Re: SAY WHAT? Jack Steven to leave the Saints?!!

I love Stuv like everyone here BUT the reality is he's either not going to be around or at his best at our next run at finals. I disagree. We'll be playing finals in 2 years. Steven will be a huge part of it. Agree. Look at Nathan Jones at Melbourne. He was the only gun player in a terrible team fo...

Re: I hate Melbourne

and Stonecold hates Petracca, but the Tractor showed a lot of poise early tonight, under pressure. One more thing, Clayton Oliver ran hard straight into Selwood like a steam train, got the ball cleanly and bounced back off him. Would never see Billings show that type of hunger, or Ross, they prefer...

Re: How does Richo turn this around?

Clarko should sit down and teach himself how to coach again. Seriously, it just goes to show what good recruiting can do --- it can even turn Hardwick and Buckley into "great" coaches. They were both nearly out the door. Behind every "great" coach is a great recruiting team. I'm...

Re: Membership Renewal

Please don't cancel your membership. I totally understand the frustration, but there must be a better way to express it than further hurting the club. We need the money to invest in better coaches and better facilities. Why not make a stand at the AGM instead? Also worth noting that even though Rich...

Re: Breaking: Polec offered 800k at 5 years

I'm not sure what you think the club should do? Who the hell are we going to spend the cap on? We haven't got any of the targets we have been after for the past few years, so we are absolutely desperate. If a player will improve the team and isn't too old, I'm all for throwing money at them. We are ...

Re: Anybody worried our club might fold?

I'm not worried in the short term. 10M is not that much and we have an amazing facility to show for it. I'm sure many people will throw in money if it got dire (I would). I am, however, more worried about the long term. I live right near Moorabbin and we had Jade Gresham and Josh Battle visit my kid...

Re: trade/ delist predictions

If we could get a top 15 pick for him, I'd do it. We need outside midfield class and speed. As good as JB is, he's a HFF - they are replaceable. Let's face it, when you take the emotion out of it, the current crop of players have not delivered. Sure, not just the players fault, but our rebuild has ...

Re: Online Petition for Richardson's Resignation

I don't like this. Richo doesn't seem to be the right coach for us, but I don't think he deserves this. Blame the club for not pulling the trigger. Richo has one last shot at it next year with a new team of assistants including the very experienced Brett Ratten. If next year starts like this one, I'...

Dylan Roberton no way. He's 27 and was All Australian last year. Richo said yesterday they think he will be right to go next year.

The rest seem about right.

Re: Jimmy Webster

Watch the game closely people. When he hits a kick well it all looks ok, but he hits 5 to 6 out of 10. Also falls over a lot and gets beaten one on one a lot, and panics with the footy, its like a hot potato in his hands. I do not dispute he has had his best year personally and he is courageous, bu...

He doesn't have the awareness or appear physically capable of playing at this level. Sad, but true. We all want him to succeed but prior to getting injured o...
