Re: A bonus from 2019

We have found a number of decent players unexpectedly this year. Some may laugh but this will really create competition for spots in 2020 and bode well for the future when we have a fully fit list again. Watch this space. Mainly: # Marshall (definite 1st ruck and could be anything) # Wilkie (HBF fo...

Re: Reality checks

Who has posted that Richo is wholly and solely to blame? In the past 18 months there have been quite a few SS subscribers who have made it quite plain that in their opinion Alan Richardson is the reason St Kilda are under performing, and want him sacked - he has been criticised for all sorts of iss...

Re: Jack Stevens Trade

Love "Jacky Boy" out & out our best player but if he want's out no point trying to keep him. I suspect Geelong will be his destination of choice so we need to get a decent reward if he chooses to go. Can't say I blame him he's almost 30 his chances of winning a flag with us before his ...

Re: If we beat the Blues....

....we are still 5-5. I'm taking that any day this pre-season folks. We have an easier draw in the second half of the year so we could still chalk up a few more wins. IMO, I reckon we will come home with a bit of a wet sail. Yes, good post. Beat Carlton and after Port in China (NO CHANCE!) we play ...

Someone mentioned reality checks
This will be it
Totally agree - if we win and win well then the season may be back on track - not looking to be contenders - but would be happy being a pretender in September this year!
And if we lose ?

Re: Reality checks

A balanced and level headed OP for once without the hysteria following a loss or bad patch of form. Give it a rest Ted it's hardly hysteria it's just pointing out what we need to do before we can be a genuine contender . You can gloss over the cracks with your annoying spin but reality is reality .

Re: Reality checks

Like any Saints supporter i was really disappointed that St Kilda was thoroughly smashed in the last quarter, despite being right in the contest in the first three. No doubt the anti Richo crowd will be sharpening their blades even more so now, in their (what I consider unreasonable) conviction tha...

Re: Tom Boyd Retired

According to my son - can’t find any articles though I guess you can argue his premiership game made him worth it - but you would have to say his recruitment otherwise must have hurt the dogs pretty bad If I could recruit one player that could win us a flag I would pay double what they paid.

Re: Team V Pies

On paper they look a ten goal better team but if we come to play who knows. I suppose all we can do is hope we can be competitive at least. I would have liked Hind & Clark to get a gig & maybe White was unlucky but I'm not selector :wink:

Re: mmmmmm- Umpire Movement Rd 9

Correct move AFL. Of course its cold comfort to know the margin was 3 goals. Umpires fortunately do not effect the result of games, which is a relief given some decisions. Hard to claim they don't effect percentage though. But it can effect momentum those 2 goals in the first quarter gave them huge...

Re: I think it is quite likely that we will not

I said at the start of the season we would be in the bottom 2 & now I think maybe bottom 4 . We have improved but still along way to go to before we a serious threat to the 8. Hopefully next year Bytel & King can have an impact , our 2nd & 3rd year players develop, we have a better run w...

Re: No help for Rowan

Rowan sure needs help, he looks a little knocked up to me. Longer is showing good form (you can only beat the opponent your given), Longer has done this constantly in the VFL for a month and had 71 hit outs, 19 touches, a goal and was important when the game was up for grabs on Sunday. So, maybe, j...

Re: Changes v Pies

From actually seeing the Sandy game it would have to be Young. We need some one who can hit the score board at that is Young. Hind is not far away but I think we need a forward more than a back. Also Hunter was really good but Id give him more time to really get his confidence up. Sad thing is that...

Re: Changes v Pies

Phillips has plenty of upside and should stay in, but Long needs to go back to VFL. White is going great at Sandy, so he should get a game. Just worried that too many of our experienced players have gone off the boil and are not bringing their A game- doing occasional good things doesn't add up to ...
