Re: Changes v Lions

Surprised Hunter Clark doesn’t play on ball then bring in Savage or Roberton.

Does anyone have intel on how Roberton is going ? Must be close

Re: Shane Savage

Kicked 2 points .. 2 goals and he has a v good game. Agree with comments does get the ball and kick it anywhere ... the next generation (Paton, Coffield, Clark) come off half back and lower their eyes.

Roberton

Any word how is progressing ? Heard a few weeks back that it was match fitness holding him back.

Time out of game has no doubt caught up with him. Love to see him back at some stage. Keen to know how he is going ...if any inside word ?

Re: March series lessons.

There is a little more to the Bruce argument. Bruce is all about Bruce was the internal word. He helped clear cap space (B King in the pipe) and let’s remember Bruce did struggle the very best backs. I’d still rather have him .. but there are a few reasons within.

You would think the interest is based on his 77% / 78% disposal efficiency last two years.

Re: Go Sainters

All said. We. We had to have a crack and make some changes. The club has done that. Bruce was a good player but did struggle against the best opposition and did here some negatives. He was on good coin too. Howard is 4 years younger and could be better long term. It will be painful to watch Jack Ste...

Loved the Cornes reaction to Howard pick up. He was filthy and said Port Adelaide botched up. Given up a potential All Australian. Hope it works out.

What are we hearing re Bruce deal ? Not a lot in media.

Would like to keep ....dangerous forward line with him, King, Membrey and perhaps Battle.

Re: Young expects deal to St Kilda is almost done- to be lodged Tues

This might make Acres pull his finger out, knowing there was little interest in him. He needs to go to the Robert Harvey school of running and get his body in better shape. Potential but needs to work harder.

Re: Young expects deal to st Kilda is almost done- to be lodged Tues

If we give up 10 and future to Freo, surely they send back pick 22. The deal seems a little heavy based on age at 26? There needs to be a sweetener.

King signs at GC = Bruce stays ?

You would think now that Ben King has re-signed at GC that we now got to sign up Bruce for 1-3 years extra ?

With McCartin in limbo it leaves Max King, Membrey with Marshall / Ryder.

Or do we bite bullet for Howard ? Don’t know enough about this bloke.

Re: TRADE: Saints picks 6 & 59 for Giants 12 & 18

I reckon we will go 12,18 to Freo in exchange for Freo pick 27 which goes to Sydney for Jones.

Re: Dan Butler

Worthy late pick. You also get access to Richmond IP. Our forward pressure is not great. The 1%’s and holding a position within a system is what this guy would bring. We have small forwards in Long and Lonie but how good they are in holding ball in is questionable?? Whereas this bloke has proven tha...

Re: What’s the latest on Jack Steven?

Well said Bigred

Bruce kicks 36 and 5th most contested marks at CHF aid worth pick 31 according to press, yet Papley who kicks 37 goals in he SCG is worth pick 8.

It’s Bruce and a player for mine. Lin Jong or maybe Toby McClean.

McCartin

Anyone heard any rumours? You would think the club needs to come out with a statement at some stage soon. I know he has a 2020 contract, however if unable to play is there a negotiation to put this to bed.
