Re: Hawks into Battle and Windhager
If we lost Windhager, we may as well give up. We have to keep that young core together. I'd also hate to lose Battle, he wins his spot most weeks , fit, versatile, huge asset.
But if I was a player, I reckon I'd be open to offers elsewhere, I can't blame them

Re: Do you enjoy supporting the Saints?
No, not really. After 2009/10 when we should have got one, it now feels a million miles away. I wish I could not care so much. I've taken to not watching games live very often, and following scores on my phone. I'm not sure there is another sporting side that snuffs out optimism with such predictabl...

Re: Are we going full tilt in 2024????
Seems like we are committed to a bottom 5 finish.
All the downplaying of expectations from Ross and the president etc at the start of the season, the selection of youth, our game plan all suggest a deliberate controlled tanking.
I hope it's worth it.

Re: Changes for Freo
It's a s***, depressing, exhausting game plan
I'm not sure wtf we are doing, but we may as well tank from here.
Need a top 3 pick

Re: Ins and Outs
Pou has to be dropped if there is any integrity at selection.
He is clearly the coach's pet, but if a no impact 5 disposal game, on the back of several unimpressive games, gets rewarded with selection, it creates a real issue.

Re: Hunter Clark
Feel sorry for Hunter if it's a serious knee issue.
One thing after another, and must be wondering if it's going to happen for him.
I think we have to consider Crouch's career just about over. Excellent pick up for us while it lasted.

Re: Team v Port
I don't think we're going with 4 big defenders. I initially thought Howard (or Cordy) might play forward, until I realised Membrey, Sharman & Camminiti are all still in. Josh Battle had a huge part in our comeback against GWS when he went into the middle in the last quarter. We couldn't use him...

Re: The Eagles
Development. Another topic I guess but Owens, Windhager and Philipou gone backwards 100mph this year. Alarm bells I would have thought. If they do not work, then it’s nearly curtains for the club with Tassie coming in and hoarding all the picks. Low and behold we’d find ourselves on the bottom agai...

Re: Could we get a selection surprise this week?
Garcia should start, he and Windhager and hopefully Owens should grow into a strong midfield group.

Re: Garcia. Great Debut
Garcia, Wilson and Windhager all look like uber-competitive types. Hate losing and hate being beaten in a contest.
Good to have some of that white line fever intensity in there. It would inspire everyone including senior players to see the drive of Garcia to win the ball

Re: King cleared of ligament damage
Max would sit very comfortably in the best forwards in the competition.
He needs to lead more, but elite marking and work of the deck put him right up there.
Still improving.

Apparently he covered 15 km in the game, equal highest.
Looks to have a bit of a form dip, but he'll be back.
