He's about the only tall forward with a pulse.

Re: Caminiti in line for round 1 debut
One of my favourite sayings is timing is everything..this certainly applies to young Caminiti.
Firstly for getting on the list in the first place, then doing a Stephen Bradbury & being virtually last man standing in our tall forward stocks!

Re: Caminiti in line for round 1 debut
There's one other that can still stand isn't there? I think it was only a couple of weeks ago you you were saying he was lock for round 1, what's changed your mind Mick?Saintmike65 wrote: ↑Tue 14 Mar 2023 10:17am One of my favourite sayings is timing is everything..this certainly applies to young Caminiti.

Re: Caminiti in line for round 1 debut
Based on what I saw when Sharman was on the field in the last 3 periods of the practice match against Essendon, I'm not sure that he will be named on Friday.
I've got Caminiti, Cordy and Owens as forward talls in my side against Freo, with Mason Wood to rotate in attack as well. And of course Rowan Marshall will drift forward at times as well.

Of course you would.
But labouring the point suggests you haven't convinced yourself.

Re: Caminiti in line for round 1 debut
Sharman didn't play in the 'official' 4 periods against Essendon that were shown on Fox 504, but when I played the recording later on there were 3 additional periods in some of which Sharman did in fact play, but he looked a bit 'out at sea' and certainly nowhere near as good as Caminiti.evo wrote: ↑Tue 14 Mar 2023 6:18pmSharman did not play against Essendon!!Vortex wrote: ↑Tue 14 Mar 2023 2:20pmI agree I think that's probably the most likely outcome based on current availability and praccy match formSanctorum wrote: ↑Tue 14 Mar 2023 1:41pm Based on what I saw when Sharman was on the field in the last 3 periods of the practice match against Essendon, I'm not sure that he will be named on Friday.

I let go long ago, maybe there's something in that for all of us.

Re: Caminiti in line for round 1 debut
I think there’s a time for Sharman as that Fritz type lead up option …I haven’t given up and we know he can convert something many of our other forwards battle with

Re: Caminiti in line for round 1 debut
Possibly the one who has his papers stamped given his lack of game time and the personnel currently out of the team.
Holder of unacceptable views and other thought crimes.

Re: Caminiti in line for round 1 debut
Baptism of fire coming up. Good news is that he and the pou will have had their first game. They like Sharman are going to make mistakes which they will learn from so hopefully us fans give them a break

Re: Caminiti in line for round 1 debut
Last night on Footy Classified, one of the things that Ross said was that he’s changed. He implied that he’s not exactly Cuddly Ross as has been suggested, but that he will try and develop relationships with his players. In the past he said there was more of a ‘wall’ between coach and player.
In a way, that can be a good thing in that you build trust and you show faith in someone and then they reward you with great effort.
Perhaps at some stage the player rewards the team down the track with an important win, but in another way it means that maybe you’re personal feelings might get in the way of making tough decisions on players or maybe you lose a player you haven’t given enough opportunity to, because you’ve been favouring others.
At the moment, with our injury toll, it seems Ross has no choice and it makes the selection committees job easy to pick a team. When it’s a choice between Sharman vs Caminiti or Sharman vs Hayes or Sharman vs Pou or Sharman versus a small nimble forward, that will be when we learn what they really think of Coops

Re: Caminiti in line for round 1 debut
My wrong....you're absolutely correct, it was Melbourne, so not getting any game time against Essendon suggests Sharman is unlikely to play this Sunday.

4 debutants according to RTB. Phillpou and Caminiti, plus two from other clubs, Stocker and Cordy.

Re: Caminiti in line for round 1 debut
One thing I really like about Caminiti is the was he presents himself physically
He is a specimen with no body fat!
Lean and shredded
Means he takes diet and fitness seriously and acts how a pro athlete should - let’s just hope he can play
Some who have been in the AFL for 5-6 years are not even remotely similar.
Highly paid pro athletes - with nothing better to do than train - should present like elite athletes!

What he said was in the past he’s built that wall between club and at times fans….this time he wants St Kilda fans to be part of the journey….especially in our 150th year he suggested
IF Ross Lyon has done 1 thing well he has ALWAYS been able to build strong relationships with his players - see Freo/Saints players of past years who still speak so highly of him and his previous internal “bubble” approach
The wall had nothing to do with his player relationships
“Yeah….nah””
