Re: We didn't do enough

Agree that this is actually a positive. We are using the rookie draft to get in quality. I reckon we have rookied brilliantly again this year. Great way to address the depth issues we've had in the past.

Re: Sipposs Shoulder Injury

Lee has shown he has potential to be a good third forward option. Needs to improve his forward pressure though. Sippos's attributes are strong marking and a big kick. He has been poor in other areas, particularly tank and pressure. I don't really rate him but hope to be proven wrong. I do rate Lee t...

Re: Picks 21 and 22 options

Lots of good South Australians floating around in this draft that will be available with our picks. If we took Bampton and Neal-Bullen with 21-22 (along with Petracca at 1) I think that would be the basis of a seriously good midfield.

Re: What should St Kilda's philosophy be on Trading this yea

People suggesting we trade Jack must be crazy. Our best young mid by a long way. And we trade him out? I would be ropable.

And whispers, in regard to Jetta he was poor yesterday but was brilliant in the 12 gf.

Re: Saints homeward bound!!

Interesting! It relies on more money coming in from somewhere unspecified, and the Naphthine government getting re-elected. A lot of water to go under the bridge still there. But could be the making of our next 30 years just like Moorabbin was. The article mentioned that they believed both parties ...

Re: LTI Geary replaces Minchington

I reckon Minchington could be a really good small forward who could go on the ball. I really hope we don't get rid of him. He's got skill and nous, something that is sadly lacking from a number of our players. Then why has he hardly played? He isnt fit enough and doesnt get enough of the ball and l...

Re: We are crazy if we don't sign Chips for 2015

Con, you seem to think that the sky is going to fall in if we keep any older players. It's all well and good to want to fill the team with youth, but the problem is they're unproven and frankly a lot of them aren't good enough. Personally, I think if Fisher can stay fit it's a no brainer to keep him...

Re: Number 1 pick

I just don't want to rule out getting Petracca if he is going to be the next Judd or something. We could really use a great midfielder to compliment our young developing midfield. Grab a forward through FA later on once Roo retires.

Re: Maybe Burkie is onto something......

I was recently in Melbourne for the first time for years. Just for one weekend. I stayed with my friends in Newport and on Saturday afternoon wandered down to Spotswood to see ladder position #1 vs #2 in the WRFL. A crowd of about 500 maybe. Stood in front of the 'Woodsmen'. The Spotswood regulars....

Re: We probably won't get the No.1 Pick

Trading out the no.1 pick hasn't happened too often. And when it has it's made that club look pretty stupid in hindsight if my memory serves.

What a pick-up he's been. If Acres turns out to be anywhere near as good then our 2013 draft will be one to remember.

Re: This is reality...

6 games in NZ would be pretty out there. St Kilda has loads of supporters in Melbourne, we just haven't been good at retaining them. I mean, we've lost about 10,000 members over the last couple of years, when other sides have found ways to boost those numbers. I'm all for the NZ expansion, but I thi...

Re: We probably won't get the No.1 Pick

Watched some footage of McCartin recently. Now obviously as we all say, I'm no expert. But, I thought there were some warning signs. His kicking for goal looks very poor. He doesn't look that agile. Obviously a great mark, but in todays game it's just as important to be dominant at ground level as w...

Re: Young Saints in Sandi's best - Gr8 news!!

Interesting to see Dunell and Milera stand up again. These two are probably on the chopping block this year, but have consistently shown that they are too good for VFL. Will they both be de-listed, and if so will other clubs have a look at them?
