Has JBT played for the Dragons recently?

Great initiative by the club. Let's hope at least one of them comes through.

That's awesome. Sandy Dragons are no slouches.

I don't know what sort of game they were talking about where he kicked 4 goals in a half.

It looks like he's played one game and had 3 disposals and given away 3 free kicks.

Looks a better prospect than Seb Ross already!

WHEN St Kilda’s latest international scholarship holder walked through the front door at Linen House Centre for the first time, he couldn’t believe his luck.

Giovanni Mountain-Silbery visited the club recently, having been signed in late January as the Saints second international scholarship holder after Joe Baker-Thomas last year.

The teenager spent a week at St Kilda learning the fundamentals of the game with two of the modern era’s most precise kicks – development coaches Paul Hudson and Lindsay Gilbee.

“I’ve spent a lot of time with the recruiters and coaches,” Mountain-Silbery told SAINTS.com.au.

“They’ve just taken me through basic skills… and pretty much just seeing what it’s like at the elite level.”

What's the deal with these NZ boys. Is there any expectation whatsoever of them ever pulling on a STK guernsey or is it mostly about a commercial venture into NZ ?

99% sure its the second option.

Yeh, I tend to agree
