Re: Still effing pathetic

The problem with Ross Lyon is that he doesn't listen to his own rhetoric. He wants to micro manage and he wants control over areas that aren't his domain E.g. player development Took him a while to listen to what people were telling him about Phillipou Let's hope he listens to the advice from DC, L...

Re: Votes v Eagles

Interesting NAS not in the votes Voted 2nd bog by both coaches Steele 15 tackles Enormous David King on the broadcast said at the end of the match that Windhager won us the game. I suppose people here on Saintsational agreed with that Luke Hodge or Jobe Watson often do the same thing as David King....

Re: Votes v Eagles

What did Higgins do to warrant votes? He's winning contested footy and that is important when you look at the way we kick goals and our messy entries inside 50. He is winning loose ground ball gets (which are highly rated by coaches) He kicked the goal that got us going in the last quarter, plus he...

Re: ..at the risk of positivity ..

This isn't going to be popular but I wonder if trading Max King to bring in midfield recruits is the answer and put the development into Caminiti as out number one banana. Sometimes you have to be ruthless, Clarko did it when he first got to Hawthorn and it looks like Mitchell is doing it again at ...

Re: Pendelbury on Hayes

The best player from his era, ahead of Riewoldt, Dal, Goddard. We was our Michael Voss. I disagree that Hayes was the 'best player'. If I had to rate best player, I think early years it was Banger, later it was mainly Roo, other years Dal or BJ and some years it was Lenny. He was easily the best le...

Re: Coaches votes Round 12 vs WCE

Aside from the two late goals just before half time from the Eagles, the first half was pretty even. The Eagles kicked late goals in both the first and second quarters to take a small lead into the breaks. From half time, the Saints were clearly the better team. Stands to reason, then that both coa...

We're normally chasing to catch up on the scoreboard, so haven't had a chance to close out anything. We haven't been comfortably in front except maybe the North match and also in the game against Collingwood we got 5 goals up early in the last. We have the talent to play an exciting brand.

If we get close to finals ..or if we make finals, that gives us a better chance of landing LDU

Why would he come to a club just for money? He'll get decent money if he stays at North or if he goes to another bottom 6 club...but does he want to be in rebuild mode for the next 3 years?

So was Billings (hardly ever dropped). So was Gresham (was he ever dropped?)

What about Weller and Newnes. I don't think they were ever dropped either...and they had poor games
