Membrey would be a handy sub..would also mean we can ease him back!

According to channel 7 news last night all clubs will receive $800,000 each from the AFL for gather round participation.

Stocker did a very good job on Elliot last year playing for Carlton, so would give him that job..Windhager on Nick Daicos, Byrnes on Josh…Battle on Mihocek, Howard on Johnson, Wilkie on McStay, Paton on Bobby Hill. Darcy Moore needs to be kept honest, Caminiti may have the huge role! Odds in this ga...

Steely is STILL a few weeks away.

I’d expect Steele to play against Carlton round 6 & Max round 7 barring mishaps.
Not sure about Webster but I hope to hear something at training this morning.

No coincidence accuracy has improved..there is goal kicking practice after each drill EVERY training session!
They’ve been doing this religiously since the beginning of preseason training.

The players seem to have been pretty focussed, on running their arses off. Most of them are still doing a deep breath before shots for goals, a few even close their eyes. There has been an enormous amount of work done on goal kicking, both set shots and snaps..this includes all players, not just fo...

At some stage the youngsters will need a spell, King, Membrey, Steele and Webster are definitely ins. We’ve needed another tall forward to help Max King, which we now have in Caminiti. Once King and Membrey come back, Owens and Phillipou can rotate forward and midfield. Steele replaces Bytel, maybe ...

No question that Gresham oozes potential, he can be dynamic and occasionally pulls a rabbit out of his hat and scores a miraculous goal. It's just that he has, by virtiue of what Rubiyo weirdly terms his 'insufficiences', on occasion let his team mates down, and no, rather than his team mates adapt...

Lethlean mentioned in an interview that a 70,000 crowd would equate to hundreds of thousands of dollars in gate receipts.

Whatever will be will be this season but I’m very bullish about our fortunes going forward. Remember when we bemoaned the fact we had very little in the way of decent young players? Fast forward to now, we have about a dozen aged between 18 & 21! Doubt all will make it but with the development t...

Tony is far from a club apologist..it’s simply that currently there’s a lot of positivity about the place, those of us regular training watchers, which he in one of many, are best equipped to inform you guys.

Isaac is an excellent PROSPECT…he’s very light & needs a full preseason to get stronger.
He has been blessed with skill and athleticism but needs work on body strength and endurance.

I would be keeping the powder dry on Clark. Although he is doing ok in the possession stakes, he is still yet to play anymore than 66% game time this year. At times he looks like he is running up and down in the one spot. I dont know what sought of a contract $$$ he is on, but if we could get a pla...

Excellent read again..thanks saynta

Not long ago we were bemoaning the lack of talented young players on our list..fast forward to now and we have 10 players 18-21 on our list, most with a genuine shot at making it.
Exciting times ahead!

Nas signing was announced to the playing group out on the oval..fantastic response from the players & our ‘brains trust’group!!

I huge thanks to saynta for regularly posting the mongrel punt..always a great read!

Calm the farm people..I really like moose but please be patient.

Footskills are young Peris’s weakness,, tidy that up & he’ll debut at some stage.
He was very prominent in match sim on Thursday!

Cordy will be in the starting 23 every week simply due to the fact that he can play back, forward and pinch hit in the ruck.
He’s a guy that plays to his strengths and within his limitations..a very good pick up!!

Caminiti has been instant, albeit delayed from his draft year. The kind of injured kid you make promises to. His impact against the Dogs shouldn't be overestimated but when you look at the way he went about it, he is certainly one we will all enjoy watching. I tend to agree with Riewoldt for impact...

If Nas wants out SOS will demand one hellava compo deal!!

St Kilda's last six matches vs Essendon when sitting inside the top 8.... 2022 R14 - Lost by 35 2020 R12 - Won by 35 2017 R17 - Lost by 61 2010 R18 - Lost by 33 2010 R8 - Lost by 12 2009 R20 - Lost by 2 The wheel always turns eventually..not that long ago we had that sort of record against Richmond...

You obviosly don't read SS posts or if you did they don't sink in. tony74 stated he was most impressed with Byrnes preseason form. Oh yeah no I read it but I have me owns thoughts. And what ya got to remember is SaintMike65 said Sharman was a lock to play R1 one week before our practice match with ...
