Re: McCartin

Curly Give it a rest, seriously And if clubs did have him 1 or 2 Yes, they had it wrong. DeGoey, Brayshaw, Moore, Lever, Heeney, Wright ... in hindsight were easily better picks. I do realise Heeney and Moore were bid players, but we didn’t bid on them. As everyone knows, I had Christian at #1 Whic...

Re: McCartin

So typical isnt it? The best talented player happens to have diabetes. We pick him cause he was the best available but of course it doesnt work out. Why us every f****** time. There's probably two very good books in this 1. About the story of Paddy McCartin, and 2. Why it keeps happening to us :) I...

Re: Anyone watch this?

Thanks jaxons.

We have had our fair share of 100+ goal seasons at the Saints, none were ever so costly as this one

By the way, is Fraser keeping fit? and has he got anything on over say, the next couple of years?

Re: Bruce Requests trade to Dogs

Let's consider a glass half full situation scenario: Bruce going creates a situation that wouldn't have happened otherwise. Marshall plays mostly in the forward line and kills it. Plausible? Or glass half empty, Marshall gets a year ending injury and a 32 year old Ryder has to carry ruck and forwar...

Re: Plenty of changes still to come

The main thing is that the Saints contest finals and get our 2nd flag. I really don't care who comes and goes after 6 years of going exactly nowhere as a club. Time for a new direction, new faces, and hopefully a much improved Saints in 2020. Spert, I'm with you here. No room for sentiment, so long...

Re: LENNY HAYES

If I was Lenny, I’d probably prefer to coach a star studded midfield in a premiership team, than a poor midfield in a bottom 4 team. Good thing you're not Lenny! So it's sorted then, Lenny to the Saints in 2020 There are eight other teams in Melbourne! Sorry Bernard, wasn't being a smart arse :)

Re: Josh Bruce to be traded?

Bruce gets run under the footy not unlike Richo used to, or misjudges his marks. Don't get me wrong, I want to keep Bruce, but the way we deliver the footy is more suited to Max King than him.

In reality, Bruce shows plenty but can be very frustrating also. Maybe it is time for change?

Gonna be a bit hard to demand a quality pick for a player that barely played this year. I just don't get this 4 best and fairest, a consistently elite player for about 5 years and not coming from a major injury. Easily has 4-5 years in him and could be the difference between a flag for them or not ...

It s not hysteria, it is the strong suspicion that come Round 1 Bruce will be at the Dogs and Ryder will be filling in a as key forward, OR that we will play top heavy with one less mid. What I like least about it is that we're basically doing the same thing that didn't work at Port this year. They...
