Re: Resign Richo - it’s the circuit breaker we all need

We are not going to do anything. The AFL is in charge of our club and they say Richo and the board stay.

Re: Brown

Brown is an experienced big body. That is it. He also is a sensational bbq master with the steaks....I only looked and he knew I wanted it bloody. But hes done and he himself is amazed hes getting selected ahead of s few of the lads...but he knows it's only those 2 things - body and experience. Grea...

Re: Match Thread Saints v Swans Round 12 2018

can it get sadder than this ? we are %^$#$#ed the swans have just shown the rest of the league how inept we are, Richo really needs to put his hand up after this game , hey I can't do this and I'm willing to move aside to allow change. watching the ball move so freely for the swans with no pressure...

Re: Goddard

Honestly I dont know where anyone was sitting watching Hugh play...he has always presented slow, sluggishly chasing forwards. His injuries didnt make him slow he always was in every game. I have watched 2 games in the past month of his AFL efforts on video and he was not impressive.

Lol so it’s come to this? We’re going down the well done “proud of you boys good effort” route? After being 1-10? And playing some of the worst football seen in recent times ??? Yeah,ok then. No - No-one is happy we lost! But were you happier at the end of the third or the fourth considering that i...

Re: We're on Track

Good post. Fortunes can turn quickly at footy clubs in the space of a couple seasons. I currently think the Saints don't have a bottom 4 list at all. The season has gone to s*** and its not good enough, but the club has to re-align its expectations and where we are really at. It is happening right ...

Back again

I reckon it is time for Bruce to go back into defense. He's a decent mark, has a decent kick and speed. He's already skilled as a defender and can certainly close, he can jump and crash packs and bring ball ground. We have lost Carlisle for 2-3 weeks. Logan needs a senior player to direct him back t...

Ruck Situation

It seems to me Hickey is gaining confidence and has been slowly improving in both hit outs and tap to advantage at clearances. I have never been a huge fan. I think giving up our best ruck in 20 years was moronic but we are here now. Lewis and Billy - we need to trade if we can get anything. Marshal...

Agreed, th ed one place he excels is the mcg. So he has to stay. Marshall can help in the ruck and Austin has to play.

No new newnes?

Surprised there wasn't a discussion about Newnes. He gets put in the forward line and Gresh slots into more mid....the result was very surprising. Noting the lack of any significant forward on the night yet the opportunity to kick 6 or 7 goals does not come often for a "forward" his size. ...

The coach of the VFL team is on a hiding to nothing. Until we have total control over that team and the top up players are just that, then we are doomed. Sandringham are an entity in their own right. We need to take over that team entirely or do it to Frankston as a merge or die option. Until we ha...
