Re: Durrrrrr Howard

If that chump is in the best 40 defenders in Australia, then everyone that plays footy should be ashamed. He shouldn’t even be playing for Sandringham 2nds. Surely Lyon just scrubs him from the list. If you could do it you would do it yesterday. Durrr Annoyedsaint Give him a break ... indeed give m...

Re: Let’s talk about cheating

I get the OP statement but winning teams nearly always get strongly favoured by the umpires and we didn't lose simply because of bad umpiring call, although I was shocked over and over again by their pathetic decisions, we lost because we were no-where near good enough with the players we had availa...

Re: Footy Fix: Ross Lyon is the AFL's most boring coach once again - and it's suffocating the Saints' season

If we swapped Membrey with Dixon and their midfield with ours, we would have won by 10 goals. We need a decent midfield and a hulking, one-grab forward. We're probably only 4 star/high-impact players away from a premiership. We are/look "boring" because of that (probably not the game plan...

Re: Team v Port

We have never been successful with quick fix-it rebuilds and also I was just as pissed off with Ross Lyon as anyone else when he walked away from the club, but a do believe that he is going to do everything he can to ensure he does not end up being a flagless coach, and everything he has done so far...

Re: Team v Port

A proper rebuild takes years and is very painful, but for those of us who want to see a second flag in my lifetime I understand that the kids need experience and you don't get to the top in this competition taking short cuts, as it is we, need a great team and some luck. There is a concern though th...

What ever we choose to do I hope cooper and Owens get to play one role for the whole game. They seem to be used as hacking all trades but aren’t mastering any like last year re Owens. Also Sinclair needs to grow his mullet back asap as he is so far off his previous years form He's working his way b...

Sharman should overtake Membrey during the course of the year but he is not there yet. Don't discount Membrey's leadership up forward. ...

Re: North - AFL fiddling

Observation: AFL gifting priority picks/forcing young draftees to a basket case causes more harm than good. If AFL really wants to manufacture results make the top 4 sides at the end of the season each give North 2 players. If young guys get no choice why not established players. Weaken good sides ...

Re: Isaac Keeler

I thought we recruited Keeler to be developed as a future Paddy Ryder type. That made sense, in that Isaac was physically similar to Paddy, was athletic like Paddy, and was exceptional below his knees for such a tall man, just like Paddy. All good so far. Isaac shows plenty of promise as a tap ruck...

Subbing Sharman was ridiculous Yep Cooper stays on and kicks a goal in the last and we win. I think he would have redeemed himself for his 2 early misses. I was pretty disappointed that Sharman wasn't there as a target in that last quarter. We had 10 inside 50s and only scored 1-1 They had 13 for 2...
