Carlisle is better than hunter and mckernan in any position on the field including ruck.
No matter how fast the game.

Re: 45 degree kick
The ump was too busy watching the guy on the mark rather calling play on when the guy with the ball moved sideways off his line ...... and of course the player on the mark moving 2 steps sideways did not effect the play at all given the player with the ball was 8m back Just an absolute horrific rul...

Re: Roberton considering retirement
No he wont just be paid out. He cannot fulfill his contract. His payment would a negotiated amount at best. Does anyone know the rule about this? If he retires due to a health issue, will he get paid out in full? In part? negotiate a new role at the club? If he retires for health issues, will his 2...

We do have 2 primary list places but it is only by not filling those that we have 3 rookie A spots free. So we can add 3 primary/rookie A players of whom only 2 can be primary. Then we can fill...

Re: Was this our worst ever trade?
the Everitt trade was not so bad.. got pick 6 and 22. Using 6 on Brooks was aweful and a disaster. Port used 6 on Salopek and then Mackie went at 7. Considering how poor our bottom couple of players were, if we get either of them in our 2009/2010 team and we win at least one flag. Salopek or Mackie ...

The NAB league will become u19 next year. A bunch of kids will play who have been unsighted for a year and who can be taken midseason. Who knows how many will come out and be good?

Re: List Size is 37, Cap down around 10%
Presumably we can move a couple players to the rookie list?
We should use at least two draft picks. Pick in the 60s may actually m over up quite a bit with many earlier picks used as points for academy players.

Re: This is how the Crouch deal will go down.......
Don't understand the fuss. There was nan open market for crouch. We paid the most. That salary we offered was within the range of a band 3 pick. A band 3 pick is the second round which is the range of picks 19-38, but slides after other comp to 23-42. So the open market valued Crouch at pick 23-41. ...

Re: Jack Higgins
third year players who are not best 22 do not cost much. Even fringe players in a premiership team.
Getting him at the right moment IMO. Clearly will cost more than Butler but cant see us paying too much.
Classic St. Kilda future 2nd perhaps?

Re: The Caldwell conundrum
If he has agreed to come, there is no need for either side to "announce" it prior to the trade period.
Maybe saints are just better at keeping secrets than some other teams?

Re: Delistings Confirmed
We must have a ruck lined up. We certainly will not go into next season with just Ryder and Marshall and I doubt we would delist Abbott until we were sure of a replacement, ie. if we did not have someone, we surely would have at least waited until after trade period to get someone before we delist him

Re: Changes for the Second Semi Final against Richmond Tigers
For the forced changes:
Webster for Long... would not lose anything there at all if Webster were at his best but it has been some time
Battle for Ryder... Marshall to ruck... sweating on Battles fitness
Roberton or Austin for Carlisle--- I really have no idea which one.

The fade out in the last quarter has proven costly.. I recon if we maintained our lead, Hannas and Paddy would have been on the bench during the final minutes rather than Paddy being out on the ground
