All our tackles are too weak. 95% of the time the player just gets hands away, or breaks the tackle. Would be nice if our players pinned an arm and dragged a player to the ground wouldn't it...oh wait 🤔 The umpires let the opposition do pirouettes and then it's play on 2 seconds into a tackle. It's...

Yeah nah...

Whatever you do, please don't tell us he's a ripper

I like Pou. I think he's got the talent and the right attitude to make it as an AFL player, but I'm nervous about the way St Kilda develop some of our so called 'star' young players.

I’m not convinced he would even get more than 20 possessions in the VFL, but I don’t reckon we’ll ever find out Bet you he gets a spell soon. As soon as Dow and Clark are available. He's no where near being a first choice midfielder. Struggling as a forward as well, but I'm not sure if that's the r...

Whatever it is, he's a liability to team if he doesn't sort it out. 1 soft goal from dead in front from a free kick early in the game and then nothing Caminiti kicked a goal last week. Match committee dropped him. He actually took 2 contested marks inside 50 last week as well. King didn't take any c...

5 Sincs
4 Wilson
3 Hill
2 NWM
1 Hayes

Wood was great considering it was his first game back. Dougal was very good in his second game back. 13 marks 7 intercept possessions.

Marshall was important as was the captain Jack Steele

I wonder if he's got the balance right outside footy and whether his attitude and energy reflect his personality. What does the guy do in his private life? Is he studying? Does he have a girlfriend? I don't want to know personal details. I'm not interested in gossip, but it's crucial that our develo...

Wiiiiiilllllllssssssson

So King gets to play as the number 1 forward and what does he deliver? I reckon we'd be better off with Caminiti. Trade Max at the end of this year. Get set for a few frustrating games where the coaches instructions are to look for Max at every opportunity. Don't worry... it's just a short term ploy...

Well done Dougs

Why …someone tell me why Max King can’t lead up at the ball carrier??? Why stand around, wrestle, for miracles?? FMD if you jump you’re about 8ft ….so stand and wrestle??? Rob Harvey WTF are you teaching re forward craft …oh wait.. 1-5 down centre clearance…wow we are way off it 3 years away.. IF e...

Pelchen and Lethlean and Trout and Richo were all just looking to earn exhorbitant salaries at the expense of the St Kilda FC They didn't deliberately screw up imo. They were just incompetent. We're our own worst enemy. The evidence is overwhelming We gave them the keys. We chose Alan Cho Richardson...

Forget about the narrative that Freo 'also' got rid if him. Carlton offered him more money and a better longer term contract Blake never wanted to leave Melbourne, so he jumped at the opportunity to come back here. We need to learn from those stuffups. Don't sell the farm for one player. Don't give ...

Now that we have Hill, there's no going back. Hill has exceeded my expectations. He is an asset to the club for his leadership and as far as his efforts and performance on field...he deserves every dollar we're paying him But...I still believe it was wrong of St Kilda to do the trade for what we gav...

Just polish up a pair of black leather steel toe work boots. They'll look great

Have a look at who's been backed in to play this week (Dougal Howard)... And who's been dropped (Zaine Cordy) Don't get me wrong. I like what Zaine offers as back up and for the short term he has earnt his keep...but we need to constantly think about what our team will look like in 2026 and beyond D...

King will have a big day tomorrow

He's due for his 1 good game in 4.

Probably won't get a touch the week after

Norf were really into him and he was keen too from what I have been told.

Carlton fans were saying that SOS picked him because he knew Carlton wanted him. They had next pick after us

Yes please

Would like to have seen Collard get a run We are tall I'm tipping Collard will be the guy that Ross treats a bit differently to the other newbies. He must have said something cheeky or didn't bow when he was supposed to Good in’s but they maybe a bit under done A bit surprised Collard missed out ha...

Sharman stiff. He would have a field day against the Kangaroos. No Dan Butler, No Jack Higgins and we’re not replacing them with a crumbing forward Are they expecting Hayes, Membrey and King to be clunking everything that comes their way? I suppose they could…it’s North that we’re up against :mrgree...

If Seb Ross keeps playing like he has in the last 2 weeks he won't be on the list next year. Credits in the bank will evaporate like the US dollar.

Even Gerard Whateley was sympathetic to the Higgins case. What does that tell us!!! There's been inconsistency for over a decade. The MRO and MRP before that, and the tribunal have all confused footy fans and players alike. The AFL has failed to properly adjudicate on head high collisions, or anyth...

Gerard Whateley said if you’re going to tackle someone who is upright then you’re better off letting them get a kick or handball away, rather than tackling them to ground and risking suspension. Have a read of a conversation they had on Fox Sports 2 weeks ago - before the Higgins Aliir incident. Ger...
