All saints - watch this - macadam & winmar warming up

Great article / comments by Milera - shows that coaching team are able to get mature players to be self aware about what they need to fix in their game. Now it would be great for the team for Milera to get a run in seniors - show every body that regardless of if you are flavour of month / on big $ /...

While his marking on lead was great, and this no doubt meant nick could spend more time close to goal - what really pleased me (on watching relay) was desire to throw his body in- if he can keep imprint his tackling / bumping pressure- I reckon the rest of his game will fall into place

Yes drag it, I reckon you are missing a bit on jones: Have a look at defensive pressure he applies and how many turnovers he helped to create Have a look at the lock down he put on fletch so nick could mark in a one on one -and then goal Have a look at the sharp hand pass he gave to billings in a cl...

Dal is one of the best ball users in the AFL - surly having him in list helps with training , coaching, showing kids how the elite users play the game - I think dal will be playing for saints next year

Jason, to me you are the epitome of the team player - who played the role chosen by the coach to benefit the team without flinching - even through it often meant 'sacrificing' your game. You are great example of what is needed to excel at this level to all of our young players and i hope you will co...

Good on you M44 - a great read, brought back great memories - we may never find another small forward like Milney - but hope you remain a passionate saints supporter

Leading players with passion in singing club song after any & every victory - along with always being one of the first to congratulate a young player for kicking a goal

Great role player , extremely hard working and reliable - his marking and kicking improved over the years - but desire to sacrifice his own game to do role & commitment to the unseen 1 percenters made him extremely durable - great example to generation x of how to play 'team' footy

Good day at rooeys recruits...fantastic weather. Roo, dal, Ben, Steven, Faz, Sean, Gwilt, gears, joey Interestingly at the end, roo thanked everyone and said it probably won't be rooeys recruits next year...not sure what to read into that, might pass it on Sainterk - you have made 18000 posts so I ...

I think his contested marking, kicking/ disposal decision making & run and carry have all improved this year - he has got to be one of the success stories for whatever the coaches are doing - if he continues to make small improvements in his game I can see him being in the team for a fair while.

nicks goal scoring over last few years as a % of total scoring kicks below:

2013 : G 37 - B 22 - 62%

2012 : G 47 - B 31 - 61%

2011 : G 36 - B 31 - 53%

2010 : G 39 - B 34 - 53%

Rhys Stanley and Trent Dennis-Lane should hang their heads in shame. Absolutely pathetic the both of them. Soft, timid, inept, insipid. Cost us the game without doubt. I thought TDL was really quite good- did more than Milney and was covering the ground well. He is mobile and makes the next contest...

Arms like tree trunks - will be goog to see him lay a few tackles - should earn a spot for next week

How can an umpire give 50m against dal when he did not see it - that is absolute bulls*** & as Richo said Hickey mark was absolutely clear

I cannot see how we can ever give tdl another game

Did anyone see Dal on TFS when he said with a fair bit of passion that he had been at saints since he was 17 & would be a saint for life - sounded pretty sincere to me - or more specifically does anyone believe that loyalty counts - perhaps we should see if we can change the moto to ' 4 months o...

Not sure I can believe the proposition put by old mate that you learn the same from losing as wining in terms of player develoment - I think developing a culture that is focused on winning and learn the small differences that create a win is far more important than getting a couple of higher places ...

There's something extremely gratifying about watching Jones succeeding. Seems to have done a stack of work on his kicking. It's the first time since his debut season that he's had more kicks than handballs. Yes - matched with overall vision & decision making in disposal - 2 years ago he would j...

so if he continues to play like he did agains Blues and Freo do people seriously think he should be delisted next year ?

A mid needs to be our first pick.

I thought it shows why we need a KP fullback

I cannot see how Wright was dropped on form - his intensity in first half against Freo was great, skills & effiency in delivery were good - and if looked a lot quicker than Hill when he was chasing him down in first quater.

Understand wanting to stay away from the very ugly scene that will occur ut not sure why any supporter would not be able to 'enjoy the game because Miline is playing' My concern is that supporting Milney and his right to be presumed innocent and go above his normal work will be misconstrued by the m...

Can I ask about the gameplan. Simplistically (as is most of my football analysis) seems that Watters wants us to use our pace and skills to score fast goals of the rebound, or if the opposition has a zone structure set up to switch the play. If the rebound football is based on turnover, am I correc...
