Re: freeman
i think I just worked out Richo’s selection policy..... 1. Spin the giant wheel four times, each number it lands on = players dropped this week 2. Spin the giant wheel another four times, each number it lands on = players in this week. Unfortunately for Nathan Freeman, the wheel hasn’t landed on num...

Re: Weak selection policy AGAIN!
Good to see that Newnes has been rewarded for his ONE tackle last week.
We lost two forwards and have brought in two midfielders. I feel a 10 goal thumping coming our way, but one thing’s for sure, come Monday, Richo will find lots of positives and will be pleased with the effort.

Re: Had a gutful. Newnes survives, Sinclair dropped
Like others, I’m a bit stunned that Jack Newnes has once again retained his spot in the side. Not quite sure what his perceived value is amongst the coaching group, or whether it’s one coach in particular (AR) who cannot see his obvious flaws. It must be quite disheartening for guys like Sinclair an...

Re: So much Richo hate.
Truth is. We mere supporters will never know if Richo is the main problem at the moment relating to the Saints poor form. Its probably a combination of alot of things so lets be truthful and honest about it. I still always reckon the majority of the blame has to lie with the players this year. Thei...

Re: Trust the Process????
Great post. Recruiting has almost become the single most important part of football these days, and I question our recruitment department. It's fair to say that there are serious question marks over Tony Elshaug's performance over the last few years, and the fact that Wayne Hughes is our "Pro S...

Re: Assessment in The Australian 2/4/18
Wow! Scathing, but absolutely on the money. A more spineless and insipid management team I have not seen. They have filled the football department with plodders, so it’s no wonder we are so easy to play against. If this club had any ambition they would do what Freo did to us, and go out and poach a ...

Re: JLT2 Match Thread Saints v Demons 2018
Lucky we signed Ricoh for an extra 2 years.
This re-build has been a failure. Carlton started long way behind us and have already gone past us.

Re: Message to Richo - Man them up!!!!!!
Memo to the St Kilda Board. please do not be in any hurry to re-sign Richo.
Let's wait until the end of the season and then assess.
We have become a one trick pony. Other clubs have worked us out, and we do not have a Plan B.

Re: Match Thread Saints v Crows Round 12 2017
What an embarrassment. No system, just play on at all costs.
Structure in the first quarter was disgraceful. Richo has well and truly been out coached. Where is plan B?
What the hell is Roberton doing? He's butchered every single kick, and his decision making is horrible.
Another wasted year.

Re: Former Saint chalks up 300 games in style
With the passing of time, the disappointment of BJ leaving our club has subsided to the point that today, I wish Brendon nothing but the best for the remainder of his footballing career. What a wonderful player he was (and is), and what a truly remarkable career he has had. One played at a consisten...

Re: The Coach or the List?

Hawthorn were poor against us and the GC. You know if anyone thought we were certainties for the Grand Final before the seaso...

Re: Billings and mccartin
I think folks need to give Paddy a break. The delivery to him yesterday was appalling. In fact the delivery into our forward line overall was shocking. So many times our midfield just kicked long bombs iinto our forwards, that they never stood a chance. So many times Paddy would lead out for the bal...

Re: Jaxons come on down
I must admit I am a little underwhelmed with our lack of involvement so far in the trade period. Steele will give us depth in the midfield but not the explosive outside run we so desperately need. As far as Kobi Stevens is concerned, I'm not sure why we would be chasing him. Can't see him as being i...

Re: Jaxons come on down
Seems like things have gone very quiet in this thread of late. All of our ITK's have gone to ground, and a number of posters both on here and big footy are 'taking breaks' from posting. Most recently, BS who is copping a bit of heat (allegedly). I just hope that our club is working on something big,...

Re: I'm not convinced about Al....
We are shallow down back and there really is not that much there to bring in. Delaney is having an average few weeks in the magoos, as is Goddard truth be told. You have to ask the question though, would it have been any worse if one had of come up to do a job? This game was three steps backwards f...
