I know you said one positive JB but couldn't limit it to just one.

Hard tough footy.
The kids! Haven't been this pumped about the youth coming through for ages!
The 1%'s, something that has been lacking for a while.
The passion - The older blokes are enjoying the ride
Roo - this bloke is just unbelievable! Will be a sad day when he hangs up the boots :(
Hickey - great game, such an awkward kick for goal but I'll take it. Need to have Longer in this week against the 2 big boys from the west. Hopefully Hickey's injury isn't too bad!


Thats Mr. Smartarse to you

Rising Star nominations being achieved or even talked about is our biggest positive!

A non playing positive - the improvement to the club website (a big increase in videos/articles) and our positive approach to the media in general.

Young blokes who have come in and made an immediate impact. First time in years.


I started with nothing and I've got most of it left!

The positive for me is the "Passing of the Baton"

CJ no longer our #1 tagger, TC is

Lenny no longer the king of the midfield, Armo is (until Jack comes back)

Jack Newnes starting to do the job Goddard used to do (still a way to go)

Josh Saunders, Nathan Wright & TC starting to do the tough (not stupid) stuff that a bloke called Baker used to do.

Stealing a second POSITIVE;

Our midfield looks like its starting to show some depth to go with the talent. We,ve still got Jack Steven, Blake Acres & Jack Billings to add to that group over the coming weeks, months & years !!


NEW scarf signature (hopefully with correct spelling) will be here as soon as it arrives !!

The level of improvement from 2013 in almost every player currently in the team with the exception of those debuting and Roberton. Dempster is about the same.


I've never seen a bad St.Kilda player - that's just how they are.

Tackling.

Our top tacklers for the game were Curen, Saunders, Dunstan and Delaney. There's some grunt support developing in the kids. That's great.

Playing with a very pleasing tempo. Very pleasing.

Also, harmonies in the opening stanza of the team song greatly improved since the Watters era.

Loris' dressing down of the terrible twins seems to have had some short term effect!
That's a positive!

From seemingly having a poor list, all of a sudden its seems like there is incredible competition for a spot in the 22. And we've got several more years of getting high quality talent in.

PLAYERS PLEASE NOTE: The St Kilda train on the premiership platform is not taking passengers. I repeat, there is no room for passengers. You gotta earn your spot bro
