Re: Invited To train

I actually think all 3 boys have a bit to offer - if I had to choose only one, I'd probably go for Tom Lamb because he's got X factor but I'd need to know why he hasn't broken into the Weagles side - from memory, he was a bit of a slider in the draft with reports that although he was highly skilled,...

Re: Entire draft and rookie picks

I'm a big fan of Jack Higgins but I can accept the argument that maybe we don't need another small midfielder / forward type - I've got a soft spot for Jack because he played with my son for 4-5 years at Ormond and has always been a cut above the rest of the pack. NICK COFFIELD is one that I would ...

Mullett

I think Fogarty is a must and I differ from most here, dont really rate Brayshaw seems a bit cookie cutter
Agree with Brayshaw looking a bit Vanilla....neat and tidy but we need X Factor

Re: Where to for Nick O'Keaney.

I am unsure of height and weight but if you are of smaller frame then you need a point of difference being pace, evasion and sublime skills with the ball in hand including because your stature means you will be fed the ball more often than not So a receiver not an inside player, where bigger bodies...

Re: 2017 Draft. Picks 7,8- who do you want?

1. Jack Higgins by a country mile (despite only being as tall as Gresham, will be a star)
2. Bonar

Re: Danny opens up-:"no man should ever walk alone"

Well done 'Spud', really admire his honesty. I think it's fantastic when high profile sports people open up about their struggles with mental health because it just reminds you that it is an illness and it doesn't discriminate. If it can happen to Spud, it can happen to anyone. We really need to rem...

Sam Collins worth a shot

I think rather than look at trying to bring Tomlinson into the club and possibly having to part with Pick 7 or 8, we have a serious look at Sam Collins, who was recently delisted by Freo. Just reading this article, it seems to me that he wasn't given a go at Freo and could be a good player if given ...

Re: Most boring finals series ever ?

Maybe it's just me but i found that to be the most boring finals series ever. 8 out of the 9 matches were effectively over at 3/4 time , some a lot earlier. The one close match was pretty painful to watch . Scrambly , lots of poor disposals and average umpiring. The grannie wasn't much better . I s...

Whether Lonie stays or goes lets treat the kid with respect. There is no point in bagging him on the way out. Well said! Jack Lonie has done nothing to merit some of the KRUD he has to cop from this forum, other than to "fall short of the expectations of some supporters" Give the kid a br...

Re: Stringer

Stringer is gifted, but The Bulldogs have issues with his preparation and personal life. Now issues in his personal life may be transient, but a lack of work ethic is a real worry. Then if we did recruit him, one of him, Bruce, Membrey or McCartin would be playing for Sandy, as there wouldn't be ro...

Re: Match Thread Saints vs Dees

I'd pull the trigger now and put Carlisle up forward - they don't have any monsters that are going to cause damage up forward, their midfielders are carving us up.
It's worth a try...

Re: stfu

My advice to Paddy is to give it away. I say that from personal experience with concussions. Unless the club has some magical cure, then they are kidding themselves. I think Paddy needs to give it away and the club should be persuading him to do so. It would be an absolute disaster for the club to ...

Took some absolute brilliance in the end from 2 incredible players. 22 blokes out there showed significantly more heart for the saints than quite a few ordinary "supporters" on here.
