Re: Paddy Dow to play for Sandy
Do posters on this site believe Dow is best 22? I don't rate Dow highly, however assume he gets a run when fit due to the Crouch injury and our lack of midfield quality. If we can recruit/ draft some midfield talent I think he becomes depth. He is a midfield burst player that we dont have. Yes best...

Re: Phillipou
He plays the hardest position on the field. He is not a focal point and our game style doesn't reward spread and not in the right spots for turnover. Either needs a tank and go genuine mid or get stronger for forward.

Re: Gresham
Shiel at his best was a jet. He is the type of mid we are lacking. I'll back Ross to get him back near his best, if not his best and get 2 or maybe 3 good years out of him. If the rumours are true, that Essendon are willing to offer Gresham enough to trigger a 1st round compo for us (supposedly pic...

Re: Jay Clark's likes and dislikes ..Round 23
Is Hill an elite A grade player?....I say yes on his performances this year. IMO Brad was taking the piss in the last couple of years. He was not running fit like he is now. Power running is his one wood, and when he didn’t have it, he was ordinary. As much as you despise RTB, you’d have to agree B...

Re: Had there ever been a more reviled player than Gresham?
kicking straight was the only reason we were in the game. Up until 3qtr, our talls were strong in the contest and were marking most 50/50 balls their way. Carltank knew this and countered it.

Re: Lies, Damned Lies & Statistics
If you were to look only at the game statistics (excluding goals & behinds) you would conclude that St Kilda lost to all 3 of the Dockers, the Doggies and the Dopers. That's because St Kilda had less of almost everything but still won the games with a comfortable margin. I did not see anything ...

too injury prone and turns the ball over. I like his intensity at the ball, but our team is playing with that sort of tenacity atm.

Havent read it but ill add my 2c. We have been crap for 10+ years and we play in timeslots that are not great. Sunday 4:40etc. This does not attract sponsors. We loose. We have also help pay off marvel stadium. Clubs like Geelong if play at Cardinia Park earn 700k+ per home game for 25k attendance. ...

Re: Damian Barrett Again
We will always cop this tripe while we are an irrelevant club.
Win, take no prisoners as once we make it to the top (If we ever get there), it will be tall poppy syndrome as the media will still want to chop us down.
We need 20 years of continual success.

St Kilda's only GF coach this century. Fremantle's only GF coach ever. Amazing that he's not coaching while the likes of Brad Scott are. A no-brainer. Those who are still bitter, get over it. I did.

Re: From the hun's likes and dislikes
We should sign up Mason Wood, too. I would go another 2 years.
He gets knocked around here, but his good goes unnoticed unless he is kicking goals.
Does a lot of gut running and is always a switch option that is rarely used.
Great mark good size and great kick at goal. He doesn't miss many.

Re: Game Plan - Two Loose Men theory
the 2 loose men are generally behind the ball and to prevent quick turnover transition, or they are lazy loose rolling up or down guarding space.
