Re: What does Ben Dixon actually do?

Key is composure. Hickey, Armo and Long looked competent. Dunstan is composed but mechanically awkward from a set shot. Next draft do the composure and can tackle and take a bump tests. Also ask the prospect to eat raw meat (tartare of course).

Re: Sam Fisher Backs Richo In

Steady, that's giving mediocrity a bad name. I long for mediocrity on the way to kicking goal with one of the first seven scoring shots. But don't talk about that, talking doesn't fix it.

Re: Josh Battle

Saints have worst points for in the comp but several teams have worse points against. I appreciate stability but surely someone in the coaching staff and selection group can see the offense set up is rubbish and wishing a magic wand is not going to cut it.

Re: It’s starting to get very unpleasant around here

Agree saintspremiers. The silence from the club is deafening and extremely frustrating to the point of anger and of course emotional comments. It is if the Club doesn't put on field performance/wins as a high priority. Telling us the performance is unacceptable with a pat on the head, parroting that...

And Newnes. Could White get a bigger insult than being dropped from this team. They might think about playing Ross in another position as well. Just cant afford three or four duds. Feel sorry for Clark and Coffield. Battle would have to bring more than Paddy at the moment.

Re: Had a gutful. Newnes survives, Sinclair dropped

White would do better than Newnes whatever position Newnes plays, bigger & strong mark, fast, good at the tackle nice kick; but maybe has been pigeon holed half back. I hope we win, of course. If not Newnes, Gresham and Gilbert have to make way for a fresh crop unless any or all of them put in r...

Re: Surely Marshall has to stay in the best 22 from now on

To the question, yes. Marshall is the future and won't get going if he is shuffled from As to rest to Bs. A star turn like Acres in ruck is so silly. There are plenty of less skilled work horses to choose e.g. Membrey. Even the management of Blake was half bottomed, one game too late apparently and ...
