Re: Oh When The Saints Should Tell Richo He’s Done - From The Age

As soon as it is mathematically impossible we should announce we are moving on and he is moving out.
He’s had more than a fair go at it.

Re: Bennell

Disagree.
The only reason to get him would be for every other club’s amusement. Oh, and to give Hanners someone to sit next to in the stands.

Me too. I had no idea he had coached that long in comparison to some of our other coaches,
To think Thommo, Sheldon and Alves were forced out but Richo has been given chance after chance.

Re: Fehring's monster torp.

I still remember that kick like it just happened minutes ago. It is one of my clearest StKilda footy memories. Along with times like when as a kid at the Lakeside oval I watched Barks just soar straight up, up and up for the highest speccie I have ever seen first hand. Same. Saw both of those too a...

Re: Wooden Spoon or 17th in 2019

Bottom 4 for sure and 17th entirely plausible. Gold Coast and Carlton will be cellar dwellars too. Carlton seem to have done ok in the draft so would expect improvement from them. Lions are well coached and have a couple of good big men. There is not much between the bottom 5 sides Suns don't have ...

Re: Hickey replacement?

We'll go with Marshall and Pearce all year. I quite liked Hickey, but really the other two are far better long term options. Honestly, they were both better in the short term last year too. I'd bet that the club would have traded Longer rather than Hickey - but I don't think anyone would have taken...

Re: MINCHINGTON NOT OFFERED NEW CONTRACT

Tad unlucky as cut down by injuries and couldn’t really get a decent run at it. Certainly showed some promise but after 7 seasons he’s not got the runs on the board to say he deserves another contract. Brutal business but fair enough decision I think.
Thanks Minch.

Re: Our 1st round pick! For Hannebery ?

Ridiculous.
Sure fire way to see us spend additional years at the bootom of the ladder.
Two years ago he was probably worth it given where we were and where he was at.
Now given where we are and where he is at it's a simple "No!"

If he can be payed out for 3 months with over 2 years remaining what is the point of a contract?
