Re: Radical Trade Option
Just watched Jack Steven (no "s") run into an open goal and spray his kick, and read Richo's lips in the coach's box, saying: "that's it, trade Jack Steven"!! That's what I like about Richo, he doesn't swear, retains his calm exterior....even when the Saints get belted by close t...

Radical Trade Option
I know this suggestion will attract a lot of critical feedback, but hey, we need to consider all possible options in order to improve our list, and this includes thinking outside the square so to speak.... My proposal is to trade Jack Stevens.... The reasons are straight-forward - of all of the midf...

David Armitage
Recent complaints on this forum about the supposed slow progress of Paddy McCartin reminded me of a time about 4 or 5 years ago when the same views were being expressed about David Armitage, who came to the Saints as first round pick (#9) in the 2006 draft. And to be honest, I was one of those who h...

Re: poor recruiting?
I don't have a problem with any of the recruits we have brought to the club in the past 2 years, with the possible exception of Saad who doesn't possess the nouse to play anywhere other than close to goals. When our team is down and in rebuild as it is now, it is always frustrating to see other team...

Re: Selection puzzle...
Thanks for the responses. Yes, I would have liked to see Hickey in the team against the Pies at the expense of either Schneider or Saad, not just to take the pressure off McCartin but to do some of the work that Roo now performs around the ground, and to support Billy Longer at the stoppages. The ot...

Selection puzzle...
I haven't been following the discussion on this forum about the replacement of Paddy McCartin for Nick Riewoldt v Collingwood, but I can't work out the selectors' logic. I am not at all unhappy about Paddy making his debut and playing regularly, I do rate him as a future "Gun". But I could...

Re-setting the Foundations
As a supporter since the late 50s, enduring the constant highs and lows over the years and only being rewarded once in that lifetime (1966) with the ultimate victory, I can't recall a year where the Saints have offered so much hope as they have in the past few months.....collecting yet another woode...
