It’s just critiques

Calm down

It’s all just opinions- which are allowed

My take
Hunter is courageous and has ability, unlucky with injuries
Is far fitter this season- and will play another 100 games for StK

King needs a rocket
ATM he is not presenting hard enough at the footy
If he did he’d be an elite key forward - as it is, he’s too easy to defend - you just have to wrestle with him and body spoil

Phillipou needs some time in the VFL to play some midfield minutes

Btw

What does built for footy mean?

You just need to be fit as fk

Build is irrelevant- you can be Lachie Whitfield or Caleb Windsor if you can run
Or you can be Ollie Wines, Petracca or Dusty Martin if you’re explosive
Or Lachie Neale or Caleb Serong if you’re clean enough


Only knock on Hunts over the years - he’s not been at peak fitness

All 3 are overreactions to much smaller issues. But issues nonetheless.

Clark's injury run is of huge concern. Needs to get on the park for some consistency.
King's form could be physical, mental, or both. Needs a change of scenery (on the ground).
Pou needs a few individual wins to give himself some confidence. We are playing him in roles that are at or beyond his limit right now.

It's a fan forum, a safe haven to vent your frustration, give ill-informed opinion and banter with other Saints fans.

It gives superfans like Curly an avenue to rant over cheating umpires and AFL conspiracies, and 'it is noted' that the forum offers Killa an opportunity to hone his gold medal waffling skills to an audience of faunicated morons.

Perhaps don't take it too seriously, we are all here for the unrequited love of our Football team.

Perhaps it just the name .. but I reckon Hunter Clark is built like former Carlton legend Ken Hunter.

"Clark is not built for crash-bash footy, King should be traded for a top 5 pick, Pou will never make it."

Happy days.
It like we have our own Doris Stokes.
Take that show on the road.

He has been on my nose since this time last year.
Everyone must have been watching different games from me.
I suspect the club did not want to drop him in case he wanted to go back to South Australia.
Now he has re-signed they can give him 2 more years to develop.
He may never live up to his draft position but he will provide even less value than his future if he is traded.
St Kilda has to get the best they can out of him.


The more you know, the more you know you don't know.
When I was a young child, I knew that I knew so much about so much.
Now that I am old and know so much more, I know that I know so much about so little, and so little about so much.

I’m confident folks will eat their words on Pou. He’s very young, the youngest in his year
He may be confident / arrogant but he’s also dedicated, he was down at the club everyday during the offseason
If anything his issue may be applying too much pressure on himself
The magoos will be good for him as many have said

Yep, he says himself that he wants to keep learning
