Re: Stars that were late bloomers

What about that forward fisher we took at aged 21 at pick 50 odd. Didn't look that flash early on. Should not have persisted with him.

Re: Rd 4 team vs Pies

Good to see billings named, hopefully paddy makes final cut. Would be silly to drop either of those two. Cos they were high draft picks and therefore deserve special treatment? No because They both obviously have talent and I would like to see them both have a continuous run in the seniors to see i...

Re: A win

A win is a win. We didn't play well and we won. No Stevens, no Armo, returning from Perth. I'll take one in the bank thanks.

Re: Changes for Pies match

Surely if fit McCartin stays in. After many interruptions I would like to see him get a solid go at it. Ridiculous to drop him after 2 games.

Re: Jade Gresham

Gresham is a gun. Anyone who doesn't agree clearly isn't as qualified as me to comment about footballers.

Re: Roo = Brownlow?

Richo got close in his last couple of years when he started playing more on the wing. Roo > Richo

Re: Jarryn Geary

you're not a hater just because you don't rate someone. I think his ball use is a fail but love the way he goes about it and the way he leads. true that, but you haven't read the constant barrage of hate towards Geary from this supposed Saints supporter. Never any facts to back it up, just constant...

Re: Lonie & Sinclair

I think Lonie has had a much bigger impact on our performances this year. His forward pressure and pressure acts and repeat pressure are unbelievable. He shows enourmous stamina in those repeat efforts. If not for some wayward set shot kicking, would have kicked a handful more goals. I'm still not ...

Re: Round 22 Adam Goodes

Love the Goodes train. Have followed his career with interest since he was the second best player on the day in the 97 grand final kicking a bag for Ballarat rebels in the curtain raiser. I grew up in a region with a large indigenous australian population and really like that he speaks out. He might...

Re: Potential Future A-Graders

Billings to be a ridiculously special match winner. Game v Doggies and VFL game v Frankston last year case in point. McCartin and Goddard seem to have the smarts. Sinclair will be the one in 5-6 years people will talk about as THAT rookie. Wish we had two young blokes like Billings and Sinclair in 0...

Re: Geary needs to have a big year

Too many bad disposals directly result in opposition goals. Has a crack but a measure of our improvement is when Geary is no longer in our best 22.
