Colin Wisbey said that Armo is very similar type to Joel Selwood, just lacked fitness in his first year (along with confidence) and is definitely one to watch out for this year Pies definitely stuffed up, they really should have gone for Armo and Sellar over Reid and Brown IMO Reid can't kick and Br...

I'm surprised your flying so close to the cap with such an ordinary playing list

What could West Coast possibly have done to give you the s***s so much ? 3 premierships ? finals in 17 of 21 seasons ? a 5 year long waiting list to become a seated member ? 5+ million dollar profits for the past 5 years ? having a 4-1 record over the saints in the past 5 games, 2 of those wins in M...

If West Coast can mke two grand finals with forward lines consisting of Lynch, Hansen, Armstrong, Sampi and Staker then we should manage just fine with Riewoldt, Gehrig, Koschitzke, Milne and Schneider. It is the midfield we need to focus on improving, not the forward line. Very true, best way to b...

Watch out for Shannon Hurn in that match, I don't remember much from it but I do remember him have a decent impact in the midfield.

I would be putting the blame on the individual in this case He broke a very clear rule put in place by the leadership group (drinking in public) and as far as I can gather he wasn't with any of his west coast team mates that night. He has been suspended from the nab cup (which means he has to play 3...

Did you know that Fiora has the equal most games played (of current players, around 5th of all time with Shannon Watt from the kangas) without getting a Brownlow vote

surprised me because I have seen him play some pretty good footy

In and under Kerr, Priddis, Masten, Ebert, Hurn, Waters, Butler, Selwood, Selwood, McGinnity, McNamara, Stenglein 'outside' Braun, Fletcher bugger can we borrow some outside mids :shock: Seriously though, the team that controls the stoppages and can move the ball from contested situations cleaner wi...

West Coasts bad form almost always coincides with Ash Hansen not being in the team, its unbelievable how important he is to the team. We won 8 from 10 in the games he played more than a quarter in, the others we had the 18 year old mitch brown trying his best but apart from a good first half in roun...

Luke ball had every right to be taken ahead of Judd Look at Joel Selwood in 2007, then add a 2.83 20m sprint (by far and away one of the best you will see from a midfielder) and goal kicking ability and you had an injury free Luke Ball. J. Brown had the same problem with his groin on 2005 and he rec...

Full Backs are over rated, genuine 6 person defence with a midfield that keeps the pressure on is more effective. Glass is awesome because he is isolated so often and the midfield of 05/06/07 was so bloody unaccountable. Your new coach has the right idea, midfield puts the pressure on and it doesn't...

you don't want palmer, he is a more extroverted Chad Fletcher (2006 Fletcher, not the awesome 2004 Fletcher) Seriously, he is a 15 metre player - get the ball from an inside midfielder, get caught and then ineffective handball turnover x 32 times a game. terrible field kicking, rarely tries to kick ...

Former West Coast rookie

I always thought he was a dud though

West Coast will take Palmer if Morton is not available - thats pretty much a given it would seem, as Palmer is ready for AFL football (and they need a ready made midfielder to help ease the loss of Judd and Cousins) from all reports, and a homegrown boy as well - no homesickness. Homesickness will ...

Gardiner & Cousins back at the same club

bloody hell

DON'T FALL FOR HIS GOOD LOOKS SAINTS FANS

the roses look nice but they smell like s*** and will infest your garden with weeds.

I have David Myers going to the Saints at #9 in my phantom draft Out of curiosity, where do you have the defenders in your phantom draft? Is Rance off the board before our pick? Where do you have Collier, Gaertner and Pears? I don't really see us going for Myers just because he seems best suited to...

I have David Myers going to the Saints at #9 in my phantom draft when you think of Masten just picture Marc Murphy, if he was Victorian he would have a much bigger profile. I highly doubt he would go later than 6 or 7 at worst. Jack Grimes is another I wouldn't be surprised to hear called on draft d...

Michael S. Gardiner

18 games in the past 4 seasons

I wouldn't get your hopes up saints fans, I would love to see him get through a full year but so many times he failed to do it.

how dare a young male car lover gets pissed on a Friday afternoon, in the off season

the journo's editor should be sacked for letting that through

Disgruntled player says players are on drugs but has no proof - not much the board can do given the state of the playing list at the time & lack of guidance from the AFL (time before off season testing) Board asks players if they are using drugs, players lie - nothing the club can do without pro...

Jude Bolton to the West Coast

Morton will be a Tiger. Would not surprise if WC will do a deal that the Tiges take the other Morton at No 2...so that WC can get the player at 3 that should go 2. Yep agreed. Trent Cotchin or Cale Morton at 3... either one would be good for the Eagles as far as I'm aware Mitch Morton + 30 will go ...

I doubt Embley would leave, Chick is gone & not many players are still there from the bad old days'

McEvoy is rated 4th by most clubs

top 4 on talent is pretty much Kruezer, Cotchin, Morton & McEvoy in that order but there is about 5 blokes that clubs rate at pick 5, I know that the hawks have David Myers at 5 but not sure about the others.

from what I have seen Wood is going to be a very very good player once he bulks up. the problem for the lions is that they have Luenberger, a serious contender for the most promising ruck I have ever seen. will be so far ahead of Dean Cox by 25 and he will just dominate the competition. You would be...
