Re: ..at the risk of positivity ..

We're normally chasing to catch up on the scoreboard, so haven't had a chance to close out anything. We haven't been comfortably in front except maybe the North match and also in the game against Collingwood we got 5 goals up early in the last. We have the talent to play an exciting brand. Just need...

Re: ..at the risk of positivity ..

If we get close to finals ..or if we make finals, that gives us a better chance of landing LDU

Why would he come to a club just for money? He'll get decent money if he stays at North or if he goes to another bottom 6 club...but does he want to be in rebuild mode for the next 3 years?

So was Billings (hardly ever dropped). So was Gresham (was he ever dropped?)

What about Weller and Newnes. I don't think they were ever dropped either...and they had poor games

Re: Crab watch

If you want to encourage a player you don't drop them to the reserve competition every time you suffer losses. The coaching and the development was inconsistent A player's improvement isn't always linear. Instead of dropping senior players or pets like Gresh or Billings, it was usually Long or Acres

As painful as it can be to watch St Kilda playing poorly, I have long ago decided that there's no point getting all worked up about it, getting cranky at players or coaches only adds to the misery.....
Good advice 👍

Re: Changes for Gold Coast

Once again, fans are focussing on a couple of errors from Bonner and forgetting everything else that he does well in each game

Not sure what plans Batchelor and Lenny have for Schoenmaker for this year...but Bonner won't be dropped until the time comes when Arie is ready to come into the side.

Re: Hunter Clark!

Clark will never have the running capability of a top line mid but can certainly rotate through there. Given his managed TOG he was probably short of a gallop and this is why he was not promoted sooner. Agreed. I think his main issue is still his strength and fitness. Going to require a lot more ha...

West Coast is one match. Better to look at the year as a whole How are St Kilda mids going this year compared to the competition’s stars? The results are a bit of a surprise.

Re: Harley Reid karate chop on Windy's throat

It was a cheap dirty shot and you can cause a lot of damage doing that. Did you see how Windy was gasping?

I'm thinking BEFORE the corrupt AFL and West Coast somehow get Reid off the charge, he should be cited for the karate chop

One of the last stoppages on the boundary . Less than 30 seconds left on the clock until the final siren Reid and Windhager. Push and shove. Reid hits Windy with a karate chop to the throat.

Re: Something Is Missing

As you say, it's difficult when there's mass changes every week Team is now settled...so no changes for next week. Crouch helps mentor our VFL squad. Winning form is good form.
