Position shifts 2025
Not a ball has been kicked even in preseason training yet, but with the draft complete now is a good time to consider who's moving where this year.
Not expecting our recent draftees to play AFL just yet, so will exclude them for now.
I think the real movers will need to be Nas and Owens.
Owens needs to play on the ball, be at every ruck contest.

Re: Position shifts 2025
RTB has stated publicly that Mitchito is a forward.
To be honest, I’m inclined to agree.
Provided he is the third tall type, I think that would be his ideal position.

Mitchito is Aaron Hamill 2.0!

Re: Position shifts 2025
Whatever they’re doing… kid needs to be able to run and keep up his agility. Good as he is… he isn’t a Tim Membrey type elite mark. Needs to be more about power and impact in the contest
I would hate to see him baulk up too match and get slow

Re: Position shifts 2025
I was at training on Friday, i only counted 26 players out on the field, however, they ALL kicked the footy.Otiman wrote: ↑Sat 23 Nov 2024 8:50am Not a ball has been kicked even in preseason training yet, but with the draft complete now is a good time to consider who's moving where this year.

How many defenders will The Saints pick in the 2024 draft ?

Re: Position shifts 2025
I had hoped they were kicking the footy at training for the past 2 weeks. Would have been concerned otherwise.

Re: Position shifts 2025
Mitch has a lot of good qualities, but needs to be more consistent and work on his positioning if he plays as a forward- though he doesn't look a natural forward to me and I would love to see him in the back half.
