Putrid reading

[ss1986]

Not sure why people are getting upset about selectuon when you look at this abomination.....

We have 16 players that would get into other AFL sides, being generous.

Over half the club, absolutely not up to AFL standard, soon wont be and therefore have little to no trade currency.

Some remain unknown.

Here’s who would get picked up by other teams today if we are being honest.....

Blake Acres - Yes
Sam Alabakis - Unknown
David Armitage - No
Logan Austin - No
Josh Battle - Yes
Jack Billings - Yes
Nathan Brown - No
Josh Bruce - Maybe
Jack Bytel - Unknown
Jake Carlisle - Yes
Hunter Clark - Yes
Oscar Clavarino - Maybe
Nicholas Coffield - Maybe
Luke Dunstan Maybe
Jarryn Geary No
Jade Gresham Yes
Daniel Hannebery No
Nick Hind Yes
Darragh Joyce Maybe
Dean Kent No
Max King Yes
Doulton Langlands Maybe
Ben Long Maybe
Billy Longer No
Jack Lonis Maybe
Jonathon Marsh No
Rowan Marshall Yes
Jack Mayo No
Patrick McCartin No
Daniel McKenzie No
Tim Membrey Maybe
Jack Newnes Yes, unbelievably
Matthew Parker Maybe
Ben Paton Maybe
Edward Phillips Maybe
Lewis Pierce No
Bailey Rice No
Dylan Roberton No
Sebastian Ross Yes
Sam Rowe No
Shane Savage No
Jack Sinclair Yes
Jack Steele Yes
Jack Steven Yes
Jimmy Webster Yes
Brandon White Yes
Callum Wilkie Yes
Robert Young No

[SAINT-LEE]

Jesus! Is Shane Savage still playing for us?

[B.M]

But we’re only losing because of the coach aren’t we?!

The sad thing is, the reasonable players on that list have missed the majority of the season.

Marshall, is our best player... a 25 game Ruckman
Worst list since 85

[theoracle]

Disagree on a few of those:
Nicholas Coffield - Yes
Luke Dunstan - Absolutely yes
Jarryn Geary Yes
Ben Long Yes
Jack Lonis Yes (I'm guessing you mean Jack Lonie )
Tim Membrey Yes
Matthew Parker Yes Absolutely
Shane Savage Yes

It's all just opinion.

Trolling 101.

[tedtheodorelogan2018]

Crap OP. Ridiculous.

[Toy Saint]

Quite realistic assessment.

Our recruiting staff must accept responsibility.

[ss1986]

Please Kingy.... tell me what you disagree with and why. Speaking the truth is not trolling

[IluvHarvey]

Considering Minchington got a second chance at Hawthorn I call the OP bollocks!

[ss1986]

Disagree on a few of those:
Nicholas Coffield - Yes
Luke Dunstan - Absolutely yes
Jarryn Geary Yes
Ben Long Yes
Jack Lonis Yes (I'm guessing you mean Jack Lonie )
Tim Membrey Yes
Matthew Parker Yes Absolutely
Shane Savage Yes

It's all just opinion.

If Yes, theyre Carlton or Gold Coast players at best.

Coffield I think is a bust, but that’s just my very early assessment.

Dunstan and Membrey - Carlton, Hawthorn maybe

Geary - not sure who he’d end up at at his age, injury and capability.

Ben Long and Parker are luxury, flaky players and suited to clubs challenging, but neither are good enough.

Jack Lonie is s***, except for 4 good games.

Shane Savage wouldnt get a game anywhere else these days.

Tim Membrey Maybe

Many other clubs would love to have Tim.

Disagree with a number of you other maybes, but the Tim one is just ridiculous.

Can admit when I’m wrong.... probably harsh on him. Would like to see him kick us home in more games though.

[cwrcyn]

Tim Membrey would be picked up in an instant by every other club in the competition, and they'd be willing to cough up a pretty fair price for him, too

[The Fireman]

Yep

[vacuous space]

It's worth remembering that other AFL clubs chose to put Hugh Goddard and Mav Weller on their lists for this year.

[B.M]

Both for Depth

Both are excellent VFL players, and OK back up players

[Trev from the Bush]

ss1986 is entitled to his opinion, as he has previously pointed out when challenged about his posts. Again, he defends his opinion which, I believe, is always going to be jaundiced.

It is just his way of letting everybody know he / she / whatever is not a happy StKilda supporter.

[HighettMan]

Please Kingy.... tell me what you disagree with and why. Speaking the truth is not trolling

Clearly you don't understand the meaning of the word truth and the context as it should be applied. I suppose that can happen when you cut and paste from other threads.

[Toy Saint]

It's worth remembering that other AFL clubs chose to put Hugh Goddard and Mav Weller on their lists for this year.

....and Darren Michington...

[B.M]

Each list needs 45 odd players

25 or so Senior players and a few fringe players about 8 back ups and about 6-8 kids developing in the VFL

Goddard, Weller and Minch were recruited as back up players

Remember we recruited a 30yo Sam Rowe FFS

[Beno88]

Funny to say Hannebery and Kent wouldn’t get a game at another club when they’ve done exactly that in the last 12 months.

[Life Long Saint]

Josh Bruce - Maybe

Stopped reading here!
He's a walk up start at every club.

[ss1986]

Please.

Not a single club would take them now.

Sydney laughed their ass off when we took Hannebery.

Melbourne are going so well they could afford to get rid of Kent ay? They knew he was shite.

[ss1986]

Bruce is the most overrated player we have. One season wonder.

Whatever!
He's being played in a role where he's not suited. He should be using his assets of speed and endurance (a bit like Roo) but he has to play deep forward and relieving ruck because of a combination of putrid coaching, player development, and injuries.
West Coast is the only club he might struggle for a consistent game...but if Hickey plays weekly, then I'm sure Bruce gets a game.
