Re: Shane Savage = rebounding defender minus the 'defender'

Savage didn't have a great game but the guy who really struggled was Fisher. Not surprising given his lack of match fitness but at 30+ it is hard to see him going on next year. He looked really slow playing on Stringer and I think Savage offers more going forward. Savage and Gilbert coming off half ...

Re: Serious question

What are rules about a priority pick?
Surely if it is available we must be candidates.
Are the rules fixed or is it discretionary.

Re: VFL Rd 13 Sandringham Vs Port melbourne

White has shown enough today to suggest he should be tried at AFL level.
In a season of very few positives he could be something special.
Ordinarily he would need to play a few good ones in a row but we aren't in a position to be that demanding.

We needed a good percentage reduction to keep 18th spot.

Senior players should be embarrassed.
Armo giving away 50.
Ray allows uncontested mark at top of goal square.

Lenny only one still going at 100%

Re: Match Thread - cats v saints

Coach is going nowhere.
He is asking players to take the game on but due to size and skill many are not capable.
Either they learn and improve or show them the door.

Re: Game Thread Saints v Pies

That was embarrassing.
We are so far behind it's not funny.
Only positive I can see is we will have the number 1 or 2 pick at end of the year.

Re: Game Thread Saints v Pies

Midfield pressure is non existent.
Is that because we are too slow, not enough muscle or a combination of both?
It is ridiculous how easy teams score against us.

Re: Jayco Caravans

Lindsay Fox didn't put in to help St Kilda.
He asked the likes of Trevor Barker to play for next to nothing so they could write off debt.
Barker famously donated a car he won back to the club.

Lindsay Fox has put more money into Carlton than he has St Kilda.

Re: Favourite saints player who played with a injury

That's a huge call Equal to Lockett? Natural ability he did. 2 knee reconstructions before he was 20 in a time when few players came back successfully. Went off the rails and was badly handled by the club. Talent wise, he was the equal of Lockett as a junior but unfortunately his career did't refle...

Re: Favourite saints player who played with a injury

I was there when Rod Owen did his hamstring, went to full forward and kicked a bag on his left.
Had his leg heavily strapped and could hardly walk.
He had the natural ability equal of Plugger but was cruelled by injury.

Re: Good news re Rd 1

Is there any news on Fisher or Bruce?
Starting to get concerned about Fisher now as he has missed a lot of football.
Hope we don't have to rely on Gwilt as a KPP in back line again.

I have also seen the Gary March rumour.
Could have legs.
No longer on the Richmond Board and has a strong back ground.
Certainly qualified by seems odd being a strong Tiger man.

Re: Rumour that Scott has gone...

If you read what I said "there is a perception" The fact is Collingwood believed Rielwoldt was attainable. Where did this come from?????? GWS believe they can get Fisher. North are extremely confident on Dal Santo. Where is this coming from? Time will tell but I'm not convinced Watters and...

Re: Rumour that Scott has gone...

Mixed messages are being sent by the club.
On one hand, there is a perception that all our seniors players are up for trade.
Then Watters comes out and says to back off our players.
Looks like a shambles and no wonder players are getting annoyed.

Re: Trade with the bombers

It is in both Dal Santo's and St Kildas and Essendon or North or whoevers interest to use the Free Agency option. My reading of his contractural situation is that he has satisfied the clauses in the contract to enable the optional year to be triggered however that contract extension has yet to be l...

Re: Dempster

I'm a huge Lyon fan but fact is some players are better under new coach and others have backwards.
In my opinion Dempster happens to be a better play under Watters.
