Re: What if the AFL enticed us with............?

nope, will never agree or think it is anything but a terrible idea and the death of St Kilda if it moved, just ask the majority of Fitzroy fans if it feels anywhere near the same.

Plenty of clubs stuff up,
All clubs stuff up like that all.

Some off the top of my head:

Richmond
Tambling over Franklin, Chris Yarran

Hawthorn
Mitch Thorpe

Bulldogs
Jarred Grant


The draft is a guess not a guarantee just look at the history of the number one pick.

Re: Xerri delays contract talk

I reckon Xerri will shock the league this year has serious potential to be a great ruckman. Watched all their games this season( praccies as well) for SC reasons, been easily the best of their talls and will likely push goldy out by year end. Makes sense Saints have a habit of trying to lure a youn...

Re: Paddy McCartin a Swan

Not picking Petracca was a colossal f.uck up of the highest order. I read an interesting theory on here or somewhere else. Can’t remember. It went like this, if we got Petracca, we may not have got Max King because we would have been a better team and finished in a slightly higher ladder position. ...

Strange that he only ever had a single 30 or more possession game in his whole career (in 2004 btw).

Re: AFLW Standard

Watching the teams not just St Kilda to me it appears they are not quite comfortable with handling (kicking, handballing ect) a footy it's like watching watch a team of Irish recruits running around good skills and they can be effective just don't quite have a handle on the ball. I think it might co...

Re: Pick swap In 55 out future 4th

I am hoping this is a sign that the club thinks both Windhager and Owens will be available after pick 20, my fear has been the luckless Saints finally get good NGA prospects a year too late (both of whom have been touted in the late teens by various media).

You have to brave enough to give it a go and we know that GT got close last time when he was part of the club.
Some would say he had list to do it easily but him sacking assistants and fitness staff every year threw that out the window
