All, one things I enjoy most about afl and st kilda is planning our list lol even though I have no influence I constantly think about it and was hoping to hear your thoughts. Pelchen has set a target of winning the big one so obviously to do that we need a team capable. Below is my view of who could be a part of this team, obviously a lot can change, a lot can go right and a lot can go wrong. Below is based on what I have seen, not heard eg everyone has said that markworth looks great in the vfl but he has not yet had a chance to show it in the afl. So we have a team below and its based on the assumption that the players who have shown some continue to do so and in 4 years time hayes etc have retired. So age of no more that 32.
Geary zzzz Gwilt
Gilbert Roberton Wright
Webster Dunstan Newnes
Templeton YYYY Curren
Savage WWWW Lee
Hickey Armitage Steven
Ross VVVV UUUU TTTT
Now obviously we have some potentially great players on our list already eg billings weller acres etc. I am just saying that on the above I have not seen enough yet... maybe you have? Based on my list above and putting aside the fact that we need improvement from every one above we need to find at least 6 more players...all of a sudden maybe we aint that far away e.g. look at the progress jack steven made in 2 years... I say again I would love to hear your thoughts.

Re: 2018
Four seasons I reckon there are a lot to go out and come in yet.
Billings must be in there. I saw him for the first time last week against Frankston and was very impressed.
Gwilty will be 31 by then so not sure if he'll still be around. We also probably need to offload someone with trade value at the end of the year, but who? Gilbert? Armo?
I haven't seen much of them, but I hope Acres and Bruce develop into something good.
And what about Saunders?! Above Newnes and Ross IMO.

Lenny will be playing
I am still hurting from 71;
my gut churns thinking of 97;
2009 was agony,
2010a was a pleasure to watch only to be devastated by 2010 b.
It hurts barracking for the Saints

A delicious post that everyone can build upon!
What I liked about Saturday's Sandringham practice match was that players like Bruce, Longer and Markworth just look like genuine AFL talent.
Bruce would have to be his size and how vocal he was at the quarter time breaks. Markworth his speed and reading the game and Longer just stood out. Longer and Bruce I've seen one game live from what I can remember, but it was the first impression I got.
Those three to me were just a cut above most that we have had in the reserves for a while.
