Re: AFLW

Yes please [and I expect I will be flamed] It is great that our 'Angels' are on top - but it is a hard watch. It has been a long time since you could sit back and think - we are 8 points up - 5 minutes to go - we have this in the bag. Not faulting the effort - they are probably better AFL players th...

Re: Dermot Brereton

How do you put millions away this seasons and next to pay in the future? The SC is there every year, you must pay up to 95% of it each season. I've rolled out the butcher paper and crayons out to draw you a picture, because you clearly can't comprehend simple concepts. Then again I can't be bothere...

Re: Lukosius

If King turns out to be the calibre of Daniher, McKay and Wright he will have been a bust. He may never have as much value on the trade market as he has right now ever again. If you get 2 firsts for him we win, no matter what he turns out to be. Has to be considered. Sorry - is there a firm 2 round...

Re: Lukosius

Key forwards take years to develop and King will improve over time. He needs to work on his craft for sure but we should not kick the ball to him every single time. He has no chance when double teamed FTFY OMFG He is NOT Reiwoldt - might be - but not now. Imagine this kid as a 2nd fiddle to Hawkins...

Re: 6 v 7

We need two pure midfielders though. That much is obvious - even in the final game where we beat Carlton, you can see we lack run and carry. We should pick them up in this year's draft. How very St Kilda of you!!! :D We need 2 players - ready made - to make St Kilda Great Lets get 2 x 18 yo recruit...

Re: Lukosius

.... let him lead? You think Ross chains him into a spot? HE chooses not to leadut our integrity) and we pray he kicks 1 or 2. Or he is so pissed at the ball being kicked at him - not to his advantage???? I do not know the inner workings - but I do see that even when he leads it is dumped ON HIS HE...

Re: Keeler, McLennon, Heath, Stocker, Byrnes and Webster Re-sign

Heath is an interesting one. Now that Campbell is gone, hopefully big Moose and accelerate his progress. He seems to have stagnated a bit in 2024. Needs to get a lot fitter and stronger. If not, I can't see him competing at AFL. Lots of work for the fitness and development coaches. Let the Moose Lo...

Re: What should have been goal of the year imo.

No - sorry - the AFL is not going to reward a controversial kick (outside the boundary???) when it is St Kilda - if he was still wearing Yellow and Black - maybe.

I thought the unrealistic marking attempt was paid a free, with advantage taken by Saints???
Just re-watched - no whistle - no play on - just the assumption that by taking the kick we had elected advantage (maybe a fair enough assumption - but it was not an advantage as it led to a stoppage)
