Re: Is Pelchen as good as we think

he still has beverage and a few others that usally help out with the draft id say he will be more involved with the trading rather than draft choices although he will have a plan of what is needed Indeed, he has a different role with the Saints than what he had at the Hawks. Think he was the list m...

Re: Bombers to make a play for Goddard

Then send Raph Clarke, who GC have interest in as a half forward Is this for real? I think we would need to give more than him & pick 12 for 2 very good young players. Yes for real. And I agree, it would be a really good deal for us. But, Caddy out of contract and can walk if he wants. A first ...

Re: Bombers to make a play for Goddard

So far Goddard has been off to Carlton, Essendon, Fremantle and Melbourne. Oh and he's also a chance at staying with the Saints. These sort of stories will be every week until free agency actually starts. Only then will we get a true picture of who the real players are. Let's see, if BJ goes and we...

Re: We desperately neecd a couple of Talls

McEvoy will improve in hitouts. He needs to continue to increase his strength and learning how to use it. He can run all day and is better around the ground than most big men. His leadership has been talked about and seems to always been cool under pressure IMO. We will move forward with Ben IMO, wi...

Re: We desperately neecd a couple of Talls

A key defender that can make our best 18 is the priority. A back-up ruckman, (eg. Josh Fraser, Sikora) that could come in and cover McEvoy if he's out. I would like 2 tall forwards picked in the draft. One with our 1st or 2nd pick, another a bit later. Saying that, with our 1st round draft pick we h...

Re: Stephen Milne

If they picked the team on positions , he deserves to get in , but they always pick about 10 -12 midfielders , so i reckon he will miss out ! His worst stat is he's played in 16 finals for only 7 wins , a couple more wins than losses and we'd all be a hell of allot happier ! We'd all be alot happie...

Re: Clint Jones

I think kicking is the issue as opposed to being a defensive specialist. We have seen Ray play a similar role and is definately more damaging with the ball.
Think the other week when running into an open goal and not taking the shot has been burnt into the coach's mind?!
