I agree with plugger above. The third tall player that we are after is a hard running lead up type player, not a forward that does his best work only out of the goal square. I'm all for 'hypotheticals'. I would trade for: R. O'Keefe (although he committed to sydney when no deal could be found last y...

A top player and if he was at the peak of his game ... yes

But he is too old, and as mentioned we have a talented young man in Lynch for this position.

i think ross will want a bit more of a look at steven and armitage. they will also be handy against the don's pace. they'll stay in imo.

i think there is a few posters hanging around the forum this afternoon waiting to find out the answer. i know i sure am!

ahh, its a great time to be a sainter.

the window is well and truely open for a while yet.

not many at 30yo, plenty of talent coming to their peak over the next couple of years like zac, gilbert, raf, and i still dont think we've seen the best of BJ.

add to that lynch, stanley, steven, armo.......

imo he's a big factor in our improved forward structure and pressure

some people aren't natural leaders or he might not be good at handling stress or he just has no desire to be the 'face' of a football club

or maybe we should just be quiet....

chb for sandy.

just finding it interesting that highly 'discussed' topics are being bought back up today by a certain poster.

as you stated joffa, maguire is not mobile enough to be playing the 'third tall' forward role that gwilt was in the team to play.

thought he played well on the weekend and looks like he is getting the chance to make a spot for the finals his.

he's prob better suited to an in & under role simular to that of luke ball.

top idea rodger.

like the idea of players who have played 100+ games. cost would be the big factor......

definately becoming more of a 'complete' player is our dal.

if he keeps this up he will have many more seasons representing the mighty saints!

What would the Muslim posters on this board think?

depends what their feelings towards christian's were?

Old Matty Goose,
CHB is where he wants to wander,
Had to ride back through the 2's
Hopeing someone would squander.

Ross' team selection came in,
And brought the goose back soon,
And mounting his back, we won the cup
And forever avoided the spoon.

now you guys are just taking the peirce.....

leaving race out of this...... raph was one of the best players for us in the finals last year. saints have a spot in the finals locked in. raph had his first game back in the side after a couple of weeks. it was against the best side in the comp of the past three years. it was a high pressure game,...

was hoping we could snare lovett at the end of last year as definately could have used his pace and skills. no chance of getting sylvia. he's a gun. melb would have to be crazy, but if he was at the tigers....... pierce would be an interesting one. havent seen alot of him but seems to have a good he...

yes where is the fox report.....his Loyal readers are missing him.

i with you on this plugger. raph held his spot on the weekend.
it was a great game and a great win. watch him rip apart the eagles this weekend.......

not being selected against Geelong tells me Goose is not in the st kilda plans this year i hope to be proven wrong goose not being selected tells me ross knows what he is doing, and that doesn't mean the goose is not in his plans. geelong are one of the top teams in the comp. they have mooney and h...

....and my little brother is 21. happy birthday to all!

Good post WW.
I'm just glad this club is starting to look more professional off-field.
Hopefully we'll be staying at the pointy end of the ladder for many seasons to come.

I just cant get past that 'look at moi' hair flick she constantly does on FC.... and I cant decide who is the least attractive out of her, hutchy and GT. All have good heads for radio. Hutchy definately takes out the least attractive. Closely followed by Caro, GT gets some bonus points for wearing ...

Always thought our female supporters were the most attractive! The new white scaves also add an extra 5%.

I would have to agree that the second line up looks stronger and maintains our flexability. The big 'if' is if Maguire can hold down CHB in a premiership winning side.

Was having a conversation with a bomber mate after the game. He couldn't believe how much bigger bodied all our players seemed to be compared to theirs. He felt this would be a problem for them in the finals. The point is, what would happen to that blistering pace should the players bulk up. Pace i...
