big hips... like him

After hearing Gieschen explain what is/isn't a free kick, Chamberlain made the right call on that. Purely on how he is instructed, he didn't make a mistake. The instructions on the other hand are utterly f****** ridiculous.

A reco now would most likely mean he would be available rd1 2014.

Means he is back for the last few games of the season and then can have a full pre-season for 2014.

Full reco would mean he was no good until the end of 2014 or even 2015

If they decided to push Kosi/Milne into retirement and traded Dal and Fisher for reasonable currency I wouldn't be shattered. The club is bigger than those four, despite their outstanding service.

He's not A Grade, but would be better on our side than theirs.

Will be skipper in 6-7 years.

Sometimes winning isnt always four points...

I think its ridiculous that people are defending how he is going because he wasn't fit enough at the start of 2012 and came good. Surely that says he didn't work hard enough in pre-season to be in better nick at the start of 2013.

I'd prefer we finished 5-17 with a percentage of 80+ than finish 9-13. Better draft picks = better young talent and the boys will still learn how to be competitive and the effort that is required. We can languish like Melbourne have with percentages in the 50s...

Will call him Jed if he becomes a star...

I have a connection to someone at a strong Melbourne club, his thoughts were "Not sure if he really WANTS to play AFL, if he gets his head right he could end up the next Buddy, more likely to not make it though..." Take that for what you will, god I hope he is the next Buddy! :D I spoke to...

Re-build is on... Exciting to see the new blood!

He cried because fisher told him to beat it

You're kinda correct as the German colours were then Red, White & Black. We changed White to Yellow around WW1.

This, so much of this. Playing Blake has no long term benefit. Test the kids out whilst quality senior players can still guide them. Would love to see Wright play the rest of the season - in fact I'd love to see a hand full of our young blokes with at least 20 games under his belt by seasons end. Wr...

Milera been the best of the 3 by a way so far this season...

Nail, Head, Hammer and all that...

IMO #1 is the holiest of numbers at St Kilda & it was a bugbear of mine that average players like Newport, Devonport, Peckett & Gram have inherited it after Barks.

Just asked my fiance whether she'd care if I missed birth of child for club cricket 1st XI grand final. She laughed and said "please, i'd want you to play!"

As I said, widely rumoured at the time. If true, pretty s***.

I think you will find the long term recruiting policy under Pelchen will be, recruit the best kicks every time.
It is his trait.
