Re: Riewoldt and his goal-kicking

If Travis Cloke can do it, Riewoldt can At the moment he is probably kicking about 5/10 shots at goal, If he could get to 7/10 it would be a huge improvement I would tend to agree that it's a mental issue for Nick. When he first started he was a good kick for goal. I still remember him dominating t...

Re: Intra Club Pre-season Match

What the... fudge? I was eagarly waiting the flood of reports from this morning, and wondering why they weren't flowing in??? So this is why. But why publish an open intra club game (shouldn't all intra club games be open?) and then overnight make it closed????http://www.saints.com.au/news/newsartic...

I happened to be at a party on New Years Eve with a committee member from another club who stated categorically that there is a high profile player who has tested positive at least 3 times and that most within AFL circles know about it. But he's still playing. Seems you have to be a rookie or an or...

Should also investigate the tainted 92 Premiership team. In 1991 WCE were a bunch of skinny kids. In 1992 they had muscles on muscles. Everyone knows the story but the AFL have always turned a blind eye. what a load of CRAP !! We see this happen every year skinny kid from the previous year bulk up ...

Great effort on your team of greats but I disagree with your choice of ruckmen. IMO. Thank you, much appreciated. :D 1.Big Carl in his prime was a great player. He had a huge leap, a big tank, was quick across the ground and put the fear of god into the opposition. He was captain for a couple of ye...

Interesting discussion. Makes you wonder if we had kicked more accurately in 09 and a bounce had gone our way 2010 whether ppl's thoughts would be influenced and that virtually every position would be filled by players who played in the last 3 years. Now I never saw the Doc play - and certainly his...

Agree re Cyril. Though I fear for his longevity in the game. Just keeps on twanging hammies, & is only young... If we'd had him a few years ago, I reckon we'd have 2 more flags. That said, I can totally understand why at the time we went for Big Mac. Furthermore, I wouldn't be at all surprised i...

Here's my go for what little it's worth. No claims that this is definitive... Full Back: Bob Murray, Danny Frawley, Trevor Barker. (Luke Penny if he'd played more, honourable mention to Jamie Shanahan, I never saw Verdun Howell, but would be happy tohave him as number 1 from what I've heard.) Half B...
