Ted thought it was Parker or hinted it was from the Swans, but don't think he said exactly that.

If this comes off then all is forgiven Lethers. You have made some very good calls and even if the Hannebery deal bites us on the backside it might have been worth the risk IF it becomes the catalyst for good Swans players migrating to us or other player movement from other clubs

It's a big IF however, and I think the best driver of players coming to us in 2020 will be more wins on the board for this year

Correct, as I backed him up and was critised by some for supporting Ted, (by some who were uneducated enough to think that Ted and I were referring to Luke Parker)!!!!!

Thoughts now Corf and Scolly????? ;)

I never thought it was Parker, I can't speak for Ted(you have chosen to I see), however I always new it was Jones, as I stated 2 years ago, we nearly got him then!!!!!

LOL...Saints make a play for someone we made a play for previously...SCOOP!

Too bad his contract doesn't end mid-year, we could do with him after the bye. :D

Teddies scoop was a about a big fish apparently. Zak is a very good player but I wouldn't put him in that class. Ted also said don't be surprised if we bag another AA A-grader. Didn't know that Zakky had already made an AA team

No thanks. We've got enough players who turn the ball over on a regular basis.

Well at least Teddy wasn't sitting on the fence making hindsight calls was he!!!!! ;)

What's to say, we won't still bag another AA squad member?????

Some of you guys come up with the conclusion that it had to be Parker!!!!!

How has all this crap over the last few years about landing a big fish worked out for St Kilda? Please just STOP. Here's a better idea. Tell the player managers who want to talk to us that IF ANY word of trade talk with the Saints comes out or ANY monetary details of contract terms comes out in the media then the deal is OFF. Put it in writing to them if you have to

I don't live in a world dominated by cliches and generalisations. Sure, there'll be deals leaked and some trades like the Danger to Geelong or the little master heading back home were obvious, but I love the way clubs like Hawks keep coming out of the blue with triumphs and surprises like Scully, Wingard, O'meara and of course you had the biggest fish of all which swam north from Hawk territory and jumped out of Botany Bay....but that biggest of catches didn't go as far west as nearly everyone in the footy world thought :roll: :roll: :wink:

Lethers gets a big tick for me for his influence in reshaping our offield team.

His influence on the playing list side of things is still up for question though.

yeah dont know - Nathan looks tough plays tough but is certainly not dirty
Both brothers have been suspended tho

Loved the bye play between the two on the weekend with older brother making Zak look silly a few times - and certainly gave him an elder loving brother gob full
All good fun as Zak was hosting his brother while in town.. figure the rubbing might go on for bit longer

Yep, when Ted wrote "Luke Parker anyone?", then edited his post to remove it.
Spot on Scollop, 100% correct!

Looks like we have another scoop from AFL website, great stuff.
Is there anything about Mav and the offer from North Melbourne? Still surprised he turned that one down :lol:

Zak Jones is a solid AFL player, would welcome him at the Saints.
We don't need to grab anymore fringe players like Kent or the list will be clogged with fringe dwellers in 2-3 years time.

Mt Eliza boy so has to be a serious possibility.
Also Sydney are starting a re-build so eh wont be playing finals there.

I do worry about why we are always so keen to go to the media so early?
Puts a lot of pressure on the player with his current team-mates unnecessarily. Not sure it is a terrific strategy

Who am I.
80kg 181 cm. I am 23-years-old and my most damaging attributes are my pace and willingness to take the game on. I have used these strengths to advantage at half-back and in the midfield in past seasons, Brownlow votes 0, which is also a number that appears on my jumper, which features red and white.

Who am I.
71kgs 180cm. I am 24 years old and a damaging asset with incredible speed at the forefront of my game. I have unparalleled evasive skills, a knack for breaking through packs and a penetrating kick. I split time between defence and a wing. Brownlow votes 0, which is also a number that appears on my jumper, which feature red and white and black.

Clue - they are not twins.
