There has been no club announcement that they have pre-selected Duncan.Mr Magic wrote:Are we taking Duncan?

So it is a safe bet he WONT be a St Kilda rookie.
I can not understand why Tommy Walsh is not on the permission to training list.
He still has to have his name called on the 15th to become a St Kilda rookie.
All the club has done so far is announce they will pre-select him.
Brisbane is taking Nial McKeever but he IS on the training list.

Im still surprised that we dont seem to be going after a solid bodied mid-size forward. They must be thinking Welsh or Heyne are going to be right for 2010, or perhaps expect a position re-shuffle.

In hope that we are looking at Serhat Temel, what more does a kid have to do than kick goals in finals as a junior? He has size, take contected marks and is a pretty good kick.
ST KILDA
Pre-season selections: Nil
Rookie selections: 5 (20, 36, 49, 60, 69)
Locked in: Tommy Walsh - international
Needs: The Saints could focus on some mid-sized forwards, while further midfield depth also wouldn't hurt
In their sights: St Kilda has already secured young Irishman Walsh, a 195cm key forward regarded as one of the best recent Irish prospects. This leaves four live picks in the rookie draft, with Luke Thompson, Daniel Scott-Collings, Johnny Raynor, Tom Hill and Sean Tighe some of the youngsters linked with the club.

Training with St Kilda
Ouch that's tough.
I bet their bodies wish they had joined the rest of South Australia and taken it easy with Port Adelaide.
