Lonie meeting with Buckley according to afl.com.au

Happy to see him get the job security he is after.

No.
You just know when you get delisted by the Suns that your value is nothing.
He would only be taking games from youth that need the experience.

The thing I was most impressed about with Coffield and Clark is that they seemed to have all the time in the world to make decisions, especially in a game where everyone seemed to be making rushed and clumsy disposals. Something I have been wanting for soooo long in this team.

St Kilda midfielder set to resume training with main group

Reporting in afl.com.au that he won’t miss any training at all. Just a minor ankle injury.

Maybe someone could campaign for the 35 men killed each year by their female partners, or be honest enough to admit that many women killed in domestic violence are victims of their lesbian partners. The 85% of children abused are victims of their mothers, according to charges laid and recorded by t...

Anyone want to have a crack at the Best 22 now that the draft is done. Does it change anything at all? Clarke has been touted as a "Plug and Play" player that is ready to go. Paton is slightly older, having missed being selected last year. Coffield being so versatile. Clavarino, while he w...

It has now been reported that 3 players will be training with the saints before draft time. Starting Monday.
Sam Collins. (Freo)
Tom Lamb. (WC)
Will Fordham. (NM)

So, no dice if you were keen on the likes of Hartung or Talia.

St Kilda high performance manager Matt Hornsby said Freeman was among several young players at the club to impress during the time trial. “It’s good to see that while ‘Gears’ still holds the title, ST KILDA 3KM TIME TRIAL RESULTS 1. Jarryn Geary 2. Daniel McKenzie 3. Ed Phillips 4. Nathan Freeman 5...

Not going to lie, I some what agree with the post. Maybe not as aggressively as you SMS, but agree. I am really hoping that Stephenson and Naughton have already been grabbed by pick 7, just so we have no temptation to get them. The only one on your list I don’t really want is Higgins. I wouldn’t be ...

The only thing I can add is my amazement that so many people who wouldn't know how to check the oil in their car know exactly how good young footballers they, likely have never seen play will be. Seems not all dipsticks are found under the bonnet! I’m trying to figure out who that is directed at? J...

Lmao some people have NFI

At this rate, if he makes it to 15, he will be considered a “slider”

34 Worpel Jackson Ross Zac Bailey Matt Ling Liam Ryan 45 Zac Bailey Matt Ling Liam Ryan Tom McCartin Parish We could get lucky. I like this list, and pretty much second it. Ling will be gone in the 20’s for sure. I don’t think Zac Bailey will still be around come 45 though (would be nice) And for s...

PICK 7 COFFIELD or BONAR PICK 8 BRAYSHAW or CERRA or HIGGINS SIMPLES. IF WE CHOOSE STEOHENSON OR CONSTABLE WE HAVE SCREWED OURSEKVES AND WHATS THIS TALK OF MURPHY?????? FFS STKILDA ITS SO CLEAR WHO WE SHOULD PICK. 2 of those 5 players. DO NOT SCREW IT UP!!! Bonar is not a top 10 pick ffs. Are you b...

Whisper is we're taking Brayshaw. what a dumb thing to say. Does that mean we rate him number one? Or we are positive the six sides ahead of us don't rate him? People r only keen on Brayshaw because it is a name they recognise. He seems like an Elshaugh pick though. Vanilla and Elshaugh can say he ...

Who is the second one? Only coughlan as far as I am aware?

I was under the impression you had to delist someone to rookie them? Is this not the case? Isn’t pierce contracted? no has been done before- means due to having a contract that are reluctant to delist so will rookie- Saunders from memory and Eli were in the same situation. Ok. I am ok with this the...

From what I can tell, there essentially 4 players that should/could be available by the time 7 & 8 come around. In order of who I would like 1. Coffield 2. Cerra 3. Bonar 4. Brayshaw I Think Coffield will go to the Pies, but that would just bump him off the list. If both Freo and the Pies (proba...

Saynta, Bonar has been a massive Bolter over the past few weeks. A couple of years ago people were talking number 1 pick. But 2 knee surgeries in 2 years has him slipped out of contention. Until he had a bit of a decent comeback this year, and tested really well at the combine. Seems like his recove...

Same with me.
If not him, Worpel or Zac Bailey

Not "poor" at all. It is the end of the 2017 football season, not the start of 2018. Players are on leave, the trade period has ended and the draft is still a month away. The days of club stalwarts filling highly paid positions at AFL clubs are long gone. We keep getting told AFL is an 'i...

Trout and friends will have a list of players we will want to take already in order for pick 7 and 8. Its just a matter of crossing them off the list as each team reads them out before us if they do. Its quite exciting as the teams before us may pick players that aren't mids to best suit what they ...

I am hoping either Worpel or Zac Bailey are still there around 34. They are my 2 picks.

Do we need another key back? We now have 4 big fellas on the books with lots of years ahead of them bar Brown who maybe has 2-3. We definately won't be grabbing one in the draft you would think. Apparantly Goddard is ready for day 1 of pre-season so all 4 are good to go. I’m pretty sure we grabbed ...

Personally, I am hopeful for Cerra and Brayshaw.
Both could/might be available at that stage.
Bonar, Coffield and O’Brien are all posiblities if the others have already been nabbed.
