Re: Welcome Dan!!!!!
Is he willing to change his name to Jack as Dan is just confusing. ![Confused :?](./images/smilies/icon_confused.gif)

The Saints are under review, will it make any difference to the underachievers ?

Well said Mr Austin. Dan had a medical at Moorabbin this arvo. Welcome to Moorabbin and the Saints Dan.
Posters that have admitted they were wrong about Hanna's gastro and the club didn't create a cover story.

Re: Welcome Dan!!!!!
Word is that we have offered a future 2nd Rounder for Dan!
I like it
But knowing our luck - next year will be a stronger draft than this one - isn't it always?

Re: Welcome Dan!!!!!
So happy he's coming to the Saints. A 27-year-old, premiership winning, All Australian mid. Great news.
Hopefully his recruitment entices Gaff, Shiel et al to give us serious consideration. Hopefully they won't be thinking if they come to the Saints they'll be struggling in a mid-field without any elite talent.

Re: Welcome Dan!!!!!
Just what we need - an inside midfielder who kicks on the left, is decidedly one sided, no real pace .......... oh wait!!!
the invisible and the non existent look very much alike

Re: Welcome Dan!!!!!
I completely agree but is sounds like he is coming so get used to it. Another broken player that will play the same role as a lot of others. Hopefully the deal falls over but if not welcome Hanners,

Re: Welcome Dan!!!!!
so that blows trading next years first rounder to get someone else or buy another first round this year. mind you next years could well be the no. 1 pick, so better keep it.

Re: Welcome Dan!!!!!
I'm so annoyed with Hanners coming to our club. He will probably really improve our team and if we start winning games that will then probably make Richo look like a genius and that flog Finnis will take all the credit. He'll probably want to have a CEO appreciation round.

Hanners plays at a similar pace and level to Armo has this year and we lock up 800 K for the next 5 years on a bloke that doesn't actually improve our performance at all.
We give up next years second rounder which will be pick 20 in an excellent draft.
We trade away a couple of under-performing young players and they become stars at rival clubs.
Richo gets sacked in round 8 when we have no wins.
Membership numbers tank.
We can't attract any decent free agents because we are bottom four again.

Re: Welcome Dan!!!!!
Holy crap...nailed it Dragit!
Sadly, just about every pessimistic take on our plight of the last 5 years has been spot on. I wish the club would wake up and reset, there's no harm in admitting you gave a rebuild a crack and it didn't work out.

Re: Welcome Dan!!!!!
The rebuild didn't just not work out, it's so far tanked in spectacular fashion.
I can only assume the club's administrators have their pride, but also worry about their professional reputations after they leave St. Kilda FC, so the last thing they want to do is admit mistakes.

I can see the interview with Bassat (or even Lethlean!)

Bassat: "Missionary"
