Re: Rhys Stanley for Pick #21

I'd back a fit Hickey & Longa in any day. Remains to be seen if either can rest forward and be dangerous. Same can be said for Stanley. exactly Stanley was for most games dead wood in the forward line and an average at best ruck ... with Longer we have an average ruck who is dead wood in the fo...

Re: Rhys Stanley for Pick #21

Well based on that comment lets trade every single player over 26 years of age or retire them and hope to fluke a player in the draft. At least we will know we will lose every week with that forward line. now you are just being silly no one is saying to slice the list up for nothing picks but as yo...

Re: Rhys Stanley for Pick #21

Don't like this trade. Stanley seems to be the only one that can play ruck/fwd - very mobile and takes marks, lots of them, many contested. They spend years developing him, only for someone else to benefit. He's only about 23, what sort of message does that send to the playing group? DP 21 and the ...

Re: Rhys Stanley for Pick #21

Inconsistency is definitely an issue. But I still believe that Rhys will rise to the occasion as the Club gets stronger in time. I see no value in a trade for pick 21. At least pick 14 and a player. Otherwise my bottom line is leave him where he is and hold the faith. Go Sainters ! ! highly over ra...

how has Stanley finally arrived ?? he looked good in patches in 3 games last year other than that it was same old same old from him ... he may improve signifigantly with better delivery but the fact is he isnt going to get that from us for a fair while yet .. as for sending him to freo over geelong ...

Re: Rhys Stanley for Pick #21

gringo do we really need to replace Stanley ?
a fit Hickey can float forward from the ruck
Bruce can move forward , Tom Lee/Spencer White may get more of a run up front .. is Stanleys role really a vital cog especially considering we are morethan likely going to be a bottom 2 team again next year

Watters used to talk for the sake of talking and would often repeat himself and then contradict himself he was all puff and blow hence why the players never really brought into him as ...

Re: Rhys Stanley for Pick #21

Geelong must see him as a 3rd banana fwd/ruck. They already have the Tomahawk and Mitch Clark. Surprised given that they already have Clark. They have also over recent years completely changed their staregy with the recruitment of recycled players. We're they once proud that their team was all home...

Re: Rhys Stanley for Pick #21

Ok so let's say wright gets taken at 3. McCartin ain't a ruck and none of our other rucks can play forward. Seriously not liking it. Trade Longer. Oh that's right no one would want him. Stanley could embarrass is if he goes. Sure if he was 25 or older piss him off, but gee, pick 21 doesn't inspire ...

Re: Must trade our number 1 pick to dogs for 4 and 7

really? the saints hired an insane man to be head of the trade period and help with list management? yeah sure i can see that not ask dermie why the hawks gave him the flick......... Dermie also thinks Scott Watters was going to be the next Kevin Sheedy .... his opinion is not exactly bankable
