Re: Rumour Thread
Did you just make this rumour up or is there something behind it?Bardon Saint wrote: Broughton rumour - there's a new one. A possession accumulating half back that gets killed under Rossy for playing a tight tag. Not his style - probably hating his footy? Relatively young and can play mid.
Because I can't see him wanting to move to Victoria as he is a local WA lad....his father is from NZ though

I heard that we are talking to Jack Riewoldt and will be making a big play for him during trade week.

Re: Rumour Thread
Harsh on Caddy. I've only seen him play 3 or 4 times this year, and he's been outstanding. According to the BF G Coast board, he is predicted to be top 5 in their B & F.Bardon Saint wrote:
Am not sure sure about Caddy. He's promised a lot but delivered little. Granted he's only just starting his career but I feel that some think he's a lot better then his actually is. His potential, well that's speculative but he hasn't started his career like some of the gun midfielders in the competition.
His first season he only played one game I think, with groin surgery and a stress fracture in his foot.
Fine if you don't rate him, but at least check some background first, maybe cut him some slack...

Re: Rumour Thread
With BJ looking gone lets hope we can pick up someone like Caddy... Plus a ruckman like Hickey and a full back like Cam Delaney... As Scotty Watters suggested our salary cap position has improved...
SAINTS another day older another day closer to the Holy Grail!

We seem to think that all the great players dominated the comp from game one…Bardon Saint wrote:Am not sure sure about Caddy… He hasn't started his career like some of the gun midfielders in the competition
Caddy is tracking pretty well for a 19 year old in an ordinary side.

Here are a couple of other players in their first 20-odd matches

G. Ablett Jnr
11 disposals/ave
2.8 tackles

Re: Rumour Thread
If we don't match an offer from an opposition club he can walk. There's no way we'd get anything from a trade

I can't see why the paper tuggers would do that swap though to get BJ..., if he was to end up there it'd be more likely to happen under free agency... surely... their recruiters aren't still that dumb... surely???
It's Dave, man. Will you open up? I got the stuff with me! -------Who?

Re: Rumour Thread
I heard a rumour saying that the heart surgery to Lenny Hayes wasn't to do with a leaky valve at all...its all part of a plan to take the stem cells from his heart (scientific reasoning may be dubious) and grow 37 exact replicas (38 players on the list?). Every player at St. Kilda will be undergoing corrective heart surgery sometime this pre-season and we will win the flag in 2013 and each of the 10 years following. Not confirmed but my sauce is better than ketchup!
oh when the saints

Re: Rumour Thread
Just to clarify... the only way we can trade BJ is if we match the best offer he receives from another club as a restricted free agent & then decide that we'd rather trade him that keep him.
It then become a straight trade as per the past.
Personally I'd much rather see BJ in yellow & black than red & black... their pick 9 would do nicely!
