The Blame game
Disappointment and passion often are not a good mix. St.kilda supporters are experts at this mixture and nothing good comes of it. To me as I said post the Hawthorn loss we just are not as good as people believe and again it showed last night. Blaming the coach is the easy thing to do and look how t...

Re: Crowd prediction vs Freo
21k and change.
14 and average weather means a decision about 4pm will be my call.
TV, couch , a glass or 2 of mulled wine and the remote to mute or change channel is sounding appealing tough

Re: Chasing Weitering
We have cap space available so surely the strategy is to target what we need at the top end. One of those things is a top 5 defender in the league. Howard is not that. Do i think he will come NO , but will it mean Carlton will need to overpay to keep him, YES. Similar for McCluggae which then weaken...

Re: wallpaper fallen off - cracks exposed
Aggressive trading to get up in draft - North have no big defenders Howard to north with pick swap in first round ( an example of what we need to do) So we then they have a big defender and we don’t? (I don’t think Cordy really counts: he is a utility player and is a bit shorter than Dougal) I assu...

Re: Do you enjoy supporting the Saints?
I look at it like this following Stkilda is like running a marathon, suffering the pain as the kms get harder and harder, thinking will it ever end, imagining the joy and exhilaration that will be felt when your finish and with 500 metres left... snapping an Achilles collapsing unable to move and f...

Re: Changes for Freo
I think the forwards cop a lot for the appalling delivery they get provided with . King I thought was so much better this week, Membrey is our hit up forward and does the grunt work ( which many ignore) up and back. Hayes was way off , again a victim of the game style perhaps. Hastie looked a step o...

wallpaper fallen off - cracks exposed
I actually think yesterday is a representation of where the list currently sits. It is in a progression stage and progression isn't linear. If you look at the list: 1 -50 games - these guys will be inconsistent and will excite fans with promise. The earlier they show a bit the higher the expectation...

Re: Ins and Outs
Consideration to team balance is important. Especially with Sandy I feel it is more about doing what RL wants to see than being in the best players - e.g. Shoenmaker - heaps of stats but also read needs to improve defending , which if true will be the mark to debut. In : Henry, Dow Out : Hastie (nee...

win banked and move on
I think we all agree Saturday was an odd feeling - got a win , which is a new thing of recent times, however the expectation based more on North's poor performances rather than St Kilda's expected a bigger more dominant win. North have a good midfield and solid ruck, Larky can be good and Sheezel is...

Re: Higgins Alir incident
Saints have said they wont appeal and accepted the decision. What gets me is the person in charge of the tribunal ruled that Higgins had a responsibility to let go of the tackle in the split second the ball is kicked. THE MRO is appalling and the tribunal this year have followed suit with some baffl...

Re: Marshall
Xerri is a good player but any doubt i think Marshall gets a week rest and bring in Campbell. Assuming King comes in for Sharman, then perhaps make a call between Cama and Hayes playing as a forward and back up ruck Why would you drop Camaniti he has been good up forward there is no good reason not...

FFS he was the youngest player in his draft year, and isn't the first player to struggle in their second year. Its not his fault he has been picked at times when performance wasn't great. His form is down and could do with a few weeks in the seconds , and perhaps we may have enough players available...
