All bringing Raph back means we are offically tanking

Dont knock Raph he is important for our future. If he continues to play we will certainly be eligible for priorority picks in the next two drafts. We coukld actually get some players that could run out of sight on a dark night. Besides if Ross didn't play him he may release those photo,s of him in a...

It is time for changes , rotating players that are past their use by date and the proven duds may see us win 5 or 6 games, blooding young players may result in even less wins but could be beneficial at draft time ie providing our recruiting staff can finally demonstrate some knowledge of the game. I...

I agree with Clarky 449 & St Trav we appear to be heading for the bottom of the heap, but let me assure you that in the days we only won a couple a year those wins were all the more enjoyable. Lets hope that when we do get the early draft picks our recruiting staff don't swap them for the likes ...

Great work, you have put some thought into this post. Next step is to put your hand up for the recruiters positions as Peake & Beveridge do not appear to have your diligence.

Hope all this information is viewed by our recruiting staff as they need all the help they can get.

Real shame if he goes, pity it can't be retrospective

Everybody is quick to slam saintspremiers comments but only three rising star nominations in seven years seems to back up his statement. I for one hope he is wrong but am able to pull my head out of the sand and see that the comments have some reasoning behind them. Its great to have faith in your t...

Recruiting staff must lift their game, recent history does not look good 2009 traded for Lovett 2008 Lynch (13) over looked Beams & Hannebery 2007 McEvoy (9) over looked Rioli & Taylor 2006 Armitage (9) over looked Riewoldt & Dawes 2005 traded for Fergus Watts 2004 Mc Qualter (17) over l...

"Slip sliding away"

As an interesting exercise I looked over our GF teams for 65, 66, 71 & 97 the difference with those teams is that there were no real duds. Unfortunately we have more duds than any other AFL side and the good players in most cases when on their game have been able to cover for them. It is going t...

Probably afraid of a lynch mob, I don't mean Tom and his family

ou cant be serious surely Dal is a better option than either Armo or Smith

Although we have had a trying year both on and off the field once again so much has been left to so few. Its a shame that players like Hayes, Reiwoldt, Dal Santo, Goddard & Fisher will probably never see a premiership. The problem is a severe lack of both leg speed and poor decision making. Wher...

Direct swap for Zac would have to be a winner

I hope I'm wrong but this may be our last finals appearance for some time. Other clubs are improving and our recruiting has been abysmal. This year we have Lovett, J. Smith, Winmar, Pattison & Johnson,none of which are likely to play many if any games. Rookie list is also thin with only Walsh a ...
