Re: Simon Lethlean finished at St. Kilda effective immediately?
History shows the hard line works. Only with a list that is in the premiership window and with a group of mature match hardened and conditioned bodies. Ross failed in his only attempt at a rebuild and one of the greatest criticisms he was receiving in his final year at Freo was he only had a one-si...

Re: Simon Lethlean finished at St. Kilda effective immediately?
Is Ross toxic? Ross was a Captains pick by Bassett and that can create toxicity. It won’t be a problem if we are winning. Ross only answers to Bassett and doesn’t recognise anybody else in the organisation as being his master so that can be toxic also. That won’t be a problem either if we are winni...

Re: Dan Butler Ankle Setback
Just saw on the channel 7 news that Dan Butler is going in for another round of ankle surgery and will be setback in his prep for pre season. Haven’t seen it reported anywhere else. I broke my ankle and needed surgery and it takes a long time (3-6 months) to get it back to proper form and I was ver...

Re: Apart from the Saints, every Victorian team has a blockbuster......
.....What are we doing to rectify this? The AFL are A-Holes but we have also shot ourselves in the foot multiple times on this front. We have stuffed every venture we have tried. NZ is still available but I don't believe Western Springs has been rebuilt yet. We should still try and get that over th...

And Bassett caved into fan pressure and gave away the money earnt from playing games outside of Melbourne. Hopefully he's got a plan? He didn't seem to have a clue about what was happening at the club in his first 4 years in the job. What do you mean by "gave the money away from playing games ...

Re: Annual General Meeting set for 18th of Dec
I found it interesting that we only have 116 employees. Assuming that's including the players. Aren't they contracted to the AFL? Yup. It's one brand, one business and its all owned and controlled by the Vatican, aka the AFL. Clubs are merely parishes. Pretty accurate way of describing it. Although...

Re: Au Revoir Chris Toce
Allan Jeans clearly got more control at Hawthorn, than he could at St.Kilda. He always said that to be so. At the Save our Saints rally - he spoke about when he became senior coach - there was basically 3 clubs (u/19, reserves, and seniors) each with their own hierarchy inside the one club and that...

Ollie Hotton back in main training out of the rehab group. Him and Dow have seriously fast hands and are both very pacy from a standing start out of a stoppage. Much quicker than Steele and Crouch (Ross is fast in a straight line out the front) It might be a left footer thing but Riley Bonner and Ar...

I'm privy to some inside info, in development in the west. I have played with a lot of Aboriginal miners, who also came to Central Queensland to play football. Some of them work in football development. In the 80's before AFL and ever since, many were attracted to the money playing in resource rich...

Re: Training - Monday December 11
Pou tried to attack the ball last year, wasn't near it enough, but he will get his own regularly, eventually, and could break open tight games, but with him looking leaner but stronger, we might find him moving forward from the peripheral more, he can hit the sponsors boards from the 50, he can lea...

It really is crazy how young he is. Him and Michito have definitely been in the gym - their chests, shoulders and arms are noticeably bigger than 3 months agoshanegrambeau wrote: ↑Mon 11 Dec 2023 6:24pm It’s wierd
Pou seems like a veteran, having played every game last year. Compared to h new names.

A few of them then ran laps or pool. Higgins on a bike. - Darcy is going to be immense once his core gets stronger and he...
