Re: Phillipou

I think Pou is at a point in his career that he is not physically or mentally ready to be an AFL midfielder. He’s good overhead and can kick a goal. If we are determined to get games into him the role is half forward pushing up where he can run at the ball and use his talent. He should be playing a ...

You can act like a princess or do the role for the team as asked of you by the coaching staff.

Your post states which one you lean toward.

Re: Game Day R1 2024 Cats V Saints

Not making the trip myself but I am quite optimistic for today. We have a busy team with a lot of runners - if we can stick our disposal… reckon we could outwork them.

Re: Tarryn Thomas, anyone?

sign on the dotted line son Why are you sold on him? North Melbourne gave him umpteen chances and he kept being a POS. He has trouble written all over him.

Re: Tarryn Thomas, anyone?

Lovett Bennell Lyon loves a failed experiment The difference is we gave up a first round draft pick for Lovett, who had only one gift - pace. Thomas is extremely talented and a delisted FA, but by all accounts has serious off field issues. I wouldn’t say we take him, but I’d be disappointed if we d...

Re: Wilson! First-round draftee primed for Round 1 debut

Does this means Garcia, Collard, Schoenmaker are not in the 22 or just that we have gone early with the Wilson selection?

Looks like three Saints newies with Bonner, Henry & Wilson.

Are we likely to see another?

Interesting that Sheedy, who has from outward appearances done more for indigenous footballers and championed their cause more than any other AFL coaching figure is accused of inciting on-field racism.

16th on the ladder

After opening round.

Not the start to the season we were hoping for, a long way back from here to make finals.

Is this another preseason of hope turning into disappointment?

Not really a replacement for Jimmy though. Make us too top heavy.
Stocker probably plays lock down small defender alongside perhaps Windy if he is fit.
