Re: Dylan Roberton

Also we need to re-sign Savage. He has been good in the last half of the year. Serious trade bait, I'm told. His form in the second half of the season pleased the club enormously. His value soared. Roberton must be signed, but I never doubt the Hawks ability to get a deal done. They've offered him ...

That's what most posters here insist.

Maybe they will change their minds once he announces his retirement due to concussion issues.
You idiot. McCartin will smash it next year.

Re: Saints Back in for Dusty

Kelly will remain with GWS. Logical choice for him. I disagree, colleague. Dusty set a precedent in signing a new contract with Richmond. One which Kelly isn't following. He'll be champing at the bit to become a Saint once GWS' season reaches a conclusion. then why mention "a precedent"? ...

Have no fear. The mediocracy rules at the saints. He's doing a great job. The only thing more important than success is STABILITY. It's our new mantra. Keep the status quo at all costs.

Re: We Need a Gun Up Forward

I heard that Paddy won't do the required work and will not change the way he plays. Unsure if it is untrue but it is concerning. Geelong want Paddy badly apparently. Perhaps Tony can clarify.

Re: 2017....WHAT WAS IT?

It was a year of the Rooster (2017). 1873 (formed) and 1897 (joined VFL) are also years of the Rooster. StKFC (note the prominence of KFC) is therefore subject to the Chinese year of the rooster 12 year bad luck cycle in Rooster years. E.G. 1993 10 wins 10 losses finished 12th and coincidently kick...

I don't think anyone believe Newness had a stellar season. It wasn't poor either. Just solid and it reflects his ability. I'm bemused people are talking of delisting him or putting him up for trade like he is no good. Newnes is a reliable leader of the club and obviously sets a high bar for profess...
