Re: Saints games in 2015

Why couldn't they give one of our interstate away games to melb ffs.
They have a miserly 3 compared to our seven.
Play same bottom teams twice so what is the reason I wonder.
Is Roos the golden boy or something?

Re: Saints games in 2015

I have been a member forever , but you look at this fixture and almost say "what's the point of becoming a member" Only 14 games in melb out of 22 rounds ? With 4 of those sun twilight games. I thought they were giving that timeslot the well deserved arse. The sooner we f@#k Wellington off...

Re: So the truth comes out why we didn't accept picks 4 and

At least midfielders esp pretrecca are ready to play straight away so would be a lot less risky than a big forward.
Would have preferred 4 and 7 if Mc cartin was avail at 4 but the saints must have got info that melb was taking him.

Re: Bumped

It kind of makes sense that teams on the bottom receive higher compensation than the higher teams. ie hawthorn with franklin - pick 19 Players who want to leave to play finals straight away leave their old club with a decent pick at least. Imagine the scenario if melb received bugger all for frawley...

Re: Armo linked to Tigers

Armo is only 25 so if hes retired by the time we re playing finals we re in big trouble. Unless someone offers us way overs he is exactly the player we need for the next few years. Not a lot of point to this trade.

Re: Hindsight.... GTrain or Kerr?

Was just thinking the other day how enjoyable and fun it was to go and watch the saints in that era.
More so than the saints of 09-10 I reckon.
The team rising up the ladder for the first time since 97-98 prob made it more enjoyable as well.
We used to smash sides by 60-100 points regularly .

Re: Petracca

If we get petracca this year we can always chase Boyd or Cameron next year with our first pick ( maybe pick one , two or 3. ) and a player . Maybe even a 3 way involving Stanley now that White is a star.

I would love to see him back. He is a great leader and very good person, can't have enough of those at your club. He was very humble in victory as well after the granny That's because he felt guilty that he screwed his so-called mates over . He left them a player down and went to their direct oppos...

Re: This is reality...

Id like to know how many N.Zrs actually become members of an AFL footy team when they come over here. I imagine the number would be quite insignificant. Considering the population of Melbourne , an afl mad city, is about 4mill -there is 450,000 members of Melb teams, which is 10% of the population. ...
