ON THE BLOCK: We don’t like to bag players for the sake of it here at the Barometer, but surely Beau Maister’s time is up. He had eight disposals at 50 per cent efficiency yesterday and ended up playing in defence. Jimmy Webster (13 disposals at 38 per cent efficiency) had a horror day and Shane Savage was a bit better but still far from the player the Saints hoped for when they recruited him as part of the Ben McEvoy deal.

ON THE CUSP: The Saints’ VFL side played a draw against Box Hill with Terry Milera kicking the goal to tie the scores. He also had 27 disposals and is the frame for his first senior hit-out of the year. Jack Billings and Tom Lee were given another week to prove their form and both did just that, Billings collecting 29 disposals and Lee kicking 3.5 from 14 disposals. Adam Schneider got through the game and No.19 draft pick Blake Acres showed a bit with 18 disposals after being promoted from the development side. Alan Richardson says Sam Fisher might make his return in the VFL next week.

AL PATON’S FORECAST: Reality hit with a thud in the form of an 86-point hammering from the Crows. The Saints got their hands on the ball in close (drawing level on contested possessions and clearances) but were cut to ribbons by Adelaide’s runners. The most disappointing aspect for Richardson would be how the likes of David Mackay and Brodie Smith were able to waltz through the middle of Etihad Stadium unchallenged. Richo will have to get his troops to regroup for the first time before another big challenge against Essendon on Saturday night. Then it’s a flight over the ditch to face Brisbane in Wellington on Anzac Day.

I thought Ross may of got a mention, 24 disposals and 3 goals. Named as one of the best. With his previous weeks efforts he cant be far off playing in the seniors. Anyone able to shed more light on how he's going?
