Re: What’s the latest on Jack Steven?

I can't believe some on here that just take media comment as gospel. I believe the following comment made on BF by a respected moderator, is much closer to the actual situation. Comment includes Bruce situation as well. I will be glad when the fantasy trade period ends and the real stuff begins nex...

Re: What’s the latest on Jack Steven?

Why do we need to clear cap space Who the F*** are we paying? Richmond Martin, Rance, Lynch, Cotchin, Reiwoldt, Prestia, Grimes are all better than our best player And they are supposedly under the cap! We clear Steven and Bruce We should have a free Million to spend! More BS from Barrett, if I'm n...

Re: What’s the latest on Jack Steven?

Interesting trade scenario forming...will Kelly out, and Gaz possibly looking to retire (must admit, I reckon he'll keep going if its up to him) and out of the midfield regardless, the Cats 'want' to land Steven begins to look like a 'need'. Kelly being out of contract, the Worst Coast are in the bo...

Regrettably, the Saints look likely to be the losers in this whole matter. I can see it coming, yes, but we'll only be losers if we chose to be...he's a contracted player, if he sits the year out at this point of his career it will cost him more than it will cost us.

Absolutely ridiculous, a complete reset if the entire Sun's debacle which has been of their own making...I wonder if Eddie will make a noise now? We're really going to have to take some risks over the next few trade periods to get back into this, or we'll be swapping spots with the Sun's. :x

A new Big Footy poster that claims some inside knowledge reckons we are still trying to trade our Carlisle this year and he'll be gone if a good deal can be raised. Said we are trying to "work out who's been naughty and who's been nice". He says he won't see out his contract or at least w...

Re: No Saints players suspended in 2019

Technically...Nathan Brown was suspended during the season, missing the first round.

The hard units were what attracted me to the team when I was a kid...we weren't winning too many games, but didn't lose too many fights either. The team showed some character if nothing else.

Bruce, an experienced Key Forward that can kick 50 goals a season & rotate through the ruck - worth only a second round pick??? What the..... Agree...very annoying to see the club publicly selling his worth short to our detriment. No one can shoot themselves in the foot better than our club. :x
