VERY IMPORTANT MESSAGE NEED STKLDA ADMIN/COACHES TO SEE THIS

Post: # 1705581Post SMS »

UPDATE: Bonars knees are too much of an issue. Completely off him, especially at 7, 8

With more research and talking to many - BRAYSHAW and HIGGINS. 2 Classy skilled SMART footballers. Cerra YES. Not as down on stephenson as I was BUT I still believe BRYAHSAW and HIGGINS are the best "footy" players in the draft and we can get both of em. Gresham ready for Midfield, Lonie Questionable, Monty gone and Minch hasnt yet cemented. Higgins is Gresham mk2. Imagine 2 greshams swapping Mid to forward???


Watch this. Gun. Every disposal is perfeftion, hes in and under, marks well goal kicker. I want 2 Greshs please. Higgins is also an amazing trainer and hard worker. FFS come on Saints get HIGGINS


















SOMEONE HERE NEEDS TO POINT OUT THE OBVIOUS TO OUR COACHES AS THEY SEEM TO STUFF IT UP. We are the worst in the comp
SO LISTEN UP FFS
Stephenson and Constable are woeful and will not make it in the AFL. Choosing either of them is wasting pick and throwing away flag chance with this young group
WE MUST CHOOSE THE FOLLOWING IN ORDER

8 PLAYERS - CANNOT LOSE
LDU, Raynor, Dow - slider wont happen but be prepared
Cerra
Brayshaw
Coffield
Higgins
Bonar

Its that simple. 8 players in order.
8 classy skilled midfielders

GET IT DONE SAINTS FFS.
2 classy mids.
Dont worry about anything else.
Do not stuff this up with being sucked into stephenson the fiora/sam gilbert love child or the vanilla no kicking no sprinting constanble. Dont be like stkilda and choose em just dont fing do it. Im sick of it.

I should I really should.

Seriously if these dum asses pick up stephenson then why not? They obviualy dont understand football and are falling for the biggest most obvious trick in the book.

I will spew up if we take anyone but those 8 players with 7,8 with an exception of H.Clarke

Maybe only one of the picks you mention will succeed at senior level..maybe none of them will, and a player beyond pick 30 might be a star. I expect the St Kilda coaches and admin staff are now confused.

I don't rate Clarke very highly, and I would also like north to pick Stephenson at 4 so that we don't take him because I also don't think he is gonna be that great.

Would love any of your first 6, still iffy on Bonar, and I don't see the need for Higgins when we have the Gresh

Not going to lie, I some what agree with the post. Maybe not as aggressively as you SMS, but agree.
I am really hoping that Stephenson and Naughton have already been grabbed by pick 7, just so we have no temptation to get them.
The only one on your list I don’t really want is Higgins. I wouldn’t be that disappointed, just prefer the rest of the list. His first name is a big plus though.

So anyone here can they take this to the elshung?? Its clear who we should pick. Very clear. I am sonscared they gonna f*** this up. Very important draft. 2 classy mids means come 2020 with free agents added we will be flag material. And flag material for most of the 20s. Getting stephenson or constable ruins everything.

Sorry but can you explain to us why your opinion in your mind, is better than anyone's at the club.
Do you attend u18's every week / TAC and know each player inside and out, hence your opinion, or is it just based on videos posted and forums you've read on every player?

Genuine question.

LDU will be the best from the draft. But he’ll be well gone by our pick & likely goes 1.

Bonar will be the second best from the draft. With him coming back off 2 x ACL’s we have the opportunity to select him as he will likely be available.

Trout, get Bonar, don’t stuff up!

Yes. SMS.. have you seen Stephenson play live?
How many games have you seen on TV?

Or is this from highlights packages?

Surely the recruiters will know more than you?

Oh please !!! All of these armchair experts who can make anonymous, unresearched statements from the comfort of home without the fear of any consequences. It would be very satisfying to see you squirm when you were forced to stand by and justify your pontifications.

Honestly, you wouldn't have a clue. :roll:

Why bother posting. Just write to them. I hope they don't have the time to waste reading the stuff on here.

SMS should replace Bains.

passion is required to move up the ladder.

A bit of skill and experience doesn't really cut it,
just need to be passionate


2020 was an aberration, when we travelled twice to Adelaide and won both, beat Tigers early, beat our bogey Swans. 2021 we've returned to our old ways. Damn

Pretty sure the very expierenced and well staffed recruiting team at the Saints is all over the draft. I have full confidence they will make the best calls on pick 7 and 8 based on all their data, research, interviews, watching games, etc. It is their full time jobs after all.

In this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death, taxes and the St Kilda FC

I know we get all ages on the General Forum,
so I can't help but think that SMS might be about 12 years of age?

SMS, it really concerns me that you are stressing out that the club might draft Stephenson and Constable. No one outside the inner circle, I hope, knows what we have targeted for 7 and 8. Even if we know that; what really will happen depends on selections 1 to 6.

For you to be so concerned, do you know what the rest of us do not? If so share.

See this is the problem. All these interviews and tests and psychology BS!!!

It takes the very obvious choice and greys it SO then we become confused and pick the footballer with less skill and ablity. Stephenson cant field kick to save himself he is NOT natural and never will be. Thats my main concern. But also he doesnt mark meaning his coordination is questionable. The speed of afl will make that worse not to mention everything ese. The ones I want are natural, skilled - class. Look at the way they handle the ball make decisions.

Constable doesnt kick. No way is constable better than coffield. The poise and decisions and ball use from coffield is all class.

Anyway im trying to say STOP with the over complicating and pick the best footy player.

I will spew up SPEW UP if we get stephenson or constable.

And FWIW Long better come good cause not picking Bolton instead is looking bloody ridiculous
