"4. Hannebery could be key to Saints' finals push
It's never easy losing one of your gun players in the middle of a finals push, but the return of Dan Hannebery to the Saints' line-up may help alleviate the Jade Gresham-sized hole left in the side. In the wake of Gresham's season coming to a premature end earlier this week due to a meniscus tear, Hannebery's comeback couldn't have been be more timely heading into a must-win game against Hawthorn. Despite barely featuring in a St Kilda jersey and not playing at senior level since round 23 last year, the former Swan fitted in seamlessly in the Saints' engine room, putting together an eye-catching display in their 12-point win over the Hawks. While he's still far from match-fit, all of the qualities that made Hannebery a three-time All-Australian were still in his kit bag as he racked up 27 disposals to go with a clever first-quarter goal. With more game time under his belt, he can only get better from here and the Saints can only benefit as they face a tough road to the finish". - Nick D'Urbano
At least Nick appreciates Gresh's value to the side.

Fair suck of the sauce bottle there mate.
Ernie was a few sheep short in the top paddock and is best forgotten.
