All is looking godd at the moment.

A few niggling injuries to others is probably to be expected. Geary will need to be at the top of his game.

Geary should be playing for Sandringham and only come in if / when injuries strike.

How about you Nuffies stop with all the Bull S H I T and start talking St Kilda?

I'd like to see him play a couple of games early and unless he's in red hot form (why would you flirt with that and unnecessarily kill confidence) - have a spell at Sandy for a couple of weeks and then rinse and repeat for the first half of the season. My gut feel is that once the frenetic pace and...

the Dutch for me.

Speaking of the Dutch, do they come from Holland or The Netherlands? (warning, this maybe a trick question).

I have no clue but I find it difficult to comprehend the logic around devaluation of a playing asset. Common sense would assume a player showing form and leadership would be nurtured not marginalized whilst fulfilling the role where he is required by the team. What ever happened it is now in the pa...

We won but the girls must have the same goal kicking coach the men have. We kicked 6.10

I think Logan Austin will surprise a lot of people this year. He should be at full back because he is magnificent at spoiling and has the height and pace. IMHO, there is enough room to play 3 talls in the backline. Austin, Howard and Carlisle. Personally I would not play Roberton unless one of these...

I reckon King will be in the top 5 for contested marks this year and kick 35 goals. If his knee holds up. 'Top 5' Darryl Kerrigan says 'tell him he's dreaming' Lol If he learns well, develops well, top 5 in about 4-5 years. Big hypothetical. I'm happy to back in my opinion. Time will tell.

Our growth shouldn't be about trying to find new supporters. That's an exhausted market. Hawthorn make their dough from pokies. Don't believe the bulls***. Pokies are their cash cow - they try to hide that grubby truth by inflating their supporter and membership numbers. It's a smokescreen. There's...

Dad was 25 when he came to Victoria from Capricorn Coastal QLD.. They played Rugby up there as kids and I wonder if he had mush heard of StKFC less so barracked for them,. Lived in StKilda East. The Saints were terrible, I mean diabolical, but he liked the local vibe, and developed a following for ...

Nominate the five teams that will slip a few notches and make way for the mighty Saints. I'll have a go. 1) Port Adelaide 2) West Coast 3) Brisbane 4) GWS 5) Collingwood For what it's worth, here is my prediction..... West Coast Brisbane Greater Western Sydney Richmond Western Bulldogs Collingwood ...

4) GWS
5) Collingwood

Is this a joke? Port Adelaide is a maybe but the other 4 will not slip.

It sounds all very positive. Lets hope it pans out this way.

Those were the days.

I believe we will play finals in 2020. The real question is "Do we have enough youth coming through" to continue to improve? And then eventually win the dam thing by 2025? Then I would have to say no. Because we have sacrificed 2 drafts and stuffed up the 2014 draft we now have to rely on ...

Trout hurt us for many years with that decision

He beat his PB by 28 seconds.

Never going to happen and thank the lord for that. Now, how do we get out of the China deal? You think the air in Melbourne is bad at the moment? It is worse than that in Shanghai all year round. And if we get out of the China deal saynta I'm sure you will gladly make up $1mill shortfall every year...

This is the team I would like to see round 1. The oldies that I have left out should only play if we are hit by injuries. This is the precise reason why Geary should not be captain IMHO. Battle, Austin, Coffield Clark, Howard, Carlisle Hill, Steele, Jones Billings, Marshall, Sinclair Gresham, King, ...

I'm excited we got Howard too but he wasn't exactly a steal. We gave Port a more than handy first round pick.

Personally, I am more excited about Logan Austin finally playing for us. Ironically also from Port....
