Mini I can cope with but I really hope Ross persists with Stanley and Heyne - I hate it when new players come for 1 week then disappear. Very little to be learnt from 1 game - it'd be pretty much a blurr with the adrenalin pumping. Give these guys a few weeks to get a proper feel for it.
I've never seen a bad St.Kilda player - that's just how they are.

I see that mini will be competing with Nick Heyne & Tom Lynch for that HFF spot in the not too distant future. May the best man win !!Spinner wrote:McQualter will be out this week.
Is going nowhere fast as a HFF right now.
NEW scarf signature (hopefully with correct spelling) will be here as soon as it arrives !!

Are Gilbo and Armo in?
Lance or James??
There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say, "Enough is enough." For me, that time is now. I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in <redacted>. Over the past three years, I have been subjected to a <redacted>investigation followed by <redacted> witch hunt. The toll this has taken on my family, and my work for <redacted>and on me leads me to where I am today – finished with this nonsense. (Oops just got a spontaneous errection <unredacted>)

Question for the masses and specifically for BigMart as well:
What do people think the right balance of kids is in a side expected to consistently be able to compete and win? Regardless of other impact like gameplans, or of the necessary outs to get those kids into the side.
Right now, we're looking to Armitage (26 games), Geary (33 games), Eddy (24 games), Steven (3 games), Heyne (2 games), Stanley (1 game), McEvoy (16 games) to be able to provide AFL grade talent at some stage in our future. One can probably add Lynch to that list. The oldest of the group is Essy at 22, and both Armo and Geary will turn 22 this year.
Consistency tends not to be present in the 18-22, < 50 game players... but the only way they get those games is to play those games. In the case of Armitage, McEvoy, Geary and Eddy, they seem to be at the "tweener" stage of being ready.. but inconsistent.
Form or forcing, what would people here do? For mine, other than the glaring absence of a certain superstar CHF, the balance isn't bad - selecting McEvoy on form as well as necessity, and a couple of developers gives some room for kids to have bad days, but if you get up to 5, then it becomes tougher to carry them and expect to win.

There was a great player for the saints i used to watch from the animal enclosure named stephen theodore he was a left footer and a tough nut played i think in wing or forward pocket sometimes on the ball loved the wet at moorabbin (it was allways wet down there )any relation.Stephen Theodore wrote:I am sure he will to.
Maybe Heyne out, and that would be it.
Wouldnt be surprised if there were no changes (barring injury of course)
