Re: Trevor Barker Award

I think it is usually made up from the various coaches who vote on their top ten players from maybe 10-1 on each match.

Well something like that, from memory.

Re: ‘66 Norm Smith

I was only 3 years old in 1966, but my Dad who was there always said to me we would not have won but for Verdun Howell. Great a player as he was, Verdun was OK but nothing special in the big game. Tuddy towelled him up in the Second-semi kicking 7 goals. Tuddy kicked three in the GF but was kept in...

Re: Brownlow. Did the Umps get it Right?

And the winner got 3 votes for a seven-kick game. Was that the game against GWS where Charlie Cameron kicked 7 goals? Yep. Interesting to compare the winner's year (playing mid-field) with that of Sinclair- averages per games played. Fantasy points Sinc 102.1 (elite); Neale 95 (abv av) Disposals Si...

Brownlow. Did the Umps get it Right?

Neale ,the winner didn't even make All Australian. Jack Steele won 3 BOG votes and three 2nd best votes. I don't think many Saints fans saw that! Sinclair, although polling well with 21 votes from 10 games, did not receive a vote round v GWS although having 37 disposals, 733 metres gained and two go...

I'm not a fan of umpire #2 Nick Foot
I am not a fan of Nick Foot either as many on here would know, but his decisions over the last season or two have at least been a bit more balanced if still erratic.

Fingers crossed he is at least fair this Saturday

Gerard Whateley has spent a lot of time last 2 nights on AFL 360 lobbying VERY hard for Bedford to be cleared.

I presume he has been doing the same thing on SEN. Will not let it go.

Re: EX-SAINTS OF THE LAST DECADE AT OTHER CLUBS

Agree with all of this.

Perhaps to me the biggest mistake was giving Acres away (along with 2 high draft picks).

He obviously to me had up side to come.

Also Dal Santo huge mistake.

Sinclair Rated number 1 by Champion Data for 2023

Jack Sinclair has topped the ranking for the second season in a row with Champion data. To quote “It’s his ball use that just completely sets him apart.” Let's just hope that the umpires start to notice him more when casting Brownlow votes this year. Yes I have backed him again. Last year at 1000-1,...

All three deserving as is NAS but unlikely they name three Saints half-backs.

Re: Final V GWS Friday night (Sportsbet said) but now Saturday 3.20pm

I'm not sure that I would put it in terms of the AFL screwing us. But I do think it's odd that 6 of the teams playing finals could have had games at their home ground (although Sydney and the Giants won't because of where they finished) and 2 (Carlton and us) can't. Kardinia Park is clearly too sma...

Re: That's a win in my book

If we had lost by another 10 points or more we would be playing GWS in Sydney this week, so from a ladder point of view, almost as good as a win.

although if Carlton still lose, we would be playing Sydney instead of GWS at the MCG

Last week's wrong decision by the goal umpire in Adelaide is really looking bad for us now.

It is going to cost us a home final.

So nothing to get too bothered about IMO. TBH, I reckon GWS is the team I'd be least keen on us having to play ATM.
Not going to happen.

GWS Would Need to Win by 7 Goals

Saints will stay clear of GWS provided they don't win by more than seven goals against Carlton following the Saints 12 point loss today.

This seems unlikely.
