I think he averages more touches per minute played than anyone on our list.

Problem is he only plays 60% every week,

Hope like hell he has the pre-season of his life and we can get his game time up to at least 75%

That's when he goes to the next level we are looking for.

Arie doesn’t have the tank or speed for a wing. He’s playing good footy but plays the role of Battle or Wilkie, two of our better and more durable players. Unless he replaces Sharman, in that forward/ back hybrid (nothing) role I don’t see it. I would love to see him get a run and bang a couple of ...

Anyone who uses the term "woke" in this context is a f****** moron. Putting it lightly

Laura Kane is starting to piss me off but there is nothing woke at all about this. Anyone who insists as much needs an education.

Makes it all the sweeter when they inevitably fail to live up to the hype.

Our most important forward going forward is Isaac Keeler If he is NOT a bust and becomes an AFL player It gives us King 202cm - Power Forward Caminiti 196cm - Power Forward Keeler 198cm - Forward/Ruck Owens/Phillipou 190cm - Hybrid/Mid Higgins 178cm - Small Forward Collard 180cm - Small Forward Hot...

Before yesterday he had never kicked more than 3 in a game.

He's a good little player but he's not the best thing since sliced bread.

What it highlights for me is the need for speed come finals time.

And a really good person and assistant coach too I think

It only doesn't go away because people start threads like this

Maybe some players are very comfortable and very happy not coming out publicly .... happy for their friends and family to know but not whole frigging world and all the hoopla and the pressure to be a gay icon that would come with it Absolutey spot on. No idea why people think its their right to kno...

I actually cannot think of any St Kilda player who makes these decisions look easy, besides NWM & Sincs from half back, so I am a little baffled why these two are singled out. Butler gets criticised for not kicking enough goals but chases and tackles like it's 2nd nature. Higgins presents and k...

haha does anyone actually believe this?

Ross has said we are going to the draft again this year. If we were looking at Butters then that would be impossible.

Don't you mean midfield dysfunction?

Still ranked in the top 10 players at the club. 23 coaches votes this year. 8th (ish) for contested marks by ruckmen 7th most hitouts in the comp this year 2nd in tackles by ruckmen 2nd in disposals by ruckmen 2nd in contested possessions by ruckmen 2nd in clearances by ruckmen 1st in free kicks fo...

Form has dropped off a little but he's still doing his job

Quite happy with how he's going overall.

I know it’s only early days, but Collingwood will be tough to beat and head-to-head on the MCG, it’s hard to see us being able to match it with their midfield. We’re a Diacos and DeGoey short. I do agree but we have a couple of things going for us. 1. Steele will play and hopefully be in prime form...

Let's dare to dream but be aware of a few things before we get cocky. 1. Teams will start to work out better ways to play us as the year goes on 2. Our form will fluctuate, we're only 1 Qtr the way through the season Our game plan is well and truly on point but do we miss 1 or 2 elite players to wi...

Would rather we keep hitting the draft HARD than spending money on guys from other clubs.

Unless they are a free agent and a really, really good one then no.

As much as we wish he were getting cheapies and not doing damage it's not the case.

The kid is a gun. An absolute weapon that is only going to get better and better.

Ross said we would do something about him for our next encounter, will be interesting what tactics we employ to curb his influence.

When Jimmy Webster is fit he plays! Unfortunately Paton can’t be trusted with ball in hand. It’s a shame Connelly hasn’t come on as he’s got speed and is dual sided. What do you think the coaches want to see Leo work on? Is it just his production? I see they are giving him a run in the middle latel...

Obviously needs surgery but that'll put him out for the season , A week off would help but as the cupboard is bare he unfortunately has to play with pain . I'm not saying it isn't sore but don't agree with this. If it structurally sound like we're told it is then what's the surgery for? It probably...

66% Ground time against the Dons - discuss. A common theme with him this year. Similar game time to what Dunstan under Richo and Ratts used to get and Luke Ball under Lyon. I guess my only concern would be if it's for the same reason i.e. unable to spread on defense Hopefully not as he appears to b...

Why did we play Howard and Cordy as the forwards in the 1st team?

Clearly, Sharman and the new guy looked significantly better up there.

really hope our round one plans don't revolve around Howard and Cordy as our forwards.
