Re: Why Was Nathan Brown Dropped for the Last 2 Games?

That's funny because when he was in the side saints fans were calling for him to be dropped and that Richo only playing old players.

Richo can't do a thing right it seems.

Re: The Positives

Love Hunter Clark on half back. Very clean with his hands and kicking on both sides. Might be handy there in the future.

Re: Match Thread Maddie's Match Saints v Tigers 2019

Gresham needs to go forward. He's good in the midfield but his talent is wasted imo.

Re: The Coach or the List?

Other teams bomb it long plenty of the time, the difference is most of them have forwards who can either read it better or mark it. All we really have is Membrey - Bruce can never get enough separation as a forward, and when he does get some he'll often fumble it.

Efficiency

There is no way we are not the least efficient team in the competition. I'm not sure it has much to do with coaching because we dominate games in general to the point where we can double the inside 50s against the best teams in the comp and just constantly MISS SHOTS AT GOAL. Goal kicking accuracy i...

Re: McKenzie signs to 2022

Would like to see him play inside mid one day. I notice often late in games he can extract the ball from a tight situation quite effectively.

Re: Saints favourites with the bookies

I won $80 on the saints last week. We were $2.80 going into that game!

This week I've put $10 on the crows for some insurance.

Re: What about the Ruck?

Everyone should know by now how much hitouts are overrated. Just watch any stoppage and you'll see it's just a contested mess, only when the midfield is completely unmarked will a clean hitout ever go anywhere. That happens maybe twice a game.

Re: Seriously, where did this come from?

People forget that last year we weren't playing that badly (mainly the first part of the season). We just couldn't convert or deliver into F50 to save our life. Repeatedly won clearances and general play but just missed constantly and gave the ball back to the opposition who would routinely run it d...

Re: Time To Take Concussion Seriously

Would be nice to have a quality midfielder right now. Like I said before we drafted him, hitting targets in F50 is way more important than clunking marks from shocking passes. I remember the weeks before draft night saying there's no way we should select McCartin. Painful to think that fans on the i...

Re: Dixon's goal kicking predictions for us ...

Billings technique is not great. Holds the ball on an angle all the time when lining up. Should go back and watch some tapes of Ahmed Saad because if there's one thing I learned from watching him, was that if you hold the ball straight it will go straight.

I remember fondly the footage of Harvey side stepping and wrong footing the Carlton players one after another... sublime. Somebody please put it up if they know what I’m talking about. I watched this as a kid and that bit of play is the very reason became a fan of St Kilda. https://youtu.be/6be84TH...
