Re: Sam Gray from Port
More ridiculous ideas from our management team
The fact is that he is only just a little better than Lonie but very marginal
So why?
If he was 25% better than Lonie ,yes
But lineball what is the advantage.

What trades could St Kilda make?
You can lock Bradley Hill in at the Saints. Unsure what for given St Kilda don’t have lots of draft picks to play with. It might go late.
Am told Sam Gray is a very good chance to get to the Saints. Hill yes, Paddy Ryder probably. Adam Tomlinson is a long-time target for the Saints and Zak Jones’ future is in limbo at the Swans too.

Re: Sam Gray from Port
I like it.
The Saints are under review, will it make any difference to the underachievers ?

Re: Sam Gray from Port
Why are we tossing Lonie out with the bath water?
We have persevered with him and it's starting to pay.
I'm not saying he's better than Gray. Gray has had 2 more seasons than Lonie. He is not statistically much better.
Does anyone know if Gray is some type of leader etc at Port?

Bradley Hill from Freo...watch this space.
Paddy Ryder from Port...watch this space.
Adam Tomlinson from GWS...watch this space.
Zak Jones from Swans...watch this space.
Month old scoops are the best. So exciting.

Fiction? Pretty factual if you ask me, confirmed by a number of sources. Or do you mean your posts?

Re: Sam Gray from Port
I just post opinions... don’t need to post fake news to pretend to be something I’m not.
You like that though, I get it.
Here’s the thing... 15 players have been linked to the Saints so far this off-season. They’re not all coming to us... most wont. That click bait BS posts consist of anything and everything people make up in an attempt to generate interest but its overwhelmingly BS.
Like articles in the Herald Sun footy pages... designed to make idiots part with their money so that they can feel special and be in the know when in fact they’re just peddling garbage.
A huge number of forumites here are fed up with this style of posting because we see it for what it is... it’s not real discussion. It’s a waste of time.
You obviously like it. You believe it. The majority are educated and see AFL trade news, the Scum, and the Facebook pages for what they are.
