So...does anyone know what's being said at the press conference currently, suprisingly I can't get SEN online at the moment.

Your a bit early homework, we've got ages to round 1, a lot can happen in that time.

Give away our number 9 pick, and involve another club as well, so we can get him, Id make every effort to get him, if he becomes available as well.

Cox is a player we really need, wouldn't that be something. Take him over Judd easily.

He's probably entering his prime, and has been good for the Crows when they've given him a chance this year. But we probably don't need him, not tall enough for rucking, and to slow to play full back. Would be good as a CHB or a target up forward, but is there any real need for another KPP player.

Of course 5 clubs will be chasing Goose, if you consider his 05 form, he has the ability to be in top few CHB's in the league. He is still young, I would try to re-sign, but obviously not paying him ridiculous amounts though.

Give him a full pre-season, and he should again start dominating in 08.

Lets hope so, he was All Australian, and Best and Fairest that year.

Riewoldt is a star, he produces week in week out, but to this day hasn't dominated a finals match. Buddy in his first finals match has won the game off his own boot. He kicked 3 goals from outside 50, and a match winner from 55 on a angle, when he had to kick it. Let him be arrogant, stood up when h...

Interesting question. He hasn't been given an opportunity yet. Now that there might be one, you'd hope he'd get a crack at the Full Forward position.

I guess it didn't really make that much of a difference, especially when a team wins by over 100 points.

It doesn't seem any team will be able to touch Geelong, its an awful sight to witness.

Some people saying he's not a super star, do they have rocks in there head? 7 goals, a couple from outside 50, steps up when the pressure is on, a matchwinner. He is a dead set gun, Id love to have someone like him in the team, who can win a match of there own boot.

Sydney aren't stupid, Jolly is a number one ruckman, and a good one at that. They would want a first round draft pick for him, or possibly a second round, with a decent player thrown in, not someone like Brooks or Rix. Would love to have Jolly here, because he is a quality ruckman, with years ahead ...

You wouldn't just happen to know how Luke Ball is going post-op would you? I can't answer that question precisely Peanut BUT I had dinner with an ex-Saints club doctor tonight which was a real eye opener on many fronts...... However on the medical front (and a disclaimer here that he is not the CUR...

Riewoldt is elite, you could pretty much say before he did his knee Lenny was elite, he is slowly coming back to that level. Dal is not there yet.

So we have definitely one elite player, and possibly another one.

If they both tank, and follow your points Saints Premiers, it should be one really bad game.

Surely the players on the field would still give it there all. Id find it disgusting as a supporter if a player on the field wouldn't be giving it there all, just for draft picks for next year.

I watched it last night, thought it was a really good performance from Roo. Performed well once again infront of the media. Sounds like he has really matured.

Interesting, they asked Wallsy, if he would prefer the Blues to lose, or win against Melbourne. He said he'd like them to lose because otherwise they miss out on a prioirty pick. In this case, I think the AFL has the incorrect rules, they give the opposition the opportunity to tank. Are Carlton doin...

It will be awful to watch, before last week, I would of said the Crows. But Collingwood's win over Sydney gives me more confidence that they can do the job. I wont be able to watch it either, i'll just be checking for score updates, will be at a party, so ill carry a bottle of vodka, so if we lose, ...

Its live here in SA, I'll try and stay away from the game, ill just check every so often for updates.

Totally agree, from watching our games this season, I think our skills and fitness need most improvement.

Fitness is quite obvious isn't it? How many final quarters have we actually won in the second half of the season. Our players are not fit enough.

Maybe we should dedicate the whole week to Collingwood.

Our skills are awful, that's costing us. We haven't been blown away in the second half of the season like we were last year. Our losses have been by far less, earlier this season, or last season we would be belted in some of these games. We have improved in that area. But to many players on our list...

No reason to be on a diet anymore for Baker I guess, now that he's not playing for the rest of the year.

Big footy is up to 80 or so replies to this Seems legit.....still wont change my tip though..... Didnt Goose have his out and then play the week after when Hall, the dog, punched him? Have it taken ou,t get some stitches, then get out there JIMMY!!! Probably no point playing him before finals. Guar...
