Longer struggled to run to contests. He needs another couple of pre-seasons to build a tank. Sam Jacobs destroyed him around the ground with the crows playing through his man all day long (pardon the pun!).

Great Summary.....

I disagree with you on one point. Wouldn't bring in Dunnell. To me he is to be only considered if we are ravaged by injury.

I consider myself a 'glass half empty' type of person when it comes to supporting the saints, but strangely enough I have zero expectations in 2014, and a strong sense of optimism for what lies ahead in the years to come.

It is a sad day indeed for the Stkfc. We have lost not only a great player, but a wonderful person who has provided us with much joy over the last 12 years. I'm not sure how to feel today. Obviously disappointed that Nick has chosen to join the Kangaroos, but can also understand his desire to do so,...

fox sports = zero credibility

Interesting that no Melbourne AFL journos are reporting this.

At least use the correct grammar if you are going to give us your 'expert' opinion.

Young legs couldn't see out the game plan for the full four quarters. Really disappointed with some of our senior players tonight. Fisher, Dal and Kozi were very poor. Can't expect too much more from the young kids.

He has been murdered tonight.

Saad, dal santo, Kozi ......bye, bye

Millera too good for this level. Needs to come into saints side vs pies. Webster also worth a look at the next level. Great penetrating left foot kick could be handy off a half back flank. Simpkin really struggling and needs to keep his feet. Blake has been an absolute soldier for this club, but bas...

More importantly, why is Siposs NOT playing??

Please West Coast, put a contract in front of him.......Now!!!!!

Reckon we dodged a bullet with Brown. Would be worse than anyone we already have on our list.

Tigers have made a good start.......they only need another 8 wins to finish 9th.

Don't lay the blame on just Scott Watters. Ross Lyon left this list in such poor shape, it will take years to turn it around. The fact that pelchin and waters have traded away early picks since taking over has just made the situation worse. I still can't understand trading pick 12 for a mature age r...

Summary of our recruiting.........


Sebastian Ross - hardly a first round draft pick. May become an ok player but not worthy of a first round selection.
Tom Lee - First round pick for a 22 yo, who is not selected for round 1....WTF

The Fox commentators made the point about the saints giving up pick #12 for Lee. In their view for pick 12 you would want a real gun.

I'm afraid Tom Lee is more of a water pistol.

Tom Lee definately not worth pick #12 Seb Ross - must be related the non-talented side of the Watson family. Jimmy Webster - the less said the better! #34 - aside from dropping sitters in the backline, didn't really show that much. Tom Ledger - Awareness and decision making poor. TDL -OK Hickey - Wi...

Thank God that WC "ran out of time to digest this trade". In 12 months time we will be greatful that this trade fell through. I cannot believe Watter's obsession with Mitch Brown. Other than size, he is a crap footballer. My brother is a WC supporter and he was hysterical with laughter at ...

Let Cripps try his luck in the draft. Don't offer any more than a 3rd round for Brown because as a previous poster said, he's number 4 at the Eagles for a reason. If that falls through get Gilham as a stop gap for 2013 and then get Brown for nothing at the end of next season.

Pick 13, No, Pick 24 maybe. This kid better be bloody good if we're going to give up a second rounder in a strong draft. Also, what's the latest with Cripps? Now that Stevens has nominated the Dogs, the Eagles don't have much in the way of picks to give us. Maybe, just maybe, the Saints are quietly ...

Haven't seen a lot of him myself, but from the fiew clips that I've seen he seems to prefer handballing than kicking. I tend to agree with the call that he is a poorer version of Armo. I wouldn't be giving up more than a 4th round pick for him myself. Highly unlikely the eagles will be happy with th...

Eagles supporters think the fact that they have picked Tom Swift over Stevens during the year suggests that the Eagles don't really rate him.

Not interested in ANY Melbourne rejects. Couldn't get a game at Melbourne, who aren't flushed with talent, yet people here are saying they would be happy with this trade. Get a grip people!!
