DOME Deal was Atrocious for years/ Phoney AFL
"Gill McLachlan failed to publicly recognise the debilitating effect a poor stadium deal at the Dome had on the Saints' capacity to reduce debt and initiate innovative strategies to push the club forward." (Age article) Since day one when the AFL in its' wisdom forced the Saints away from ...

Room For Growth
Hey 45th. I'm allowing for some growth in this saintly crew & would be surprised if the blues leap-frogged us on the ladder. I managed to see nada of the 1st. prac game but am glad Armo got through ok & just might be a regular contender once again in the middle. Paddy clocking up more game-t...

Gary Lyon re Forward Structure
A few sainters probably heard G. Lyon discussing the Saints fwd. structure this morning (Thur) on SEN. Well he carried on a bit about the inherent problem of St.Kilda having 4 big fellas up front - I took that to mean available, Paddy, Bruchie, Battle & Members. Having all of them in contention ...

Freeman v's scar tissue
Very disappointing for the Free man.
I'm still hoping he gets a bit of luck going his way.
All the best of luck to Nathan.

Since Jack Steele arrived @ Moorabbin (I like saying Moorabbin by the way) I could detect a surge of enthusiasm in myself. Same thing happened when I first noticed what I took for a real serious attitude on the face of a young Seb Ross. Ok it could have been wishful thinking but I couldn't remember ...

'Chips' & 'Sizzler' both deserve a tick
That's right saynta S.Fisher was 'Chips'
Another one I was having trouble remembering yesterday was 'Sizzler'
'Sizzler' for Steven Sziller.
- apparently Tom Hafey gets the recognition for this one by miss-pronouncing Sziller
& getting 'Sizzler'

Welcome to the Red, Black & White Hunter.
I was hoping Clarke would be one of our picks @ 7 or 8.
All the best for pre-season& beyond H.C.
& hoping you get a gig in the firsts fairly soon.

Regarding potential nick names:
'Coffee' works for me.
It suggests energy
& where it really counts: powering the millions of human minds hooked on the stuff.
Things are heatin up @ St.K !

Spot on Ace, seconded
The 'E' is silent & so Hunter's family name is pronounced & sounds exactly like Clark. Hopefully if he's to be identified by a future nick name it will be a bit more in inventive than Clark 'EE'' Sainters can do better than this. I used to cringe @ the nick-name given to Ben McEvoy 'Big Ben'...

I remember being hopeful that Arryn would make it through to become a regular @ St.K.
It was disappointing that he went off the radar so to speak but now he has a whole new adventure before him.
Good luck Arryn Siposs.

Richo the thinker - Yes thank you
Seconded. I'd much prefer a genuine thinker and straight A student of the game than an entertainer.
The players will keep us happy if they're entertaining in the right way.
Hoping AR has his best year yet.
. . . and he's just a nice guy - plenty enough entertainment there for me.

The rare & dizzy heights of having 2 top 10 picks
I think the enthusiasm, hope & intrigue surrounding picks 7 & 8 has many of us scouring through the list of players from roughly 5 to 10 and mounting a case for each one. On one level I'm enjoying the position our club is finding itself in, it's been a decade & a half since we experience...

Picks 7 & 8 are critical to positive momentum
Stating the obvious I know. It's been 16 years I believe since the Saints had 2 picks within the top 10 in a National Draft. This rare situation our drafting brains trust find themselves in will either produce a very significant injection of positive momentum into this young group or it may deliver ...
