Re: Hit outs
Agreed, Hickey is the exact reason for a down turn in form? Because he was playing then... Maybe Maister? He was in the side then? Not to mention any other of the other players who are now on short or LTIs since that time? Armo, Geary, Eli, Gilbert, Schnieder, Wright, Gwilt, Or then poorer form of ...

Re: Hit outs
Dont know but Hickey is a very good young ruckman and a great pickup by our Saints.Con Gorozidis wrote:Apparently Hickey has a hand span of 25cm.
Thats enormous.
Does anyone know Stewie's hand span? Out of interest?
Notice how poorly we have gone without him? No co-incidence.
Hickey is a hugely exciting prospect

Re: Hit outs
Speaking of Hickey, (in Pluggers post), when is the big fella back? We sure have gone backwards without his skills, rucking ability, nullifying effect on the opposition ruckman, and most importantly another avenue to goal, which we have sorely lacked. Longer will be good, but Hickey is the man for t...

Can you guys please stay on topic? Rhys Stanley is the most dissapointing big player at the Saints since Kosi went downhill after having his skull cracked. At least Kosi put his body in. I always want our players to perform and achieve and make it. Doubt Stanley will. I wont denigrate him by childis...

Re: Sam fisher in the bo
Don't blame any of them considering the absolute tripe their team mates were serving up on the field. I would have been doing the exact same thing. I only saw them in the final quarter when their team mates had given up and would not even compete against the opposition. Good on them, probably on the...

Re: May not be popular
I agree with the Op except for playing up to our potential. We did for part of the first qtr, the second and third, then completely fell to pieces terribly in the fourth. Should have been a 40 point loss, blown out to 86 points. Richo found that totally unacceptable as we all should. As for calling ...

It was claimed he didn't rate ruckmen, but he clarified this by stating he rated GOOD ruckmen.

If we finish last surely we get picks 1 and 19? Or is there still some dodgy help the b@stard love-children clubs out with more charities.

The Sidebottom incident will (should) be assessed as Reckless conduct (2), high contact (2) and high impact (3) for 7 activation points and a level four offence.

Re: 'Go again Lenny' says Coach
Richardson's statements were pretty emphatic, on both Dog's value as a guide and example, and his on field performances. Maybe Richardson's reflecting on some of the following measures of Dog's performances on field (he's played 8 of 9, took Rnds 2 and 3 to get going, but these are averages across ...

Free to be drafted next year... I haven't read the reasons but how could this possibly be justified? He did the crime but because he's a good bloke he gets a reduced sentence?

If the Saints have any morality and any type of welfare for the players, they have to either take him with a final dp or as mature aged rookie.

Re: Most valuable commodities
Your opinion counts for nothing when it has been proven wrong. As for me not being on the AA selection committee, it wasn't me making unsubstantiated and factually incorrect claims about Jack Steven and AA selection. The onus is on you to prove your statement in the light of the facts presented i.e ...
