He was quicker than I thought he'd be. Not really sure what to make of him at this point.

Had a terrific game. If only he slotted that one though.

Dempster also took a great grab afterwards. Anyone have a link for that one?

Lonie - beginning of something big here. So much skill. Bruce - Aggressive at the ball. Great to have forward options other than Roo. Membrey - Quicker than I thought he was, and like Bruce, I can see a future for him in the forward line. Savage - Required player Saad. Poor game. At least his last (...

Homes must be improving at a scary rate. The NAB challenge must have taught him a thing or two. Who knows what might come of him?

The "Saad" clock is now going to be tested. Is his walkup really that annoying to people we now have to change the rules again? Also, I don't recall him ever being over the 30 seconds/play on rule they implemented in 2012(?)

Likewise. But these are the games to make the mistakes and learn. I can see him making the most of an AFL game at some stage this year.

Can't wait to see Eli this year. Everytime he gets his hand on it something happens.

Saints in front. Ray nails a set shot.

Very rusty early. Lucky we haven't been blown out of the game already.

"You put your left foot in..."

Very happy for Saad. Still think having him snag a few creative goals will win us a few more games next year.

Anyone seen this yet?

Very funny guys but does it strike you as little unprofessional? Compare that to McCartin's interviews. Maybe his character was the tipping point?

I'm beginning to feel that if we get McCartin and pick up two great mids at 21 & 22, I'll be satisfied.

Midfields win premierships. Even Lockett or Abblett Sr couldn't find a way of winning a flag. Abblett Jr on the other hand... If we pass on Petracca it will be a mistake. After this year how can we not see it's more important that your midfield can pass the ball as opposed to your forwards being ab...

No we don't. But I'm inclined to trust that he won't ever make that mistake again. And I can see him being a real reminder to everyone else the effect that a mistake like his can have.

Well they did win in 05 and 12

Those on here listing this as a loss for us is confusing me. How could it have been a loss for us if we finished bottom four with him anyway? Realistically what difference would he have made had we kept him here? Not finishing bottom? Whoopty do. I want the Saints to finish first, not 17th.

He's been improving every year and is still on the young side. I wouldn't trade him personally.

Would be incredible because it will be next to impossible. Considering they beat us by 80+ at Etihad earlier in the year and now they'll be at home in front of a sell out crowd and they'll be playing for finals.

How's Minchington going at VFL level?

Yeah the recruiting today was abysmal!
