I'm wondering when other teams are going to work out that you have to take Kosi's run away when going for a mark. Hopefully never. Has to lift the team when he drags in those marks or splits the packs and Milney runs onto it. If he can improve his one on one work I reckon he'd be the most dangerous ...

With Kosi flying for his marks with so much confidence, he's dragging 2 and 3 opposition defenders into the air with him. This makes Milne even more dangerous as there are more crumbs than ever now. He's almost as important to our Fwd line as Rooey and Kosi I reckon. In the last 18 months he has imp...

If this incident had occurred within five metres of the ball, would a free kick have been paid? If so, what for? Clash of heads? Can't read that one in the book and isn't that what occurred with Kosi and Gia? I agree completely. Surely this is relevent to what happened. To me the biggest issue was ...

Looking at it another way. Saints are 4 games plus massive percentage clear of doggies. that's as good as 5 games. Means in the last 11 games we would have to win a minimum of 6 out of our last 11 to maintain top 2 as the doggies have to make up 5 games! AND that's assuming the doggies win their las...

I reckon Blake could be in a bit of trouble this week - purely for team balance reasons. Just don't reckon we can keep playing Zac, Max and Blake on the same line. The club has a bit of a nice dilemma in that Max and Zac would normally take the same type of player. Max will probably get Fev, but we ...

Will be very interested if all these 'injured' kangaroo players are left out of their team next week. Particularly Simpson and Wells who Laidley appears to be inferring shouldn't have been on the ground. If Simpson had a bona fide calf injury and Wells a strained groin, you'd think they wouldn't com...

I actually loved it. It was overcast and very little wind with very little rain - perfect conditions for footy :wink: . It is a winter sport after all. I would prefer they closed the roof when it's bright sunshine as it's impossible to see on one side of the ground, and the players appear blinded by...

I'm curious as to why some posters are so keen to get goose back into the team - particularly in place of Gwilt? Gwilt's no superstar, but he provides a bit more mobility than goose. I would love to see Gwilt kick the ball long to advantage b/c he's a beautiful kick, rather than chip it 15m sideways...

One thing I learnt over time, is that it's definitely a personal choice. Some like Plugger will shrug their shoulders and follow their club wherever they go. That's fine. Others will feel betrayed or bitter. Personally I reckon the stage of your life has a big bearing. I was 26years old when the roy...

I liked the way we lifted a cog when we needed to in the third quarter (Riewoldt especially) Kept them at arms length once we had the game in control. In years gone by it would have turned into a real battle similar to the many games we played at Tassie. Many Freo and port games come to mind in this...

I agree Everton - but how many members will North have next year and the year after? I know the old Fitzroy would have been lucky to have more than 5000 13 years ago. I know b/c my mum was the membership lady and she knew almost every single member by name :D If the north people are fair dinkum (and...

As a previous barracker for the roys, and now a 11 year member of the saints I feel qualified to give an opinion. A more passionate Fitzroy family you couldn't meet. We went EVERY week and had the same spot on the fence at the Junction Oval, then Victoria Park, then Princes Park. My mum even worked ...
