Re: Simon Lethlean finished at St. Kilda effective immediately?

Thank God! Only captains picks - Dan Hanneberry, Brad Hill and Max King Max is a good player but even money at this stage as the other option was Rozee who is a superstar. Still to play out how well Max turns out as it's still potential. Brad Hill - not sure about this one. Overall, doesn't look lik...

Re: Best teams

Only for those teams, bring a Howard type in.

There aren't too many teams with so many talls.

In the end, most inside 50s are rebounded. So, it will be like having a weapon on the rebound.

Re: Riley Bonner picked up by Saints in pre-season draft

Just looking at his highlights:- Some against Sydney A really good one against Saints on Marvel - not sure but I think it was at a point the game was in the dead rubber zone A lot of them against North Overall, good highlights. He just needs to replicate against contending teams for that year. Other...

Re: Lance Collard

West Coast would be fuming. We probably offered to trade them for a future 2nd and they refused. You would have thought they would have offered something worthwhile if they wanted him now. Yeah... unfortunately, they couldn't trade out Harley Reid straight back out after picking him at #1 :lol:

Re: Dow in Coffield out

I feel more certain that Dow will work well. Given the 10th on clearance ladder, his addition should do well.


Cofffield... I wasn't sure about him. Interceptor at best? I thought he used to lose too many 1 on 1s. But yeah, that was 2-3 years ago. It'll be interesting to see how he goes.

Re: Jade Moneybags

I love some of Jade's skills. With his back to the goals, he could kick diagonally backwards (using side/bottom of the shoe) while falling down and kick a goal. It's a neat trick, and I don't see many others doing it. When he started, he was a small forward with some midfield skills. His midfield ga...

Re: Billings wants out

Probably more likely to go at the end of 2024, if there is any interest. 1 year contract is easier to manage than 2.

Re: North Melbourne's compensation

I am repeating myself here

Expansion clubs take some cream
Big clubs take all the free agents / expansion club leavers
Bottomers like North take the remaining top players.

Leaves very little for teams in the middle.

Also, losing out soon to Tassie draft concessions.

Re: Dullbogs sniffing around Coffield

Personally, I don’t mind losing Coffield but at the end of 2024, when he may have some value. Right now, he’s not worth anything.

Re: Post-match analysis

All I got was that GWS, GC etc have too many good players. The big clubs have facilities and attract all big FAs. North have the wooden spoon/ pick 1 market all covered. Saints have the middle path available only to be a step ladder for the other clubs. I’ll just continue to enjoy the games which Sa...

Dunstan ACL

I know a few people don’t want to talk about him. However, just read that he’s done his ACL last week. That means even 2024 is a write off for him even if it was just VFL.

Re: Rd 23 Match thread vs Geelong

Saints beat Geelong
