Great trade if we pull it off. We have enough ordinary big forwards, we can afford to lose one. He goes missing way too often and only kicked 18 goals all year which is pretty ordinary for a key forward. Lets not be fooled by the one great game he plays every 8 weeks where he looks like a world beat...

Come back to the real world Count Choclula. No one is offering 28 year old Armo a 5 year $600k deal. He would be a second or third round at best.

Petracca sounds like the one to me. I think we need to draft the best player regardless of whether he's a forward or mid. McCartin and Wright don't seem like sure things where Petracca does.

Also said he is a lovely kid and will be g...

Folks,

Read with interest the Lazy Peanut websites Saints season preview. Hard to disagree with a lot that is said but lets hope he's wrong. He seems like a Saints fan too, talk about a pessimist.

I think he is arguing no one is better - not necessarily he's the best. It's a good read regardless.
