Reckon the Saints could do with saintbrat in the mid field.......... she gets in and gets the goodies quickly and disposes off to the Saintsational team very smartly. Never known her to fumble or miss the target

[magnifisaint]

She loves the grunt work

Shes a great link player!
She owns the corridor.

Roberton is going to be an absolute GUN.

194cm. Just finished growing. Give him a 2 years to grow into his height and we are looking at an AA standard player.

IMO Roo aside he would be the closest thing to AA out of anyone from Saints...

He's been a gun for us, and should be 2nd or 3rd in the BnF

Sounds plausible. Top 4: Riewoldt, Steven, Roberton, Montagna.

What about Geary?

In a battle with Benny Mac for 5th spot !!

Id say

1.Roo
2.Steven
3. Roberton
4. Montagna
5. Geary
6. Armo

7. Macca

[spert]

Here's my pecking order- Roo, Roberton, small gap, Montagna, small gap, Steven..gap Macca ,Geary. Can't fit Armo in there- too inconsistent and not doing enough. Apart from Roo, Roberton, Montagna and possibly Steven, just not enough hard work going on with too many players

Does anyone know Robertons contract situation?

Im guessing we will extend his contract during the Bye.

Why?

Why?

Because I was under the impression he is only on a 1 year contract.

Sometimes clubs like to put out something positive over the bye. Good marketing and all that.

[paddy]

he certainly is a laid back character....

was very comfortable chatting the the boys.... he is a good looking lad, might have a career in broadcasting too..

[dragit]

I'm a fan but... If he is in our top 3 players, it says to that me our list is in really bad condition, which I guess 2 - 8 also says...

Yep. And he is only 21 and still improving.

He shouldnt be our 3rd best player already.

Man we need to find about 5 good players.

Remember that he's playing exceptionally well, in a position which we lost our best player of that type last year (Goddard) another who'd been around for years (Gram), the current one is injured (Gilbert) whilst the other two are coming back from injury (Gwilt) and/or still currently hampered (Fisher). The others in a similar role this year are Wright, Newnes and Webster. All 19 or 20. All of which occurring in a side that is currently struggling.

I think it's great that he's come in, asserted himself in this position and seemingly taken a leadership role in the back half. Will be a beauty for us, I am certain.
