Re: Battle harded Brad has settled in at Moorabbin where he is appreciated
Didn't get enough credit here I thought. Slow start but he really started to grind out consistent performances and felt like part of the furniture by year's end.
I think he can improve next year as well.

This was my father's belief
And this is also mine:
Let the corn be all one sheaf--
And the grapes be all one vine,
Ere our children's teeth are set on edge
By bitter bread and wine.

His brother has re-signed with the Crows. Tested the market but no takers. Signed for less money as well.

Yep he was under appreciated at times, but he had a really consistent year. He has been another good pick up by the club.

I didn't realise Brad is from Ballarat, the Saints still like their Ballarat players. Another Gary Lofts.
The Saints are under review, will it make any difference to the underachievers ?

Irony is applauding a recent arrival as 'battle hardened' while letting go of a valued 56 gamer who's been a Saint since 2016 draft...named 'Battle'

Re: Battle harded Brad has settled in at Moorabbin where he is appreciated
Crouch seems to get the ball under pressure and if no handpass option is quickly evident, he boots wildly a la Tim Watson's cousin.
Maybe we need new tactics where our guys learn to be ready outside to receive, in a predetermined spot.
Rehearse this at training so he knows where 1st option is.
Just an uninformed opinion from the cheap seats

Can Rowan Marshall play CHB and King CHF, a young Anthony Lockett would be saintsational.

He hasn't gone yet. And probably won't. There is a lot of posturing at this time of year. Billings was going and now the strong mail is he is staying.WellardSaint wrote: ↑Mon 06 Sep 2021 6:38pm Irony is applauding a recent arrival as 'battle hardened' while letting go of a valued 56 gamer who's been a Saint since 2016 draft...named 'Battle'

I don't believe Billings was ever going. Just wistful thinking by some, particularly on this forum.damienc wrote: ↑Tue 07 Sep 2021 3:03pmHe hasn't gone yet. And probably won't.
