Easy. McCartin & Goddard

When we had a strong following in Tassie, and had brought over Baldock and Stewart, why didn't we get Hudson as well? Probably would have won at least one more. My point is every club has its draft/recruiting wins and losses, and St Kilda is no different, imo particularly recent recruiting has been ...

Even someone as dull as you should know. Is that the best you've got? Try contributing something. Your trolling of me is as tiresome as it is pathetic. 47 in six years? I think it's obvious what you are. At least I've added to your total. If it sounds like a troll, looks like a troll and posts like...

A typically insightful contribution. Another wasted post like the other 40 or so you've posted in six years. Are you ever going to post something worth reading? Or are you going to keep trolling a club you despite?

Are you replying to me or yourself?

Wow. What a waste of a thread

Steele has apparently had a bit of a niggle and has looked a bit tired last couple of games. Had a short pre season, so although "dropped", a rest might do him good. With Dunstan replacing him we won't lose much, may even be a plus if he gets back to his best. I rate Dunstan. Looks like Lo...

Petracca is a good player, better forward than mid field. Buckley did not really put a good defender matchup on him when he went forward today. IMO he is nothing special & certainly not a dangerfield or ablett, never will be near it. Proficient midfielders are everywhere, but good target forwar...

Definitely the worst team in AFL/VFL History. What a laughable thread

So who are we interested in then? Interested in what is the best for the club. There is nothing wrong with going to the draft with picks 4 and 8, which we currently have either. All options are being explored. Trading both our first round picks, trading one of them, and trading none of them. A coup...

Lose Paddy and gain Schache? That's a loss for a start

I would think that with the TPP increases our chance of landing a "big fish" have been reduced and reckon we may well bring in a decent player of the Devon Smith ilk, but not a big fish like Kelly. I have no problem with that, use our draft picks well and keep with the strategy of peaking ...

I thought Paddy advanced today in his development.

Did not clunk his marks, got to a lot of good positions but was often bypassed, or received poor delivery.

Could have kicked three or four.

Get games into him, and when he leads, kick it to him. (Hopefully with a decent pass)

I quite like Roos as a commentator - good analysis and comments to me are pretty spot on

Stats, Stats & Stats

Don't really tell you much

McCartin should stay in the ones for the rest of the year. He is a presence, missed his marks today and had no delivery. He is different to the other forwards was in the right spot often but ball not delivered (same with whole forward line today)- matter of gelling with the play structure and settli...

In 2-3 years Paddy will be our best big forward by a long shot. I am surprised he has been given so many games in the ones to date. He is a big lug and was always going to take time. He is currently learning how to contest and minimise his chances of getting his head whacked, needs a bit more fitnes...

You play your best ruckman - Longer

Longer provides a stronger presence at ruck contests. He won more tap outs than McEvoy and I thought more than held his own. McEvoy kicked 2 goals, one where Billy was pushed in the back & the second he was not in the ruck. He is vital against Mummy next week - better option than Hickey. There i...

Out Minchington (can only play against Geelong), Long.

In Sinclair, DMac

Very good effort - showed we can beat anyone. Got some bad decisions, Longer, Riewoldt injured, Steven etc ran out of legs, Gresham had a poor game, coaches should have tried harder to clamp down Selwood, Dangerfield, bit of experience won the game. Scoreboard flatters Geelong. Developing sides main...

McCartin has not reached 21 yet, he is a key forward, Petracca is just another solid midfielder, no gun in my opinion. As has been stated a number of times, good key forwards are very hard to find or very expensive. I do not expect McCartin to really have an impact until he is 23 or 24, about when w...

My only concern with McCartin is keeping him on the park. I have no doubt he was the right choice & he will be a gun forward, and has shown plenty already.
One gun forward is worth 2 top midfielders - and midfielders are much easier to recruit/poach.
