Glass half full versus Glass half empty.
I like that they’re trying something could have sat on their hands and waited for all those free agents to knock down our door.
Newcombe goes ok why was he overlooked?

Re: Mid season draft
I think Sharman and Hayes were both msd pickups and both played/ filled a hole that year although struggled to cement a spot since. Newcombe for hawks has worked out for them. With a question mark on Crouch & Seb long term it would make sense to go for Hall if he can slot in this year. Is Hall b...

I expect those players to be fresh and play next week while we rest/ manage some others and leave them at home.
That’s my trying to be optimistic approach on these unusual choices.

With holding the ball it would be a more consistent result if the umps blew the whistle stopped play then tossed a coin , one team on each side of the coin.

Re: Time to sit back and relax
I have foxtel so l can watch all saints games live.
I am seriously considering taping them it is not stressful watching once it’s a done result.
Last night I went out and got home to watch the last 10 mins….great.

Re: saints interested in players already
Shoulda given up the 2nd rounder for Xerrie instead of Campbell couple of years ago.
Maybe looking a little further ahead if picking up a ruck.
My guess is if Stengel went anywhere I’d would be Carlton with Eddie betts

Re: RTB's Presser
We don’t have the cattle generally our skills let us down.
This is where I thought we’d be last year but was hopeful of better, after having a good year last year I hoped we’d be better this year.
Almost all the experts tipped us here so maybe they were right

Re: What do North, West Coast, and Tasmania all have in common?
When Ross left us and went to Freo I said to the wife …. They will win a flag before us. Hasn’t happened yet but at the time they had a potentially better list than us.
The experts all had GWS and Gold Coast having 3 flags each by now

Sometimes when judging a player I consider how they would go in an opposition team. How would he go at Collingwood? Probably ok. How about Geelong ?

Re: Saints NGA article: Sam Linder
The trouble with NGA kids is that we cannot match a bid until pick 40 so if these guys are guns they will go before then.
Northern states have no such restrictions.
We were lucky with Owens & Windy as they went after pick 20 which was the bar that year.

Re: Phillipou Close to Signing
If he’s such a dud how is another team going to give us 2 first round picks?
Was it this time last year, that Nas was homesick and heading back to SA at seasons end?
I’d say if he hasn’t signed by say round 12 it’s looking more doubtful that he’s staying.
