Re: Saints a chance for pick 2 and 21

dumb decision. We get two bites at the cherry with 7 &8. Depending on which phantom draft you look at we can get an outside mid Jaidyn Stephenson, Jack Higgins, Lochie O'Brien and a defender Noah Balta, Harrison Petty or Aaron Naughton. Or we can get Luke Davies-Uniacke, Cameron Rayner, Paddy Do...

Thanks SR - DJ I am assuming you were adding in some comedic value not just list clogging the forum[/quote] Partly. But I am a little over getting in delisted or damaged players from other clubs.

We take a big pile of money and set fire to it. 2 clubs and neither were happy with him. Out for a season with injury, caught doing blow and he is average at best. Another list clogger

Re: J Stephenson

I have little confidence in Paddy McC being a regular senior player, with his diabetes and that other issue... He may play 16 games in a row, in an ideal world, but I don't think he can play 3 in a row comfortably. Therefore I would love the club to grab the best forward prospect, to add to our oth...

Re: J Stephenson

He will go earlier than 7 so not really an option. I hope we keep both picks and get an outside mid and a key defender, not two mids. Shame Brander will go at pick 6 or earlier. I don't want Fogarty due to him being injured already and we cant take the gamble. Higgins looks good but we already have ...

Re: I am worried ....

Why is everyone so keen to get rid of picks 7 & 8? Is it because we dont trust our recruiters? If yes then why not deal with that issue directly by improving or better resourcing our recruitment team? Agree. completely. We have 2 top ten draft picks, use them to get 2 kids with potential and tr...

Re: Josh Kelly signs with GWS

Great news. Seriously it wasn't going to happen and now false hope is gone. Rather than trade in a great player in its now for us to draft our own or train our players up to be a grade players. So onto the draft for one gun mid and key defender

Re: Goddard and Paddy ready for FULL pre-season

Good to hear that they will have full training this off season but i have some thoughts There is talk of Paddy switching to the back line which isn't a terrible idea, at least to start with. It will let him see the whole game laid out in front of him and learn how the ball comes into the fifty from ...

Re: Mav Weller news

It will all come down to what we are offered for him. He had a bad season and it is he's own fault. If you are injured, don't play until better. I don't think he will get traded independently i.e. he will be part of a deal to get a better player to St Kilda. It just depends on whom. i.e would you gi...

Re: lonie considering other clubs

If you read the article it basically says he was offered one year by us and is looking to see if he can get a longer one elsewhere. He won't be but he may be added to any deal done with GWS so hopefully we can see the back of him. Best case scenario he trains his arse off pre season and become capa...

Re: If worst comes to worst

It is far from the worst thing to take both our picks to the draft, in fact I want it to happen. We need 2 more players, an outside mid and a key defender and we can get both with our picks. Kelly is a gun sure but he cant play defence and the midfield plus he is unlikely to come to us if he leaves....

Re: Saints didn't 'walk the walk'

Except for the 2018 predictions which is just guess work, it was hard to argue with what they said. Props paid to Billings for playing better but still needs to go up a gear and to Roberton for a great pick up from the west although I am nervous he hasn't put pen to paper.

Re: Goddard to CHF

We need him up back for when Brown retires plus for what I have seen he may not make the team for a while. He is pretty slow and a big turning circle so he should focus on his current postion
