There is a bloke named Jarryd Alen that was pretty good up forward too. As soon as he comes back from injury he may also have a claim on a spot up forward.

Will certaily listen in. Works out great in London. In bed about 6 in the morning. Always a good call. Keep it up!

Great memories of the Buskers before and after the games. Even though I can't help much from London I hope you are able to stay put. Your website isn't working yet so can't add my support but I am sure that the Saints supporters there will help out.

What a missed opportunity to bring in Ross Tungatalum That would have been fantastic..he will be one of the great goal sneaks ever if he can add some muscle to that frame.

Just on the Max vs Zac debate... Zac really has impressed and seems to be getting better with every game as he builds confidence. I might be persuaded that Zac move up forward as a third tall, or swing Gilbo up forward and have Max come in. Zac was playing FF for the Haks reserve team, and does seem...

Playing the Doggies will be yet another big test. I expect we will be without Kosi and King, both automatic selections if available, but in their absence and if he has a respectable game in the VFL, then McEvoy should come in. Keep an eye on the game on Sunday and if McEvoy is pulled from the game a...

Just hope that everyone doesn't get too excited but all this as the season is way too young. That said, in 2007 when the Cats were so dominant, their VFL side was also super dominant, so this strength at Sandy cannot be a bad thing for us.

Thanks for the info. Very poor coverage from Setanta in London with only 2 games a week this year so I am hoping that I can get some more coverage off the net. After this weekends performance the Saints may be better than I hoped for in '09.. here's hoping

As long as the G train turns up I don't mind who else doesn't show

It worries me that during the draft we went for so many defenders. I'd say the club is very worried that Goose may not be able to get back on the ground. Would be a great shame as he really is a game maker and was very close to being an AA

I did a transfer last night so it should be in the account tomorrow. Cheers

I'm good for 4 shares..but here's hoping we sponsor Jack Stevens..future gun!

What would you know I wil be in Devon at a wedding. However will be looking for a London pub for the next Saints game whenever it is played!

Unfortunately it looks like Ball will not be ready. Obvious change is X in for Dempster. Depending on injuries and recovery Allen may get a run as well.

Heck, we do look a bit short up front now.... :? ST KILDA B: Gwilt, Hudghton, Dempster HB: Goddard, S.Fisher, Gram C: Dal Santo, Ball, Montagna HF: Schneider, Gardiner, Harvey F: Milne, Riewoldt, Jones FOLL: Gardiner, Hayes, Blake I/C: Geary, Gilbert, King, McQualter Would expect the two rucks to r...

And have also heard they may elevate Eddy to replace Conners this week.

Hadn't heard that EJ has a long term injury?

Our midfield is comprised of good players, but they never seem to all turn it on together...against weaker teams its passable for Dal and Montagna to dominate and Ball and Hayes to be a bit quiet, but against good opponents that costs us the match...we need to return to hunting in packs mentality t...

If anyone comes in I'd like to hear who would be dropped. IMO if CJ comes in a very hard ecision on which mid goes out. If Charlie comes in then again a hard decision on which forward to drop. If Ferg comes in then you would have to say that Raph or Blake are on shaky ground.

5 - X Clarke ( Broke open the game often)
4 - S Fisher ( AA performance again )
3 - M Gardiner ( Improving every game )
2 - M Hughston ( After 1st Qtr annhihalated Fev )
1 - L Fisher ( did his job well)

L Hayes just missed due to poor 1st Qtr

really good problem to have, would rather see BJ play on a wing then down back, has been playing as a ruck rover for the scorps and there is no reason why he can't be a damaging winger who floats back into defence. not sure who to drop from the team but I would lean towards dropping king, play kosi...

5 - L Fisher - did what was asked of him
4 - S Fisher - when needed was a rock in defense
3 - X Clarke - Gave run and took the hits
2 - M Gardiner - Showed why he will be our #1 ruck
1 - Roo - kept leading

Sammy Hammil gave him 2 votes on MMM (he gave Max the 3)

Correction. Hamill gave Fish BOG and gave 2 points to Max, Great game Leigh

I think we have room for other people to post about Saints Blogs.. I am all for diversity as long as its for the Sainters

Free Plugger66. He needs a second chance (in this case a third ) to stay in the forum. He may be a strong headed SOB but he's usually on the money and only gives it out to those he get's it from.

Watched the replay on Fox Footy today and have to give credit to Eljay Connors. Guess who was in the pack that created the spillage so Steven could kick the goal? Yep the skinniest bloke on the park, and although he didn't have a huge impact on the game at least he stood his ground when the ball wa...
