It is nothing to do with their colour, it is do with the fact that they are media darlings. Bruce goes "fifty shades of grey" at even a mention of either of them. Rioli had a good year but not as good as any of Swallow, Mitchell, Sidebottom or Rockliff. However, none of them are covered in...

Raph has Afl level skills with Vfl level decision making. That's what make him so dominant at Sandy while normally struggling at the senior level.

Yes Caddy is in a position to make demands. He does not have to accept any trade. There may be clubs he doesn't wish to go to for what ever reason. The Suns cannot force him to accept a trade but he seems to be trying to do the best thing by the club so may go to ever they request. He wants to get b...

If St Kilda fail to match the 600K for 4 years then we may as well give up. Elite players do not grow on trees. Drafting is a gamble, an educated guess but still a guess. Yes, pick 13 could give you another Nick Dal Santo it could also give you another Aaron Fiora. It is easy for Geelong to pay unde...

Oh please, desist with the poultry attempts at humour.

We should be chasing Mitch Brown from WC. He is behind a few players on the Eagles list and may be looking for more opportunities. In my opinion he is a better player than Chaplin.

Yes the umpiring was poor but anyone trying to argue that there was deliberate premeditated bias is sadly deluded. The decisions did favour the Pies but that almost always happens when one sides supporters greatly outnumber the other. It is wrong and the umpire needs to be taken to task for being in...

We have a snowballs chance in hell unfortunately.

No chance in hell of getting him. We would need to break the bank and the salary cap just won't allow us to do that and unfortunately we don't have Visy or Channel 9 to boost the wages of our players unlike certain other teams. A better option would be to chase Mitch Brown from the Eagles. Big stron...

The key things this will be the resignings. A players worth is exactly what he would be paid on the open market. So guys like Kosi an Gram are currently, it appears, dramatically overpaid. The most either would get offered by another club at this stage of their careers is about $200K, Gram maybe a l...

I am surprised that Saad didn't get a rest given the concussion.
It is no surprise to see Newnes out for Fisher but I thought Simpkin had done enough to keep his spot above Gwilt or Clarke.

They have already changed it from 10 years+ to now 5 years+ and if they don't get the numbers they require will open it up to all members. incorrect - was always the plan to have 10 = on the front and 5=9 on the back.. but believe what you will obviously the club can't do much right by you exzctly ...

I think it's a great idea & bought my "Naming Rights" as soon as I got the email. The people that bleat on & on about the club not doing anything for "them" give me the s***s! We choose to support the club. No one is forcing you to purchase any "extras". I'm su...

This is just cynical rubbish by the club. We are honouring 10 year plus members by letting them donate $250 to the club and in return get a $50 jumper with their name printed on it somewhere. I have been a social club member for 15+ years but no way will I be doing this. I have a Rebels membership a...

I put $20 on the Giants for the first game of the year against the Swans. At $17 for a two horse race I thought it was just too tempting. Lost but it was wortha shot.

2nd that. Apart from everitt

I have to agree about Goose unfortunately, however I have the complete opposite experience of Spider. I only met him once but he was very friendly and charming.

saintspremiers, statistics can be misleading as we know with the Ablett V Dale Thomas scenario last week. A player can have only 10 possessions yet have a huge impact on the game, whilst a players can have 50 possessions and not have a meaningful influence. Healthy debate is good btw, no need for a...

Do we get player reports? Of course not. Clearly we do! Any Fantasy Footy coach will tell you that! Number of disposals, kicking efficiency, tackles, 1%ers, pressure acts, clangers, dream team points....all measure performance of a player. These are just raw stats and we can draw our own conclusion...

I don't doubt that Kozi works hard at his preparation now. This year he is definately getting the rewards and playing really well. However, it is also impossible to argue that he has been a massive disappointment for a great part of his career. His performances have not been those of a number two dr...

Knowing the Hun the headline will be something like "Milne escapes punishment after rape and corruption investigation" and have the photo of him in the hoody.

Well what I don't understand is the article says he needs "nippy on-ballers".
BJ, Monty and Dal are talented and skilled but you wouldn't say any of them are nippy particularly BJ and Dal.
If he is looking for pace then are our experienced players is the last place he would look for it.

It is a great timeslot for those of us who don't have kids as well. Go to the footy, then listen to the players in the Social club after the game and then out to dinner and home by 11:00. I am a fan of Saturday Twilight games though not so much on Sundays. It is a better timeslot than Friday or Satu...
