For me it's gotta be Paton or Coffield.
For me it’s Paton or Stocker

Re: Keep Coffield

After already being moved from the wing, Ross has said they think NWM is a HBF. Coffield doesn’t move anywhere like Nasish. If he does well at another club, it will most likely be in a Saint’s position that’s already been filled. I.e. surplus to requirements. Similar to the Nick Hind scenario? Much...

Re: Keep Coffield

Who said this? “I feel like my best footy in the long run will be in the midfield, but I might just have to bide my time and play in another position to get senior experience until one day hopefully a door opens up or I’m good enough to get a game in there full time.” Nick Coffield https://www.foxs...

Re: Keep Coffield

Who is Coffield going to replace in our team? ..... He's not competing with Webster, Stocker, Paton as the lockdown small defender. .... Turning circles into squares - not "lockdown small defenders". More importantly, potentially a better player than all three ...IMO Yes, naturally a bett...

Re: No trades with swans

IIRC, it wasn't our choice for Plugger to leave. It was entirely his (or his manager Hession). He was on his way to Collingwood until one of their board members decided he would rather have his son playing in the team than Plugger. Then someone at AFL/VFL House decided it might be a good idea to get...

Re: Cordy or Dougs

Big Max comes in for Hayes. Suggest Battle comes back into the team, so who misses out? And if Seb Ross is fit? Suggest Byrnes makes way? The backup ruckman concerns me, I'm not a fan of using Owens in the ruck, especially in September finals. Battle was concussed and subbed out of the last game, s...

Re: EX-SAINTS OF THE LAST DECADE AT OTHER CLUBS

Agree with most. Stanley was a mistake - never really tried as a ruck properly at Stkilda. Made worse drafting Goddard at 21 who didn't work out at all. Names such as Steele, Touk Miller, Maynard, Mitch McGovern, Dougal Howard, Langdon drafted afterwards doesnt help - also that stanley is now a Pre...

Re: Free Kick Differential for 2023 H&A Season ...... well, well, well!!!!!!

The funny part is the negative free kick ratio last year was proof the umps were cheating against us. Now that ratio is positive and we are the ALF's biggest beneficiary, the stat is no longer posted on a weekly basis or relevant, yet some supporters still bitch and moan. How good do we want it bef...

Re: Free Kick Differential for 2023 H&A Season ...... well, well, well!!!!!!

It would be interesting to see some other statistics :- How we rank in most tackles laid? Is there a correlation between tackling and getting/giving frees? What area of the ground we were penalised? What areas of the ground we received frees? How many frees we gave/received for deliberate oob? How m...

Re: Billings ready to go.

So it looks like Billings is on his way. Will he join the Saints hall of fame list of players whom we let go and who went on to win a premiership medallion at another club? The only way he is leaving is if we let him - he's contracted for another year. Much like Hunter Clark last year - if someone ...

Re: Billings ready to go.

Would people consider trading him to GC for a guy like Mabiour Choi (or however it’s spelt). GC have suggested he’s on the table. Big unit, kicks goals, could pinch hit in the ruck as he has a decent leap. Have no idea what his value is Is Chol any upgrade on Jack Hayes? That’s a good point actuall...
