Re: Maddie's Match

100%
Stop with the themed games.
The players don't need any hoohaa, they just need a certain amount of instructions and set plays.
Don't need them suffering info overload, they'll get confused

So Higgins stays in, even though we have an excess of small forwards, and Bruce would stretch defences and take heat off Winx?

Re: Rowan inches closer to return

Marshall is a winner as a man and let’s hope he can drag a few of his teammates along with him when he does return. I’d also be looking at Dunstan this week as we are being smashed physically at the contests. Deceptively strong and won’t hesitate to put his body on the line, including making tackle...

Any news on how Gresh’s procedure went? It was such an innocuous movement.

Re: Ratts ahead of round 4

If I refer to him as Coach Cuddles, is that demeaning?
Ratts needs to stop with the gentle father act and turn into a US Marines Drill Sergeant.

A half-fit Ryder will be more valuable than Hunter or McKernan.

Bulldogs put a lot of effort into it,

We'd do the same if we lost a game like that.

Scott Waters had a special talent for alienating people. The club did the wrong thing selecting him in the first place. The decision to sack him was ruthless, but entirely justified and necessary.

Finnis and Bains are unproven? I'm firmly in your camp. Both are lawyers, and I remember Year 12 that the very cream could go to medicine at uni, or choose Law.

Re: St Kilda stilll being screwed re Stadium deals

35,000 members, very poor attendances at every game-
no wonder the Saints are poor cousins.
Fans should start supporting- bums on seats.
More people equates to more power.
The Saints FB page has 150,000 'likes'.
Likes mean nothing.
Has to translate to 'support'.

I remember a friend who gushed over Steve Waugh's 'Tour Diaries' as if they were Pulitzer Prize-worthy.
Nick's book appears to be light-years ahead of the former grumpy cricket captain.
I sent her an email of Caro's article, but she just went all stupid. (Hawks supporter).

Re: Poll - Who do you want at pick 7 & 8? Pick 2 players.

I don't know a thing about any young prospects.
I just hope Trout picks 2 that have good families
regardless of any medical issues- diabetes etc.
I don't trust doctors, just like Trout :o
