Our F*** ups hard to hear about Yorkeys?! Perhaps we should ignore our history??? There's acknowledging our history. And then there's dwelling on it. A week rarely goes by when someone on here doesn't bring up McCartin/Petracca and Bont/Billings. I totally get the frustration. Those picks were wron...

Would be great if we could let the Petracca/McCartin and Bont/Billings thing go. Melbourne picked Trengove and Scully over Dusty and now they're playing in a GF. Bloody good on em. Let's focus on what we can do rather than what we didn't do. We've got a solid list that needs some tweaks. Hopefully w...

Which match winning goals? The one against GWS in round 1 was alright I thought it was Membrey Snap over his shoulder from the boundary. In the wet. Right hand end on the TV. Pretty decent kick. Next goal was Butler after a free against Cal Ward. Lonie, I mean. Though I do agree his time has probab...

Frawley is out for the season, as per AFL.com. Thanks for your service, Chip. Pity it didn't work out...

Just wanted to comment on Darragh Joyce's performance as well. Thought he was great. Gotta play the rest of the season now. Hopefully he can build from that game...

Apologies if there's already a thread about Darragh. Just wanted to mention him.

This will probably get howled down, as their are a few on here that have been calling for Butler to be dropped - and rightly so, to a certain extent. But I'd love if we tried playing him on a wing in the final few rounds. We really need the ball in his hands more often, especially going inside forwa...

The culture is changing for the better. Good coaches good Pres. Inspirational captain. Recruiting recently been ok overall. But we know change takes time and players that won't or can't get on board have to go over time. However AFL does not have flexible employment arrangements and most players ta...

Anyone on here advocating for us to relocate or merge needs to take a decent look at themselves as a St Kilda supporter. That's the kind of weak-kneed capitulation that we as a football club need to distance ourselves from. Can't believe how quickly and easily some people on here turn. Lose a game a...

That’s an excellent observation. Similar indeed. Far out - if we end up with an AA mature age defender from a State league … I may just lose my s*** altogether (in a good way)

Wouldn't it be bloody great

Highmore reminds me of Tom Stewart. Hopefully he can become just as good.

Said after last week's fourth quarter that our fadeouts were all too to do with negative mindset and conservative ball movement. So glad we kept taking the game on in that last quarter when the games was still in the balance. Couple that with our effort, pressure and physical aggressive, we can beat...

Though fitness could be an issue, I blame our fadeouts on a complete lack of courage with the footy. When teams come at us, we tighten up and use the safe option. We go into our shells and want to save the game rather than win it. That said, our connection going inside 50 was atrocious all day. Gave...

Strange time to drop Battle. Thought he was pretty good last week. Has been pretty average before that. Why drop him now?

Anyway, rapt they retained Connolly. Keen to see more of him.

Go Sainters

Good luck to Paul Hunter but I really don't like seeing his name on the team sheet.

Another good article in the Saints quoting Justin Leppitchs comments on SEN - https://www.sen.com.au/news/2021/06/30/theyve-found-their-dna-what-leppitsch-has-loved-about-st-kilda/ Excellent insight. Makes sense of our season to date, compounded by injuries to key players. Our percentage is diaboli...

I thought the style of footy we played was as promising as I've seen under Ratten. Hard, accountable footy. Worked in numbers. Didn't scoot ahead of the ball looking for free kicks. It was a workmanlike performance, which hasn't been a trait of ours under Ratten. Give me that performance over any of...

Keen to see Connolly play. Gotta take the positives where we can get them. Hopefully we can find a way.

Looks like English will miss for them again. I think we really need to exploit their lack of ruck options with Martin out as well. So I'd be against Battle playing as a second ruckman. It pains me to say it but either McKernan or Hunter should come in for Row. Geary in for Lonie and get Gears to loc...

Still feel that whilst Hunter Clark is seen as calm and composed with the ball, hes often way too slow when hes chasing the defender. Im not sure if its that he simply doesnt have the tank for it, or is not a fast runner, or just doesnt try? But his lack of speed is noticeable when he doesn't have ...

Can you blokes not post pure speculation as statements of fact? Would be much appreciated.

Cheers and go Saints.

Total over emphasis on running forward of the ball. Only person willing to run both ways is our skipper.

I haven't been this embarrassed by us in years.

Long will be a regular in our side. despite the thoughts of some ....individuals on here. put your hands up...individuals. I’m something of a supporter of Long and thought he was sensational tonight. Featured in my votes. What’s interesting about him is you can really see the difference between whe...
