I’ve played sport my whole life in teams with plenty of dickheads And when they could play, I didn’t GAF They helped me win games and premierships Would you have had Wayne Carey in the 90s? Massive d**khead What does that matter? Yeah I played with some absolute loose cannons ,not bad blokes but pr...

Buddy Franklin WOG - worst on ground. Should never have left Hawthorn. Paddy Mac /Buddy a toss up but If I was offered a contract for a 1 mil a year for 9 years I would leave too & to Buds credit he has actually completed that contract & I was a serious doubter ATT . Going around next year ...

LOL - Gears, Smellwood and Dawkins all grew up in Bendigo together, didn't they - may 2022 be remembered for them all retiring together. Selwood and Hawkins are great players. I doubt your wish will come true in them both joining Geary in retirement and not going around in 2023. I thought Hawkins h...

If Brad was in better physical condition he would have won IMO

I noticed Gears sitting beside Joel Selwood’s wife and with the Selwood family at the Grand Final. Geary has always since a kid been Selwood’s best mate. I wonder if Gears might surface somewhere as an assistant coach next season, possibly with Geelong? I hope Saints don’t lose his services. The la...

Success on the field translates to success off the field unfortunately for Finnis lack of on field success has tainted his tenure as CEO IMO. Not the worst not the best but had a crack just didn't have the impact I was hoping for He doesn't recruit the players or coach them. He did get St Kilda bac...

Hickey tried hard got a little better as the game went on & was better than Paddy Mac but both has poor games . Stanley was solid so he wins the medal for the best Saints reject in the grand final

At 22 Buddy kicked 100 goals

At 22 Max kicked 50 goals

Different era's & the game has changed dramatically in 15 years .IMO comparing apples with oranges .

Please not a 2nd rounder. Here’s the last ten years second round picks. Matthew Allison Oscar Clavarino Ben Long Brandon White Hugh Goddard Daniel McKenzie Luke Dunstan Blake Acres Nathan Wright Spencer White Brodie Murdoch Unless I’ve missed a couple that’s a pretty average bunch of 2nd round sele...

Does he want a racist coach?

Long bow BM racist is a big call . No doubt there has been & there still is racism at all clubs . IMO only lets wait & see what the AFL 's investigation finds out before we point the finger

From memory we got Philipps instead.

And that worked out well

Hopefully we see the JIG ..... haven't heard from him for a while

Hopefully

I very much doubt we will see JHF at the Saints next year or JDG for that matter

And in regards Hannebery, McCartin and others subject to comment - what about Peter Motley (son of Geof a Magarey Medalist and Premiership Captain of Port Adelaide, Peter playing for Sturt then Carlton)? Injured in a horrific car accident to never play again Puts footy into perspective, hey? Of not...

The responses are noted - and in regards certain are as expected The invitation to listen to the words of the NFC Coach has most obviously not been accepted by some It is of note that James Gallagher, now of St Kilda, is a product of the Norwood Football Club, of over 200 games including a Premiers...

What is overlooked is that St Kilda had the Number 1 Draft Pick because it was the BOTTOM Club in the competition So an 18 year old key forward coming into the BOTTOM side And expected to take the side up the ladder - immediately He did not have the likes of Gehrig and Hamill alongside him And he d...

You can’t get closer than a draw, but hey…
Stanley might get dropped yet

A draw or 1 point does it really matter ? It is what it is still no premiership & in regard to Stanley maybe but I think he will play

And we have club captains in Hamill and Steele Vice captain in membrey Coleman medalist in Gehrig Nearly norm Smith medalist gram Excellent players in Dempster and Schneider and voss Etc etc Every club has them come in and go out We only focus on one way None of those players that came to us played...

Great words killa and I respect you wholeheartedly as a poster here. You clearly know the game and what it takes For me though this current administration is doing the talking with the walking yet to be proven. We’ve been haphazard with our recruitment (at best) with seriously questionable decision...

Either McCartin, Stanley or Hickey will be premiership players McEvoy was a premiership player Ball was a premiership player Goddard a captain and B&F Dal Santo excellent at North Hall a premiership player Smith an AA at Hawthorn Everitt an AA and B&F at Hawthorn Lappin nearly 150 games at ...

Watched this on Kayo the other night, I was there live but don’t recall watching a replay before. A few observations and comparisons to current footy. Style of footy Fast free flowing one on one style game. Little umpiring interference compared to current footy. No or very little hold it up go slow...

How many flags have Norwood won & how many have St.Kilda won . Obviously Norwood are doing something right can't say the same for St.Kilda . Continually making poor decisions on & off the field year in year out.

Interesting times ahead if the rumour mill is accurate

Hickey, Paddy, Stanley, Acres… Not a great advertisement for our ability to harness talent. Acres been given the boot Stanley is the worst number 1 ruck in the AFL and McCartin we had little choice. Arces has a way better offer from Carlton that's hardly getting the boot IMO 300k hardly a massive o...
