Re: Match thread. Saints V Bombers

Bonner was terrible. Marshall has a shocker. This one is on the players. Just didn't execute.

Re: Match Thread Saints v Hawks Round 11 2023

After Higgins spilled that mark everyone's heads dropped. There was no run left.
Just take the mark and go back and kick the goal FFS. Too busy planning his celebration

Yes it does.
But that's not an issue for us this year, we're not getting anything for Dunstan.

Re: Pick Swaps

With NGA's thought we'd be after more points. Pick 49 = 287 points Pick 62, 66 = (123 + 80) 203 points So less points for this year... So to answer the OP.... no. But in reality, what will happen is picks 62 and 66 will become mid to low the 50s after the Dogs and Collingwood use all of their assem...

Re: Is Higgins any good!?

Have a look at our recent history (2009-2010) when we acheived near sucess, it was all achieved by getting our draft picks right leading up to that period. So what do we do since then, is not put the right people or resources into recruitment. We have been recruiting other teams cast offs for 100 y...

Trading one of Clark, Coffield, King, Marshall, Howard, Billings or Gresham would be the only way. It's a no from me.

Obviously exploded when playing ruck. He's smart, agile, can take a mark and a good set shot. I view him as a ruck who will rest forward....
