Saints v Carlton pre season game - can we go ?

Apologies if this is posted elsewhere.

Can anyone tell me if tickets for the March 4 pre season game at Marvel have been made available ? Any update appreciated.

keen to see a game live after such long forced layoff.

cheers

Re: Banger

I dont think there is any way in hell they will go for another asst coach without senior experience. Might be wrong but with the amount of upheaval at NM at the moment they need a steady hand. Could do a lot worse than Ross Lyin actually. not that i give a stuff either way ..... but please ...not Ba...

Re: Lonie potentially to Bulldogs 7 news

For mine ... Lonie stays unless Higgins comes. Higgins is a massive upgrade on Lonie but Lonie is better than anything similar that we have. Kent getting 3 years is reflective of you need to pay overs to get someone in. I don’t mind him and he does a ton of unrewarded running off the ball. McKenzie...

Re: Who remonstrated with Cotchin ?

there was an absolute need to do it. Set the tone for the whole night. Free was on the 50m and we missed it anyway. Flattening Cotchin after such a dog act would not have hurt us anywhere near as much as NOT doing it did. NEVER let Richmond manhandle us like that again Saints ....never ...its unacc...

Re: Will Cotchin and Lynch be out of the finals?

I know there isnt much to be gained by pushing and shoving, but it really showed a lack of gumption that NO ONE other than Geary flew the flag for Cotchins thuggish dog act, and Gears then got Dusty and a couple of others instantly around him. Just said it all really. This was a semi final and a cha...

Battle or Coffield as midfielders

So with seemingly a good mix of size and speed in our key forward and back lines, I wonder if there is any chance at all that Josh Battle or Nick Coffield could be eventually be developed into mids ? Battle is 6 4 and 95kg - thats more or less Fyfe size ....not that I am suggesting our man is Fyfe l...

Re: Keys to beating the dogs

Paddy Ryder is a key to this game. Not just in the ruck where he should dominate anyway, but around the ground and up forward. I have loved his growing levels of controlled aggression this year. He is bursting to do well in a final and obviously knows that he is in the last few years of his career (...

No, we don't have to do it. Now is not the time, your trade baits are contracted and valuable contributors to our team current and future. And I include Jimmy Webster in this comment.

Off Season Targets

OK so with 2 weeks to wait until we get to play again, I wonder what our recruiters are looking at for 2021 ? Screw the draft - we have a top 6 side now and good drafting gets us to top 4 IMO. My 2 cents worth GO HARD for: Jye Caldwell - 10 year midfielder - skills and smarts Charlie Constable - 10 ...

Re: 68 tackles One holding the ball

first time all year I lost my cool and shouted f'ing and blinding at umpires yesterday. The amount of times a Lions player took the ball and just turned and backed into the tackle (looking at you Rayner - at least twice) rather than make an attempt was just infuriating. Whilst we were lucky to be in...
