Justin Sweeny (Debut) (8%)

None of the above?

wore the saints jumper, therefore earns my respect.. thank you matt for your efforts, hopefully your presence has had an impact on our emerging ruckman. good luck with whatever you choose to do with your life now :] Ditto. Wasn't our greatest recruit, but I'm sure he gave 100% whenever he played fo...

Voss.

Just like moving Gehrig from the backline back to the forwardline was a masterstroke, maybe putting Voss at FF could be too. I think he's capable, a few times this year he has bagged a couple.

That's no coincidence. Last night on the Collingwood / Adelaide commentary one of the 7 commentators were talking about how Buckley delivers every time with pinpoint accuracy, and how if he only get 5 or 6 kicks a game, you know he will hit a target with each one. Harvey does this each time, every t...

Australia at the hit and giggle world cup.

So how many hundred points to the Hawks need to down the Swans by for us to make the 8?

I agree mate, time to get back into the cricket. Twenty20 World Championships next month, should be a bit of fun (even if it is meaningless), big summer against India and Sri Lanka and maybe the odd simulation match involving Saintsational.com.

Dont give me the "dont tank" cr@p - get the best kid to bolster stocks we can. You're pathetic! Guys like Harvey, Riewoldt, Thompson (I would hope) etc etc will take the field... these guys give 110% every time. NEVER, would they (or any of our 22 for that matter) try and lose. And I doub...

Not sure what we'd get for him. We know he's capable of more, other clubs would see drafting him as a big risk though.

Hedging your bets, I like it!

CJ and Thompson are about par right now I stopped paying attention here. Thompson is about 11 years better off than Clint Jones. Jones is useless, and his last few games for St Kilda have been pathetic. Thompson is a proven performer who you know will give you something on match day. Like Peckett i...

Clint Jones is not better than Thompson, come on.

Please enlighten me

Collingwood won't tank.

Go Collingwood!



No, not you Mr. MBE for "turning up"



Go Pies!!

Only two:

• R. Harvey
• N. Riewoldt

Once you gain that "elite" status, you don't lose it.

Dal Santo is on the fringes of that list, but he is still seen as very good & classy, not quite elite (a Brownlow would change that I think).

Harvey's a legend!

If we end up with more points and/or a better percentage than 8 other teams, then yes, we deserve to make it.

Damn!

Maybe someone from Victoria could Sopcast it?

Not even on Foxtel?

Ended the interview with "shouldn't that be enough to rub him out for 6 or 7 weeks"...

i reckon we should try gilbert in the midfield and gram and eventually raphael. gilbert is deceptively quick and strong enough to play in and under. also a great tackle. didn't judd go down like a sack of spuds. very good player, gilbert. gram has quick hands and is a top kick. raph could be anythi...

Cousins and Blake was a bad matchup. Blake is more suited to players like Goodes, who he can tag with a similar running speed.

Cousins was going to outrun him all day long.

Hell

Dal Santo's major problem is his failure to get "in and under". Prime example, the ball was there to be won, there was one Saint and one Eagle (I think) on the ground fighting for it, while Dal Santo just stood up and waited. In the end it was a ball up.
