Re: Trade back into the Superdraft!!!!!

We need to trade in a couple of senior respected players. Sloane and maybe a finished warrior like a hodge. We need a couple to set the standard. Who do we have now for our kids to look up to, Geary...? As hard as he tries , can't say he screams elite. Pay overs for a veteran in last year or two. We...

Re: Can anyone remember a more bleak outlook than now ?

No That's why I went on a round the world trip mid last year and still on it. It's hard to listen to what's taken place, but I called it early last year.

When was the last time the second most inexperienced list made the finals?

This is overlooked. Don't fool yourselves, we are still in the rebuild phase going on that stat. It's been a very very long rebuild. Shows how bad our drafting was for 6-7 years as we have very little in the 26+ bracket

Re: Why oh why, do the Saints love to BOMB?

I was thinking the same myself. It might be a hangover from Rooey running in and taking contested marks on a regular basis. His presence took focus away from the overall ineffectiveness of the tactic. Perhaps the coach believes Paddy will fill that void and take contested marks inside 50? It is Pad...

Re: Second best FF and CHF

Stewart Loewe is the most underrated player in the history of the game.
Continually tore games to shreds, and then busted them open late with what was the most incredible pack/contesting marking you’ll ever see in 20/80 contests. He was taken for granted. Was a freak

Jordan McMahon kicks the goal after the siren in 2009 he cost Richmond picks 1 and 2.
Melbourne took Scully and Trengrove.
Richmond was left with Dustin Martin....
How did that end up again?

I still don't get McCartin. What is he actually good at? Even his under age highlights look average. Been thinking the same thing.
