Why did you start another thread when you comment is the same as others in thread re same topic?

Firstly I didnt think there was a law against it and secondly this is fact. Also on the other thread I actually said it wasnt confirmed and could be just scuttlebutt. I could hardly be accused of starting too many threads. matter of fact people have a go at me for not starting threads and for not saying something.

I was actaully hoping he would step up next year - he now looks like a player physically - there are a handful of others on the list that I think will probably never play again for the saints - Winmar at least had a chance to make the 22 if he had a big pre season ..

Having said that I think 2 (at least ) needed to go for a KPP mature back and I think Roberton will come in

Nick was not my first choice for that

Fair enough - long as you say that to all the other posters who do the same - plus those who start inane threads with meaningless headings, while telling others to have proper topics - and attention seekers - and folks who slam players.

Not really surprised on Winmar, still don't like losing players who they've spent time and money developing.
Wonder whether Staley might be tipped out on Thursday as well .....

I can honestly say I have never once said why start another thread when there is one already. I couldnt give a stuff if there is 100 threads on the same topic.

Who cares. Really.

If people want this form to work properly then they should write/behave through their actions and lead by example.

Just look at the way I carry on sometimes. Just PM me for any advice. Happy to help out.

Cheers

When we first drafted him i was as happy as a tornado in a trailer park.
Just the thought of being able to yell out WINMAAAAAAR!!!! again made me feel like i was a young man once more.
Sadly young Nicholas (dont call me Nicky) Winmar never reached the lofty heights of the great Cuz :(
I wish the young lad all the best.

I thought he had some ability and would play more games but I think he lacked the application. Maybe a good couple of seasons in the WAFL will see him getting picked up by WCE

Have no idea what that even slightly means but that is quite consistant with you. Can you explain? I havent even said anything on this thread apart from Nick is delisted and I have never said dont start a another thread when there is already one. Both are true so what your issue?

do we have this confirmed anywhere?
frankly would be happy to move Winmar and Shenton on who have had their chances and aren't up to it.
need space for Roberton and Cockie.

Shenton's had barely a year on the list! How is that seen as enough of a chance to prove himself?

I know nothing about Cockie - why do you think he deserves a place on the list?

seen enough of Shenton in the VFL to know (imo) he won't make it because; stands outside the play, seeks easy possessions, zero influence, and doesn't create which a player his size and speed should do. Sandy didn't really know what to do with him. got dropped at one point I think.

I think a full season is plenty to show something. many players only last one season. would rather have held on to Hutchings.

Cockie is a genuine inside mid with phenomenal tackling and major grit. true grit even. seasoned bodied powerhouse. has trimmed down a bit and providing he has the engine, this guy, along with Armo, wins us the wet and miserable games. just love that style of player who scares the opposition and loves operating in fierce traffic. Lenny may have only one further year with us.
