank or speed for a wing. He’s playing good footy but plays the role of Battle or Wilkie, two of our better and more durable players. Unless he replaces Sharman, in that forward/ back hybrid (nothing) role I don’t see it. I would love to see him get a run and bang a couple of ...
As I’ve said before, thank goodness fans don’t pick the side. Thursday’s game is close to being a must win for us and we have fans calling for the selection of unproven and (from what I’ve seen of them) unexciting first year players. Garcia looked like he might be something in the pre-season practi...
The rest of the forwards must understand that they are just as good as King and to present in their own way and not play second fiddle. I think it is more that the rest of the team need to learn to always look for the best option. When Sharman is allowed to play forward you will note that he leads ...
