I think this was well-publicised when he came to us - from memory, it was part of the reason in fact.

Correct.

As I said, no club is overpaying 5 players $100k each.

Were any of those games played on Nathan Brown though, cause he is not much chop apparently.

Neither is a fringe player, that's the point of the conversation, don't get off task pls.

This is the problem when you set the benchmark of $800k for an ageing broken down DH. :roll: He’s worth about $1.5M on that scale. Yeah if we weren't paying Hannebry 800k Billings would stay for 400k. :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: Lol. Whatever Hannebery is on will not effect any contra...

GeeWiz, looks like I'm caught in the crossfire here, bye!

Are we allowed to use that sought of language and argue on here?

No, Max King.

Most on here gave him votes.

Not bad for a fringe player.

Fringe players don't come Top 10 in the B&F, not in any year.

One of the best Saints win in the last 30 years in full.

Great upload.

Drove to Adelaide for this one. My of my best Saints memories ever.

Long drive, from Adelaide to Adelaide.

I cannot wait to see Maxy King come in....will give us that much needed height and mobility on the forward line. Expectations shouldn't be high initially but he has exceptional qualities and in time will be a Goliath for us - thank God recruiters opted for Maxy at pick 4 especially given Paddy's si...

I know he is out for the year but do we know if the op was a success or is it too early to tell?

Check Instagram, he is on there working hard with Jake in the gym.

Hah?

I'm not him clearly.

Wasn't trying to offend at all.

That's your opinion, your entitled to it, hint, when you are developing a 'good team', you ask some to step outside their comfort zone and see what they are or are not capable of. Anyway, agree to disagree, all the best with your 'old school' processes. Cheers

So no alternative to Nathan then?

No defender stays on any forward for a whole game these days, that's modern footy.

Wilkie was no match up for big Tex That's right, so Playfair screwed up and if I was Richo I would have said to Playfair that Brown needs to be trusted to do the job. Richo is the head coach who specifically recruited Nate to take on the power forwards like Tex. He loves his type so much he's got a...

Gee, doesn't take long on here for the locals to turn does it?

I'm only a newbie, but gee guys, it is only our 2and loss for the year.

It thought this would be a more positive experience tbh, oh well.

BarryGrogan is a new name to Saintsational and seems obsessed by fractions.

Perhaps, he was previously known as Stan the Statistician from Stradbroke Island?

Haha.

Kent OUT sorry can’t make those capitals any more capital - O U T Longer OUT - hopefully forever - no offence — actually besides some absolute howlers went for and took a couple of marks amd was probably one of his better games - BUT is not a player likely to be picked ina top 4 team - I’m astounde...

IMO we've improved a little bit, and think we'll finish somewhere around 8th to 12th. I base my opinion of 'improvement' on whether I'd rater be Fishing, Punting, Gardening, Cleaning out the Shed or sitting down and watching the Mighty Sainters. ATM I can't wait for footy to roll around each weeken...

The only thing I've got against playing both of them, is our forward set up and defence. We've lost Lonie for 6-8 weeks, I don't think someone can come in and do what he's been doing. Then if you put Marshall in there as well, our forward defence may fall down. If Bruce doesn't get up, Battle has t...

So who would you play ahead of Brown then?

Why is it when we lose, some supporters can only still single out the same whipping boys?

Not picking a fight, just a serious question.

Tom Browne makes stuff up. Check out his Twitter exchange with Jack Reiwoldt who called him out.

All media make stuff up, it's their job.

Not ideal

Not sure how it is by default, if so, that means the ten or so others that played worse than him will be getting a game by default.

If that's the case, we might as well not bother travelling.
