Re: Saints V GWS Votes

5. Riewoldt - just super leadership, chasing, tackling, goal kicking. We really don't know what we've got until he retires. 4. Hickey - I loved Big Mac, even put his number on my son's jumper but todays game could be the beginning of 'Ben who?' 3. Armo - I was (I think) the only one who gave him vot...

Re: Pick 13 Are we certain to get it?

Can someone explain to me why the best we can do is pick #13? Surely a no.1. draft pick who has consistently performed at the top and been in the top performers of his team is worthy of a top 10 pick, possibly even pick # 5. I read the AFLPA info and it says the pick no is up to the discretion of th...

Re: Article: St Kilda Supporters Reaction to Brendon Goddard

I have no problems with Goddard leaving, no problems with the Saints for not offering him 4 years and no problems with the AFL for introducing the system that allows him to move to one of our rivals. The way I see it, Brendon knew that he could set himself up with a lot more money by moving to a ri...
