Re: Darcy Wilson

Darcy Wilson is the new Darrel Baldock. Prove me wrong . No one's that old . Ah,no. If Harley Reid had been tackling Baldock instead of Wilson, he would not have copped 2 weeks. You can't get suspended for tackling fresh air. Wilson is going to be very good though, maybe he can reach the level of a...

Re: Still effing pathetic

Windy to Reid should have happened 10 minutes into the second quarter. Did it take Ross getting crook and Enright taking over for it to happen?? It’s nice theory Goes well with most of your dribble Not based on facts though Enright confirmed who coached all day in presser Carry on with your story t...

Re: Robbing Peter to pay Paul?

We have enough emerging HBF's to release Sincs to the midfield. If not for the current side, then for our future side. Today's HBF is tomorrow's midfielder. If there's a steady stream of players through that role on the way to a permanent midfield role we will improve over time. Sinclair much more ...

Re: Robbing Peter to pay Paul?

I think it’s time to put Sinclair back to where he plays his best football for the team, off half back. Let him have the cameo runs into the centre when needed, I think that’s more an effective use of his skills. In all the interviews I’ve seen, when asked where he prefers playing, he seems to allu...

takeaway, Staying conservative in your thinking is not the answer to St Kilda improving. Considering Brad Crouch as our 'best inside mid' is flawed.

Re: Innovative or perish. Part 2

The worst thing St Kilda could do right now is go backwards. I don't want to see a midfield with Seb, Steele and Crouch. I think there is a growing chorus of Saints supporters crying out for Owens to be used as an inside mid. I don't want him to be the second ruck. It's like the Blake Acres debate ...
