Unpopular opinion

We won’t win a GF while Callum Wilkie is in the side. - Shocking defender 1 on 1 - does everything to avoid them - Always plays the loose but isn’t an intercept and rebound player, allowing decent transition. Instead tends to sag back, slide across and spoil sideways at best meaning we get trapped d...

Re: Round 17 - comedy festival nominations

I deadset thought I was reading a post on Big footy when reading Jake Niall's article... I know it was an opinion piece but fair dinkum the fact that somebody actually gets paid to pump out that utter jibberish that had no idea where it was going or why.. It wasn't that he thought the demons were ah...

Re: Changes for next week

I didn't see much of the game, it did appear Hickey got us out of trouble down the line a few times early. While not taking grands and getting stats. the ability to get the ball to the ground at worst when there's a rushed kick forward can't go underestimated. If injured then yeah, rest him, but if ...

Re: Bruce v Stanley

I was an interested observer in the outer on Saturday night and to be honest have held the belief that Bruce will end up going to CHB/FB. I think 4 of his goals were from inside 15, 3 of then on pretty much the goal line, a few grabs from almost mis-kicks deep that no Hawthorn/Freo/PA/Syd etc. 'tea...

Re: Draftees 2014

I don't mind the selection of Lonie. Bit of class with the left foot in the highlights. Can only hope for him and billings doing some damage across half forward and up the field together. I havent seen any of our draftees play, however from the Highlights, McCartin doesn't seem to get great separati...

Re: Josh Bruce

Great to have that published.. Gives saints a big upper hand on final day of trading.. However, GWS may have enough earlier picks to find 41 irrelevant? I.e would they use pick 41? Not sure what they're selections are?

Re: Delaney

I think that we were prepared to let Dal go to Nth via free agency, will play in our favour when dealing with Delany. A guess would be that was part of te conversation. Or you would at least hope so!

Re: Agree or disagree on McEvoy trade

Mac is a champion bloke and I wish him all the best and every success at the hawks. I agree with the trade though. Mac often struggled for quality hit outs, he was good around the ground but I think by the time we challenge again te development of Hickey and possibly others we should be fine with ou...

Re: stanley

Would suggest a bloke like Max Hudgton could isolate 5 video snippets and teach him a bucket load. Hudghton woyuld have had five kicked on him tonight. No chop out, at the end. Was always going to happen. Cloke snagged a couple from simple positioning errors, needs to adapt to a position where clok...

Re: stanley

He doesn't have the nouse of a backman. Defends on the wrong side of opponent and often allows opponent to access the 'dangerous space' his positioning doesn't demand support from fisher and Roberton who can chop off line ball while he can run and jump in the space. Will hopefully learn a lot from v...

Re: So what did we think of Gwilt's game?

wasn't he on Vickery most of the night? Vickery had what, 1 kick. Did his job first, perhaps a move should have been made onto Riewoldt when Blake rucked, felt for simpkin. Should have never been or Riewoldt. Gwilt was rusty with touch though and needs to force himself to become designated kicker, r...

A few things have had me thinking about St.Kilda for the remainder of this year and into next year. I think they're pretty valid discussion points and want some opinions!
