Re: Billings Mackenzie Jones........
The conditions on Saturday night were dreadful for 3 quarters. The saints dont play outside enough (eg under the roof) and they looked at sea under the conditions. The conditions didnt suit the talls at all, however they could have done more structurally to bring the ball to ground. The conditions d...

Re: Do we need a tagging midfielder?
I hope Windy doesn't become the new Luke Ball.
Unloved and under utilised by Ross Lyon.
Tagging / run with is a great way of learning the midfield role. Done right with good balance it can be encorporated into a team defence. Especially against the big possession players.

Re: Winning the worst game of footbal in 20 years.
We won .... did what needed to be done. However against nearly (except maybe WC ) it would have been a different story. Quarter Time against Port Adelaide something changed. Not sure what it was, but the saints have not played well since. Mid season slump coming unless they can turn it around (thank...

Re: Should we playing Higgins, Gresham and Butler?
They are all too similar. I have always maintained that Higgins and Butler are doing the job of 1 player. They seem to get in each others way. Gresh is the biggest disappointment. He is good, but needs to be more versatile. It is going to be crowded in that forward line. Membrey, King, Caminiti, Owe...

Re: Does king walk straight in?
Wouldn't surprise me if he came back in. A mistake in my opinion.
They rushed back Jack Steele too quick (he is ok now)
But he had a preseason behind him
They rushed back Membery .. hasn't worked
King will need a hit out. He is only just back to practice.

Re: Nick Coffield - injured, again 🙄
Players traditionally come back from an ACL pretty ordinary in their first year. By the second year and a good pre season they are back and flying. Players don't usuallt have these sorts of injuries.... However it might just give him time to sort everything out and get his body back 100%. His overal...

Re: Our team will look vastly different
We have a lot of kids playing. They will get tired and sore and will need rests. They will be up and down in their development enthusiasm and impact. It is just the nature of learning the game. We couldn't take the number of kids we have playing into the finals. The bigger bodies will rag doll them....

Re: Cordy what can we say.
He is never going to be a player to build a team around. However he is exactly what stkilda need with their injury list. Honest hard toiler that can play at either end of the ground. Conditions didn't suit him ( wet and slippery) on Saturday night. Experienced platers without injury are a difficult ...

Re: The Ben Long Deal
If GC want to pay him 600k then they can give up pick 25. I don't think he's worth either. Are they really offering $600k for Long ..... Wow they are desperate. They are giving away pick 7 for foolish contracting ..... dont they need a salary cap dump? They couldnt use it all on Long ... surely?

Re: The Ben Long Deal
Ben Long is an average footballer.
However his mongrel is worth ever cent. The ability to make others second guess, pause or hesitate is understated in todays game. Strong around the ball.
It makes him a far better player (or team inclusion) than his stats suggest.

Re: Zaine Cordy? Really?
My issue as always. What does our next Premiership team look like? The cost is in opportunity for salary and position on the list. At 25 he is at his best. It is unlikely there is much upside and he would have had plenty of opportunity at Bulldogs. Hopefully the Saints have worked out who they are t...

Re: De Goey offered 5 years from the Pies .
Media beat up over a nothing incident.
Should have called DeG in and told him to pull his head in. Watch what is posted on the internet
Performed the Song and Dance to settle the Twit-ter crew.
Moved on.
Unless there is other major issues the clauses that have been imposed seem ridiculous.

They demand how the ball is delivered, where it is delivered and how the forward line operates. They impose themselves on the team, opposition and game. King does it at...
