Re: Sack the coach, sack everyone
I thought Byrnes was ok. So another up & comer hopefully. Players clearly don't respect the coach. Why is that. He was terrible. Just can't seem to bridge the gap between VFL and AFL. I wouldn't write him off yet, but really needs to go back for a season in the VFL. However if we put the cue th...

Re: Bye bye Ratten!
There are losses and then there are losses.
Something seriously wrong and no way our talent is as bad as what we have seen. I wouldn't push the sack button, but I would pause contract talks

Re: Shaman , have to keep playing him.
I think youre being a bit rough there on young Cooper He was indicative of the whole team and had we had a functional team out there with structures and experienced players leading by example, Sharman's errors could have been put in context, If anything he tried too hard, in absense of anything on ...

Re: IF The Board Re-sign Ratten They Should Go
At the very least, contract discussion should be paused. Based on the performance of the last few weeks, there is something seriously wrong and no one should be safe

Re: Shaman , have to keep playing him.
He’s a one trick pony. Jumps for ball. Couple of times he didn’t body line the ball in marking contest. Unacceptable. I would think one of the first in line to be dropped Geez 1 game and leave Dan Butler in again?? No wonder we learn nothing ShArman should never have played. Tonight just ended that...

Lol St Kilda try so hard to be respected, try so hard to appear professional and the “good corporate citizen” we will not take the risk - be amazed if we do with the king of PC causes in Finnis in the chair.

Re: De Goey 5 year deal 800 a year.!!
My leaning is a hard no, but mainly because I can't stand him. T but on the other hand, he is exactly the player we require. And what I can't stand is more so his profile, as I , like most, don't know him. There are plenty in the league who have done much worse, drugs , jail, time etc. Hell we even ...

Season defining game. Pick best 22 so add Dmac and Steele. We have blooded some kids who all look promising, but all are no at the level- yet. Send them back to VFL to accumulate 30+ and hone their craft. Honest question here: what about the forward line? We are at least one key position forward aw...

Re: INs & OUTs v Swans
Maybe an idea from left field. If Sharman is not the man, perhaps play Highmore forward. Great hands, nice kick. Even add Campbell and station Roma up forward, atleast he won't need to run as far. With the two mccartins, we need someone to keep them honest. Actually Sharman probably does Paddy for p...

Re: Current Forward Set Ups across the AFL
Sharman has kicked 4 & 3 goals in the VFL over the last 2 weeks ..... sounds like terrible form to me and likely instructions of kicking 8 & 7 are not being met Sharman kicked the 3 the day after our last game, so wouldn't have come in to consideration. His game against the Sharks was ok to...

Re: Max King
King is highly talented as is Higgins and Butler, but they played very lazy unaccountable footy the other night, as did Jones in the middle. I'm not sure if the forward line was the main issue to the loss. We only had 46 inside 50's. When we got it in there it wasn't graceful and it wasn't very pro...

Re: Current Forward Set Ups across the AFL
Problem with Sharman is that he just isn't that good. His VFL form is meh. I think he gets overated mainly due to his game against Geelong, where they paid him no respect and let him run around without an opponent. He's a nice kick and can take a mark, but if he can't dominate consistently at VFL l...

Re: Belief as supporters
Any AFL team can look good with no pressure. Look what happened when we dialled it up in the third. Talent wise, i think we are a good bottom of the 8 side, but collectively something not right above the shoulders. If we bring the heat, we can match it with most My 1st live game since 2010 gf .im 5...

Also noticed Ross in the 3/4 time huddle was one of very few that were vocal and trying to lift a group with heads down. He adds a bit more to the group than just his own game.

Re: Gresham
He had a game of contrasts. In the first half he tried to to do it all himself rather than give it off to a player in a better position. It resulted in atleast 8 unnecessary turnovers and burnt team mates. He reminds me of the star Auskick kid that hogs the ball . Can't understand anyone that went t...

Re: Brad Hill
Interesting point by Nick on the coach.
The 3 weeks prior to the Brisbane game, Hill basically played 100% off half back. Against Lions , just 35%.
Maybe that had a bit to do with his numbers
