Why was Nick smiling so much????

Because he knows in 2012 he will get good ball delivery.

In one game last year the young Siposs had three surgical kicks that set Roo up for goal. Importantly they were just all kicks to Roo, but included smart passes fr him to run onto.

With Hayes back, who is smart passer, Siposs and some other changes in the 22 that will favour ball use Roo will IMO be a more effective player in 2012.

With Saad now at the club, I could also envisage Schneider spending more time in the midfield, and Schneider is a very creative player as well.

Ahhh come ON!!! you can't be serious?!!! Surely we need to sack the board immediately! sack Roo for being happy with the prospect of a fresh gameplan!

He is excited about a new direction, clearly after the year Nick has had, he appears to be very happy about a fresh start with a new coach.... It's good to see Nick smiling again, haven't seen much of that over the past 12 months


In Ross Get lost!

I am excited to stay at St Kilda and this is a great result for the Club and all our fans. I’m proud to be part of the Saints and am pleased to be playing football with the Clubâ€

He looks like he let his guard down, without fear of a scolding after :wink:

Nick isn't the only one

Sam Fisher tweeted

"Absolutely rapt to have Scott Watters leading the way for the Saints! @SP_10 couldnt speak highly enough of him so cant wait to meet him!"

So obviously the older blokes, maybe even younger guys were looking for some re invigoration

*SP_10 = Scott Pendlebury

If Nick doesn't take a pay cut, he may not have enough teamates to deliver him the ball.
That might wipe off his smile.

Less than two weeks after he was appointed St Kilda coach, Watters said he had been taken aback at the upbeat nature of his new players.

"I've been really impressed with the optimism of the players. They've been trickling through the office now over that week and a half period and I guess there is a genuine level of opportunity that comes when a change occurs," he said.

"They're looking forward to it, I'm looking forward to working with them. So there are some exciting times ahead

Was smiling because he found out his contract was not performance based,All last season he was scowling coz he thought it was and could not handle the idea of baked beans and toast!


Riewoldt and Goddard to live up to their reputations ,Clarke and Ray to defy theirs in 2012!
