Re: Tarryn Thomas, anyone?
I find it fascinating that the original question I asked - "why is the community exclusively focused on female victims of violence/homicide when across the community in total 70% of the victims of violence and homicide are male"? The focus is entirely on 30% of the victims and "we sh...

Re: NordVPN- New Sponsor just announced
How many sponsors can a club have haha, the coaches polo is going to be lit up with sponsors like times square. Depends, if you are a Nascar driver it seems limitless. I wonder when sponsors will start having sportsmen tattoo their brand on their body. https://objects.kaxmedia.com/auto/o/141056/379...

Who are the two idiots? NFI but I'm guessing Battle given his FA status. Or has he re-signed? Typical of BM’s modus operandi of posting D.B.Cooper - he refuses to use the quote button so you often don’t know who he’s replying to in a thread. Now he’s obviously listened to or watched ‘2 idiots’ &...

Re: Isaac Keeler
Given the Paddy Ryder comparison, it is worth noting Ryder was a beanpole stick insect when drafted and certainly managed to beef up and become a more physical player over his career. https://content.api.news/v3/images/bin/3047ad0ce63f96bb55d5a7cda4324755 https://resources.portadelaidefc.com.au/phot...

This place just needs to calm the F down. Seriously It's a fan forum, a safe haven to vent your frustration, give ill-informed opinion and banter with other Saints fans. It gives superfans like Curly an avenue to rant over cheating umpires and AFL conspiracies, and 'it is noted' that the forum offe...

Cannot believe that some want Bonner out. Yes he misses with his kicks a couple of times, but when it comes off it is elite. His yearly stats shows he is averaging 4 score involvements and 1.3 score launches per game both above average. People say he does not defend enough, that is not his role giv...

Yep, content providers like Mike (That Chapter) and Adrian (Coffee House Crime) who are two of the better ones IMO are sponsored by Nord.samuraisaint wrote: ↑Tue 07 May 2024 3:54pm A lot of the true crime and unsolved mysterys youtubers promote this.

Re: Mattaes Phillipou
My theory with young players like Philipou is that they are bigger, stronger and more talented than most other juniors, therefore they run around playing purely an attacking style. They then get a break in the big league and they play the same way, run and jump and catch a few grabs, and look amazin...

Re: Byrnes, Bonner Not up to it..
Both are depth at AFL level IMO. They have deficiencies that make it difficult for them to be best 22 at that level. However both can have an impact on their day. With Saints historically turning over 7-9 players per season my guess is they would both be in the mix to be delisted or survive on a one...

Not sure where you are getting your information from but the stats clearly demonstrate that violent crime has been falling over time in Australia. https://www.abs.gov.au/statistics/people/crime-and-justice/crime-victimisation/2021-22#personal-crime-summary I’ve even summarised the key parts nicely ...

Re: Darcy Wilson
Wilson is very impressive, reminds me of a better skilled version of Ed Langdon with his running capacity to cover the ground. Not saying he’s better than Langdon after 8 games. I think Wilson’s draft position potentially suffered as he was so professional and brilliantly prepared as a junior that r...

Re: Saints NGA article: Sam Linder
I really don’t see the point of having an NGA when you don’t have priority access to high end talent. The AFL are presently looking at changing the rules, either way I doubt any get selected before pick 40. Hopefully the rules change prior, but we will still need picks or points to grab them. Cam M...

Re: Higgins Alir incident
Just my opinion: Webster - penalty was appropriate for the action Windhager - deserved a week King - nothing in it, no penalty Higgins - How does Allir trying to kick the ball and put himself off balance not affect the penalty for Higgins. Absolute joke, there was no sling and I believe no intent. A...

Re: Paddy Dow to play for Sandy
Do posters on this site believe Dow is best 22?
I don't rate Dow highly, however assume he gets a run when fit due to the Crouch injury and our lack of midfield quality.
If we can recruit/ draft some midfield talent I think he becomes depth.
