My mail is that Billings is refusing to sign and wants out. Hates Seaford :wink: REALLY - I would think Luke would be the last kid that would have concerns about training at Seaford. He seems so down to earth and humble - if true there must be another club in his ear! Luke Billings or Jack Dunstan?...

So by the "Non Winning Grand Finals" measure Ross is the clubhouse leader. So what you are saying is that he has the best win/loss ratio and got his sides into Grand Finals more than most coaches will through much longer careers. I must say that you guys are coming across as very childish...

It is quite amusing to hear Goddard's cheast-beating drivel after he chased the dollars to go from one club who wont play in another premiership for years to another club who wont play in a premiership for years. Should have stayed put and played his career out with his mates and helped build a new...

Why?

He came aboard to much fanfare. This now looks like a failure due to the bloke only being in the club for a year.

And Freo fans probably feel 'unlucky'. Anyone notice a pattern with Lyons sides ? Just not quite good enough. Flawed game plan. Relies on too few. Aint no genius. you aren't comparing Freo to us are you? They were well beaten in the grand Final and there was a fifty point turnaround in this game. H...

Whilst I do not really want anyone to fail, I need Ross to fail.

I could not cope with a Dockers Premiership considering we were a much more talented side.

Me too.

In the end, the Kangas won't win jack in his time however I am thrilled for him. Great player and cool dude!

The club not rushing to sign Schneids - or announce it anyway. They might quietly do it after the GF. They are probably embarrassed. Looks like they just haven't made the decision yet: http://www.afl.com.au/news/2014-09-12/saints-future-unclear Is that OK Con or should they just come out and say &q...

If it is based on where the departing teams' player then pick 3 is fair.

In the end, we want as low as possible for our players in the future (Yes, it will happen)

The reason for this is simple. The 'worse' the pick, the better the team has performed.

Team > individual

He has played 20 games in the first 2 years of his AFL career. What % of third round picks would have achieved that ? ... Sure he has things to work on, but so do 99% of kids only 2 years into their AFL career. He has done more than enough to earn another 2 year contract. Get around him. However as...

Im not completely sold on this guy. his skills are poor but he has pace and goes in hard. 2 years is the mximum he deseves at the moment. Certainly makes more sense than the rumour of lee and Minchinton getting 2 years extra. Agreed. He does not seemingly have a redeemable (lol) quality at this sta...

Dane Swan?

Swan is intelligent because he has footy smarts as bizarre a thing to suggest. He is damn good at what he does.

That article's still incorrect. The actual trade was: Saints got 18 + 19 + Savage Hawks got 24 + 59 + McEvoy It was just broken into two bits because they couldn't give us 19 until the AFL gave it to them (as compensation for Franklin). correct.. :wink: That is a ridiculously good trade. We need fe...

It is a good time to be a decent youngen at the St KFC. Considering we should struggle to pay the cap anytime soon, decent performances should be suitably rewarded.

I think there's something more than meets the eye. Word is... Clark was having an affair with a stripper, his wife found out through text messages found on his phone, wife gave ultimatum, Clark left her and shacked up with the stripper. After a few months, stripper walked out on him. Hence the down...

I think there's something more than meets the eye. Or the poor guy could have had bad depression. I usually choose to beleive the good in people so i will go with that based on a Ormond boy at melbourne telling my mate that is fact in his opinion. Agreed. He does have the right to choose where he t...

some people have more morality in their little finger then ross Lyon has as a whole and thats the difference. Cos he changed jobs? And acted on a clause that was built in to suit the club but instead ended up being the clubs downfall because another employer recognised his value in the industry. Yo...

Wouldn't want to pay much for him....Marcus Strescothick bodes as a warning. Once you've left top line competition for mental/emotional reasons, its very hard (not impossible) to get back. Has arguably short changed two clubs so far (whether intentional or not)....wouldn't want to be the third. So ...

This is going to have a negative impact on the perceived implications of mental health.

People are going to rush to the easy answer of 'why doesn't Clark go back to Melbourne' etc etc

Id much rather take a hail mary late pick on a kid. Wasnt Breust a rookie? Over to you redeemer. Here here. Plenty of guns drafted late/rookied Would rather an American project player like the dude from 'The Recruit' if absolutely necessary. At least that dude seemed remotely intelligent. People do...

Do we want want him though? He's another guy that kind of fits into that waiting to fulfil his potential category... for the amount of coin it would cost to get him + trade cost... I think we could do better I doubt he should be charged too much for his services and trade cost should be minimal con...

What happens if Rhys does not want to go back to Adelaide?
