Re: Which Half Back this week?!

I’m only a miserable footy supporter Seen 3 losing GFs 8 wooden spoons 1 finals wins in 12 years And now this - an inept team that can’t score Otherwise Rest of the time - pretty happy Just give up then. It's not worth being miserable over. Especially if you can't find joy in a win. I'm being serio...

7 goals 7 times in 120 minutes for a cheer We were a soft Max King free kick away from losing a game we dominated The best thing about our game was a tagger!!! Those mids Dow 20, Clark 18, Windhager 15 even Steele 20 Didn’t exactly set the game alight I would hate to be as miserable as you. There i...

Re: Out Membrey In Campbell

Take an A Grader out of the ruck and bring in a D Grader And put Marshall forward where he’s average at best Next Wouldn't expect you to understand. Campbell is a great match up for the Big O. Our forward line is struggling to win 1 on 1 marking contests. If it isn't working you sub Campbell off an...

Out Membrey In Campbell

Would be my change next week.

Marshall to spend more time forward and let Campbell go h2h with the Big O.

Takes heat of King. He was best when he had Ryder/Marshall there too.

Crouch has probably dared to question one of Ross's decisions which we know is enough to see you shown the door. Yes men only down at Moorabbin. Absolutely no selection integrity shown, form in the seconds not worth anything. I can only hope that the decision is to tank to improve our draft positio...

Re: Still effing pathetic

The problem with Ross Lyon is that he doesn't listen to his own rhetoric. He wants to micro manage and he wants control over areas that aren't his domain E.g. player development Took him a while to listen to what people were telling him about Phillipou Let's hope he listens to the advice from DC, L...

Worked out brilliantly for us with BJ, Dal and McEvoy. Looking forward to replacing a consistent top 10 B&F player with the next Tom Lee. I love Battle but to put him in the same category as the 3 above is ridiculous. Also this is about free agency which wasnt really a thing. We don't want to l...

Re: West Coast recent home record

A good win in the west for us, but let's not get too carried away. WCE were undermanned in their forward half with Waterman out, who is a consistent goal kicker for them this season, and we only won by a couple of goals after playing an ordinary first half. I think this is what Enright was saying a...

Re: Latest scuttle butt…

This narrative that he is going to leave for less money is a classic saintsational.net story. No chance of that happening. I think you misunderstood me. I did not mean less money than St Kilda, but he may not take the biggest offer from another club. ie North are evidently the highest bidders, then...

Confused. We have a big war chest but are currently at our cap limit? And as an outsider, I wouldn't say Battle is having poor form. Sure, he's not looking as composed as normal, but neither are Owens Pou Wilkie Sincs NAS Skunk Butler Higgo Caminiti Sharman Byrnes Limit of what we value him at, not...

Re: Latest scuttle butt…

It only makes sense IF he generates Band 1 Compo, and that is not at all certain. If not, we gain a pick that may or may not be as good as Battle and who will be raw. Whomever Battle plays for you know he will play very well for many years. There is a huge assumption that Battle will go only tilla ...

Re: Sandringham v Frankston

Just watched the replay of the last qtr (jet lag interrupted sleep) Sharman looked a class above that qtr. His last goal was also a credit to work rate- he started the transition defensive side of the wing and then followed up to ultimately finish the play too. He is the exact sort of player you don...
