Wonder why they took so long, Markworth has been out for months.


Lance or James??

There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say, "Enough is enough." For me, that time is now. I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in <redacted>. Over the past three years, I have been subjected to a <redacted>investigation followed by <redacted> witch hunt. The toll this has taken on my family, and my work for <redacted>and on me leads me to where I am today – finished with this nonsense. (Oops just got a spontaneous errection <unredacted>)

i suppose it is also because of Gilbos injury...

Does "drop his load" mean he will be happy or sad? the front load or the back load?

Wouldnt be sure Ferg was in. I think he has to be upgraded to be named in the 25.

Surely he will play, otherwise why upgrade. A bit surprised but really excited. Was really unlucky to get injured early in the year cos thought he would get a go when gwilt , Stanley , fisher n dempster were all injured

Aren't you part of his fan club?

I thought you were huge wraps on him?

No point in upgrading him if he isn't going to play. Waste of money otherwise.

Good move. Tall athletic and am hoping he is a player for the future. Won't be able to take on the monsters at this stag
e but seems strong overhead, quick and agile. Must be tested at this level. Next in line r dunell and current

Well done Fergs. Hope he plays a blinder- he didn't star in the NAB but he did enough to keep the faith in him. I wish Dank could have come in at the start of the year he can do 12 kgs of muscle in 2 weeks. That would fix a major backline hole.

Strange upgrade... Not the best performed rookie... But a different position player.

Good luck to him, can play a bit.

For those who haven't seen much of him.... He is a tall in the mould of Roberton, Gilbert.... Shares almost exact size as those two

.Ferguson to debut
By Luke,Holmesby
JACKSON Ferguson knew something was up when his usual Thursday routine was slightly changed.

Normally by that stage in the week, the St Kilda squad is divided into those who are in the mix for the senior team and those who are set to play with VFL team Sandringham.

Ferguson noticed that he was around some different faces to the usual.


“I was training with the main team, lining up with Jarryn Geary and James Gwilt. Next thing I know I was in the defenders line meeting. Normally it’s only the guys who are playing who go into that,” Ferguson told saints.com.au.

“I got called into (football manager) Greg Hutchison’s office and he told me I was elevated on to the senior list. I thought “Gee, that’s out of the blue.”

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
By this point, the 20-year-old had a fair idea that he was well and truly in the mix for senior selection. But it wasn’t until he took a call later in the day from a man who has been his mentor since his arrival at the Saints in 2011 that he knew his football dream had come true.

“On Thursday night Jason Blake gave me a call and told me I was playing this week. He gave me some words of wisdom. It was pretty exciting news and I couldn’t believe it to be honest,” Ferguson said.

On Sunday Ferguson will become the 1560th player to represent St Kilda at senior level and the sixth debutant this year when he runs out against North Melbourne.

Onya Blakey. I bet he gave solid advice. If anyone got the best out of themselves, it's JB.

Well it's certainly been a long time coming.

After names such as Ted Widmer,  Josh Duncan, Kane Murphy, Khan Haretuku and Blake McGrath being signed, but ultimately coming up short, we have finally got a NSW Scholarship boy to senior selection. 

Well done Jackson; your hard work has paid off.  :)
