There is every chance that Carlisle will never play a game in the red white and black

There is every chance that Carlisle will never play a game in the red white and black

Why?

He is working hard, talking to the boys, telling everyone how he cant wait to be a saint, he has bought in to the saints journey .... Hes getting the Hip surgery needed and rest. He is a gun. Whats the problem?

He is growing up.

Can I ask how you know this?

For all we know he is doing blow off a hookers boob right now.

Come on grow up.

Hes working construction. They are drug tested. We'll be first to know if hes stuffed up.
Hes in talks with the boys and others at club. And hes having surgery ... You think hes on cocaine now? Ffs it was a holiday thing everyone does cept very stupid decision to snapchat and very asshole degenerate so called mates profiting off it. All reports carlisle is a good person. I have full faith he will come back fitter than ever. I have full faith he now appreciates $550k pa. and i have full faith as a 24 year old he is ready to grow up.

Get excited we have signed a 200cm skilled backman capable of AA and more.

[lewdogs]

With the way the club is playing right now, Carlisle would be chomping at the bit to get out there.

The pleasing thing at present is that some of our mids are taking the next step. I'm talking about Ross Newnes and Dunstan.

Based on last week I'd have Lee as the best chance to replace Dempster. Having said that I wouldn't be surprised if Sean plays on for two more years.

If you are talking about the surgery on his hip........................... didn't he have that a few weeks ago? Unless you think he is having more surgery, if so, he'll be an old patched up crock before he gets to pull a Saints jumper on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I thought that was his nose cartlidge. Something to do with flared nostrils?

Poppycock.

[fugazi]

I personally would like to see Membrey develop into a tough mid size forward who can make his way into that team.
Also a spot for Heppell would be nice

[Con Gorozidis]

Surely there is a 99% chance Carlisle will play for us this year. A year off isnt that big a deal. He can be training with the club officially in November.
Players miss a season through injury all the time. A year off might actually be good for his body long term. He is only 24 and 198cm. Surely his best years are ahead of him?
Should be cherry ripe next year.

[Zed]

I think the group has less stars than the previous finals outfits of 97-98, 04-06, and 08-11, but works better as a team. The old Champion Team vs Team of Champions debate. I think the coach has to take a lot of credit for that.

Definitely capable of making finals - but I think we still need a couple more very classy run and carry ball users to go all the way. A Peter Burgoyne type in the back line, and a Robbie Gray type midfielder.

Taking illicite drugs on holidays is not something everybody does ffs.

[To the top]

The anticipated future side highlights our requirements viz:-

1. Some more mid-field class spread to the flanks and the interchange in support of Armitage, Steven, Billings, Freeman, Dunstan, Acres (the last 4 in Draft order) and Ross and Newnes who are currently the core.
2. A further tall and mobile defender to compliment Carlisle and Goddard.
3. A further tall and mobile forward to compliment McCartin and Bruce.

[Bunk_Moreland]

So between now and 2018 we are not trading or drafting anyone who can get a gig in the seniors?

Couple of the rookies look okay.

And there are one or two still to be added to the list.
