Re: WHAT THE FRAESER GEHRIG HAVE WE DONE?

Can’t knock the kids selected as I don’t know enough about them, but we are obviously very confident in landing a big fish midfielder (or two) at the end of 2025.

Re: (NO) Surprise! We pick 2 DEF

Remember when we drafted Nasiah and folks on here said “why did we draft another half back”?

Re: 2025 Fixture

Good things - First three games are all very winnable. Should be 1-2 at the very worst, could easily be 3-0. - Richmond twice should help our percentage. - No games in Queensland, Tasmania or at the SCG. - Collingwood away is at Marvel. - Home game at the G on a Friday night vs Carlton - Only travel...

What about North Melbourne. What a bunch of AFL whores who sell their souls. How must their players feel playing home games in Tassie and now WA. What a heartless club.

The 2025 AFL Season fixture is due to be released next week. What do we want to see? Our 2024 draw was simply bizarre. The first half was ridiculous, for both the club and fans.

Re: Jack Carroll

His stats aren't particularly accurate as he was a sub in 9 of his 15 matches.

He averaged just over 15 touches a game in his six full games.

Re: I Was Actually There : NickyWinmar’s Stand Against Racism

I was there with my Dad. I was 9. I was petrified.

Never saw Nicky lift his jumper, but I did have his number on my back that day.

It was my only ever visit to Victoria Park, so I didn’t really grasp the magnitude of the win until years later.

Re: Brad Crouch?!

We did a similar thing with Jarryd Allen in 2010. His body was done, I think it was a hip or back injury, but he had a multi year contract. We delisted him at the end of 2009, then rookied him in 2010 so he could see out his contract rather than the club paying him out early. The only difference bei...

Re: Robbo: No-man’s land Saints can’t afford to fluff picks 7 and 8 again

Complete garbage. No club would've picked Higgins, Allen, Balta or De Koning at 7 or 8, or 12 or 13 for that matter. Naughton is the obvious one that got away, but with Josh Bruce and McCartin on the list at the time, and an eye on either of the King brothers in the next draft, Naughton was surplus ...

Re: Brad Crouch?!

If I were the AFL I'd not grant us any leniency. As he was a free agent the integrity of that should be mission critical. So with that said, I think the AFL will let us exempt him from a list spot but not the salary cap. Not necessarily a bad thing, we're only just achieving the minimum cap current...

I can guarantee you he will not play at AFL level again.

I imagine the club is still negotiating his exit. If it's too costly, the LTI option is available.

Re: Membery or Hayes or both gone ?

Given our list vacancies outweigh our draft hand, we must be looking at multiple delisted free agents.
