Re: Matthew Parker
Parker had some flair and deserved a couple more seasons. Also designed our best indigenous guernsey. Mason Wood and Ben Long offer more to the forward line than Lonie and Kent. A fuller list next year might also see Gresham squeezed back in there. In the 2020 season the final against Dogs Kent pla...

Re: Trade-Draft 2021 Discussion
You are kidding surely Curly? Longer was the laziest footballer ever to pull on a Saints jumper, he made Capuano look good. Brisbane must have been laughing when they off loaded him. Ryder is the best ruckman we have had since Gardiner! I often think Curly is the most hilarious person on the board ...

Re: Sandringham vs Essendon Sunday 2.00pm
Bytel is going to be a massive part of our future list
we should be getting games into him - so I struggle with his constant rotation in the seniors

Re: And That's Why We Torture Ourselves!!!!
Speaking of the bench Had the chance to see Kent up close on the outer wing in last year's finals match agent the Dogs last year. What he brings to the game is a body that hits packs very hard. You can feel the body smacks from the sidelines. I understand his form in the twos has not been stellar bu...

Re: Why AFL is so hard to umpire
Since 1965 we're 5th (out of 20) on the 'free kick ladder' with 33773-32918 (for-against), which is a percentage of 102.6 So yes, maybe the umps need to stop looking after us so much. How about you give us the stats since the turn of the century. You won't will you as it wont suit your biased pro m...

Re: The best way to improve umpiring - abolish consistency
The player held the ball… held it… held it pass the screams of BALL and then released a jet like handball to another Saint running by. I thiink you explained exactly why he got penalised he held held it held it - but your claim the tackle was ineffectual is incorrect s the player was impeded the ti...

Re: The Hunter headclash
Ball is in flight. How is it the same as the Hunter incident? When a ball is in flight there is only 1 predictable point that that footy will land and if both players arrive at that point at the same time then they both had an equal chance to contest. Watching the Gold Coast vs Port you are seeing ...

Re: Seb Ross, Tim Membrey, Jake Carlisle family leave.
Amazing how this topic has generated so much debate pro and con, but I was far more impressed with what Jack Riewoldt and Adam Treloar stated when asked about their views on AFL360 last night. In case you missed it, both emphatically supported Ross and Membrey taking leave of absence to be with the...

Re: Seb Ross, Tim Membrey, Jake Carlisle family leave.
As Kane Cornes said, these blokes are getting CEO-level salaries. Having said all that, I reckon the club let Ross and Membrey go because they long ago accepted the season was over. And they know we desperately need low draft picks to make up for past blunders. Again it what you say is true about t...

Re: The Hunter headclash
I'm torn on this one If there is no suspension i would not be overly surprised Both players were entitled to go for the ball. Some are clamming that Hunter had possession but the ball only bounced up to his hands the instant the collision occurred. And regardless possession means zilch so I'm not su...
