Fair call then...

Nowhere near on track. Melbourne's records starts around the time they got Jesse hogan, so it is comparable. Good thing is that some of the younger guys are getting a game and they are showing a bit. Pissed off that Long got hurt because he was showing a bit. Can someone give an accurate assessment ...

I cant see the point of dragging out uneven umpiring stats verses the Eagles,that's just whingeing for the sake of it. Talk about match-ups, who's gunna do what, how many will Gresham kick etc

Gresham for me......6 goals is a great effort in any team and in any era. The others were just picking up loose ball all game. Jack Steven did well and always does. The ugliest man playing football at the minute ..Jimmy Webster is back in the form he showed last year. He can always find the ball but...

Didn't he ever, made a mess of them a few times around the goals as well. The filth have had their racial issues over the years.

$35 is a fair price per ticket....anymore than that and my hand starts to tremble.

A good story Loris, thanks. George Young was a good footballer and I can remember him kicking a few bags as saynta mentioned.

I cant see Billings being traded at this stage but he definitely needs to pick up his kicking accuracy around the field and at goal. If he is any good he should be kicking 2 goals a game and handing off a couple as well and that should be a good return for a bloke his size. What is his size anyway ?...

Cant agree cairnsman but I see your point. That is what is wrong with the saints, picking a player who has not showed consistency in kicking regular goals every week even in the VFL. He is playing because he was No 1 pick....no other reason. His marking is average, his kicking is poor for a full for...

Yes, a bit of wishful thinking with that team SMS. You have got 8 current players who have played about 20 games between them and the custodian hasnt played in the seniors for nigh on 2 seasons. The full forward would have to improve 200% at least. Phillips would get a game based on current form. Re...

Thought I seen a spare tyre on McCartin against the Tigers, couldnt believe it after he has been 2-3 years in the AFL system. Cant be fit and has probably never been fit. Apart from that he has the concussion problem. Not dogging him just the saints Team management, almost unbelievable. Can you imag...

Saintmatt .................a good post, Barks was a top footballer and a good bloke and I think his time will come. I think that Rooey should give barks some free airtime on one of his many shows he appears on and promote him that way and Frawley should lobby the same.

The Eagles are all in great form, Lycett is playing like a no 1 ruckman. The ground is big I agree but no good sending in a young body, tic tac is a pretty big machine. Marshall is not that mobile yet either, it will be a tough test for him if he is picked. Thats the folly of letting Mcevoy go.

You've got it all wrong stonecold, I have played plenty of games but I cant vouch for others. Geary's skills are average and that's a fact. 110% effort is not a key indicator for the saints winning, they dont have the skills and that is proven so what part of " inadequate football skills" ...

Richardson should be gone by years end if not sooner, looks like the worst coach in the AFL. Stands a very slim chance if the saints can win 5/6 in the back end of the season and that will still leave us about 14th. I just cannot see how this club will improve in 2019 with the current list, winning ...

Longer is useless but has experience and is big bodied so he would be my call, Marshall would get destroyed

That torp was probably the worst attempt I have seen in probably 50 years-indicative of where the club is at - doing that type of rubbish, embarrassing

How about trying to get a decent ruckman who can have an impact on games and a sharpshooting forward who can kick goals from 50m out and on the run, be of far more benefit

Great post St Kev, I didnt see a bootstudder on that list though...( been a while since I played the game). It is bulls*** that is why I cancelled my membership, just a total waste of money on people who dont impact on the clubs performance and just hide in the system. With the saints playing stocks...

No way they would pick Armitage for Perth would they?....gawd.....

Why would Gaff or Sloan go to St Kilda ? There is no possible reason I can think of. Put yourself In Gaffs shoes because he is currently playing a key role with the Flag favourite. Very wishful thinking. Mitch Wallis is probably better than any saints midfielder apart from the brilliant Jack Stevens...

Geary had probably played the most games at the club hence his elevation to the captaincy. He makes too many mistakes and this cant be glossed over, he goes to ground a bit easy and as some posters have already said, does not seem to have an opponent a lot of the time. He should be taking the best s...

Have to give Brown some credit, instead of big beefy forward kicking 6, they usually only kick 1,2 or 3 goals on him, yes he gains no possessions and not a strong mark but watch how Kennedy, Hogan, Roughhead, Dixon et al, murder the smaller lighter full backs. These guys are big forwards so I dont k...

Why would you pick Armitage again ? His form in his AFL games this year has been very poor. Can you imagine the towelling up he will get against the Eagles if selected? No wonder supporters and others are turning away in droves. Throw him on the open market and see who wants him, that is always a go...

Cant see how it is a form slump, if you couldnt kick 40 metres accurately last year or the year before that , you better be practising hard to fix it right now but thats too late. At recruitment as a top 20 player you should be able to kick 40 m accurately and top that skill off once you have been p...
