Anyone who saw Webby on Schneiderman will know he isn't that smart...

Probably not required, a lot of people agree with what he/she wrote. I just thought it would be interesting to bump my post below. I copped a lot of flak over it but what does everyone think now. Not to far off the mark hey?? To a certain extent, I agree with Wallet. If you include 2012 it will be 8...

It is not harsh to drop Jones, can not kick or handball... We've moved past him now, its about the next gen.

Roo- No
Hayes- No
Joey- No
Ray - no
Jones- maybe but harsh
Dempster- no
Gwilt- probably

The ease of their first three goals set a scary precedent for the day. Was very unhappy with some senior player's efforts in the first fifteen mins. Kids make mistakes and learn, veterans make mistakes because they're deficient.

thing is, he isn't 'explosive' he takes a fair while to get up to full speed which is bloody quick.

I'm hoping this game gives him some confidence.

It was a text to a mate who told me we would win, thought we were very unlikely. Would prefer I wasn't so right... Don't post much on here because of the wankfest slanging match it has become. I write this to a mate Friday. "I reckon Adelaide will smack us, they've played patches of amazing foo...

I write this to a mate Friday.

"I reckon Adelaide will smack us, they've played patches of amazing football mixed with terrible stuff, we are traveling back from a brutal game in Perth. We are young, has the hallmarks of a flogging."

Word.

Listed as injured by the club.

But as usual p66 telks us we are all wrong and only he really knows the inner truth for all players because he thinks hes their mate and wants to up himself on here about it. Get a dog dude.

Two words. Oxygen Thief.

USADA defo used positive tests as evidence...

Yes, the Essendon case is completely different. What they did is clearly worse. Positive tests are irrelavant. ASADA emphasise this all the time. Armstrong was not busted due to positive tests.

Not every player works out... There is no reason you cant trade out later if theyre both guns but dont fit. Logically, when are we going to be up and about? Answer: 4/5 seasons. That is why the trading for Longer to partner Hickey is a great call. Logically, Big Mac was no use to us. Where do both p...

He absolutely is on everyone's draft board. Adelaide and Essendon will be keen to get him as he is first round talent they haven't got picks for but I don't think he will last that long. Emma Quayle reckons he is on every clubs draft list. He'll go to someone else if we don't go early. We need mids ...

Every club interviews potential draftees. Not a shock.

Yeah none of it really shocked me. If older players are shitty, they need to realises they didn't achieve the main aim of their role and the club needs to focus on winning premierships (not one) in the future. Was interesting to speak to a player and get decent and seemingly honest responses. Had a ...

Had a chat to a Saints player yesterday, he said he loved Watters and so does every player under 25. He embraces them and their development. A few of the older lads have their noses out of joint because they were always the focus under Ross. He said teh young players are all very very close and all ...

I'd love to see Curren in #7 in 2015.

Turn on sarcasm detector. fingers: "He has to be. He played for us. That is surely enough of a credential." I'm sorry to have to agree to disagree with you on your criteria for a (successful) senior coach. Would that criteria be applied to Michael Voss at Brisbane? Tony Shaw at Collingwood...

Compo for Goddard used in trade for Hickey... "The Saints will receive Hickey and picks No.26 and 47. The Suns will get pick No.13 as well as 37 and 57. Hickey, 21, has been recruited to partner No.1 ruckman Ben McEvoy." Just hope the Saints can do as well and use th free agency to our adv...

Probably rightly as well, he hasnt played a game yet and is 21 (?). Never going to be mentioned externally. I note that Daniel Markworth never gets a mention when people talk about our crop of youngsters. I suppose, out of sight-out of mind. If I remember correctly he was very highly regarded before...

Maybe Watters banned Fisher and Armo from the USA so they couldnt get Dusty into trouble?

Know a bloke who works in recruiting at another club, reckons Kelly is the pick of the draft. Rates Scharenburg above Aish but reckons they top 4-5 are all pretty close. Agree Gringo had a beer with someone close to club apparently they want Josh Kelly at this stage hope he is wrong . Can't believe ...

Scharenberg and Newnes will most defo be starters.

You realise what he did at Aberdeen yeah? And he took over United when they were 21st... He built the dynasty. Freak. Surely you dont think SAF's success is due to cash flow? Did he have advantages over bottom feeders, absolutely. But he spent as much as the others at the top and reigned supreme. 9c...

You were still referring to the AFL, of which we are a part. St Kilda need to be in the business of winning, take every .1% of an advantage you can. Who says I haven't? We are different and I would hate to lose that difference all in the pursuit of a possible 0.1% increase in performance. It blows m...

It blows my mind people can say this after we were 14 points away from going back to back and came away with zero.
