Re: Round one team
Coaches like Clarkson, Lyon and Longmire stamped a definite style on their teams immediately... Clarkson's team won 5 games in his first season. Longmire took a team that had finished 5th the year before and guided them to 7th. Lyon's first year we missed the finals even though we'd played finals t...

Re: Round one team
I would play White from Round 1 without hesitation. We are not a team where it's hard to break into due to strength across all positions, so for me it is open slather to see who steps up early, and we do need X-factor players although that type of erratic player doesn't fit well with process coache...

Re: Round one team
I think it proves how bad we are going when just about everyone has Membury in their team. I to think he will be picked but on form he shouldn't be close to getting a game. Shenton is similar. He is a very ordinary player that I wish I could play like but he isn't really much good. Slow and not a g...

Re: Goddard move- article
You forget MSG, that Pelchen gave guys like Polo, Peake and Clarke extra years...all of them playing until end of 2012. He had an obsession with 2 years for guys not going anywhere.

Re: Rucking issues
Saints pre 1997 GF was a rucking issue, if our ruckman were injured or past their prime then rucking issue, if going for a flag this year then an issue. It must be considered in context of where we finished last year. Having 4 developing ruckman is a non-issue for a developing team. I think it's ex...

Re: Saints v Brisbane = review thread
Ross looks like a cliched in and under player with decent-enough foot skills. Hardly a world beater but every good side has a few.
The aim (for the football club) is for Ross to be our 22nd player picked every week. Then, it displays that we have improved but also he has.

Re: Saints v Brisbane = review thread
There are some great reviews on the team board at bigfooty. One in particular from someone at the game Interesting that the wind was much stronger in qtr 4 and favoured the Lions. Considering we ran all over them, it is exactly what I wanted to hear. Watching the feed i was happy we ran out the gam...

Re: Rucking issues
In terms of trades I reckon we made the right decisions regarding McEvoy and Longer, but I have been disappointed with Longer's development. I think Longer is a great tap ruckman and he's hard at it when the ball hits the ground but he should be giving a marking option around the ground and he's ju...

Re: Tommy Lee will be back in the WAFL in 2 years time!
Judge Lee at the end of the year ..not now . He will need 5 or 6 games this year to test himself out with an eye to 2016 , yes the jury is out on him but he has been badly injured the last few years , which psychologically damages you as a player as you dont trust your body so your our mindset is o...

Re: Lewis Pierce
Well if we want to compare. When he was 20 Rhys played 7 senior games. So if Lewis plays 7 senior games this season- then he will be equal with Rhys at the same age. Seems fairly possible to me that he could play 7 games this year. No it wouldn't as they are two different players, ideally different...

Re: Riewoldt's role
I reckon he is real chance to play as a leading forward but if they cant fit him there I would play him as a leading forward. The only option I see for the AA is as a leading forward. I think the Richo-role as a player in a crap team that runs around is suitable. Considering the uber-talent that ha...
