Far from Kosi's worst tonight. On that effort you'd play him every time. Still not getting enough time in the ruck for my liking.

Jason Gram (St Kilda) reported in the first quarter for high contact on Cruize Garlett.

I've just returned from the game and didn't notice the incident at the time.

Anyone with benefit of TV replay care to fill me in?

Anyone else like him? I have seen 4 x Zebs matches this year and he has been excellent in all. Not surprised to see him in the best again from this weekend. I reckon he is a good thing to get picked up by next year by an AFL club seeking to unearth the next Barlow. I think he could be good midfield ...

It is worth watching the last quarter v Hawks again and keeping your eye on Dempster. He played a huge part in getting the Saints back into the match.

Yes.

From club email:

"Names synomonous with Saints Footy, including Hayes, Dal Santo, Gram, Goddard, Montagna, Koschitzke, Baker, Blake, Schneider and Gwilt, have all re-signed with the Club."

Lets see... * Blues underachieving... * Ratten has had a fair crack.... * Mrs Pratt is still tipping in megabucks..... Who do you think the Blues would target as their next coach? * Favourite son * Someone who has been assistant to a top club for a while Wonder who that may be????????????????? Yes,...

Gotta say that is my general sense of it too: Hawks peaking, Saints building.

I am with you guys. Been happy to stick with him till now. A couple of very, very average efforts in the first quarter tonight. I would support the inclusion of Geary ahead of him for next week. Not that Geary is great defensively, but McQ has tailed off in that dept. And Geary has more going for hi...

I am with you Elvis Lives - figured this was going to be a thread lauding Zac for his best game in 12 months. Was excellent tonight. I just wonder if some folks actually watch the game before posting complete BS.

Relentless pressure the whole day. Numbers to every contest backed up with streams of runners to space when they won the ball, or back onto our men when they didn't. I saw the Saints put strings of 8 handballs together that would normally have alleviated the pressure and cleared the ball, but today ...

I doubt Lovett would have settled for $300k at this stage. My guess is $500k. At that price both parties could walk away and think they could have done worse.

This: http://www.saintsational.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=60387 Interesting. Do we know how the SS Board's votes tallied against the Official B & F last year? From memory the official was Riewoldt, Goddard, Montagna. Or was Monty ahead of BJ? I bet you are going to tell me Lenny was 2 in the SS ...

I would have thought BJ well clear, and perhaps Montagna and Hayes in 2 and 3.

37. Always followed the underdog. Saints were last on the ladder when it came time for me to pick a team (late 1977)

We all know he is a great player whether he plays back, mid or forward. The back, mid and forwards coaches all want him and he has been getting shared around like a bong at a campfire. The majority of us would probably say his optimal position for the team in a perfect world is across half-back sett...

I for one am just a tad disappointed in where we are at the moment. Last season really could not have been much better (as far as value for a home & away membership goes), and there is plenty of promise ahead. But this seems only to have translated into a slight increase over and above the incre...
