Appreciate the report, but I think we might be expecting a bit much if we think he is going to a better player than Goddard next year… One is a 16 gamer with potential but who is still on the fringe of the senior side, the other is 200 game dual AA, in the top ten paid players in the comp.
Goddard isn't in the top 30 players in the comp, though.

No doubt we as fans over hype players willy nilly... but Sippos is legit.

Most improved player this year for sure.

Depends which Goddard you are talking about. Are you referring to Goddard of 2009/10 or Goddard 2011/12? :D

Either of those Goddard periods are comfortably better than Siposs (at the moment)
Arryn has played what… 2 games across half back so far? Including one good one against GWS…
We get pretty hysterical on here at times about how good we think our players are…
If he gets anywhere near the level of Goddard that will be an amazing result, fingers crossed, but at this stage he's still a kid with potential.

No didn't see Seb out there gershwin.

For whomever asked, Staley was playing down back againtst Kosi, Beau etc and surprised me - big kid and seemed to move pretty well, as did Webster. Shenton was the other one that surprised me - had him basically written off, but the dash out of the back line he showed a few times later in the game was encouraging. Seems quicker than I thought.

Thanks for the great reports folks. Very pleased to read positives on Maister-Wilkes and Curren, 2 of my favourite players.

Curren could well be upgraded this year.

Yea pretty excited about Shenton and Curren, both were impressive. I expected Curren, but not Shenton, he should get some games!
I thought Webster was pretty good too

Pretty happy :)

Ball movement was good, and skills were pretty good.

I would love to see lace out passes into the forward line, they wouldn't know what had hit em.

A crowd of around 1,500 is crap.

Had it been at Moorabbin same time/day you'd easily double that figure.

Probably would have been close to 90,000 if it was at Moorabbin.

The real crap is the estimate. My estimate would have that figure at around 3,000+. The crowd was 2 deep all the way around the Peninsula Link side and would have been 6-8 deep on the bowling club side from the far end goals right around to the clubrooms !!


NEW scarf signature (hopefully with correct spelling) will be here as soon as it arrives !!

Club statement is around 1,500- But it was a very good number- and many more than Egales or crows or blues and Pies who all held theirs mid week and some behind closed doors
I asked TDL how did it compare to Sydney and he said the training before GF there would have been that many but other than that never.

they are planning big for Family day
“Let’s just hope the weather is just as good for Family Day by the bay next month!”

Around 4,000 fans are expected to attend ‘Family Day by the bay’ on the Frankston Foreshore on March 10.

http://www.saints.com.au/news/2013-02-0 ... ld-and-new
A number of the older Saints sat out the game.
When asked why Nick Riewoldt, Lenny Hayes, Sean Dempster and Adam Schneider
didn’t play Watters commented; “They are just old!”.
Watters said it was normal to modify the campaigns of the older players. One promising
young Saint who sat out the game was Sebastian Ross who suffered a cold 48 hours
before the game.

Noted a couple of ex saints hanging around in the crowd - using their connections and a signed saints football for one's toddler as decoy for their real jobs-

spying for the opposition...

Based on what i saw last year if you re excited about shenton then we re in more trouble than i thought.
He must have improved thru the roof.

He actually started looking good towards the end of the year- moved back and seemed to suit him.
