Re: American perspective: “Eric Bana’s Favorite Aussie Football Team is the Buffalo Bills of Down Under”

Could be worse - he might have picked the Washington Generals.

So great to have Eric on board- definitely a hard-core Saint.

Re: Coaches votes Round 9 vs Hawks

No worries, Fonzie !

It is possible that Amon got the 5 and 2, and RoMa the 4 and 3. I think however that your prognostication is more likely to be spot on.

Votes v Hawks

5. Jack Steele. Kept lifting . Great desire. 4. Rowan Marshall . His opponent was excellent, but Rowan was even better, especially late. 3. Josh Battle. 2. Cal Wilkie. 1. Riley Bonner. Superb early. Less so later on, but I think only the four players above went past him. In good news for all Saints ...

Re: Match Thread: Saints vs Roos

Probably rest a Garcia or Hastie for Henry I’d like to see Shoenmakers for Bonner but not sure they’d do it If Dow performs he has to be considered…Steel needs help Be great to have some pressure for spots I’d have rested Marshall today …maybe next week? I suggest the following. 1. Henry to high ha...

Ross post-game said Liam Henry trained well today and will come straight in next week. There are a few candidates to make way for him.

Re: Mattaes Phillipou

Mattaes very disappointing. He is still a teenager for another 7.5 months ,and I think long term he will be very valuable , but right now he does not deserve a spot .

Re: Injury Update

Only 6 players selected for neither seniors nor Sandy - Butler , Higgins, Crouch, Van Es, Henry and Hotton. Cordy named as emergency for seniors but also listed as being rested and not named for Sandy so looks like he will be rested. All bar Hotton are on our published injury list . Not sure what th...

Re: Team v Roos

Congratulations to Jack Hayes on fighting back from two years of injuries to earn senior selection. Not to put a dampener on it but he did play late last year against Brisbane at the Gabba. Sorry about that - I missed that game , visiting my daughter overseas. In any event, I am glad he has another...

Re: Match Thread Saints v Port Round 7 2024

Hastie did a few nice things, but was twice beaten one-on-one by Burgoyne. Worth a start next week for sure, but I am not totally enthused yet. Anyway, good luck to him.

What's the point of all of this? We had a great ANZAC Day ceremony before the Pies vs the Bombers yesterday. ANZAC day is over. If AFL were played over Xmas-New Year, would Santa show up before the game on Boxing Day? Is that a rhetorical question, or do you genuinely want to be educated as to the ...

Demoralising. Hard to find votes, but here we go . 5. Brad Hill. Clearly our best early , when the pressure was hottest. 3. Marcus Windhager . Got it a bit. 3. Hugo Garcia. I like him a lot. 2. Seb Ross. Good endeavour. 1. Tim Membrey . Junk time goals , but at least he kicked them. 1. Cal Wilkie. I...

Re: Match Thread Saints v Giants Round 5 2024

I don't really know where to post it but Cordy was huge today. Not in any specific part of the game, but compared to the final last year he held his own, won his contests, and gave a bit where needed. Before the season I had Howard firmly ahead of him, but I think it's line ball right now. I agree....

Can't remember when it was - that is why the rule came in - because a player from North took literally a minute to have his sho in the dying seconds of a game (against us)
It was Mason Wood !
