What a brilliant draft - well done Saints!

[SaintPav]

What I do know is that Brett was the catalyst for a focus on junior development

And that he challenged our junior players to put pressure on, and surpass the older players

And to forge the future of St Kilda FC

Even with Steele, the challenge was you are good enough to write your own reputation, not tag

That challenge was accepted

Would we have replicated 2021 and focussed on the Draft in 2022?

The answer was in 2021 and Wanganeen-Milera, Windhager, Owens, Adams and Peris

Nothing has changed in regards strategy

Gallagher remains as List Manager - and very competent

Lucky we gave Kent a game in round 22 then..

Strange decision.

Matt Maguire was never gifted a 100th game.

Roy Cazaly played 99 games for St Kilda though he went on to play a further 68 games with South.

Josh Bruce also played 99 games for the Saints.

Aaron Hamill finished 2 games short of his century of games.

Not that it means anything but I’m pretty sure Cazaly played 99 games with both us and South.

True. Great stat.

I was looking at the goals column on my phone.

Check twice, post once, factually.

Bob Murray brilliance.

Big deal.

Cazaly played 99 games for the Saints so not totally incorrect and the point remains.

You have now tried to troll me on 3 occasions with smart arse and inane responses.

Who’s to say he didn’t earn his spot?

How was he going in the twos?

I don’t like gifting games to kids - they need to learn how to earn a spot in the side

Others like Bytel and Byrnes were doing better than Kent in the VFL.

You’re just being argumentative for the sake of it.

Posting misinformation is a big deal Spav.

[SaintPav]

Nah, you’re just trolling me.

I believe they play a different position to Kent?

Bytel and Byrnes found a spot difficult because of the form of Steele, Crouch and Ross - the latter didn’t miss a game

Kent may have been gifted his 100th

It was in a nothing game

[SaintPav]

Not a nothing game for a young player trying to keep their position on the list.
