In Joyce

That gives Roma a back up, which is a positive, with Ben Long the most likely to be the medical sub as he can play at both ends and at a pinch through the middle!

After last weekends surprise win, management must have decided to ensure we loose, with Connolly and Joyce out, and Kent remaining! The best Draft position has to be secured and this is an excellent move !

What a Kourka!

No "Peahearts" there! Played for each other with passion, attitude and toughness!!!

Now that you mention it, I can see that comparison.
DMac perhaps a bit bigger bodied, but Frankie went alright and certainly wasn't "Pea Hearted" in a time of "hard at it" football.

Think we've found one in Sharman!

One word:..........DUD!

Apart from aggression, I can't see what Ben Long offers. I don't see any problem with him being omitted I do because Ben Long} and Josh Battle, who some on here also don't rate, play with attitude and grit, a character/ingredient to frequently in short supply this season from many of their teammates!

I'm onboard any with any form of Saints representation in the AFL/AFLW! [A relocated Tassie Saints would still have me engaged as well!]

Right person, Right time!

Ii's a bond that my family has had for generations. We're in this together, for the few highs and so many lows, with our fellow brotherhood/sisterhood of Saints supporters. There's the camaraderie as well. When you meet fellow Saints supporter there's an unstated mutual understanding of what each ot...

Just about sums JWeb up!

I must sound like a warn out record but how on earth does Kent get a game. I shudder every time he's near the play, let alone in the play.

That’s an ordinary looking team!

Kent and Hunter in the one team.

Good for Hunter as Kent will make him appear a competent player!

In his presser Ratts stated Highmore and McKenzie will not fly to perth tonight. When asked who would replaced.......did not commit but said we have no one else So no Josh Battle? Is he injured too?

Not before Kent. Again another good impression of a headless chook! Kicked his usual amount of goals as well!1111

I'm fine with Kent.

I'm not.
I agree with you re Lonie.
I see Kent as you see Lonie!
Both list cloggers and both need to go!

Butler ------------------------------------->Daylight----------------------------------------->Kent He should never ever play in the first. He's in the same category as Paul Hunter, with PH shading him. Kent offers nothing! Can''t mark. Can't kick. Can't tackle. Can't handball. Shirks contests. Runs...

Paton and Long are the other two I'd like to see big improvements this year. I think they both have another gear in them. Yep, couldn't agree more. They show tantalising glimpses of their potential and to where they might end up. Both Josh Battle and Roma also show that as well! In those 4 alone, t...

Rotten luck for Gears, so perhaps now a Co - Captain situation would suit, with Gears and another [probably Jack S] sharing the role.

Yep, like Longs intent. see football, get football. If your in the way, so be it! I also like that streak in Battles game as well!!

I'd love to hear from fellow saints fans how they see our best 22 looking for next season, allowing for the additions of Crouch and Higgins and Carlisle staying. Mine is: Paton Howard Wilkie Long Carlisle Coffield Hill Steele Clarke Butler Marshall Billings Gresham King Membrey Ryder Crouch Jones I...

Love watching the Girls.....! And I mean that in the "appropriate" way. They are going to be a powerhouse [and the fellas are following their lead]. Peta knows how to coach so a "no brainer" appointment!

Cameron and Brown are both damned good players, but I’d say teams with more pressing needs will make them offers we be silly to try to match. Yes, we know this from experience. The Saints have had a large war chest for a few years, but it has until last year, reaped little reward. We know money isn...

Why not throw the kitchen sink at this man? He would work very well with king and membrey Free agent cost us nothing but cap space He could make a massive difference If he doesn’t want to come to us so be it, but gee he is almost a perfect fit.... Yep a far far better option than Brown and would be...
