Note I would actually prefer Chesser with our first but there is a lot of noise around us being interested in Sinn.

[skeptic]

I can’t help but feel as though I’m going to be disappointed this draft... not a fan of Sinn

Really feel Sonsie is the guy and feel hot n cold on Wanganee -Milera... reckon he’s something else but also am not sure if he’s got enough tools in the box.

Yes did it this afternoon.

I dont proclaim to be an expert - I just watch a lot of footage and read everything I can about the kids. For me it is as intriguing as the season itself, as like most clubs I feel it has been of short coming of the Saints in past years. Having said that our recruiting has improved 10 fold since Chris Libartore has taken over.

Sinn as our first round pick is gaining momentum, apparently at the most recent testing he has gained 6 kgs and grown to 191cms tall. Although he played as a hbf this year, I believe he has played midfield in his earlier years. As Skeptic suggested Sonsie or Hobbs are the more proven mids but I was just trying predict what the clubs would do, rather than anything else.

Sinn as our first round pick is gaining momentum, apparently at the most recent testing he gas gained 8kgs and grown to 191cms tall. Although he played as a hbf this year, I believe he has played midfield in his earlier years. As Skeptic suggested Sonsie or Hobbs are the more proven mids but I was just trying predict what the clubs would do, rather than anything else.

I like your Rookie selections, tall kids who may develop into Key Position players.

It’s easy to be critical but I always say “Let those without Sinn cast the first stone”

Great job Impatient! Thanks for taking the time to pull this together

My understanding is although they make a lot of noise about Sinn, saints are actually opposed to Sinn.
Saints don't do sinn.

Please please please not another flanker…

Please please please not another flanker…

They might surprise us, as there are a number of good quality pure mids touted as later choices. I agree on the need for a pure inside/outside midfielder Sonsie, Taylor, MacDonald, Erasmas & Johnson. Then there are players like Jackson, Long, Butler & Knevitt but we could probably trade down and pick them up.

Either way on there recent recruiting history, Ill back Libartore and his crew to get it right!

I think you are on the money with Sinn.

However, if Gibcus slips through to pick 11 he would be hard to pass up.

Pure defender with a tremendous vertical leap. A rebounder who can also play one on one. He is the best backman in this draft.

Also like the look of Johnson. Deceptively quick who can seemingly make time stand still.

Either way we will get someone really good at 11.

And if we also get our academy boys, laughing.

Another mad Saints supporter (Blake Howes) just like Rozee was, hopefully we can bet them back to the club before too long?
