Re: Josh Bruce to be traded?
I'm hearin' this but is it not realistic enough to insist on a Steven-Kelly-Hill three-way and hold onto pick 5? Freo win in that trade. If you could go back a year in time then yes. But here and now in 2020, NO . At the end of 2020: -Kelly is significantly worth more than Hill -Hill is significant...

Hell... they can have Jack Newnes, too, if that makes it happen!! This then protects 5 for us

Re: Josh Bruce to be traded?
Yeah., Good point. I don't get the J Bruce talk.... unless it is prompted by another club that wants him. I'd be keeping him.

Re: Why the talk of Nathan Brown being at the end?
Ha, ha, ha.... you might need to get over my deliberately controversial topics and assertions.
The smart people took it for what it was... a talking point.
Unproductive belittling commentary is a bit disappointing.

Why the talk of Nathan Brown being at the end?
Dude's 30-31. Playing well. Best disposal eff. at the club.
Supported by Battle, Wilkie, Clav, perhaps Logan... why is he being talked about like he's 35?

Re: Carlisle on trade table
I cut him some slack because of his injury. With Brown approaching retirement we have no other gorillas in the backline and they're hard to get. Why throw him away? And keep a whole platoon of battlers? It's like trading away McEvoy, Stanley and Hickey. Thing is... Brown is only 30. With Wilkie, Cl...

Re: Jimmy Webster - Anyone Else Concerned???
He’s a much better player than Coffield atm Savage and Geary are walk up starts in back 6 Savage and Webster being walk ups are why we suck. We need to find a guy who cracks in as hard as Webster, but can kick. We need to find a bloke that is harder in the contest than Savage, and can use it just a...

Has everybody lacked imagination? For the past number of years St Kilda has been vanilla. A vanilla coach, vanilla captain, vanilla drafting priorities, vanilla brand (and vanilla playing record).

Re: Ben Long is our best player and should be made captain
This thread's a joke, right? A, he's not our best player and B, since when do you make your best player captain? Better they keep being the best player and let the best leader be captain. This is complete bollocks. I reckon half the teams in history have their best player as captain. (I don't agree...

We had to create the trigger to ensure he remains contracted so we have leverage if we choose to trade him.

Re: Has today's heavy loss hurt Ratten's chances??
No. But it did hurt some players For too long we have prioritised effort over skill. I hope they appoint Ratts because he clearly has had a gutful of poor skill already. It’s exactly what we need to bring into the club. Agreed, but more nuance... WE prioritised athleticism during the Lyon era over ...

I love Harves, however, he hasn’t coached his own team.

Re: Second Ruck for 2020 and beyond
He won't come. He would surely be a no.1 ruck; won't come to play second fiddle.SinCitySainter wrote: ↑Mon 19 Aug 2019 7:16pm Ryder is the one I would be looking at.
Can do a job at either end of the ground as he showed in his days at the Bombers and is a good first ruck if Marshall goes down.

Re: Second Ruck for 2020 and beyond
I think we'll not get an outstanding ruckman. Who would want to come to play second string? Change of focus required now. We need a backup ruckman. The names mentioned aren't that.

Leadership qualities seem important in that role. Any comment on those? He's pretty vocal onfield but I think not as vocal as he would be as a captain. Family designed the jumper - it's a great emotional link to the club and I reckon he cares. There are different kinds of leaders. I think Ben would...

Re: Ben Long is our best player and should be made captain
His best is a class above anything else we have . But only brings his best maybe once or twice a game at most, and then goes missing for extended periods. If he can get his hands on the ball an extra 6 - 10 times per game he will easily be our most dangerous and exciting forward. I agree with what ...
