If he only plays 20 for us,but plays in a premiership then I couldn't care less if he then retires or go's missing.bergholt wrote:Am I the only one worried that he slots straight in as the tenth oldest bloke on the list?

I CAN'T believe you played the racist card, mate.evertonfc wrote:True, but it's such a high price.

We're out of the running there now and that's disappointing.
Having said that, using Lovett of a half-back flank, instead of Raph Clarke*, is sure to boost our team considerably. I'm a big Lovett fan...just thought we could get him a little cheaper.
* - This is NOT Raph-bashing. It's just that he's not a great player and failed in the Grand Final, and they occupy the same position. And you can't play the racist card either, obviously...

St Kilda did not tag Watson in either game against Essendon and Watson got Brownlow votes in both games.ausfatcat wrote:Stanton or Watson got most of the tags anyway, Lovett didn't get many, but it's sounds good if people say he did so it looks like we got a better deal than we did.vacuous space wrote: Not everyone's a winner.

Once Lyonised, he'll be awesome.
Great to see another indigenous fella on the list, too
I've been looking at the wrong guy in these youtube highlights

if the saints don't pull of a flag in the next 2 years. would this tyears trading be a waste?
no young players coming through?
trying to buy a flag now when it may not come to fruition?
Don't reckon we drafted Lovett to play HBF though. They will want him in the midfield - most likely on a wing.groupie1 wrote:I CAN'T believe you played the racist card, mate.evertonfc wrote:True, but it's such a high price.
