Re: Reality
What didn't change was the lock Steele, Crouch, Ross, and Marshall have had on stoppages. I'd be expecting some change in that department. I expect Marshall Crouch Steele and Clark to start in the centre against Richmond... I expect Sinclair to go in at stages to replace Clark, Crouch or Steele, as...

Re: Hawks game V Carlton game planning
There's a difference between believing everything Lyon says and actually watching the game for yourself I suggest you try doing the latter sometimes Based on some of your posts, assuming you watch games live, do you watch them with full concentration, or with one eye on the player heat map expansion?

Re: Supporters need perspective
Steele isn’t a creative mid - he’s not Petracca Bont or Cripps… he’s more Crouch …this game style should suit his second to the footy tackle style Has Brad Crouch polled more votes than Bont, Oliver, Cripps and Perracca in the Brownlow? https://www.saints.com.au/news/828310/steele-earns-podium-fini...

Re: Zak Jones season over
Who's excited? Just saying not "broken". Hope he can have a solid end to the season, good pre season and be over his injury concerns. We need a more polish with disposal, and a fit Billings will help considerably. On the other hand, if he doesn't finish well, may be at another club next y...

Re: Zak Jones season over
Billings had 3 score involvements against Hawthorn. Billings got 15 touches at 80% Disposal efficiency…plus 1 goal assist. Ryan Byrnes had 16 touches at 87% DE…plus 2 goal assists Ronnie also had a total of 9 score involvements by the way (Second only to Brad Crouch). What's Byrnes got to do with i...

Re: Votes v Suns
Hill had 20 possessions. 70% disposal efficiency That's 14 effective disposals. 4 clangers. Only 4 of his disposals were contested. Only 2 score involvements Oh well....if he wants another contract we pay him half what he's on now...maybe if Lethlean goes to Hawthorn, he can take Brad with him and ...

Re: Ross Lyon is #2
Lyon was NOT offered a new contract in 2011 The club was waiting until the end of the season to make a decision and in all honesty we’re looking for a change (as they were going down the Pelchen path and Lyon and Pelchen despised each other!) In Lyons own words Fremantle did in 8 hours what StK cou...

Re: Ross Lyon is #2
Wrong. Lyon was offered a new deal by St Kilda in 2011 (as was promised to him and his management)....but he was already contracted up until 2012. Hinkley is not contracted beyond this year. His management agreed in good faith that Ross would commit to St Kilda beyond 2012, but Ross ditched them an...

Re: Votes v Dees
Have you heard of the saying "play the percentages?" Running at full speed you want him to try and tap the footy to a team mate 2 metres away and you think that's a good/low risk option. Ok then. Sorry... Ronnie did have options. He just has to obviously improve his volleyball skills for ...

Bullshiitt No it’s not. You’re either biased or don’t know what you’re looking at. You'd be hopeless in a court room First quarter we jumped out to an early lead. We were dominating territory.

Re: Steele Carrying Injured Knee
Makes sense why he hasn’t had prolific numbers. He’s been instrumental in some of our wins and played poorly (like many of his team mates) in some of our losses. People neglect the fact that he did an AC joint last year and fractured his clavicle this year as well as this current knee issue. I’m st...

Re: The non free to max
And for the record as it hasn't been highlighted elsewhere, Buddy's second goal wasn't a goal at all. He kicked the ball when both his foot and the ball were behind or over the goal line. The commentators were too busy wanking over Buddy to notice. Sick making really. I called that as it happened. ...

Re: JB’s future at Moorabbin
Hotton will only have to be a middle of the road midfielder, who turns up consistently to be a better player than Billings in my opinion. Billings is the classic historical St Kilda player who looks good in a bad side and supporters cling to him because they have nothing else to be positive about. ...
