Re: Should we go after Harris Andrews?
Where is Clavarino playing?
I thought he showed a bit when he played.
Good hands.
Not a lot of body strength.

Perhaps like last year we can look at another key position defender later in the draft? I doubt very much Andrews leaves Brisbane & McKay if he was to leave it would be to play with his twin brother.SunnyErnie wrote: ↑Mon 04 Jul 2022 4:35pmWrong, wrong and wrong.
Mids coming through include Bytel, Byrnes, Owens, Windhager. That's enough for now. This offseason we need another 198+cm key back. Harris Andrews or Ben McKay would be perfect for us. The $64Mill question is though, will they be available?
Plus at some stage we are going to have to look at bringing in another AFL ready ruckman?
Amon
McKay
Big forward
Ruckman

Re: Should we go after Harris Andrews?
I'm not being cheeky.... actually really keen to know who is this A GRADE mid field player we have? Are you referring to Steele? Then yes, he's brilliant.The_Dud wrote: ↑Mon 04 Jul 2022 5:29pmTo be successful in this league you need multiple A-grade mids, and we only have one at the moment, and IMO Bytel and Byrnes aren't looking like they'll reach that level, Owens and Windhager have shown flashes but who knows.SunnyErnie wrote: ↑Mon 04 Jul 2022 4:35pmWrong, wrong and wrong.

We need to bring in a player/s who's already proved how good they are.
A gun midfield makes the talls at either end look much better. To improve our backline we need to get a better midfield.
Crouch is also pretty damn good.

St Kilda will forever be the Laughingstock of the AFL
All of us supporters knew that we had to wait until the end of the year to make an informed decision on our next coach. Except of course the brains trust at St Kilda. I will say it again.........
Andrew Basset and the whole board need to be removed immediately. They have destroyed our club due to their lack of professionalism. They are rank amateurs.
Please GT, on Monday I want you to come in and blow them all up!!!

Everyone is sick of your stupid posts, get lost for a while will you.
Rugby League would have to be the stupidest, most moronic and over rated game of all time.

Re: St Kilda will forever be the Laughingstock of the AFL
You can swear as much as you like Saintly66, but the fact of the matter is Ratts took over when we were in the bottom half of the ladder and 3 years later we are still in the bottom half of the ladder. Lo and behold, what does St Kilda do, they give Ratts a 2 year extension. Tell me how that does not make us a laughingstock?
As I said, the board need to be held accountable for this debacle and be immediately removed from their position. All of them!!!

Re: St Kilda will forever be the Laughingstock of the AFL
We are worse than cooked. We have repeated the same mistake we made with Richo.
The board needs to be held accountable for this and resign.
Satan does a s*** job but gets promoted from COO to CEO.
Ratts does a s*** job but gets a 2 year extension.
Is it jobs for the boys or is it just St Kilda doing a St Kilda?
I actually think it's both.
The only chance we have of ever winning a premiership in our lifetime is to start a rebuild from scratch. Any player over 27 that has value trade them out. Any player over 27 that does not have value delist.
Use all picks at the draft. No trading for players and no FA's. We need to be aiming at challenging for a flag when King is 27. In other words, build a flag winning team around King.

Laughing Stock - Not at all - you have to be relevant for anyone to worry about laughing

Re: St Kilda will forever be the Laughingstock of the AFL
I think it's the list quality that's the biggest issue, not the coaching group.
The Saints are under review, will it make any difference to the underachievers ?

Re: St Kilda will forever be the Laughingstock of the AFL
Unfortunately the brains trust at St Kilda will not admit that we need a full rebuild any time soon. As a result we will continue to be a mid table team for a few years and by the time we crash to the bottom and rebuild and start challenging, King will be retired.bangaulegend wrote: ↑Sat 09 Jul 2022 11:21pm As much as Enrie should go back to Essendon & actually support his own team & most of his posts are just crap for once (& I hate to admit it) he is actually close to being almost ,nearly ,somehow right![]()

Re: St Kilda will forever be the Laughingstock of the AFL
Just like that post on Bigfooty, "Saints are in no man's land".
And to make matters worse, we have given Ratts a 2 year extension.
It truly is laughable.....

Re: St Kilda will forever be the Laughingstock of the AFL
Yes we are poorly ran and coached at the moment. But we are perennial underdogs (given funding, prestidge ect..). As fans we should take pride in knowing we support a team no matter what and that one day when we eventually win a flag will be the greatest day of our lives.

Re: St Kilda will forever be the Laughingstock of the AFL
There is a negative correlation between high draft picks and delayed success. There is not one example in the history of the AFL of a side clearing house for drafts picks and the rebuild working. The great sides (hawthorn, Richmond, Geelong ect..) had a small amount of high draft picks (1-5) then built through recruiting other club players or got lucky with father sons. If we clear house where done as a football club and potentially get put in the relocation conversation with north.SunnyErnie wrote: ↑Sat 09 Jul 2022 11:19pmWe are worse than cooked.
