Whoa - talk about a bit early!
There's plenty of talent still there. He would have been around til the end.
Still, welcome to the Saints. Hopefully you can make a fist of it here, Zac.

We've overlooked DeBoer, Varcoe, Gaertner, Stanton and Pearce - interesting.
The latter three are still available...fingers crossed.

Gee you're harsh Batnoe.. he got left on Rocca when he was in his first year & weighed about 70kgs!Batnoe wrote:All i know is that he was thrown in the deep end and couldnt handle it... i dont know how he has progressed since?
Played on Rocca where he got 6 goals in a first half, yet kept him on him
He's 90 odd kg now & will be very solid back up if any of key defenders get hurt.
