Re: Match Thread: Saints vs Roos

Re: Tarryn Thomas, anyone?
Another issue IMO is the picking btw causes. I want to start this opinion off by making it clear that this view is not directed specifically at particular forumites - most notably BM and fireman who have expressed a preference for football to stay out of social issues. I respect that and don’t want ...

Re: Durrrrrr Howard
200cm key defenders are hard to find and even average ones are worth having. Howard has played some solid football for us in the past and when it comes to one on one his record is good except for the heavy giants like Dixon and Hawkins. He is not strongly built and that's a pity. I think the issue ...

Re: Team v Roos
Are we a bit too tall ? Both our small forwards are out so I thought Collard would come in. The ball might come out of our forward half too easily (like usual) if it hits the deck. I love Hayes but his selection says Marshall is missing ?? Given that he’s not in great form… and I know it’s already ...

Yes, he played well for Sandy, but I thought Ross n the other coaches were reluctant to drop anyone
FMD!

Re: Players in question for 2025?
Well Allison is gone… no questions there. Jones appears to have run his race Ross and Membrey are struggling for form now and age is against them both Paton simply looks to be a shadow of his former but may be saved by the lack of a suitable replacement. Especially if Webster retires. Dougal Howard ...

Re: Match Thread Saints v Port Round 7 2024
I gotta say… really impressed with young Caminati tonight. Presented and locked dangerous. Our forward line in general is a bit of a shambles with King, Caminati, Coops and Membrey being too tall and all over each other. Seems to me that Caminati is the most competitive of the bunch but he seems inc...

Re: Match Thread Saints v Port Round 7 2024
Most seem reassigned to a loss Hard to know what an acceptable result would be. Am not loving the fact the Caminati is playing hurt. It’s been suggested Howard plays forward too which makes me feel we’re way too tall. With Byrnes in poor form… feel like we’re a mid down too. Seems like less than 30p...

Re: Forward coach under pressure .
Is it the forward coach though!?
Is this Harves’ structure or is he trying to make what Lyon wants work?
Initial thoughts… part of Robert Harvey’s legendary status was achieved by hitting leading forwards on the chest. That’s not what this is.

Re: Zak Jones
You’re not really acknowledging that he’s an absolute shadow of himself at the moment. No impact out there. Has had a good few games now and should be amongst the best mids… had 7 touches to half time. That went with his 11 vs Richmond. His numbers are on par with Sharman who you’re ready to execute

Re: Crab watch
Gresham’s talent has never been in question. The challenge was always more his consistently vs cost of keeping him. And that’s a balancing act because his position is a tough position. Always turns in a number of match winning or close thereof performances a year. Less polished than Billings but has...

Seems to me that it’s easy to lay into the forwards and backs…
But the middle is the issue.

Really disappointed with Sinclair tonight.
7 touches, can’t get near it
To put that into context… Garcia and Sharman have 6
