Saints have BATMAN Peris has a secret identity he is the son of two Olympic sprinters Mum is Nova Peris of hockey and sprintng fame. But dad was sprinter Daniel Batman. At least he’s not a Kneebone. Then he would have been connected to North Melbourne. I always thought the knee bone was connected t...

Western Bulldogs Josh Dunkley Josh Dunkley was a FS player but wasn’t picked by his fathers team. He played for Sydney, WB bid on him, Sydney passed. They got him fair and square. While I get what you are saying in the thread of the article, St Kilda can’t really throw stones. We were gifted Kosi i...

I am now very interested to see where we stand in terms of average age across the league. Adding 6 very young blokes, while having quite a few veterans retire would make us one of the youngest now. Compared to last year when it was skewed with the older top up veterans and no real youth being picke...

I would like to have Naish train with us in line to try for a ssp spot.
Any other glaring list needs now?
Any other loose players worth grabbing?

Does that mean we get first dibs on him in the rookie draft?

We can now pre select the 2 NGA players as category B rookies now, before the rookie draft starts.

Do we only have enough points to grab Owens and Windhager , or will we be able to pick up the other NGA’s we listed? we will still be able to get these two players but most likely we will go into deficit unless they both really slide. as it stand the next pick is 21 1096. If Owens went here we woul...

Do we only have enough points to grab Owens and Windhager , or will we be able to pick up the other NGA’s we listed? Points are irrelevant after pick 40. After that it is next available pick. The other 2 blokes will not be picked in the first 40. Even then, I would assume they won’t get picked at a...

I hope he boards with Hill and picks up his running ability while he is at it.

Well, he does come from a good family. A couple of good families as it turns out. Some very good families.

TYANNA Smith's season is over before it started, with the young Saint suffering an ACL injury at training. Smith, who was nominated for the NAB AFLW Rising Star award in her debut season, went down with an injured left knee during a training session on Saturday morning. Subsequent scans confirmed t...

Please put a capital "W" before any thread titles. I've no interest in that league. With the amount of absolute garbage that gets spilled on this forum, sifting through the tiny amount of saint’s women’s media and news should be the least of your concerns. You don’t like it, hit the home ...

Now that everyone knows it’s about a AFLW player, anyone want to discuss the contents of the article?

I’m gonna say that would be highly speculative this far out.

For me there are three questions we need to ask? 1. Does he walk into the best 22? 2. Is he a Back up Key Backman? 3. Is he a Back up Ruckman? For me these are the three areas we need to look at for any DFA. The answers are no, no and no. Pass for me. I absolutely agree with you here when discussin...

A lot of talls just don't seem to cut it. Brisbane have delisted Connor Ballenden who is 22yo, 198cm and 96kg. Same draft as Brander. Yeah. I think that was a cracking draft in hindsight. I remember at the time that I didn’t want Brander or Ballenden because I didn’t want a KPP. Happy to grab Brand...

He is a yes for me.
But he fits in the exact category as Battle.
He doesn’t know where is best position is.
Slightly undersized as a KPP.
But fit enough to be a winger, just not good enough at it.

diddley

Who else would you have rated in the top 50 right now? Honestly?

diddley

Correct ! Yes our pick 9 does become pick 11 but the pick is not diluted Pies/Dogs jump in to grab two players being Daicos/Darcy NOT ANYONE ELSE ALL other potential draftees are still available to us & other clubs I expect North to bid on Daicos then bid on Darcy then take their true selection...
