Is our injury list preseason worse than our injury at the end of last season?
Can't be far off.

Can't see him getting anywhere close to what we thought he could be. Time is running out - should be on his prime but hasn't been 100% in 4 years.

Our club has rotten luck.
Sure, other clubs get injuries, but ours seem to be more frequent and more telling- bigger impact on our chances.
Just really hard to get my head around

Is the Moorabbin oval surface too dry and hard? (Never thought I's ask that)

Mmn..

Remember him saying he wanted to be a mid? Like Hunter C?
Is that what managers tell them to say?

Well, his back has been bad for a while, and perhaps the Saints knew it.

Expectations were really high, pressure was on. After he got that first great contract.

Getting dropped for 19 possessions a game tells me something. (Don’t ask! )
Responding with 53 at Sandy!

Pre -Covid was his best chance.

What we don’t know is intriguing.


You're quite brilliant Shane, yeah..terrific!
