Re: Who would you take?

Well when i started to read the OP, i was thinking Watts is a GOP at worst and BJ+ type ceiling. Interesting to see other mentioning BJ too.

Take Watts for sure, for the above reason. Lee an unknown, but don't think that I'm not excited about him.

My dog's name is Kosi. As a puppy he would run around without watching where he was going and crash into walls.
Harvey did that too. That is why he now has a crooked tooth.

Re: Nicholas Winmar

Who is P66... could be a forum on its own the way you all bang on about him.

I'll go with 15-20 years my senior, played a bit of cricket over the years, stays involved with the local football & cricket clubs, works full-time, slightly overweight, and a fantastic angler.

Re: Hi Saintsational......again. Its been a long time!

Here here. I felt it was definitely the right decision to let Grant go in the end, as we just seemed to be going nowhere by then and I'd suggest the stuff between Grant and Rod was having a major effect, so something definitely had to give, but that doesn't take away from all the great stuff he did...

Re: Learn 2 words BJ

Maybe he didn't want to captain from the half forward line? We will never know his true reasons. No one not might ever know, except BJ himself, and only he will know that. :? I will go with a combination of: 1. more years 2. more money 3. more mid-field time 4. more young talent Rate these on a sca...

Good chance he would have been captaining the Saints next year had he stayed.

One reason - less $ over 3 years VS more $ over 4 years.

This thread is providing much off-season entertainment.
Finding out some past history, good to see DWOODROW still around in the depths of cyberspace.

Great to see Tommo on here. Looking at the response he's gotten, he will fit back in well!

Re: How do you think Riewoldt will go in 2013?

Still reckon there's another chapter or two in the Nick Riewoldt story yet. He is far from done. Could still play out of the goalsquare effectively for a few more years yet and hope he does. I can only remember one game where he played effectively from a deep forward position, and that was the game...

Re: Tom Lee 2013 Impact

What Tom Lee does and does well he attacks the ball in the air like theres no one around. Similar trait to one Justin Koschitzke. People on here have given him a bit of grief about hurting team mates in packs etc. We just need to make sure we manage his body a bit better IMO. Can't wait to see some...

Don't know if it's been mentioned already, but on SEN they had a brief interview with Montagna in which he said he had heard nothing about Fisher and had no idea what the article was about.

Re: HS Phantom Draft - Tanner Smith at #25, Ben Jacobs at #2

I like what Post offers. I was apprehensive at first (another Richmond reject), but speaking to some Rich supporters and watching a couple of games of his I've come around. Apparently he hasn’t nominated for the Draft. http://www.heraldsun.com.au/afl/localfooty/post-joins-reigning-premier/story-fn5...

Scott Watters said on 3AW the other night that we will probably use all our picks on 18 year olds. That would rule Jacobs out (probably) !!

Impossible to answer. Just means they have a higher cap. It can be used how ever they want. You could say Tommy Walsh is getting a portion, or that Josh Kennedy is getting the $800k.
