Maybe pick 7 or 8 will deliver us a Lenny Hayes

"capacity to win his own footy" - Bonar Sounding like the type of MID St.Kilda needs. Just before I had to check on where exactly Lenny Hayes was drafted in 1998. The great man was snaffled up by St.Kilda @ pick # 11 I'm getting increasingly hopeful that either one of our 2 picks (7 & ...

Dog Win G.F. & lose Good Friday game. Still In front

Mick your point is very valid and for that reason these 3 clubs are probably better off presenting a united front. What the bummers got with their privilaged deal should be no more than equal to what St.K, Dogs & North get going forward. I believe we are better off if we can exert more pressure ...

A.Bonar appears an impressive young man

Aiden returning to good form from 2 acl injuries is a story i itself. I thought watching the video link up abpve that Aiden comes across as a well grounded young footballer with a strong focus on where he wants to be. He's been through a bit already but sounds very positive. I watched the video of y...

Why is St Kilda stilll being screwed @ the Dome?

Hey Enrico I had to stop myself mentioning the $6 million dollar issue in my previous post as I felt I might be coming across as too negative while alienating too many Sainters with my criticism of the AFl. However, I'm glad you said what you did, "The reason we are $6m in debt is because we ha...

How long will St Kilda be screwed @ the Dome ?

The laughable situation in place @ the Dome continues relentlessly it seems. Our Club has already been severely ripped off because of AFL assumptions that near enough support is good enough. The notion that 'first club in'- Essendon could siphon of the cream of some kind of better tenancy agreement ...

Re: 2017 Draft. Picks 7,8- who do you want?

Doh,Ii didn't get to say I didn't know Quayle was working with GWS now.
More help for GWS !
I think I heard it's the first time in 16 years or so that the Saints have 2 picks in the top 10.

Hope to blazes we use them wisely.
Go Saints.

Ameet Bains leaving Saints -Damn.

Disappointed to hear Ameet leaving us for a CEO job on the other end of town.
Hoping we can keep developing on the recruitment front.
we need as many good brains in the brain trust as we can manage.
Best of luck to us come the Draft.

Picks 7 & 8

Have heard in the media that the pies are keen on a particular tall, if so hopefully not the same player our recruiters might be keen on as well given the pies have pick 6 before we make our two choices @ 7 & 8.

Both sound very professional & focused. Of coarse I have little idea.
Sounds like a tricky job especially if there are sliders on the day.

Devon Smith drawing Saint interest? SEN this arvo

Just heard earlier today(SEN) that our Saints may be interested in putting in a serious play for Devon Smith. I think Spud was part of the brains trust dissecting this possibility on air. It was mentioned that why would the Saints go for another small fwd. But Spud made the point that Devon as a gen...
