Going down for a butchers hook on Sunday Caminiti McConnell Sharman Heath McLennan Campbell Allison Schoenmaker Phillipou Cordy Keeler Dow Byrnes Clark Collard Jones That’s 16 Sainters Well, there’s a few spots up for grabs, that’s for sure. Looking forward to your run down on how they went.

Dow, Jones, Sharman ... all in Hastie Garcia Membrey ... out Sharman to play forward and fkn leave him there ... can't be any worse than Membrey was today The other 2 changes are no brainers for midfield grunt Yes I think we can put a line through finals now, so it’s time to start working on the ar...

Get him off the last line. Put Owens deep. We are just lazily bombing it in there.

Club should ask for a please explain - nicely and behind the scenes - but I expect it won’t. Those suspensions potentially cost us premiership points.

Nic Newman chooses to bump high contact clear to play with a fine

Some clubs are more equal than others.

Would’ve liked to have seen Dow make his club debut but I guess that will come soon enough.

Better to run him into form at St Kilda than Sandringham.

Agree. Our clearance midfield needs work. Some break-away speed would be a start.

Euro-woke.

Please explain Pauline, Libratore gets a week for sling tackle. Can serve it while sidelined with concussion protocol. Actual penalty for sling tackle? SFA. What gives? the penalty you give when it's not a penalty. I presume Will Day wasn’t concussed, hence one week for Libba and Aliir was, hence t...

And Darcy Wilson eight votes. Well deserved by both

Liberatore should get at least a week for his ugly and dangerous sling tackle on Will Day. If there is a concussion involved it’s got to be three weeks or St Kilda has been ripped off … again.

Clark knee worry I hear. I hope nothing serious

I have no doubt king can play He’s skilled by hand with good second efforts, moves well for a bloke his size But just doesn’t seem slot in as a ff atm Who knows he may improve in this area but atm struggling Must be moved up the grd I agree with that. Start him at the old CHF, not on the last line....

Is Darcy a possible clearance midfielder down the track? Big and strong enough? What do people think is his career trajectory?

He could play as a small/medium forward, sure, but he’s far too valuable as part of our struggling and below average midfield

Needed a run and must learn how to deal with a big grappling opponent. Needs to move around more and lead.

Who ran through him? Presume he was merely winded and no concussion involved, but it seemed as if the Norf guy lined him up

Like the changes. Couple of key guys back. Let’s hope it’s the beginning of a turnaround in our fortunes

We need to find an elite midfielder and we need to find out if Owens is it. Concerns over his tank can be the only explanation why he’s not in the starting midfield. Owens is a guy too focussed on winning his own ball ( because...that's what he does :idea:) https://www.saintsational.net/viewtopic.p...

Disgusting by the AFL, but what do you expect … it’s only St Kilda

If he’s fit, play him. We’ve missed him.
