Re: Saints gws match thread

Id have rocked up but it's a bastard of a trip from Oregon.

Seriously great win from the side. The future on display and Roo playing out of his skin again. Fairly weak opposition in fairness but the season doesn't look so bleak after all

Re: We basically won that game

We had 21 new faces and a lot if them were kids so all in all a very good hit out. Save for a very very slow start which is a bit of a concern since we started some games pretty slowly last year. Yes we will struggle this year however the signs look positive. As we all know preseason is not really t...

Re: We are expected to finsh bottom this year!

U don't know who the coach is? How does Richo count as "a respected coach who knows his stuff tactically and can get the goods from young players"? He's been in the club for about fifteen minutes and hasn't coached a game yet. I loved Watters for most of his tenure, but he turned out to b...

Re: We are expected to finsh bottom this year!

I really don't think we are as bad as a lot of people I(our own included) reckon we are. Brisbane will slide, GWS will still be easy beats, Melbourne will win a few more games but they're a few years off being finals contenders again (if they make it that far), I still don't think the Dogs are any g...

Re: Boof Richardson

Looking at the Colorado videos online, hearing the players talk and watching other footage I can almost feel the optimism and belief within the boys. Not uncommon with a new coach coming in and a new season on the horizon but it seems the players are a lot more upbeat that i've seen them for a while...

Re: New Jumper Numbers Awarded

Savage #5 - I can defiantly see why they chose to give the famous number to an established player. He did ask for it and I hope he will play a ton of great games in it for us Billings #15 - A pretty well known number that has bounced around a little bit over the last few years. Good choice and going...

Re: Adam Schneider burns BJ = Classic

I for one and loving the videos the Saints are putting up showing the hard yards they are doing over in Boulder. This one was a little less interesting. 99% of Yanks have bugger all idea what footy is and couldn't care less. I do get a few odd looks when I wear my Saints stuff around but that's abou...

I hope the Gilbo kicks on next season and becomes and out and out star.

Could easily play 8 or 9 different positions with his height and speed. Hopefully Richo can get him as focused as possible.

Re: Campbell Brown - Gold Coast, Glass Jaw

Can't wait to read the articles saying Gold Coast is a rabble of a club, imploding, players hate the coach, crisis ect ect that they would be bringing out if it was, for example, Geary that broke TDL's jaw.

Ridiculous way to conduct himself. Acted like my 13 year old step son when he is told to go to turn off his video games and go to bed. Should have taken his disappointment like a man but instead he decided to make a total ass of himself in the newspaper. Really dumb move if he ever hopes to get a jo...

Re: Eli Templeton (Rookie - Pick #3)

Based on the highlights package and the profile he should hopefully be able to jump onto the senior list in a year or 2 having honed his body and skills a bit at VFL level. The fact he's played seniors at Bernie should help him a bit.

Looks like a good get

Re: Colorado trips -any value?

The altitude training is reported to be very beneficial. The camps serve as a great binding experience for the players, and in this case the new coach, and the chance to get out of Melbourne and be virtually anonymous. I have emailed the club to suggest they visit the University of Oregon up near wh...

Krotch is was and always will be a big mouthed, grandstanding, petulant, childish, know nothing, arrogant, selfish flog who is in way over his head. Loves the sound of his own voice way too much.

Re: On Hindsight it’s staggering

Richo looked like a bloke who really wanted to go and meet his players and get to work.

The way he spoke was not going to win any awards but what he spoke about impressed me a lot. He can stumble and murmur and mutter through pressers if he likes as long as the content is good im happy.
