North offered Mav $700 per year for 4 years!!!!! Rumour only @ this stage!!!!! $700 per year. You can get a heap more than that on social welfare.

Interesting to see one of our own, Joey M tip Melbourne this week, reason: Max Gawn will dominant the ruck against the inexperienced and under developed Marshall!!!!!

Re: No help for Rowan

It’s just nice having a ruckman who is effective around the ground and helpful in general play. Someone who can tackle and kick and mark. Rare features for recent St.Kilda rucks

Re: Changes v Demons

Out: Kent, Patton In: Geary, Steven (if ready to go) otherwise maybe Joyce (Battle to play forward and Bruce to chop out Marshall) I don’t think we’ll see Battle go forward permanently again. The club value him, but that forward line is just waiting for King to come in. You can’t really play Bruce,...

It was Mc Evoy & a pick to Hawthorn for 2 picks (Dunstan & Acres) & Savage.
I don't think he was saying that they were part of the same trade.

Rather that they happened in the same period.

Re: Blake Acres

Seems deceptively strong, doesn’t really get pushed aside in the ruck?

Noticed he did it even deep in the 50 when Bruce was around so is a clear plan. If he just halves the contest we are a big chance of winning it because as soon as it hits the deck he beats the opposing ruck.

Not sure if it was just me, but I was shocked when I saw he only had 8 touches.

Re: Let's talk about Josh Bruce.

Hands down is the best forward on our list and the constant underrating of him over two years has been nauseating at times. Only player on the list that has on multiple occasions kicked a small bag of goals in a well beaten side with the possible exception of Membrey who is less reliant on needing ...

Re: 3rd Tall

Agree. Pierce needs more support as well, and I hate seeing Bruce in the ruck. Thought we had too many small forwards yesterday, Parker, Lonie, Gresham, Long and Kent. Of course Gresham is a lock, and he can play through the middle. Parker was aggressive and quick so he deserves another couple of g...

Re: Rd 1 Saints v Suns - match thread

Couple of the questionable selections provided next to nothing.

Pierce looks really slow and didn’t do much in the ruck
Dunstan didn’t do much all day - but credit for the attack on the ball at the end.
McKenzie was also pretty useless.

Pierce looking like an inspired selection from Richo.

Getting dominated in the air by Witts.

Just about useless around the ground.

Can’t believe Marshall didn’t get first crack after how good he was to finish the year last year and in JLT2

Re: Saints team for round one

Shocked that Marshall doesn’t get first crack I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed. I'm actually concerned about both Pierce and Marshall playing. We could be top heavy. Marshall is not a key forward. If McCartin isn't playing, Battle needs to play forward. Hopefully that happens when Brown gets back...
