Re: Sandringham V North Melbourne

I think it’s obvious to anyone who knows just a little bit about the caper that Sharman will be an integral part of our side Integral in what position? Certainly not as a forward. He has played 7 AFL games this season for 4 goals. He can't even hold his place in the forward line, being moved down b...

Re: Players who can land a set shot

Tim Membrey also gets most shots that are expected to be kicked. It would be good to compare his stats. He has endured some wayward periods in his career, but also some "sharpshooter" periods. One of Membrey's wayward periods was when Ben Dixon was hired as goal missing coach, i don't kno...

Meanwhile convicted criminal burglar Marlion Pickett got to play with Richmond in a grand final after being released from jail.

Re: Match Thread: Saints vs Kangas

Good first quarter for the Zebras 45-20. And all three Kangas goals were from dubious umpiring decisions: the first coming after a dubious free kick in the ruck contest, the second after an "over the shoulder" tackle that wasn't, and the third after Greenwood of the Kangas manhandled O'Co...

Norf were really into him and he was keen too from what I have been told.
Carlton fans were saying that SOS picked him because he knew Carlton wanted him. They had next pick after us
So? Probably bulls*** anyway.

Re: Saints NGA article: Sam Linder

The trouble with NGA kids is that we cannot match a bid until pick 40 so if these guys are guns they will go before then. Northern states have no such restrictions. We were lucky with Owens & Windy as they went after pick 20 which was the bar that year. McKenzie our NGA that the dorks grabbed l...

Re: AFL’s play thing

I can assure you no one is more vocal and proactive to the AFL than Basset. He is a true Sainter so when the supporters feel an injustice has been done, I promise you he is just another disgruntled supporter who actually has a voice to the AFL. And he uses it. But as we all know it’s a fine line. U...

Much like Brayshaw changing direction into Maynard's flying bump/attempt to smother ... if he doesn't change direction Maynard may only just clip him Great argument, except that you're wrong about there ever being any possibility of Maynard missing Brayshaw.

If that were the case wouldn't the poor decisions be the same but be equally split between teams so free kick counts would not be so ridiculously one sided?
Yep. 100%

Re: Let’s talk about cheating

What do we know about the current senior umpiring group? Most seem athletic enough, not many spew at 3/4 time or cramp up. We know they are largely respectful of each other's decisions, not demurring even when they know a mistake has been made. Nice tight and supportive. We know they have collectiv...

Re: Comparing our Outs to other teams

That's a very interesting analysis cwrcyn, well done! With a 2-5 record after 7 games St Kilda have certainly not followed up on their good form last year when they also started the season with a long injury list. The big difference this year is that unlike in 2023 in most games St Kilda have not p...

One kick-in took too long, Port had covered all exits,
