On SEN WA this morning Freo Representative* said that Liam Henry always wanted to move to Melbourne from the start. *Manager of Football???

Welcome to the Saints Liam. No 9 in the 2019 Draft and just starting to show what he can do this year. https://scontent.fper10-2.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t39.30808-6/393155811_736026945235364_690207589144253411_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_s960x960&_nc_cat=101&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=5f2048&_nc_ohc=4dR3Z_VAhpQA...

It always hurts to lose players but there is no new players without a cost in trading. So happy enough in the end.

Give me a break you mob, the AFL is influenced by many things and it has been helpful to our club in the past when we really needed it and that's one of the reasons we are still in town. It's a bit childish to carry on so much about mama giving too stuff to the other kids in the family. I for one do...

AFL REPORTED TODAY: ST KILDA would be comfortable matching Essendon's contract offer to Jade Gresham if it does not trigger end of first-round compensation for the restricted free agent. The Bombers plan to lodge paperwork for Gresham in the next 24 hours and list manager Adrian Dodoro said the club...

2023 showed us that it's a toss up. Look at the ladder predictions at the end of last year. Plenty had Freo, Bulldogs, Geelong and Richmond in the top 8 and some in the top 4. For me it's GWS and Gold Coast to worry about. Yep, Gold Coast seems to be under everyone's radar and it's not just the new...

Hawks, GC, Dogs. Those three will put pressure on us unless we get more class in the midfield. Yeah but also our youngsters with a bit of body building and further development etc and here's hoping for the injury gods looking down on us kindly .. .. Essendon? North Melbourne? They can only go upwar...

Dougal is criticized immensely on this forum when he plays but the backline is nowhere near as strong when he isn't. Callum can't do everything and we only have one of him.

Sounds like a good prospect without breaking the bank both ways.

A chinese company based in WUHU I guess these cars will end up being judged on their plus/minus merit's eventually, just like products from western countries. Most of us did shake off the belief that everything made in Japan is only junk around 50 years ago. [vid]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8lt...

Yep, it may spark a new life and good luck to him. He has put many a smile on my face over the years

Congratulations Scollop for adding Ben Long ….how on earth??? He was playing seconds at GC by the end of the season BTw. Hill wasn't perceived as being this good when he played at GWS, but none the less he's had consistency and hadn't been moved to the backline. Isn't this thread about all the attr...

Bobby was a standout in a game where there we few. He didn't kick that many before but full credit for seizing his moment. How anyone can think we specifically need a Bobby Hill to be successful will be waiting a long time.

This thread reminds me of the supporters of affluent teams whinging about us whenever the AFL gives handouts to keep us afloat, even when it's just a rumour.

Maybe Caminiti. I don't think he's that good. Unless Caminiti improves another 50% next year he won't stay on. WOW, so a 19 yo kid picked up in the Supplemental Selection Period (SSP) and played heaps of games and was replaced when he was spent late in the year. The only possible way he won't impro...

Every year similar complaints with many of them having some credibility and there is sure to be a lot more to come. I would prefer the votes included the coaches votes as well but it is what it is. The oversized gaudy and ostentatious event is drawn out with so much bulldust which is far too long. B...

I don't see any reason to pick up Minnie at the moment but he is sure to get an assistant coach role somewhere sometime.

Congratulations girls. I got 'a bit distracted' after half time but later heard them singing the song in the background so went back and watched the last half. Well done.

Great Vid

Ratten started Hill on a wing Struggled to impact due to decreased fitness from previous years Moved him to the easier position of HB where he played some good footy. Occasionally he played HF but was again inconsistent. Hill had a HUGE pre season and got his running power back Lyon has played Hill...

2 + 2 = Whatever stories that are conjured up by some supporters who are only too eager to harp on about when they only have the absolute minimum of detail.

Nothing wrong will predicting for fun but even for a magician it would only be very wild guesswork as we don't even know how our team will line-up, we don't know all the other teams line up, and don't even know the draw yet.

Nevertheless I'll 'predict' Saints 4th-8th

Dogs sniffing is a normal act, as long as the club don't get pissed or shat on.
