Re: Brodie McLaughlin linked to Saints

What's the point in getting him we do need a key forward but not another 193-95 cm player we need a 198+ KPP who can compete with the big defenders. We have Hayes 194cm Allison 195cm Sharman 193cm and what is the point of difference with this player will he play back but then we have Battle 193cm co...

Re: Astute trading

If we loose Dougal this year and Battle is out of contract next year as a restricted free agent and walks who do we have to play KPD, Adams was doing ok and with a 3rd year under his belt should have slot into that spot but now we could be caught out with only Cordy as a KPD any young guy we draft n...

Re: Keep Coffield

Keep him he could play like a Blake acres roll on the ball for short stints or forward at 191cm he could take Owens HFF position when he is in the midfield I would hate to see coff play really well for someone else after he has been out of action for so long we should keep him at 23 we could always ...

Re: Jacob Koschitzke

Richmond need a replacement for Jack Riewoldt. BTW. The longer that Richmond drag their feet on their new coaching announcement, the more I think mini will be at the Saints next season. In place of who? Don't we have a interim footy operations manager in David Mission or even help with forwards

Re: Hypothetical but would we recruit Blues Silvani?

I think we should get him he is a handy player can play ruck, forward, back will cost us next to nothing and if he doesn't work out he have lost nothing.
Really I think he would thrive in our environment he works hard and puts himself on the line a win win for us.

Re: AFL 2023: Nailing trades can turn St Kilda into a contender

Trading picks for players didn't work for us 2018-2022 and it won't work now. The Hill and Crouch trades were short term options. We need to go to the draft, trade out players for picks, and put out soft cap into player development. I agree with you about spending more money on player development b...

Re: List speculation from Jon Ralph

How about fixing up the academy's for the Vic teams so that we don't have to wait to pick 40 before we can get one of our own players we have developed that would be a start the interstate teams get enough leg up its about time we stood up to the AFL about this.

chol wonts out of GC he was under Hardwick at Richmond and hardly played reason why he went to GC I here he is desperate to get out so would get him cheap if that's the case why not.

Do we look at Chol and Hollands from GC

Chol would be handy as a forward to help out king and Sharman with Membery maybe playing more as a high half forward. Chol also can ruck and even play as a KD which he has been doing in the GC seconds. Hollands would be also a good pick up at 21 and only 12 games at GC with there very strong midfiel...

Re: The Cordy v Howard argument

Its not a argument Cordy is so much better in reading the play less turnovers and has a good mark on him.

Billings- keep him. has no trade value, would be cheap to keep, good depth, let him finish as a 1 club player. Coffield - must keep him. ...

Why do we have a restriction on a NGA when the interstate clubs don't no incentive another situation were we get screwed.

How is Sharman still in after last week every time he got close to a contest he would not tackle and couldn't hold his marks.
At least caminiti will tackle and puts in and do some ruck work Sharman is a passenger.

Re: Sandringham

Adams doesn't really have the physique to play as a key back. He's built similarly to Nick Blakey. In fact, he reminds me a lot of a guy who used to play for us in the early 1990s called Tim Elliot, who was a kind of defender/back up ruck. He does some good things, but he has his fair share of howl...
