Re: I’ve just received word............

If that decision really has been made, then we should make the change immediately. No coaches tenure should rest on a single result - winning or losing vs the GC doesnt make a difference if Richo is the right man to lead our club forward. Either he is, or he isnt, and this weekend's game means no mo...

Re: Contracts for Billings, Roma, Dunstan

3 year extension for Roma is done. He deserves every cent, his output this year for a kid who’s played 20 games has been nothing short of remarkable.

Re: If you're wondering why we're in China ...

You need to remember who is saying this. Gill is required to put a positive spin on this. At no point did he say “EACH”!!!! Us and Port probably do make $1M, together, and cause it’s Kochie’s baby, I reckon the split is probably 80/20. Here’s an idea, if Port are so keen to play up there - we sell o...

Re: Lukey Dunstan

He was our best when the Blues had the run of play (in the first, and the last quarters). Not sure where this penetrating kick has come from, but he roosted a couple into the forward line in the first quarter that were Aussie Jones/Goddard like. Didn’t hit a target, but that doesn’t matter with our ...

Re: Josh Battle and Carlilse

Happy to keep Battle’s role nice and simple at this point, and leave him picking up the 2nd key tall (with Brown taking the No. 1) as he gains more experience down back and learns the craft. He’ll still take intercept marks because he naturally makes good position in the contest, but the threat is h...

Re: What kind of Carlton do you expect?

Carlton aren't playing out of form, they are just not that good. Like some of our "supporters", I reckon there's plenty of Carlton fans hoping they get flogged so Bolton gets the flick. They can try as hard as they like, as long as we weather the storm early, we should be OK. If we're not ...

Re: VFL Rd 2 - Sandy vs Box Hill, Sun 14th

That jumper is putrid. Just remove the SANDY text and the blue cuffs and it should be good to go. We're bankrolling the joint - they'd be playing C-grade Ammos if we'd bailed on them and ran our own VFL side. If they want the cash to keep coming, wear the Saints jumper, with their sponsors and the V...

Re: Head clash

They paid the free kick for holding the man, right??

If so, then perfectly justified, Battle wrapped him up and took him to ground, expecting him to take possession of the ball. The fact that Fyfe was in a coma at the time is irrelevant.

Yes. I reckon he might have spent the first quarter on the pine, not sighted at all. But after that seemed to bob up all over the place.

Billings not so much though - he seemed to be parked in the front half most of the afternoon.

Re: JLT1 Match Thread - Saints v Kangas

I know it seems a bit strange because he was out of the game 10 mins in, but geez Lewie looked good. He was strong in the ruck contests, and showed intent once the ball hit the deck. Looks to have finally filled out a bit too.

Re: Kayo Streaming

I’ve got cable (not NBN) at home, and apart from the Kayo app freezing a couple of times thru the game, mine worked fine.

I was streaming the fox footy channel, not just watching the event, if that makes a difference??
