Re: How good was Dunstan early?

He was ok but I would not be surprised if he was traded next year. Especially if Bytel comes on as people have been saying. At the end of this year, and especially if Bytel comes on and also Austin hits top form, I can see both Dunstan and Carlisle being traded. If that was the case and we ended up...

Re: Afl lovechild

Firstly on the sponsorship deals; the club sells itself as the vehicle for exposure, but what if you aren't getting much exposure due to ladder postion, well you do something similar to how player contracts are front or rear end loaded. You sell exposure based on short term deals that speculates yo...

Re: Afl lovechild

The AFL have more power than the government, they are one of most successful and profitable businesses in the country. Heaps of cash to splash. We won't overcome their bias.

.......and that was after a court case reversed the result. I hope the girls are not trying to beat this record!!!!

Re: How many true State of Origin players do we have ?

Really surprised Marshall missed out. I am not - I would hazard a guess that he was made "Un-available". I would be thinking that of all the positions that we could least afford to lose a player combined with the higher risk of the position (you can't really go half pace in the ruck) - Ma...

Re: 6 man leadership group announced (Geary C, Ross VC)

I don't agree with this decision. I just hope Geary plays well and fully deserves his spot in the side. If his form is down and not deserving of a spot (which I suspect is more than a 50 50 chance), then the s*** will hit the fan. My original thoughts were that Geary should play only if we were hit ...

Re: Afl lovechild

You all make good points. But as I said, we have the power to overcome the AFL's bias. China and New Zealand, if done properly, will make us one of the biggest clubs in the AFL. This will ensure that we are never in debt again and also ensure our long term survival in the AFL.

Re: Afl lovechild

This is why we MUST continue to play one game in China each year. Also, when Western Springs in Auckland is ready, 2 games every year in NZ. Do both of the above and we will never be in debt again.

Re: Saints set to reveal leadership group (expected Geary captain, no DanHan)

I don't agree with this decision. This was the perfect time to start fresh with a new captain. Now Geary will have to play every week regardless of form and in my opinion there are a lot of medium defenders that have gone past him. I won't name them all because we all know who they are. I can see la...

Just to clarify, I’m not advocating that Geary should not get a game. I am saying that he should not be captain anymore. I believe Seb Ross should be captain.

Re: Seb Ross

Seb wouldn't get a game in most midfields as an attacking mid. As a defensive mid however, he'd play in most. He's an A-Grade defensive mid. He's a C-B offensive mid though. Can't kick. You are completely off the mark Barry. His kicking may not be elite but to say he can’t kick is ludicrous at best...
