The original plan though was to play in new facilities at Moorabbin. I'll be eternally disappointed that that didn't eventuate. From a selfish point of view, I can't see myself getting down to Seaford more than once every couple of years, for it's just too far away. U serious? Its not like you need...

Not 100% sure all of the criticism for Roo is justified. I mean, look at the delivery to him, we were sitting it on top of his head. Or kicking it too short to him on the half volley, it was the worst display of kicking I have seen from us for years. Then look at the fwd structures, how many times w...

How many here after Goddard kicked that goal had tears welling up in their eyes thinking we we're going to win. I'll cry 100 more times if we win than if we lose. That was the point where I started to let myself believe and dream that we might just win it!!! Thought to myself, holy cr@p this might ...

To clear two things up from reading this thread. 1) Ball went for pick 30 or whatever because he comprimised the draft, refused to speak to Melbourne and other teams who were interested. I still believe he would have gone in the teens with Melbourne's 3rd or 4th pick had he met with them and chosen ...

Recruiting in the past has been somewhat 'safe'. We got Ball over Judd, no doubt because Ball was a safe bet and Judd had suspect shoulders. I don't know anything about the Thomas/Butters lovechild scenario so wont comment on that. We didn't go Cousins as he was too risky but then people complain as...

Tambling has improved enormously - has worked hard. He is quick, can kick a goal and his skills are way above many of our blokes. If we orchestrate a trade for him - I would be ok with that. If not - happy for us to plumb the depth of the draft looking for teenagers How do we pay him. He would want...

I'm pretty loud and fanatical at the best of times at Saints games. I left at 3/4 time, the pain of last year was unbearable and I admired Geelong at the time.

Jase can play on Brown, more mobile than Mac obviously. The term 'tag' has been used very loosely, he's a good match up for him, allowing us to get in another smaller type defender into the side in Bakes, but Blake won't be 'tagging' Brown!! I remember the game where he kicked 3 in 5 minutes against...

I love the insight after 5 seconds of a camera being on him. But yes, agreed because we know his personality.

I loved Zac's performance on Saturday night, he was incredible. Since he has come back from a spell, sorry, his 'injury', he has been great.

Excellent post, was thinking this today. Ben has been much improved this year and can mark and kick goals - which makes him a better in than King, in my view.

Geary is unlucky, he actually hit some good form as the year went on. Eddy was tough last night, doesn't shy away and will play. Mini plays his role and there is no reason why he'll be dropped, he isn't in the team to kick a bag. When you think of players on the sidelines, Steven, Geary, Armo, Bakes...

AS a footnote, the irony of the Gilbert non free re deliberate out of bounds, is that if a free was paid then the cats would have been far less likely to score a goal from that angle than the resulting free given seconds later to Stevie Johnson.
