Re: GWS- our Outlier?
Maybe analyse the timing of those games. Everybody was beating GWS early this year. Could be just dumb luck on timing. Let's see how we go this week. GWS were in awesome form when we beat them last year. Lie! They won by just 3, 3 & 8 points in the games after losing to us in 2017. In rd 12 the...

Re: Priority Pick
Koby Stevens early retirement due to extraordinary circumstances - is that grounds for a priority pick? 2nd or 3rd rounder - due to his age experience and that he was first choice 22? Ok I am deluded but is it worth enquiring? Have there been any other best 22 players that have retired at such an e...

Re: Priority Pick
Surely given two posters have indicated from ITK sources that the club believes our issues relate to our talent (or lack there of) - we will need to ask for a Priority Pick? How the hell will we get a priority pick when we almost made finals last 2 years? We have just had one bad season!!! If Brisb...

Re: Saints in box seat for McGovern
Just use our draft picks wisely. In McGovern's draft we took Tom Curren and Warrick Andreoli before J. McGovern was taken. Lethlean is so right to have tapped Elshaugh. Look at the opportunity cost just in that episode and the use of Pick 1 on Paddy. Makes me weep - the shocking incompetence. That ...

So a WA boy born and bred was going to leave a behemoth top 4 club who pull huge crowds and play in a brand new stadium to go across the country and play with the Saints.
Seriously FFS.
Parkey - you need to stop making these utterly ridiculous predictions.

Richo is still trying to copy the Dogs game plan from two years.
Meanwhile the Tiges are on Tigers 2.0 and the Giants are about to start unleashing a whole new burst.

Because there is no KPP defender included as his replacement

Re: Those Responsible.
As I have posted before, Greg "Wasteaway" and the Footy First movement was the biggest disaster to ever hit the Saints. Skated in to power when we were a force and then oversaw our destruction. Also fff-up his own business at the same time to make it two disasters at once. The guy was all...

Hopefully we do a community camp out in cattle country. South Gippsland maybe. Traralgon.
Imagine the photo opportunity.
Mav in dusty jeans. Rugged boots. No shirt. An akubra on top.
Phwoooar.
Richo will have dancing loins at the prospect of this.

Re: Those Responsible.
Don't forget that Collingwood were also good in 2011 and 2012.
They then didn't finish lower than 12th.

Re: Gameplan - Our Downfall
Pressure. We lacked it severely and thes Tiges game is built on it. Tiges had strong pressure in defence and offense. Boys against men. It's a simple game and game plans are rendered useless if you can't muscle up. The two teams playing last night are at polar opposite ends of the physicality and p...

Re: Start list management now please
Anyone think the integrity unit of the AFL might have issue with just throwing in every player from the feeder team just cause? Integrity of the selection. Is it a thing when you are 15th on the ladder with 5 rounds to go? If we are 15th then clearly the regulars haven't been performing brilliantly...

Re: Gameplan - Our Downfall
There is a strange mentality that if we occasionally get close to a top 8 team it is a good result.
Lind of like we accept that we are under 12s and the other teams are under 14s.
It is a troubling mentality.
