yep but the thing is ross wont drop dempster Nor should he. Dempster's the best option we've got for players like Farmer. Agree - nor should he. Dempster has had a really good year. One average game last night - he had plenty of company. The other guys you mention and inclusions I;d probably go alo...

Blues did to Port what I was expecting us to do to them last week. An eleven goal defeat in which the Blues kicked 24 points also. We crawled over the line against the same side. Based on that form, even an undermanned and out-of-form Collingwood would thrash us. I am still hopeful that the form we ...

I reckon maybe so. And you haven;t mentioned the vibe/confidence of the team changing. That is the X factor. Was there a quantum shift in the team's psyche in the last half of the match? Time will tell. My gut feel says there was.

Oh, and Dempster has been better than okay.

I've given him a vote or two in the Saintsational medal a couple of times this year. 3 or 4 one percenters against Freo that saved goals. Does some great work in packs and the commentaors don't mention him cos they are so much more familiar with others. Was good again last night. I laugh when people...

I'm afraid that Connor is 95% his mother and won't necessarily be any good at footy. The one who takes after Banger is the youngest daughter. Expect to see her in the Aus women's hockey team or somesuch at the 2020 games.

I have thought for a while that it would be good if WOM and Saintsational could be combined. I see essentially a WOM start page at the Saintsational domain name, perhaps with latest forum posts embedded in some portion of the screen, and click thru to the full blown forum. Sounds like Battye is sugg...

I am surprised that nearly every poster proposing changes for this week is dropping Charlie and that the general sentiment always is that he is not up to much. He had little impact and made a few errors last week so, yes, a bad game. But prior to that I thought he had been really good. What's with d...

Very negative posts on here so far, to be expected I guess. I thought it was the most encouraging effort this season. Up against one of the best 5 or 6 teams who generally had the rub of the green, took their chances, nailed arsey shots etc We muffed too many shots that should have been goals. A cou...

St Kilda honours the ANZACS Lest We Forget Picture of a slouch hat with Rising Sun Badge attached in prominent position on Banner This should be the only week when the message is NOT football related !! I like it, but ANZAC day is about honoring all war veterans, and ANZACs are a specific subset of...

Normally I would agree, but with the draw we have got coming up over the next few weeks. I would have taken one more ugly win.

lack of intensity and fitness is what did us in.
