Re: Round 3 Game thread

I thought last week's performance was the worst I'd seen in my lifetime. Not so.

Re: Peta Searle.

Sure the conditions were atrocious but that didn't stop GWS where a fat 39 year old absolutely smashed us, I have watched all the saints games this year and they are getting worse not better. Truth hurts I know but it is what it is. Suck it up, ignorant comments not withstanding. Oh, that's lovely....

Hunter Clark is only 21

I wanted to cheer things up a little given the recent injury toll. Was just reading an article on SEN and was pleasantly surprised to read that Hunter Clarke is only 21. I know I should just know this, but it's awesome to think that he has another 10yrs plus with the Saints. He just seems more matur...

Then we can be truly national.

Re: Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas to you all. I've always said this is the best time of the year because we haven't lost a game yet. I'm only fairly new to this forum but I do enjoy reading the banter. Have great holidays and if you're like me, count the days until the first bounce.

Re: 2021 fixture

Yeah fk it. Let's play the best twice. We're a chance to beat West Coast twice, Sydney twice and maybe the Tiges have had enough so we might get 1. Geelong may be tough but I feel like we match up against Port pretty well so maybe 1 or 2 out of 3. The rest will take care of itself. Glass half full....

Re: McGuane rates saints midfield at 8

I still feel like we're not at the top of our build and may be a year or two away from the chance at glory. I look at Geelong's midfield and forward line, Richmond's x-factor and even the Dog's midfield now, and I still think there is a step up to really get top 4 and a solid chance. Can't wait for ...

Re: Seb Ross Vs Dan Hannebery

I can't imagine another year older will make Hanners any less injury prone. I feel like Ross may have had a wake up call in the early part of this year and hopefully will come out swinging to retain a spot in the best 22. Probably more upside in that.

Re: Interstate membership upgrade?

Yeah I'm in Nthn NSW and although this year was good for us, 2019 was a good example of the norm with 0 games played at Metricon or the Gabba. Makes it a big ask to get the family memberships for $532. It would be nice if the AFL could entice people in our position by chipping in with 2 free games a...

I've only been on the forum for a short time compared to many, but I must say I've been disappointed by the attacks that a few, obviously passionate, posters slam onto each other.

Re: Treloar bombshell

Would you rate Treloar over Crouch? If so, offer Crouch what we want to pay him (600K) giving Adelaide a shite compensation. They either take it or not. If he stays at Adelaide, no probs, we go for Treloar and the Pies pay for some of his wage. Maybe Adelaide baulk and are forced to take what they c...

Re: The Caldwell conundrum

I would imagine that given the salary cap has not even been agreed by the players assoc. it would be a very hard time to negotiate right now. AFL argued for a 30% reduction in salary cap today (around 4mil out of 13.1) which would have made the clubs, players and their association do a collective vo...
