What will happen when they get caught is a judge will probably say that because their great great great grandparents were given a hard time on the boats bringing out the convicts to Australia they should be shown leniency and should only have to do community work.

Looks fairly good to me, my worry is Gwilt strong enough in contested situations plus would prefer Blake on the half back flank because the odd free kicks he gives away by holding on in marking duels could be more costly close to goals. I still believe Kosi should be given a run on the back line whe...

Sorry i put in my own about Barker and Neil Roberts. I must have missed this one :oops: Crosswell's name is interesting. Is he the only player to ever play in winning premierships twice with two different teams? He was a superb player in finals which i'm sure Trevor would have been also if in a good...

No Barker or Roberts again?

While congratulations to the selections in last night's Hall Of Fame, again the great Trevor Barker plus our wonderful defender Neil Roberts have been snubbed by the selection committee. Both were great servants of the game and I rate Trevor as one of the 6 greatest Saint players I have ever seen. T...

Good idea. Look how some of the Crows forwards were able to take marks in front of a pack so easily. At least Kosi would make them earn them Also he is a good kick with either foot . What have we got to lose, you never know it might be a great move. We all know he can take good high marks and it cou...

Watched Sandy on the TV and was impressed by Gaertner's attack in contested situations, he certainly is worth a try at fullback with the seniors at the moment. Walsh also impresses and although still a little raw will add needed pace and long kicking to the seniors when he gets his chance. I remembe...

He was very ordinary again. In fact 2 of our worst players were at both ends of the ground in Zac and Kosi. What do some people consider is a good game? No way has he been in our top 10 players in any game this year, tonight included. Saint supporters around me tonight kept saying how does he keep g...

If I was talking only about Goddard by himself and not Dal as well then I would not have put do but seeing it's about two players then the spelling and meaning of the word in my heading is right as far as a simple person like me was ever taught :roll:

I appreciate the replies and reasons why but surely someone like a Blake or Fisher are more than capable of kicking to a player on his own say about 30 or 40 metres out from goals? Each has played over 100 games so should know now how to kick to a teammate who is not manned up after a behind is scor...

Why do Goddard and Dal kick out?

Why do we waste 2 of our best attacking players kicking out when a point is scored? I know they are both good kicks but they create so many attacking moves when the ball is in their hands further down the ground plus they also can kick goals when dashing through the centre. Gwilt is a long kick so p...

I am one who has bagged him along with McQualter and Dawson.

He got my third votes today and really there is no rea...

Surely must play again next week plus also Heyne. God they have only had 3 games between them so far and that was a nice mark Heyne took in the last quarter. Big Mac played his best game today.

Hayes 5 Goddard 4 Clarke 3 Dal 2 Joey 1 Easy to pick the first 2, they both played well all day. Clarke was excellent after a slow start, he looks so much better when he doesn't hesitate and plays attacking football.

His worst fault at the moment is looking for someone to pass it to often when he is only about 30 to 40 metres from goals. He should back himself in and start having shots. Twice he turned it over last week with silly little passes when well within kicking range. Well done on his 150th which I would...

Well he won't be outmarked or beaten for pace on the wing for sure. Seems a good idea to me if he is not used on the forward line. Must start getting more games into younger players now for the future Ross.

How many times did Kosi fly against two opponents often bringing the ball to ground. but Milne was never at his feet.
