From the hun's likes and dislikes
DISLIKES
Saints cull coming?
"Get the feeling St Kilda is set for significant list changes. The 2019 trade bonanza has proved a sugar hit but not a September hit, and it is time to stockpile teenage talent. Asked Max King about the club’s bright youngsters and he said: “Some of the first-year boys – Marcus Windhager, whose tagging at the moment but will develop into a really good midfielder – and Mitch Owens as well. Both just unbelievably competitive for first-year (players) and have had a very big impact, which we probably haven’t seen in a few years for first-year players.” There’s just not enough in that bracket. Bradley Hill could be traded, Mason Wood, Jack Bytel, Tom Highmore and Tom Campbell are all out of contract and Dean Kent, Paddy Ryder, Dan Hannebery, Jarryn Geary and Josiah Kyle are retiring.The Saints need to re-sign South Australian Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera before adding more young guns, alongside Owens and Windhager, in that demographic."

Re: From the hun's likes and dislikes
Would definitely give Campbell a year based on yesterday's performance.
Probably that pale looking bloke wearing big Carl's number would almost get another year on yesterday's form!

Re: From the hun's likes and dislikes
We should sign up Mason Wood, too. I would go another 2 years.
He gets knocked around here, but his good goes unnoticed unless he is kicking goals.
Does a lot of gut running and is always a switch option that is rarely used.
Great mark good size and great kick at goal. He doesn't miss many.

Re: From the hun's likes and dislikes
With Heath developing nicely and Hayes returning from injury, I can't see a reason to keep Campbell other than last resort backup.
Wood is a definite keeper.

Re: From the hun's likes and dislikes
Maybe Campbell should stay on for a year as Health looks way off the pace to me anyway. Hayes had one a half good games before injury and I'm not yet convinced he can do much in the ruck.

Re: From the hun's likes and dislikes
I’d keep Campbell and play him through the year to rest the other guys He’s here and in our system and would be cheap enough worst case scenarios with injuries he showed he can do it .
Wood keeper also
Wood keeper also

Re: From the hun's likes and dislikes
Agreed on Campbell - good enough to be on the list, no one expecting miracles but he might play here and there when needed.
Certainly a step up on Hunter

Re: From the hun's likes and dislikes
Campbell looked good on Sunday. Why wasn’t he getting a game when Ryder was injured.
Mason Wood was good value this year. I’m fine with him getting an extension.

Ratts needs a good long holiday away.

Then make list decisions.
Remember those that came through in the crunch with something special and those that never do.
