Re: Are We So Bad No one Wants To Come To Our Club?
Under normal circumstances this should be an outrageous and completely wrong question to ask as well as a wrong assumption to make. But these are not normal circumstances. Clearly. Let me rephrase that. Sadly, my headline is the new normal for Saints supporters. Nothing to see here and business as ...

Re: Breaking: Polec offered 800k at 5 years
waste of money. should be throwing that at shiel, not another front-runner in Polec Could not agree more . Shiel is exactly what we need !! Polec is handy but he is not a Dylan Shiel . I realise it's a long shot to even be a chance to get him but IMO I would be doing everything in our power to get ...

Re: Dunstan to Blues
Poor trainer and apparently is pretty loose. That’s just wrong. He may have limitations but being a poor trainer is certainly not one of them. On the same topic that is one of the things you’ll see a huge improvement in. Our professionalism at training this year was poor. Will be vastly different n...

Re: Mc Cartin
After watching how important Jeremy MCGovern was on the weekend I couldn't help but wonder whether Paddy would suit a similar role down back? They are both similar in their physical make-up and share similar traits in that Paddy reads the play better than most (it's just that no one kicks it to his...

Re: The Conundrum of the Hannebery Trade
We will be saved from ourselves. Surely. Hannebery and Menzel have recently shown they are not worth a cracker. A Sao not your imported rubbish, but nevertheless not worth seriously considering. I hope we are actually playing mind games, otherwise it is a worry. I don't have a lot of faith in our f...

Re: Josh Kelly
Going early, but if Kelly has done an ACL here. Do we trade for him this off season even though he can’t play next year? If GWS are under salary cap pressures, they aren’t going to want to pay someone who can’t play for a year and is then out of contact at the end of that season. Could be a bargain...

Re: Anyone watch that rubbish tonight, and still fancy Menzel?
We need to recruit players to improve our list & I don't think Menzel is a good fit for us but the bottom line is we need some new talent. Unfortunately these type of players are the only ones we are likely attract because they want to stay in the system an extra few years & it may be their ...

Re: Who would I consider off the table for trade?
Of those who suited up in the last game of the year there are only 6 I would not consider trading; others if a great offer came and some who we are unlikely to be able to move on and who will therefore stay or be delisted. SO: Should not be traded- Membrey, Steele, Gresham, Steven, Carlisle, Webste...

I have already stated that he deserves another year even though I'm not his greatest fan . If he works his butt off next year & can prove he really deserves a better contract I would have no issue . He has been on our list for over 3 years & hasn't really cut the mustard & has played a h...

I'm his biggest critic....Quite seriously...I have made meme's about Jack Lonie. He deserves one year. That is as far as I can stretch it. He had a good last month. He wants multiple years. We don't need the list clogged. I cant see how we can hold onto him if someone else want to give him some mor...

Re: Breaking: Polec offered 800k at 5 years
Yeah I'm with you. IMO Lycett is only a bit better than what we already have & as mach as Polec would be a handy pick up 800 grand seems pretty steep but I suppose it's supply & demand & if we don't offer that sort of coin we miss out
