Re: The coach, walking things back....a bit.
I got no walking things back from that all What I got was an honest appraisal that if we don’t stop stumbling and fumbling we won’t and don’t deserve to play finals I also got ownership from the senior coach that the narrative around the saints has been directly impacted by his messaging He owns th...

Re: This year's draft
What I want to happen: Ideally I want to trade Gresham out and do a first round pick swap (if we finish higher than Carlton) for Paddy Dow and our compo pick. With that pick swap we should be looking around that 10 spot and land a gun midfielder in Darcy Wilson. He’s a two way runner, burst speed, g...

Re: Jack Byte’s back. Team v Roos
I hope Bytel gets a run at it and finishes the Great Jack Bytel Debate of '23. You think all players should be judged on just 1 game do you? I hope not. The young man needs 4-5 games just to get used to his team mates in seniors and their voices Scollop don’t go back tracking now. You have been tal...

Re: “Should Win” this Weekend
I too would also like to thank Tony for all his contributions. Do we know if the player only meeting was run by RTB or the player leadership group?

Re: List criticisms
The fragility of our “Older” demographic was on display today As I have mentioned, we just do not have an older demographic to stand up and lead, to set the example and to lift the side Hill (curtailed?) and Crouch were honest And that was it The next rung down and the summary is repeated Steele, S...

Re: List criticisms
Anyone thinking the offer of a multiple year deal for Byrnes is a good idea? I’m in two minds. I personally don’t rate him. He has flashes of brilliance and then does something so moronic and undoes everything he builds for. His two way running is great. I reckon play hard to get and offer him a 1-...

“Should Win” this Weekend
We “should win” this weekend against the Kangas with the amount of injuries they have. Coleman-Jones out with concussion. Jy Simpkin out with injury. Zurhaar out with injury. Wardlaw out with injury. We are expecting to get back Higgins and there’s questions marks on Jack Billings if he’s good to go...

Re: Forward entry deficiency
Agreed. I’ve seen him bark orders in defence when I was on the boundary. He pulled up Stocker and scolded him. Than praised NWM with a classy intercept. That’s a captain right there. He was playing amazing AA form when he was the step in captain.

Re: Bailey Smith
100% we should be targeting this bloke. His breakaway speed, two way running and his ball use is what we need desperately in the midfield. He’s a big advocate of mental health and I think Saints can get around him. I have heard a similar rumour as he recently broke up with his girlfriend and is look...

Re: What do we need to improve in 2024?
We need: 1x Ruck / Forward to assist Marshall = TDK. There’s no real Rucks in this year draft that are a gun, ready made, reside in VIC or will fall to our pick. Best bet just to get TDK or spend the soft cap and develop Moose / Keeler. 1x Key Defender = Mackay or F/R Draft Pick like Connor O’Sulliv...

Re: In for next week against Rooboys - Four at least
Don't see Bytel solving the issues we have, he has the same problem- ball use and speed. Higgins, Hayes and Heath all coming into the side allows Owens to spend more time on the ball meaning all of the below offer more to our onball options than Bytel. Steele Crouch Clark Jones Owens Windhager Sinc...

Re: We have hit rock bottom
After I’ve calmed down a bit over yesterdays loss. I don’t think we have hit rock bottom. We got 4x A-Graders in the making in NWM, King, Owens and Phillipou. More games we can get into them the better they will become. That’s a good nucleus we can build upon and push for finals in 2-3 years time. W...
