Billy Longer will be done for 25.
Gubby Allan very stubborn but should get Bruce done for 41 as well.
Otherwise he will be joining us via PSD.
Possibly a late deal to go through as well, only a slight chance though!
Thanks mate will stay tuned !
SAINTS another day older another day closer to the Holy Grail!

We wanted a couple of semi experienced players and got them. Any person on here saying the club dont know what they were doing clearly doesnt know what he is talking about.
If both Bruce and longer are delisted due to not signing new contracts with their current clubs, can't we just sign them up as delisted free agents? Collingwood are doing it with Armstrong and possibly karnezis. Same circumstance as roberton being signed last year.
If you are so offended, dont read it. Log off and do something else.
People appreciate the accurate information jaxons has given.
If he had have been talking crap, he would have been given the short shrift.
he has been spot on so far, so may are thankful to him.
You seem to have an issue with appreciation
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>.

Apparently delisting and contract expiring are different things. Freo delisted Roberton as a good-will act, I can't see the Brions doing the same with highly rated youngsters. They'd be forced into one of the drafts, so it would come down to how badly they wanted to be at the Saints to ward off the other clubs.

Yep. People were quick to put the boots in to Freo for poaching Dawson from us, but very slow to appreciate their goodwill in de-listing Roberton instead of forcing him in to one of the drafts.
Hird... The unflushable one is now... just a turd...

Can only see us using it for that and thats why I dont think we minding swapping 41 for 48

Most importantly, well done to the St Kilda list management committee. Bloody outstanding work and cannot wait for Caroline Wilson to acknowledge it in a front page article!

Thanks for the feedback, happy to keep you all in the loop.
I will say a remarkable effort by the recruiting team.
Once again given up a slow one dimensional ruckman and a 30 year old midfielder and bought in 2 key backmen, 1 ruckman, and 1 midfielder and holding 3 picks under 20 at upcoming draft.
Longer and Bruce are All Australian under 18's as well so hopefully will develop into great players.
Savage and Delaney are ready to go and will play from Round 1 injury permitting.
Chris Pelchen is the best in the business.
