Re: Battle

Battle for pick 19 would be a(nother) list management disaster for us. It won't happen. We offered him the $800k early in the year, we've since offered him more. So if Hawthorn beat our offer, which they need to, we get band 1 compo. Our decision is simple, what's the maximum you pay for a third ta...

Re: Battle

I was there yesterday, and I can tell you that Josh Battle is an absolute star and should be kept at all costs.
He is one bloke we cannot f**** lose.

Re: Matchday Thread-Saints v Power

I certainly don't think just playing finals is the ultimate benchmark for success - a premiership is. In fact, in support of the point you were making, Port Adelaide have certainly been a far superior team to us over the past decade, but since 2015 have only won a single final more than we have. And...

Re: Matchday Thread-Saints v Power

For the first time I concede king is a bust I feel sorry for him. The club and coach need to take some of the responsibility for the way he's currently playing His brother is flourishing so you have to wonder what might have been if Max was playing for a different club. Max was obviously the twin t...

Re: Team hoping to switch off the Power...

This would be our most senior experienced side we have had in our team all season. In true St Kilda style we still have B Crouch out, which is probably THE player we could do with the most against Port Power, but hopefully we can cover him and get the win anyways. I actually think we will win tomor...

I have thought about this a bit more and I think this will motivate our club and players.

I'm now convinced a victory is possible for us this week.
I'm with you. We are not far away from a blowout game. I think it could be this week.

Wish we had another strong tall fwd.
Their talls, Gorgeadis and T. Marshall will cause us problems.
Play Campbell and let RoMa go forward. That'll do.

The other game where we looked good in patches was against North Melbourne where we kicked 15 goals 13 behinds for our only score over 100 for the year.

Re: Ross Lyon tactics

I don't expect us to make finals.. I do. It's a long season and we are only three games out of the eight. You want to be coming into form the other end anyway. Our injury list is nothing like it has been for past 18 months and other clubs are copping their fair whack. And our players pilloried to p...

Re: Ross Lyon tactics

Seems to me that some coaches figure out a way through this RTB’s plan and some don’t. When they figure it out… we tend to look pretty bad. That said… I thought RTB put on a master class on Saturday night Only lost three games by over 4 goals since the man took over. And it looks as if the boys jus...

Re: If the shoe had been on the other foot

The Suns are useless. They aren't going to make finals this year, and unless they do something very drastic regarding their list, they won't play finals next season either. With all of the frdps they should have got a result against a team who couldn't kick more than 7 goals all night. If they could...
