I don't understand the fascination with having two rucks who can't really play forward in the same side. How can Longer and Hickey possibly play together?
They can both go forward and kick goals, unlike Beau who plays like a beau.

Beau does a job Longer or Hickey could not do. You could not have Longer, Stanley and Hickey in the same side IMO but it may happen. Lee for Maister if Lee did something yesterday.

and crashing into the captain was the last straw for me....hopeless....

I don't mind Beau and he will play more games this year, but 3 poor games in a row says he needs to go find some form in the 2's.

Not a great way to recover the body after a game??

Richo would be filthy I reckon

Especially for an under fit Siposs who needs to take every opportunity to get his body fitter, stronger and leaner.... Drinking piss after a game isn't going to help that

Lee looks like a footballer, and can finish well to kick the goals. We need players that can kick goals.

Playing second ruck at present will be rounding out his skill set and lifting his workrate (which is what he needs to do).

Last year I thought he was ok, but yes he has to do more.

I suspect he will do better in the seniors than in the AFL.

Did he say they were drinking?

If they were how many?

Is drinking alcohol banned for St.Kilda players in season?

Take a straw man argument and run with it, especially with a whipping boy eh?

lol. :roll:


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>.

I dont think anyone said that he was lying. Why do you completely twist things around. They may have been having fun without drinking. I think you said you dont drink so i also take it you dont have fun.

Couldn't care less if you believe me or not, it's not exactly a big news story.

Didn't see them drinking for the record.

Also for the record, if you go out in the city you're bound to see at least a handful of players from various clubs. Majak was there last night too, boy can he cut shapes on the dance floor. I don't think it's a huge issue that they went, but when it's two players with questionable work rate and dedication it makes you wonder a little bit.

I have no reason not to beleive you. I also have no issue with them going out. I have issues with people who werent there guessing all the bad news.

So why mention it? If you're concerned then email the club with your list of players you consider to have questionable work-rate and they can decide whether to put them under house arrest or not.

Beau has been trying real hard, but it's just not working for him at the moment. The Crows next week, could be worth a Tommy/Beau swap - not a lot to lose! If Tommy plays well, the in again for the Bombers, where we will need every gun firing, whether it is Tommy or Beau.

I just thought it added to the conversation, sorry if you don't agree. I thought some people would find it interesting that two blokes who currently can't get a game are staying out until 4-5am.
