Re: Votes v Blues

Thought the work of Dunny, Steele and Marshall helped set us up early. Gresh was brilliant all day and gave us the spark when Carlton had the early lead. Loved the effort from our forward line and their tackling was very good. Kent was busy, Ben Long and Matt Parker provide a certain hardness that i...

Re: A Win For The Direct Facilitators!

We are still in the finals race We're tracking well. Sensational win and great play today. Carlton came at us hard. We were nearly overwhelmed by the wealth of high draft picks against us. Well coached too I personally think 2021 is the year that we will bring home silverware, but if we recruit wel...

Re: Brad Scott

Richo is done as a coach - any sort of coach in the AFL. Full stop!!

I'd also strongly advise his manager to not bother trying to get him a job in the media

Re: Fortius Quo Nepotismo?

I don't think that any St Kilda supporter would ever criticise Roo and Lenny and the efforts of the players (and I hope most don't because when you wear the jumper and bleed for the club, most people know that players are doing their best). I don't think people should be focussing on the PLAYERS the...

Re: No chances or not good enough?

While what you have said about Lyon is correct that was 7 years ago he left. Richo has been here for 5 seasons, and when he started had the likes of Riewoldt, Montagna, Armitage , Milne?, Surely by now what you talk about could also have happened You forgot about Dempster, Sam Fisher, Stuv, Schneid...

Re: No chances or not good enough?

Lots of good questions older saint Yes it is baffling Ghost Like. Perhaps one of the key ingredients to success is to assess each player and work out whether they are part of the future and whether they fit into the type of team you want to build. It's such a complex caper when you come in to a new ...

Re: Fortius Quo Nepotismo?

I rate Brett Ratten and always have. I rate him even more after he served time under Clarko. I'd rather Brett. I don't rate Brad Scott, although I agree that he is miles ahead of Richo. I think there'd be people at the club who were probably negative on Brad many years ago and now all of a sudden po...

Re: Selection integrity ...

I don't think any player has been dropped. Ben Paton may be carrying an injury or have some bruising and niggles so he's being managed. It's not like ALL our list is injured. There are players in the magoos who are playing decent footy and they are just not being given the same opportunities as some...

I think you're being too harsh. Everyone makes mistakes early in their new role. I'd give him at least 5 and half years to get it right

Re: It's round 10

Even if Dan gets on the park and plays a couple for Sandringham and then a couple for the seniors, he is highly likely to break down again...and that means he is a higher chance (at his age and with his recent history) of suffering more soft tissue injuries than our other players
